Frog has seen some things.

I’d bet the car originally had lug bolts in a m12x1.25… which is also a common spark plug thread size

You only have to do that the next 30-40 years of your life if you live the next 30-40 years… just saying.

It could be worse, you could have to work the next 60 years.

Ha, my employer values my thoughts about as much as I value a kick in the balls.

True, but have you considered the fact that they are “free” and beat the commies? /s

I haven’t found anything solid. It’s dropped off my plate for now.

I will probably end up self hosting some xmpp for it.

Not an xorwich?

Eventually nobody.

Capitalism isn’t about sustainability, it’s about making the most amount of profit in the shortest amount of time.

Eventuall you bleed everyone dry and nobody has a job. But for a short amount of time the shareholders will have had a huge number of 0’s and 1’s in a database somewhere equating to their “worth”

Not anymore.

Paid for is just the ability to use said thing for another month.

A good rule of thumb is to look just below the side mirrors. The average height person seated correctly will see the stop line appear just below the side mirrors when the front bumper is at the line.

Easy way to know with yourself in your own car is to park right at the line, then sit in the drivers seat and compare where the line is in relation to the mirrors when seated normally.

Proton has stopped the “visionary” that allows SMTP, now it’s only available in business accounts. :( I tried setting up the bridge CLI, but so far haven’t been able to get it to send anything after logging in and syncing the account, Maybe I’ll try again once I’ve got some things off my plate.

Setup rules that forward to an IP:port I used a guide on smarthomebeginner initially. I’ll try and find it found it.

And scroll till the section. “Adding non-docker or external apps behind Traefik”

Not really a feature of the phone, but a design theory. I want my small phone back. Not this “zenfone 9” size small. Like HTC One size small.

Make it bifold wallet sized, and ~1/2"thick.

These hugely tall phones where you can’t reach the top third if the screen without dropping the thing are just annoyingly huge. Then they make them so thin they can’t fit a big enough battery for a full day use.

Beyond that would like an under display fingerprint sensor. Rear and side mounted always have issues with cases for me, and make it more annoying when using the device while it’s on a desk.

I setup a traefik instance and route everything through authelia 2fa. Not sure it’s the perfect way to do it, but I feel it’s doing ok. Haven’t seen anything really alarming in the logs yet.

Jack and charger ports can be controlled by the phone to turn off if there is low resistance (ie water) between contacts.

A battery is harder, as it’s what provides the power to the thing that decides whether to turn off the port. Not that it’s impossible to put some smarts into a battery, to decide when to power the output. But it’s going to add a lot of complexity and bulk to do it (switching circuit, logic circuits, etc)

I see it as a longevity thing.

Sure you can bring another battery pack with you and charge your device from it, but at some point your internal battery will be degraded enough that it essentially needs to be plugged in to function, which is not feasible.

Being able to easily replace the thing in the device that wears out fastest is a good thing.

Granted I expect if this does go through, that mfg will make the battery hard to replace by other means (ie drm locks) making sure they can nickel and dime the consumer all the way.
