Ugh flightradar24 is a hit. Really??

:(

There a pretty big one in Washington DC

You can register with any number, it just defaults to +86

Notably in the release from GitHub, not from Play

Everything from DivestOS has had development cease and archived. Looks like the servers have recently gone offline

This got me to finally move away from Edge. Only thing I’m wishing comes soon is native PWA support. The addon is so janky and my biggest gripe about using Firefox, but I can put up with it since I’ve now got vertical tabs and multiple profiles

I ripped one on a pew during a Christmas eve service once

I would check out the inovelli switches. Not exactly inexpensive, but definitely home assistant friendly

The secret to it

Im not sure if it’ll work for your use case, as I don’t have my phone setup like that, but Material Files should be able to do what you’re looking for. I’m able to access my termux directory with Add storage > external storage, so if you can see the files in both in the system picker it should work here.

That’s kinda the premise of GAN, it’s generator is going to keep generate more and more “human” faces until it’s discriminator can no longer determine them as generated. It’s literally generating more human humans than real humans (according to itself)

I can sometimes sense cops or deer when I’m driving.

I’ll be sitting at a red light for a while with nobody coming, I think to myself “yeah I can probably just run this, nobody’s around. I won’t in case a cop…” and then one will pass the light. It’s happened multiple times to me.

When I hit a deer with my car I was coming home from work at like 2am, I suddenly got a really strange urge that there was something up ahead and I dismissed it right before I plowed into it. I’ve gotten the same feeling a few times after that, and I’ll always look to the sides of the road and see deer somewhere in the distance. Terrifies the shit outta me

You can set it to have symbols on long presses. Saves digging around for most common ones

3D paint was a UI nightmare. This is classic paint with new stuff built on top, no 3d

Saw a TikTok where a guy got Waldo tatted on his taint

I used to work at Staples as a tech supervisor and did a ton of data transfers but hated their software. I also didn’t quite trust these third-party utilities (although I’m sure they’re fine), so I made this guide on using GNU tools (specifically gParted) to clone a drive safely, as well as getting it to boot back into Windows afterwards (you do need a Windows install disk. I always carried around a Ventoy with both Ubuntu and Windows on it). It was designed for my not-very-techy techs to be able to follow (Staples’ tech program is a joke)

This is probably a bit more complicated than the other listed methods, but I personally trust it way more. If you have some linux experience that’s great, otherwise this is a decent way to start building some!

I’ve only ever had one data transfer catastrophically fail, which was a computer that had a 64 eMMC + an unused 512GB SSD. I cloned the data from the 64 eMMC to the SSD, and it booted fine, I called the customer in and showed them that everything was in the same spot, then I wiped the 64 eMMC and hid it to reduce confusion. Apparently, it was still linking to old files on the eMMC, despite booting off of and showing the SSD as the C: drive. Every other clone I had done I had taken out the old drive first, but obviously I couldn’t on the one that was soldered to the board. Left me with a borked windows install, that even though all the data was there, and Windows would boot, opening anything caused an error that was nowhere to be found on Google. (Worst of all, I borked it right in front of them which was quite embarrassing)

Personally a big fan of the pixel series. Running a P7P unlocked right now. Google doesn’t attempt to hamper the bootloader unlocking process in the least. I pre-ordered this phone and had it rooted on day one. I run stock (other than root) but I’ve played around with some others, like graphene and lineage.

One downside is that TWRP doesn’t support tensor yet, so P6 & P7 aren’t supported, but flashing is still easy without it.

Pixels seem to have a very long community support, I gave my sister an old P2XL with pixel experience on it so she had the latest security patches and she seems to really like it.

I’ve seen complaints about the P7 series overheating. I’ve had mine shutdown twice because of thermals, but this was in the sun while I was running nav on Android Auto. Moving it to the shade and letting it reboot seemed to fix that.

All of the pixels released so far don’t have DP Alt mode which is a real bummer, but I’ve seen rumors that the P8 (October 23?) Will include it, so I remain hopeful.
