It doesn’t have a speedometer function, but I selfhost Owntracks for personal location tracking with my Android smartphone.

It has a back end that an android app sends location too, and a front end that displays those location points over a map. It can display lines between consecutive points, show a heatmap of the location points, filter location history within windows of time, and more.

I use Thunder! I’ve been using it for a long time now, and really like it.

I doubt Reddit builds a decent search engine, that doesn’t actually help them at all.
If users can search, they find a previous post pertaining to what they want to see/know and they move on.
If there’s no search, users can’t find old posts or comments so they make new posts about a previously posted topic and more comments are made as other users react. That’s more content, even if low quality from a user perspective, that shows engagement which can be sold to advertisers.

That’s before considering the engineering effort it takes to make a good search engine, constantly fine tune that algorithm, and try to outpace those that are trying to game the search algorithm.

I like Czkawka for detecting and handling duplicate files, similar files, empty directories, and more.

Sunday afternoon, after careful evaluation of a significant security concern, we made the intentional decision to sever our ties to the internet.

I feel like most big announcements like this end up being Ransomware. Cutting off from the wider internet feels like a weird move to defend/mitigate that? Unless it’s to reduce exfiltration?

I assume you mean SSL/TLS certificates for internet accessable applications? I use a reverse proxy called Caddy in a Docker container, which handles requests from the internet and directs them to the proper docker container based on the subdomain. It also handles my certificates automatically, requesting a new Let’sEncrypt cert just before the old one expires using a community made plugin.

You may be able to use the CLI tool mmv, which can be installed through the apt package manager. It’s great at renaming files that are starting a similar naming convention and ending with a similar naming convention, you could use mmv to move your files. It also suppose sum links and hardlinks. It’s what I used to rename folders of tv shows when I need to do that.

I hope so too. But he’s already not supposed to be using Mar-a-lago as a permanent residence. So we’ll see what happens.

I’m not sure, that’s a question for the Dev.

Some of the reason may be the hastle of rebranding, having two Openboards would be confusing so the fork would need to change names and icons and such. Some of it is also be this is for personal use, and we happen to find it, so they may not be interested in the expectation of maintaining it beyond their own useage. Some of it may be this is good enough, Openboard’s release cycle is pretty slow so the fork doesn’t need to be updated and released often, so an APK on Github downloaded twice a year is good enohgh for them.

I doubt even for health reasons, probably more for security reasons. Secret Service securing a prison would be a nightmare for anything short of splitary confinement. For that reason alone, he’d probably be under house arrest.

I use a fork of OpenBoard with Swipe Typing libraries added to it.

I have something like that as well. Skiing and swimming make me feel like that, in different ways.

I’m a lifelong skier, and raced for a couple of years in high school which really improved my general skiing skills, comfort, and confidence. When I’m skiing, I can get to the top of a mountain with an incredible view, I can better see just how vast that little section of the world is. I feel small but at the same time I feel like I can conquer anything, the only thing that can hold me back is a willingness to try.

I’m also a lifelong swimmer, and raced at an amateur level for a about a decade between middle school, high school, and college. It feels amazing to be comfortable and move well in an environment that’s almost totally not for humans. It feels like what I imagine being able to fly would, and unlocks a whole new world of otherwise unconventional movements and if you take it to a large pond/lake/ocean weird and amazing creatures as well. That can be amplified even more by doing things like snorkeling, even more curious creatures and structures, not needing to break the immersion to breath. It’s a world unlike anything else.

Edit: Sorry about the spam, this seemed to be failing while on Airplane WiFi, so I kept resubmitting not realizing each was actually submitted.

There is more to genedered events than meets the eye. On the surface, it can seem like trying to separate based on ability or potential ability that may seem unnecessary. I don’t follow golf so I can’t compare the best men’s and women’s golfers myself. However Chess is also has men’s and women’s leagues, and doesn’t need to separate on any physical differences between men and women. When it comes to events like Chess, US Chess started a Girl’s league to help draw and maintain girls playing the game to great success.

Having a separate women’s league can make sure that women see there is an oppotuntiy to play and lower that bar to joining, potentially reduce toxicity from a still otherwise male dominated event (this analysis has a gender breakdown for the India Chess Federation), and make sure that women win some of the prize money available incentivising players to play. However there are some like International Master Sam Shankland that believe that it would be better if there was just one league for everyone to compete in, incentivising everyone to improve to the highest level. There are some concerns about a skill gap between men and women, however there are statistical analysis showing that can be explained by having two vastly different sizes of groups being represented and ranked.

I’ll add that to my rotation! So far it’s looking like the most complete app yet. I’m also keeping an eye on Boost for Lemmy, as an ex-Boost for Reddit user.

I flip between a Progressive Web App, Thunder, Jerboa, and Liftoff on Mobile (Android). I’ve been spending most of my time in Thunder, but each method is missing just a couple features that others cover which are occasionally useful.

Containers like Docker/Podman? I only use that for selfhosted services on my servers. I can’t speak to Docker/Podman applications used on desktop.

If you want to include more universal package methods such ad Snap, Flatpak, and AppImage, I use Flatpak installations for things I want to sandbox that don’t have a focus on Linux Development. These are applications like Discord and Spotify. I’ll also install applications through Flatpak that aren’t available through my package manager, after checking that the Flatpak is maintained by the developer. An example of that which I use is Czkawka which finds and offers solutions for duplicate and similar files.
The way I used Flatpak, I haven’t run into any show stopping issues although I do know using Flatpak for CLI applications can be difficult and annoying. I believe Flatpak CLI apps need to be run by using the full Flatpak package name instead of just the executable name.

If you’re open to things similar to Plex, I’d recommend Jellyfin! Plex has been making some decisions lately that aren’t necessarily selfhoster friendly. A selfhosted instance of Plex still authenticates using Plex’s central servers (if you’re internet is out or Plex is down and you want to stream your own movies or shows, that won’t work due to failed authentication). That’s compared to your Jellyfin instance handling authentication locally. If you can contact your server, you can watch your media. Plex has also announced a credit skipping feature, uploading credit timing to their central servers that can be restored on complete rebuild. While they say it’s anonymous, they need some way to associate you and the proper credit timings, to send that back to you.

Jellyfin is earlier days in development, and you should check to see what clients are available to see if that would work with your hardware. But Jellyfin is definitely catching up, I’ve been very happy with their server and applications.
