In sonarr/radarr you just select hardlinking instead of copy in the appropriate dropdown menu in settings and that’s it. Nothing else needs to be done if they share the same storage.

Fair phone maybe?

Outdated HW and doesn’t have graphene support.

It’s at least beginning to be mentioned in the national media where I live, and people are generally opposed. Unfortunately the current government seems to completely ignore the voice of the people.

It still can’t be done 100% unless you make significant sacrifices to the usefulness of your smartphone…there’s plenty of really useful (and sometimes necessary) things with no FOSS or open source alternatives.

The law didn’t mess up the internet, asshole business owners with their bullshit malicious compliance (and spineless devs enabling them) messed up the internet.

As the title of the RFC implies, QUIC obfuscation works by tunneling UDP through an HTTP server acting as a proxy.

…yes, it says so in the article.

VPS, email and aliases have no use in real daily life outside of small niche hobbies and is a poor indicator of how useful cryptonis as currency.

I’m intrigued about PC hardware, bedsheets, food and drink directly with crypto from a store, because I have never seen that.

There’s also stores where you can buy gift cards for real-world things (Amazon etc.) with Monero.

I guess that’s highly location dependant, we don’t have amazon in my country. Even if we did I’d rather use my credit card than shop with them though…

IME crypto is largely useless as a means of payment, not just in the real world but also online. Literally nothing I have ever bought online could be paid with crypto, no stores that sell useful tangible things takes them, be it hardware (kitchen, computer, whatever…), groceries, things for hobby projects. There’s just nowhere to spend it.

AFAIK it’s the IPs of the VPN server that gets flagged in these cases. Not sure how that could be masked, it would probably basically just be using a different VPN server

Ah OK fair enough, I’ve just seen so many from the US cite ridiculous cell phone plans

Cell phone data is fairly low priced in the EU compared to the US…I used to pay $17/month for 50GB data and 5G access, and I could use 10GB of that without extra charge in all EU countries. I’ve reduced my plan now to 10GB/month because i wasn’t using more than that, and it costs $10/month

If app support breaks even more or gets even jankier on grapheneOS than it already is, I’m folding and getting a dumb phone instead.

Might as well just go dumb phone then…

I’m not expecting perfect matches, but what is considered basic proper functionality. Expecting a navigation app that is not just on par (or even worse) with a 25 year old TomTom is really not setting the bar high or expecting too much IMO.

And I do still use inferior apps to avoid big tech, but the constant shortcomings (some minor, some major) is extremely annoying, so yeah I’m venting some of that.

Passing strong integrity check isn’t always enough. My banking and government 2FA still don’t work on rooted devices (or graphene with locked bootloader and play services)

Yeah i disagree that FOSS should be given extra slack just because…

Yes but that’s the nuisance you don’t want with an application specifically made to make navigation easier. I want good simple workflows, not shitty clunky workarounds.

I don’t know what Wegmans is, but all the places I’ve tested so far was found, even small local artisanal shops in the town I live in.

rooting your phone gives you ability to fake a lot of the requirements to make stubborn apps run.

Rooting also completely breaks the ability to run some apps with no recourse for spoofing the fact that it’s a rooted device.

I’m in Scandinavia and haven’t had issues with gmaps routing. The routing of OsmAnd is fine, but the navigation visualization is insanely bad, when you turn your phone horizontal they fill the whole screen with basically useless blank bars both at the top and bottom instead of just showing the map and turn-by-turn instructions in a corner like gmaps. That combined with the less than useless searching (if you don’t know the specific address of a place you’re pretty much SOoL) makes it really bad IME.

I’m not sure what you mean by “aggressive routing”?

What is a good alternative that actually does navigation and searches on places as well as gmaps? I’ve been using OsmAnd and it’s absolutely dogshit compared to it. Even the navigation, the arguably most important part, is pretty bad.

Edit: actually spent some time looking again, and CoMaps does this quite well. This is replacing OsmAnd+ for me.

It can be done with zero knowledge proof…it probably won’t, but it could be.

I also use bitwarden (work), and it only does password management. It doesn’t do email and alias generation.

Yeah it’s not just for privacy, hence the port forwarding requirement.

AFAIK nothing has shown issues with the privacy of either email or VPN? At least not something that wasn’t caused by blatant idiot user error like the guy with his apple email as recovery email.

What’s a good alternative VPN provider in EU, not based in Italy? Mullvad is not an option, port forwarding is an absolute requirement.

Also, is there anything out there that ties password/account management and temp emails together as well as proton pass?

I didn’t say there was German consensus, but the fact that politicians in almost all member states are either pro or considering it is frightening.

German EU politicians are also pushing the chat control BS, it seems like it is only a matter of time until these psychos slip these invasive laws through.

Get whatever phone you want privately. If your work depends on you having a smartphone for various things, they can provide you with one. I have never used my work phone privately, and never will. I just have two phones, one of them gets turned off when I leave the office.

Use rethink DNS, it will do both filtering and VPN. I use the wireguard config from my proton in rethink DNS.

I’ve been using grapheneOS on and off since I got my pixel 8A about a year ago. I keep going back to stock android because Graphene has so many quirks and shit that kind of works, but not quite well enough. That coupled with all the completely breaking issues with banking apps and other apps (we have a 2FA app for official online stuff, but it just doesn’t work in graphene) makes me give up every time I try.

Gosh darn it, y’all got me there…

I think they’re hinting at you to tell them what these other solutions are

It is no longer maintained

If you can live without port forwarding, mullvad is another great option.

It’s not just inconvenient, it literally makes large parts of the internet inaccessible, even important and useful parts that are not just memes and SoMe.

It’s still not working for me unfortunately, I’m using the latest release and I get “unplayable, video unavailable” error on everything.

I’ve had colleagues just play the “I don’t fucking care if you’re sending me back because my papers have a spelling mistake, this is just a business trip” method when US customs/immigration starts acting up. Not sure I’d have the balls to do that now that the US is sending people to KZ camp light for pretty much nothing.
