Phone recommendation by Brunette6256 in c/privacy@lemmy.ml

Agreed. Maybe check app battery stats? I found that home assistant app in some configurations kills my phone in 4 hours.

Private alternative to life360 - Paralino (paralino.com)

I just discovered this app. I know there are folks out there who think location tracking is the opposite of privacy but it's a nice security tool to keep track of your loved ones. I found this one thats fully end to end encrypted. I am currently in the works to migrate my family of 10 over. (This includes my grandparents who are less than tech savvy)

Just thought I would share in the event there was a father like me looking for a similar tool that doesn't sell your location data or breach your data.

Let's be honest.... GrapheneOS sucks the big one by Brunette6256 in c/privacy@lemmy.ml

Kinda thinking the same thing. Been seeing a lot of posts shitting on graphene this week.

I dont want to enter a contract when consuming your product.. by Brunette6256 in c/mildlyinfuriating@lemmy.world

Do you have any supporting links? I saw a reddit post saying something similar but I cant find a real article or support. Either way I am returning the product.

Ive been on the hunt for a while for something like this. I started looking again since the life360 breach. This is nearly perfect. Just need the iOS app to have a little more support and be in the app store for my less techy friends/family.

VPS provider Vultr Claims Rights to Sell Your Data & Programs by Brunette6256 in c/selfhosted@lemmy.world

[-] Brunette6256@sh.itjust.works 5 points 2 years ago

Well. I have a few servers there. Suppose I will move them. Nothing that isn't easy to move. I can probably find something cheaper on LEB. I just like vultr UI. A lot of the cheaper places make it feel like the early 00s.

Is there a section about the wiki on the wiki? I was wondering what the wiki tool is.

I have calyx hotspot/ tmobile home internet. Ive been having issues with my work Palo Alto Global Protect VPN and tailscale. Neither of them seem to stay connected. They will work for a bit after I reboot my modem. I am using the glinet spitz 5g modem. Any tips for band, MTU, or APN for better experience?

How to bypass a metered connection? by Brunette6256 in c/piracy@lemmy.dbzer0.com

[-] Brunette6256@sh.itjust.works 5 points 2 years ago

Ive notice they not meter the Xfinity Free wifi SSID that their rented modem provides. The one where you login with your xfinity account "on-the-go". Its intended for when you are away from home. But I know someone who used it to bypass the metering.

My cat keeps waking me up. Causing me to have a grumpy day. If my cat or any animal was prevented normal sleep would they get grumpy/agitated like humans?

Magic earth seems pretty good.

HD traffic and report a cop. Also not google and privacy built.

Jellyfin + Tailscale + Hotel TV (sh.itjust.works)

More of a tailscalequestions I suppose, but the usecase is heavily this community. Double NAT so no port forwarding. Using Tailscale fine to get to jellyfix/plex. But how would one use it on a hotel TV or at a friends house/TV ? Thought?
