I drove a newer rental car and tried all the safety assist features. I felt the same way after less than at hour of driving and turned everything except cruise and emergency brake off.

Don’t even get me started on how useless the voice control system was. The car voice control is usually significantry worse than the Google provided version. I frankly do not understand how Google has done such a garbage job. Voice control on Google seems to have gotten worse since it came out, not better. At least for actually getting things done rather than just asking silly questions. I can’t even effectively take a note on my motorcycle reliably by voice.

After three attempts I finally have Dawarich working 🤦‍♂️. LubeLogger also looks interesting.

Valid. But it’s also valid that it now doesn’t work for me or anyone who also helps manage other people’s lives or works on a team ¯_(ツ)_/¯

It’s the fault of my family organization or every company we use that my parent’s bank, Google, phone, laptop, etc don’t allow more than one set of credentials to access the same thing?
It’s not just that we need to be able to share credentials the once a blue moon I need to help them by logging into their account?

I guess a laptop, server, IoT device, or WiFi connection when your main device doesn’t have internet is out of scope for you?
Like fixing my laptop and not wanting to type the new password into my phone instead of copy/paste, sync when online?
And how are you sharing a file, to multiple people anywhere in the world realtime ish, without a cloud service you or someone else hosts? Doesn’t that necessitate some syncronization logic?

And you can both modify the same things without causing horrible conflict issues? And you can share only parts of your vault with someone rather than having entirely different vaults you have to switch between? I’m assuming you mean putting the file somewhere like Google Drive, and you can access it offline even if you can’t edit it offline? For feature parity with Bitwarden, obviously ideally one could edit any time and it would resolve problems when it came back online if there were any but Bitwarden doesn’t allow this.

Sharing passwords between groups of people so everyone always has the up to date version. Not breaking the world if two people try to modify the same entry as some file syncing solutions do.

They also don’t effectively allow collaboration though, which is my cheif reason for using a cloud hosted password manager.

How are you using Headscale, with a thirdparty VPN? I can understand Mullvad might have a Wireguard config option?

:P
I hadn’t even considered running not one, but three VPNs and chaining them together for different functionalities.

I have a public IP and DNS, but as it’s a home lab I need the connectivity of other devices to not depend on a single device (VPS or otherwise). I frequently end up with broken things for short periods and I appreciate Everything not being broken when one thing is.

Also, if I put it on my SOs phone, connectivity needs to never be broken for her even if she can’t get to one or two devices that are broken.

Accessing my dozen services running on my server, plus accessing some other specific devices running in various other places I am not going to open to the internet. Media machine, a second server, laptop, router without opening it to the internet, printers, etc.

I don’t care about the “make your traffic come from somewhere else”, just the “all my devices in my network no matter where they are” bit.

Syncthing actually isn’t running over VPN usually; it’s open to the internet. But the dozen or more other things I host are not open to the internet. Immich for example. And in some cases when Synctding can’t connect I appreciate having the VPN as a backup.

Yes, mesh because I don’t want to have to setup routes through a single device when I add a new one and I don’t want to be dependent on one IP.

Ahg. Okay. I might try headplane again :(

Will try disabling expiry and using the default app. Thanks.

This SnapRAID occupies an interesting middle ground between the least “proper” solution and the most “proper” solution for when more resources aren’t available or justified, it seems.

Rather than a single drive, or dozens of drives, with data randomly duplicated around or lost when individual drives die. Rather than a huge volume on zfs with it’s large setup cost and lack of expandability (until AnyRaid is done) and potentially unneeded additional functionality.

Then mergerfs is a natural expansion offering a unified way to organize and access the data that SnapRAID is securing (instead of mounting all those drives somewhere).

If someone merged these projects into one solution, and added a couple extra functions (like managing compression or deduplication, caching) it seems like it could be a comparable offer to zfs for different use cases. Imagine a NAS offering with this setup by default. Much more intuitive to users I would argue.

Sounds interesting, thank you!

I can’t email 20 pictures that are 5MBs each. Gmail caps at 20MB and other providers have random other caps. No one in my life with an iPhone knows what to do with a USB stick. Nor do I want to use a computer as an intermediary to get something I wanted on my phone.

I’m not saying there weren’t always ways to transfer files. There always have been and I’ve used many of those ways. But god Airdrop is simpler and more reliable than most of them for small every-day things from phone to phone especially for tech illiterate.

I use magic-wormhole often but I’m not asking my tech illiterate grandma to use that just to get some photos from me. I’m also not going to get an iPhone myself to iCloud the photos to her or whatever Apple people do.

If email works fine for you, great. But that doesn’t make it a good solution for everyone. I hate emailing files around.

I have never been able to successfully send a file between two different Android devices using Quick Share. It always gets stuck loading or connecting.

Because Airdrop is miles more reliable and easier to use than anything Android came up with (yes I am aware of QuickShare, it sucks)?

Because having two walled gardens where people need the same third party app to move data between them is silly?

Because Apple needs some “see regulators! we are not a monopoly, we are cooperating with Google :D” wins.
