Residential VPNs are available, plus home IPs change constantly on most providers.

Their best option is probably requiring a phone number verification to make an account.

What are they gonna do, close your accounts and make you sign up for 10 more? lol

Lots of GPUs together.

I’m surprised about the satisfactory reference, that game never ran particularly well for me once I was a ways in with lots of stuff built up.

If you have a need for high levels of privacy it’s the only way to do it, or just leave your phone at home.

It doesn’t really defeat the purpose of having a mobile phone either IMO, most stuff I do on my phone is already offline (maps, notes, taking photos, etc).

Would need to disable the cell radios, wifi and bluetooth too since those are also used to track device location.

In that case another degoogled ROM sounds more like what you’re after?

Graphenes thing is hardware security.

Yeah a voltage regulator would be a bad idea, however a well designed DC-DC buck converter can be in the 95%+ efficiency range and produce very little heat.

The Pi can actually be higher in some cases in my experience.

I have a pair of passively cooled PCs with i3-7100u CPUs, RAM, and a single NVMe drive each, and they draw around 1-2W when idle.

Digikey has the official espressif dev boards, if you want decent quality ones.

The Pixel phones were the only devices with secure enough hardware to make GrapheneOS viable, that’s why they developed it for them.

It wasn’t because of some deal with google or anything like that.

Not open source is an absolute no for me.

I use zram only with no swap on the SSD for my laptop/desktop.

For my server it has zram too but with extra low priority swap on the SSD just in case zram gets full up.

Hibernate isn’t something I’ve really ever used, my laptop uses very little power in sleep mode.

Fedora w/ KDE always just feels like home to me, I like the defaults so I don’t spend much time mucking around, and it feels stable and reliable.

Yeah I see a lot of projects where people are trying to use Pi’s for things better served by an x86 box with a low power CPU or similar.

For now at least, google will likely remove that option in the future.

uBlock Origin too if you don’t already have it.

The Orange Box, absolutely worth it lol

Yeah from what I’ve seen OSM is really well filled out over there. I add what I can in my town in the US, but it’s a lot to keep up with businesses changing hours and whatnot all the time (small town things)

I think this is a good example of how Matrix does support most of the things we expect from Discord, but the defaults are sometimes wrong (showing rooms from spaces if not in a space), and the sheer number of client apps that are all slightly different and outdated in various ways adds a ton of friction to using it.
