No issues with banking apps in the Netherlands, Android Auto works!

"What are we gonna do tonight Brain?"

In the Netherlands, bicyclists were always second place in deaths just behind people in cars. Most accidents which causes death are between a car and a bicycle. When the e-bike got trendy. We've seen a big spike in bicycle deaths in 2023 causing it to be the nr 1 cause of death in traffic. The Fat-bike is a big problem here. Its trendy among kids and realy easy to disable speed limiters. Percentage wise I couldn't find anything this fast but it does look like people in cars just don't see them or pay attention to them as the drive faster. I think cameras checking the surroundings is the best hope in getting those numbers down.

Agreed.

Check out iode.tech as well. Like /e/OS, also a lineage OS variant but with build in firewall which you can customize (or turn off). Fast security updates and great default informed FOSS apps (unlike /e/OS).

The camera would need to have its IR filter removed which some mobile optical zoom lenses seem to have removed?! If the lidar would be stationary it would render the lidar beam unsafe for human eyes as well. Most lidars have a beam that is harmful if pointed directly for a longer period than you would blink if looking directly into something rally bright. Because they are infrared you don't have that reaction. Therefore it is mounted on a very fast moving rotary disc. Most of the time the disc itself is also tilting up and down or refracted by a mirror or glass to get a bigger field-of-view". This article is saying, you can destroy a camera by pointing a laser in the sensor. Yeah, dûh but the lidar won't break it, unless using a zoomed in sensor which seem to have its IR removed in some mobile cams. So yeah it can happen... Edit: looked at the reddit video some phones with IR filter removes from zoomed in lensen can have problems.

I use Cryptpad as wel. Its been around quite a while and they have been expanding with an lot of new apps like kanban, drawings, code editors and presentations. All Foss and e2e encrypted.

Why would you try to delete it if you think it is overblown and/or unrelated? If that would be the case it shouldn't bother GOS. The fact that they DID try to delete it is a red flag for me.

Maybe they are really insecure about they're relationship with Motorola sure but given the fact that you are acting as the most secure AND privacy friendly OS on the planet, you should not act like this. They should've given their comment and say why they're not worried or why they're surprised by it. Or, like said, ignore it if they don't think the story holds.

Also why do you think its written by AI? I don't get that vibe at all.

Yes! You can provider any path available to the user

I'm really glad this is implemented! My kids both have an old revived laptop with Bazzite (Fedora Silverblue derivative) and GNOME, and the experience has been really good! With this I hope I can give my kids an alternative digital experience to big tech as part of a guide to better digital wellbeing.

I use Qwant, which is an actual alternative instead of Bing fronts hosted in France. Searx (like on disroot) is also an alternative but lesser relevant searches.

Did this using iodéOS which is a LineageOS distro with more degoogling and os level adblock and filtering build in. Works very well and has been stable for about the 4 heads that its running on my FP4.

I know at least one kind that had a high degree of aluminium in it. But you also have cheaper kinds that dont have that.

I use Syncthing for this. This is peer-to-peer syncing so you don't need a cloud service in between. Works well on all platforms.

I also use filen for encrypted cloud storage and nextcloud for mulitfunctional cloud storage and can work fine as well but nextcloud is much more complex and CPU intensive so the pi might struggle with certain operations as it retains much more information (databases and such).

Rpi4 can work with Syncthing (tested) because it works as a local webserver so you only need an OS with a browser (or do it all in the terminal). Doesn't really matter which OS you use, most will work so Raspberry Pi OS for the pi is fine. Syncthing is in the official repo of Fedora and Opensuse.

The combining of subscriptions i s exactly why I like liftoff as well. Used a couple other clients, but Liftoff seemed the most stable and easy for me.

Also Cryptpad.fr is a great collaborative and fully encrypted MS and Google office alternative. It even has a drawing tool embedded 💪

In a lot of good brands in NL these days they just write "Look, smell and taste before you throw away" I think thats a pretty good waybto check if something is bad. A Best Before date can give an rough estimation when you should start to check the food before using it.

You can install League of Legends on Linux using Wine and Lutris: link

Didn't know this. Hate that anti-cheat breaks games. It should break cheating, not the game 😉

Did that too, but I always make a typo and end up using Qwant. Works great though.
