I recently had my first experience dealing with an American style self checkout in Germany. That is, one of those self checkouts with the scales that you have to move your items between.

Absolute moronic. At every other store the self checkout doesn’t implicitly accuse me of being a thief. Oopsie daisy, guess I’m never going to that store again. It has too much sensory overload anyway.

Not sure if I got the update yet, but I’m banning my printer from accessing the internet right now.

You can still build it yourself.

Yeah, it’s big brain time.

My lead dev used to pronounce it njinx and I always needed some time to realize what he’s talking about.

You’re right, I wasn’t thinking about the android app when writing this.

Ale we talking about the same thing?

Yeah, works nice as long as you have a server to host it on.

The only annoyance is that it’s not very space efficient and you have to rebuild your database like twice a year to bring the size back down. It might be not that bad depending on what you do. I create above thousand new lines of notes with a lot of pictures every day and I’m at around 2GB after rebuilding the database. I expect it to go up to like 6GB biyearly, but, again, clicking on the rebuild button deals with that.

Have you seen the community-made self hosted sync plugin?

There in fact are FOSS alternatives like Joplin. Personally, I actually switched from Joplin to Obsidian due to a larger community (and therefore community-driven plugins) and overall a more polished UX. That being said, I have the security of switching back if Obsidian ever becomes evil or unusable.

Another aspect is that the entire source code is technically viewable (partially obfuscated) since it’s a web app. Having written plugins for Obsidian, you’re very much interacting with the source code itself. Feels like open source with extra steps and I wish one day they will finally make the switch to true FOSS.

It looks so flimsy. The size of the keyboard compared to the screen feels like it would be nearly impossible to type on it with the thumbs comfortably and without the phone falling out of your hand.

Edit: Oh no, I just noticed that’s a case. Than makes it even worse. I would not trust that thing to hold my phone in place.

No better time to get into self hosting!

Maybe you’re playing the wrong VR games?

There’s your culprit

How exactly does NAT prevent that? On good hardware it adds insignificant latency.

But to be fair, as people we would not ask “how many Rs does strawberry have”, but “with how many Rs do you spell strawberry” or “do you spell strawberry with 1 R or 2 Rs”

Aqara H1 switches have a version with and without neutral wire.

Look into the Aqara H1 suite of wall switches. They’re fantastic!

But many commenters think they will just stop producing these laptops. You know, like my comment explains.
