I mean, jellyfin is absolutely even.more of a security nightmare than Plex, with multiple unfixed CVEs IIRC (software, not website or forum)
I use jellyfin also, but I only trust it not exposed to the internet at all. That is one very big area of improvement for them.
That and subtitle syncing.
I was already a long time KISS launcher user after the sale (long time nova user)
Recently discovered Kvaesitso and I have fully switched! It is just a bit more featureful than KISS while still being very clean and now when people use my phone for something, they can actually find apps too which is nice.
That is pretty expensive nowadays, if OP wants to go that expensive, getting a mini PC with the latest intel N150. The pi 5 doesn’t even have hardware AV1 decoding. By the time you have all of the pi accessories, it is not much of a price difference, but defi itely a performance difference.
Plus you get benefits like actual storage instead of a separately bought SD card, more RAM, 2.5G ethernet, and HDMI2.1 & USB–C displayport.
Then you slap Linux on it (and also hope that plasma bigscreen is a success in the near future) and you have a very reliable 4K HTPC that can decode anything you throw at it. It has enough horsepower to be a home server at the same time, unlike a pi while also having just a bit higher idle power usage (2W or so).
And I still can only get 0 like, 0 comment shaky cam video of a screen capture of ultra zoomed in tiktoks or blasting shitty electronika music at 100dB clipping all to hell with 2005 era Microsoft visualizer videos.
Just like pixelfed, there is no way to discover anyone except the same 10-12 rotation of people they put in explore.
I come back every month or two and swipe through 5-10 to see if anything has changed, but it never has. In the case of loops, the same number of creators, some of which haven’t posted a video for almost 8 months are “trending”? Maybe that is where the “active users” number comes from?
Except that proton released their LLM AI so maybe they will start doing that?
People haven’t caught on to the grift yet. One of the people in the committee who runs the tariff decisions literally runs a financial/law institution that since the tariffs started, has been contracting with companies to pay a portions (10, 20, 40%) of the tariffs to “ease the load on the companies” but they retain the rights, in the case of what is going on i.e. tariffs being recalled and paid back, to take 100% of the tariff payback.
So a government official is steering the tariff policy to essentially steal money from companies with some alight risk of the tariffs not getting overturned. Crazy grift.
Is this similar to Wero as a back end or different parts of the process?
Everyone will claim it is the hardware, but we can see from cheap phones that a majority of people actually get outside of the US that it doesn’t matter as much.
It was never a complete phone after 5 years. It never had the software to actually use it as a daily driver. Calling still “doesn’t work all the time” according to users and similar with texting. If your phone literally can’t be trusted to make a simple call and receive a text out of the box, then it won’t be bought to be used as a normal phone. That’s as simple as it gets.
It has just been relegated to being a fun side experimental phone for enthusiasts, but you can’t have a company-carrying product like that because the consumer base is too small to fund the software development.
They also specifically say
While in the future the PinePhone Pro will be able to serve as your daily-driver smartphone, at present the PinePhone Pro should be considered a development platform.
On the store, which further discourages consumers.
Building a smartphone OS and all the features needed is an extremely expensive task, so it is completely understandable that it has gone at a snails pace.
Stress is literally a giant guess.
It is the exact same “technology” that mood rings work off of. Essentially a wild guess based off of skin temperature.
There are many biological things we can measure. One smart watch is even getting FDA approval for blood pressure monitoring by the time difference between the electrical and pressure wave, cool stuff.
But instead, smart watch providers push complete bullshit wild guesswork “features” in order to gamify yourself like a tomogachi
The xperia 5ii doesn’t have wireless charging, so no.
3.5 years almost with the Xperia 5ii. Tried between 20 and 80 but for the last year, the battery life was so bad that now it is between 10 and 80 while barely using it. AVG battery SoT discharge rate is 18%/hr according to accubattery. When I got it, it was around 9%. The killer is screen off time which is 2.6%/ hour, over double what it was originally.
