Giving them your genetic data was fine, but your birthday was too much?

No, The OneNote UWP app is going away (“OneNote for Windows 10”), OneNote itself is still a part of office & still maintained

Yeah but it’d be kinda weird if the demo said “Idk man Toastify is aight I guess”

Modern voicemail isn’t done on device like it was with an answering machine. Instead of your machine picking up, your telecom provider does, so you’re no longer actually receiving a call, they are. Theoretically you could have it pick up a ring before your telecom does, but then you’d have 2 mailboxes and if you’re offline the call would go to your provider’s box.

This is even the case for landlines nowadays. I had to setup a new phone for a lady and Comcast was snagging the call before her machine would. Had to change it to pickup before they did.

I want to agree with all of this, but now I think it’s just a ploy to get me to switch to AMERICAS FASTEST 5G NETWORK

My server is still called driveway because the install originated in an HP laptop a customer ran over with their car. Motherboard still worked though!

FYI an MBR table with a fat32 partition is probably what it was looking for. If that doesn’t work odds are the port is broken

This does appear to matter. On Firefox latest version seems to still be 2024.12.4

Ugh flightradar24 is a hit. Really??

And make sure they know exactly why you left

There’s an Android TV version in there as well (ik the article says Fire TV)

I use this and ATVLauncher Pro

Notably in the release from GitHub, not from Play

Important to note this is cloudflare, their hosting provider, and not apkmirror making this decision.

Not saying they wouldn’t do so if cloudflare wasn’t already

I got my entire Snapchat gc (15 people) and a little more to switch. The key isn’t dropping an announcement of “hey I’m moving”, you talk to each person individually; starting with the most likely to switch. Then go up the line, share who you’ve already got to join if you’re met with resistance. if you save the most difficult people for last, telling them almost everyone else is already there is usually enough.

If someone along the way has refused to move for the time being, you can revisit them later after you’ve got more people to move. I didn’t 100% nail my judgement of who would and who wouldn’t, but I was able to go back and revisit those who didn’t.

If you can, reach out to people in person; I got a few this way. You have to express that you will not be accessible otherwise and will only be present on signal moving forward. It helps if you have a reputation for following through :3

Likely not everyone is going to move over. I’ve accepted that there’s some people I probably won’t end up talking to ever again. I’ve got my main group over, the ones that actually respect that I want more security (and less clown-show shit that Snapchat has)

Human nature wants to stay put, you have to have some strategy or it won’t work.

Also a lot of people are pissed at Meta for lobbying for TikTok’s ban. Use that with the relevant people, if applicable

#1 Reason I still root is for adaway #2 reason is spite because Google thinks they own my phone

A fine addition to my collection

Not OP, but I believe he means he restricted outside internet access to that device (restricted communications to the thermostats MAC address to other internal devices)

LG and Samsung TVs were already on my “do-not-buy” list with their ad ridden UIs, sounds like they’re just getting worse. Only a matter of time before they require you to connect them to the Internet to use them

I’ve had my eye on this for a while, haven’t dropped the dough on a PCB order

https://github.com/justLV/onju-voice

A hackable AI home assistant platform using the Google Nest Mini (2nd gen) form factor, consisting of:

a custom PCB designed to be a drop-in replacement to the original, using the ESP32-S3 for audio processing

a server for handling the transcription, response generation and Text-to-Speech from multiple devices on the same network

I’m still quite excited for matrix as well, but it’s nowhere near the polish of Signal ATM and it’s not something I’d want to be tech support for 15-ish people on
