I don't remember offhand, but I think that's buried in a restricted settings area... I needed it for something I can't remember now.

Edit:

Settings > Apps >Special app access > Display over other apps

I was a fan of leaving the orientation normal, but moving the start bar and setting it to auto-hide. A long time ago I put a simple bat file (like "shutdown -l -t 0" or similar) in a coworkers startup folder... I guess that was a step too far though and he thought I broke his computer. Thanks for the trip down memory lane.

You also have the best shutters ever.

I had the same experience, tried other stuff and eventually came back. Maybe I didn't have redis and Maria setup right before but it's much better for me this time around.

Totally not saying that's what was up for you though, it's not for everyone.

Definitely host your own node! It's trivial for a server admin to add a hidden bot to every chat and while it's still E2EE, an unknown party could still have a copy and key to read it.

Really good talk from DEFCON 32 about the service "Anom" by Joseph Cox (sorry for the lack of a link, at lunch, on mobile and about to get back to work).

Thanks for the explaination!

That definitely sounds like it could be a nice upgrade depending on well it could be filtered (I could see that spidering out pretty quickly if the things you follow interact a lot). Definitely something I'll have to check out sometime, thanks again.

Honest question as I finally dusted back off my interest in RSS. With RSS I need to add the URL to my client and it periodically checks back to show me when new content is posted, does ActivityPub handle this differently? Like how does it know which sources to use without having to hunt down their AP feed and add it to a client?

I could totally be missing something super simple or implied.

I'm not the guy you asked, but I self-host it because I like a couple of the features (like making an org for house stuff, and sharing that with certain family members), it's really awesome for OTP as well. I honestly don't know which features are the paid ones because I went straight to Vaultwarden as I knew I wanted it in house (physically) and Bitwarden didn't offer that.

6 years is one hell of a run for OEM blades! Have you ever looked into silicon ones? While they cost more, they are completely silent and as they wear down they actually fill the minor imperfections in your windshield making it act like it's been covered in Rain-X or similar.

I bought a Jeep a couple years ago and the factory ones came on and scared the shit out of me because I forgot normal blades make that sound.

It definitely helps. In GrapheneOS, Google Play Services can be installed, but it is sandboxed and doesn't even have network access unless you allow it.

It solves so much more though, like through scoping you can give an app access to your contacts, or just specific contacts; to the app, those specific contacts are the only contacts that exist on your phone.

It's one of those things I'm glad people do, not to be offensive, but to be specific.

Prefixing it like that is pretty awesome as someone with a tofu alergy might be fine with chili, but might need a warning when the recipe has been changed.

AT&T came through and wired my neighborhood for fiber, all except for the 14 houses on my side of our street. I have AT&T copper in my yard but they don't offer sign up's anymore. They "completed" my neighborhood in 2022 and moved to the next.
