This has nothing to do with NN

Raspberry pi/small NUC with a screen, in a digital kiosk mode. Just load a static html file with some js to update the clock. No keyboard, no touch input, no way to break it. Connect to it via ssh over tailscale or wireguard VPN to update the HTML with the notes you’d like to display. This way if internet goes down, the clock still works and whatever was displayed wrt messages stays displayed, and you don’t have to worry about the increased overhead of home assistant changes or updates breaking things. It will remain consistent since it’s just HTML and js. If you want less technical family members to be able to update the display…idk, seems like a headache.

I use pihole. Pihole does not work for sites that serve ads from the same domain, like YouTube

Friendly reminder you can use FF nightly and make an addon collection to get any add-on you want on mobile. 95%+ of the ones I’ve tried work, and the ones that didn’t were pretty obscure.

We can call it the USB 3.2 Gen2x2 Magnets, How Do They Work Edition

Fairly certain these can’t be done on iPhone but correct me if I’m wrong:

• Multi window/split screen -AFAIK you can only do this on iPad
• custom home screen/launcher: the icons on a grid both bores and overwhelms me, so I use a minimalist launcher with a few shortcuts and app drawer for the rest
• removable SD card. Sure, storage is getting better on phones, but the ability to pop a 2TB micro SD in my phone and keep offline copies of whatever I like for times I have no service is absolutely crucial to me (SD slot depends on what phone you have ofc, some manufacturers ditched it)
• home screen widgets
• notifications are superior on android
• USB 3.0 speed data transfer with no additional software, to any device that can accept a USB stick
• third party apps and app stores
• being able to install apps I develop for my own personal use without paying for a developer account, having to list it on the store, or having to reinstall it every few weeks
• ability to run Firefox with extensions
• multiple accounts for the same app without needing to log in and out
• USB OTG
• game emulators
• can safely browse tor

Depending on what model and manufacturer you go with,

• reverse wireless charging
• headphone jack
• ip68 rating
• call screening
• dual sim

There’s good deals on lenovo m900s or dell optiplex that are great for this. New enough to have low idle wattage and decent performance for VMs and containers, and old enough that they’re cheap.

Phillip DeFranco still makes videos? Huh. TIL.

Indeed. Everything is stored in plain markdown files you can move around and edit elsewhere. I’d like to use a FOSS alternative when I can, but second best is something I can easily jump ship from and not lose data.

you’re on windows, get sharex. It’s miles ahead of anything else. It’s the only thing I miss from daily driving windows.

China is about as communist as the DPRK is democratic.

GPS gets down to 1cm or finer precision with an additional, stationary receiver, and time corrections. https://learn.sparkfun.com/tutorials/how-to-build-a-diy-gnss-reference-station

People have built DIY mowers utilizing tech like this. Problem is, the RTK receivers are far too expensive for all but the higher end mowers.
