some permissions can be set per app. I’m not sure battery level is one of those and I have apps (i.e. homeassistant) which can read thatwithout me actually having explicitly allowed it. Usually it’s stuff one pictures/files, location, camera or health data that are restricted
They’re not talking about with Steam customers though, but rather with the religious idiots who have decided to crusade against porn, feel emboldened by recent age-ID bills and are now pursuing the “MasterCard funds filth” angle.
I’m kinda wondering what the ratio of anti-porn religious knobs is you gamers. There’s a lot of religious folk but many of them also enjoy porn so …
Ha. I really wanted to play BF2+Project Reality back in the day but it never quite ran right on my PC (more the fault of the PC than the game or mod I think).
I’ll check Squad out
Fair. It can still be a good game but I was so miss the old BF games
Looks more like Fortnite than BF.
I want another game like BF1942+Desert combat, or possibly BF2142
No, we mean “sharing what they claim is their experience and details of such”
Maybe they weren’t sharing addresses and SSN’s (though what’s stopping them from doing so), but like anything online it’s certainly not hard to make up, spin, or highly exaggerate a story to the detriment of the subject, but without them knowing about it.
So yeah, even if Sally Smith claims that “**Billy Jones of 125 South Street is a big loser who has undisclosed herpes, which who knows how he got it with that small dick of his”, maybe the truth is that Billy refused to pay for an expensive meal on a first date it some other thing entirely.
This isn’t turnabout (as the leak wasn’t intentional), and not abuse either, but it may be a bit karmic.
** Names and story entirely made up for example purposes
Uh… you can’t just “expose a LAN network to the Internet” in this manner. Local subnets aren’t routable over the Internet, so you can’t just enter 192.168.2.3 and end up on somebody else’s private LAN.

They would have needed to either have all their internal devices being assigned public IP’s or had NAT+firewall rules explicitly routing ports from their outside address(es) to the inside ones. The former is unlikely as normally ISPs don’t allocate that many to a given client, or at least not by DHCP. the latter would require a specific configuration mapping the outside addresses/ports to inside devices, likely on a per device+port basis.
Either your story is missing key details or you’ve misunderstood/made-up something.
The storage facility concept is kinda close, if you count it as “a storage facility beside a major intersection in a big facility, with the locker doors left open despite meant the warning at the front desk not to do so”
Did you even watch the video
Did you even read the comment? I said “in front of” (as in perpendicular to) not “into”.
That is EXACTLY what this car was trying to do. Take a second to read things properly before you comment maybe.
Stopping might have still been a better result than turning in front of incoming traffic though
You can actually already do this to an extent. Make certain bookings from a different country by VPN and it will affect your price (for the same flight/hotel/etc). I tried this a year ago and it made a difference!
And no competition. I’m pretty sure that they can shave some of the price off from that massive jump that came with COVID due to [checks list] “supply chain issues” and yet never went back down after…
I think the idea behind a phone with a camera is that your can immediately upload what you’ve got in case some thug with a badge takes your device and smashes it
Yeah I’ve got a P7 Pro and the battery is still fine. Adaptive charging enabled to help batter life.
Handed my P6 down to my daughter and it’s still fine for her too
I run backups to a USB drive which is way to grab in the event of an emergency. Just make sure you test them every more and again, and possibly only connect it when needed if you’re at all worried about malware (a cryptolocker will happily take out any attached storage if your machine is infected).
A lot of that stack looks similar to mine, though I’m running bigger hardware for various reasons. You might want to go with something with more cores than an i5 depending on how much you find yourself utilizing.
Have you considered Nextcloud for documents and syncing functionality? I went through a few ways of running it before ended up with the Snap package which has been fairly solid for over a year now (Docker was good for setup, but upgrading was problematic if not kept up with religiously)
Vaultwarden is Excellent.
Calibre-Web is good, especially if paired with the application to “extract” books, and an app like Moon+ on mobiles
Audiobookshelf is pretty solid. Pairs well with Libation.
HASS I initially ran on my server in a container but moved to dedicated hardware so updating and reboots didn’t break automatons. Got a HASS Yellow for the PoE and Zigbee.
If you’re looking for audio/video library management, JellyFin is pretty easy to get running and has apps for phones plus many TVs. Finamp is a good mobile app for the music part
You can also use a router that can run wireguard/openvpn and have that run the tunnel back to home for you. I’ve got a portable GL-Inet router with OpenWRT that I use for this when I’m on the road
That sounds kinda cool. I’ll have to check it out. It’s kinda hard sometimes to push FOSS stuff in a largercorporate environment but this looks like something I could recommend/build for small-mid private SOHO clients.
Used to run OpenVPN. Tried Wireguard and the performance was much better, although lacking some of the features some might need/want fit credential-based logins etc
Arch has a bit of a steeper learning curve. Ubuntu is probably the most “mainstream”, but I prefer Mint (based on Ubuntu) for some user-friendly changes. PopOS (already based on Ubuntu) is also supposed to be a bit more gaming centric if you’ve got an Nvidia card.
I’ve got an AMD kit in my main machine and Nvidia/Intel in my laptop and both work fine with most Steam games using Proton.
