Oh yeah, bummer.

Nope. If it was something that I’d need to refer to later I might go the photo route, but since it’s all temporary reference I just toss it in the trash.

I do for my job, where I need to quickly jot down important information. The info I jot down is temporary in nature, and after a particular “job” (I might have a few jobs in a day), the info is useless.

Paper and pen is great because it’s fast, custom, doesn’t take up screen space, and you don’t have to click buttons to throw it away.

Yeesh. I’m glad I have uBlock Origin and also AdGuard Home. uBlock Origin is much easier, but both combined means pretty much no ads in my entire house.

It’s run by the main developers of Lemmy, and they’re both authoritarian communists (which I just got from Wikipedia as I’m trying not to use the pejoritve “tankie”).

Anything that could be perceived as speaking down towards Russia, China, maybe even North Korea, ends up with your comment getting deleted and your account banned for a period of time.

They started Lemmy because @dessalines got banned from Reddit. The backwards thinking is that people shouldn’t be banned for speaking their minds, yet their instance is the absolute worst for that.

By avoiding .ml you are helping Lemmy be what it should be – a decentralized, user owned, user moderated place with sensible decisions behind the scenes.

!linux@lemmy.world and !linux@programming.dev have my support since I boycott .ml whenever possible.

For remote access, wireguard is great. You can access stuff via their internal addresses.

One of the few podcasts I listen to sometimes. Wishing them well and thanks for all of the hard work.

I don’t need backlight to type words, but love backlit keys for symbols, brightness keys, volume keys, function keys, etc.

I just discovered (thanks to this site) that you can click the uBlock Origin icon, then “enter element zapper mode” (the lightning bolt). It just gets rid of whatever you want to disappear.

I wonder if it started as a joke.

“Where can you force people to sit still for long enough to detect an afib?”

“The toilet!”

uBlock Origin, to be specific. I don’t know if it’s still a thing, but uBlock used to be not good in comparison to uBlock Origin.

Yeah, it’s hard to find good ones. You could invert it to 120v AC and plug in a regular charger, but you lose efficiency doing that, not to mention the added danger, weight, and complexity.

Oh I think I get it now. So you can terminate the solar panel with something like this and then charge phones with a standard car charger with PD. I like that idea.

I’m having trouble imagining what you’re setting out to accomplish. 12v solar panels are higher than 12v. This one gets to 18v, for example. You need a solar charge controller to convert it to 12v, and then you’d need something like this to convert it to 5v to charge your battery bank. Whether your battery bank will “take” 12v without electronics to tell it to is beyond the scope of my knowledge, but AFAIK 5v is universally accepted.

Good to know. I had heard Anker did some shady stuff but never caught wind of a good replacement. The phone charger scene is obscene as seen by OP, and and I would rather buy from Anker than buy garbage.

I could be wrong, but I just did some quick research and it looks like the PD spec always supports all of those voltages. I also did a reverse image search of the image you posted, and it’s some no-name brand from Amazon. Don’t buy no-name brands from Amazon. Stick to Anker.

I’m a fan of Dockge. Nice simplicity, easy to update container stacks, etc. etc.

It looks like the hEX refresh is the same price from that vendor.

RB5009 is better but more expensive. There’s a PoE version that can power your WiFi APs in the future.

I also question the decision to put OpenWrt on it. RouterOS is solid. There’s a learning curve, but it’s worth it if you’re a nerd.