Accubattery has been tracking through the phone’s entire life and says it is at 70% or so now. Almost 9% per year loss.
Xperias must have super cheap bad batteries because my girlfriend’s A52 (a much cheaper phone) purchased at the exact same time, used much more often, and charged to 100% still lasts 1-2 days easily and the battery capacity is at 85% or so. But maybe if I charged to 100%, the battery life would be at 50% of so with the quality of the battery.
32 bit embedded processors us a lot of 32 bit time, though i am not sure if date time libraries in SDKs have been updated to use 64 bit for time.
I don’t think I will buy another Nintendo console ever (unless they turn around) and will only buy 2nd hand games so Nintendo doesn’t get any money.
The sad thing is that Nintendo does make very good games and some of the only great party games left with a low skill entry level
A Volkswagen id4 was the best choice I had from work (Belgian companies give company cars for personal use as perks because of tax benefits).
I completely disagreed to all terms involving internet access in the vehicle, but I have no doubt they are tracking me without my consent too…
It works well.
I have done the same thing with custom hardware, ESPHome, and routed the output to my old Yamaha AV receiver with an IR blaster in the device for auto source switching and volume control.
I can’t wait for music assistant to integrate Spotify connect because right now you can only play saved playlist/albums or some recent music, no browsing.
A media player component plus microphone plus voice assistant.
Depends on the device.
If it is AC powered, it acts as a repeater. If it is battery powered, it is only a node, not a repeater.
KNX is indeed a protocol, but there is a whole multi - manufacturer ecosystem around it. It is mostly used in the commercial space. It is literally the ultimate smart electricity ecosystem for reliability.
Everything that I did is done in the electrical box so you buy traditional push button switches for the walls with very thin, cheap cable, and then your lights as normal.
It is wired originally with twisted pair bus that delivers power and data. They branched out also into wireless products also now using 898MHz bands (same as zwave).
The protocol is very tightly regulated but everything is guaranteed to work. It isn’t wireless so it doesn’t have shitty mesh problems like zwave and ZigBee have with many devices. You don’t get bad device behaviors and disconnects with power outages. There are no shitty batteries to replace (and no fibaro zwave devices having ridiculous battery drains when outside of a +/-10C range from 20C).
It will simply work and keep working for your lifetime, unlike many or most ZigBee and Zwave devices.
Unlike Starfighter says, It actually isn’t that expensive for basic home users. if you do it correctly and don’t go for “everything being LCD panels”. It is much much cheaper than retrofitting every socket with ZigBee or zwave smart switches. I am fully stripping and renovating my house and it is literally about the same price as doing everything with modern teleruptors, with 10x the functionality. If you include the license, then maybe 10% more expensive.
It cost me literally 1400€ 32 switches, 16 circuits of on/off lights and fans (or I could use them for roll blinds), and 4 dimming circuits, plus temperature and humidity sensors to smartly turn on bathroom fans. It is €30 for every Shelly wave module which would be 1000€ just for the switches alone with no dimming or sensing. Plus if you are already rewiring you house, you get to save a shit ton of money using small gauge cable with potential-less contacts.
Don’t get me wrong, zwave is great, but KNX is absolutely king at only a marginal price premium (for standard home users, commercial focused HVAC controllers and such are expensive as hell)
Edit: also one thing to note is that all UI elements of KNX through pretty much all the manufacturers look like they are from 2010 or earlier (and they often are). I much prefer other options or a Home Assistant tablet or something.
KNX + zWave + esphome (especially when it gets matter support) will be the ultimate combo of reliability and flexibility!
I have had accubattery for my phone’s duration and Sony have the feature that you can force stop charging at 80%. In the past 3.5 years with the phone, I have charged 1 814 046 mAh in that time. Assuming avg 3.8V (not hitting too much or CV with 80%) and my local price of 0.32€/kWh, that is only 2.14€ over 3.5 years.
Phones are absolutely crazy efficient.
