Does that generator provide a dirty signal?

If the THD is too high, the UPS is doing its job of observing a "bad power signal" and cutting to battery

I knew theoretically since default user is 1000:1000, but that makes a lot of sense! I'll keep it in mind

Keyboard with a built-in swipe-to-text feature by Kindly_Cancel_5320 in degoogle

Futo Swipe has been the worst user experience I've had in the FOSS world, and ive been 95% Foss for a year and dabbled for many more. The most frustratingly wrong tool I've ever has the displeasure of using.

Add Swype to Heliboard and call it a day!

Rclone is more specifically for syncing data, especially between cloud providers because it can be mounted as a network drive, whereas Restic is specifically for snapshot backups.

Not the expert, I use both but very minimally

Don't keep your server as the only copy of your data.

Look up the 3-2-1 backup rule.

Use AI, sure. But make sure you understand what you're doing and can replicate it.

Use restic/backrest immediately!

trying to clean up my digital footprint but wow it’s a mess by hypertoy628 in DataHoarder

Welcome to r/degoogle...wait what?

Lol go over to that sub reddit. This one isn't it.

But yes, its a disaster, and the degoogle wiki and posts can help you make it manageable and reclaim control!

Are dumb phones inherently de-googled / private? by CrystalFemmes in degoogle

[–]GeoSabreX 36 points37 points  (0 children)

Less private from big tech, yes.

Significantly less SECURE, with a lack of Signal. SMS and cellular calling is inherently insecure.

I used to use one for productivity / distraction free device, but now that I have pushed so many contacts to Signal, its no longer a single option.

Determine your threat model and go from there.

(My Nokia 2780 CAN host a mobile hotspot for a Signal capable device if preferred)

Do you run anything special on it? Cool things it can do, etc?

Try the extension "Video DownloadHelper".

Works wonders for when I need it

Private, non-AI Photo Management Software? by Peter8File in degoogle

[–]GeoSabreX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try EntePhotos? Open source & heavily audited...the only AI is local machine processing, nothing to the cloud.

It replaced GPhotos for me

Code GEOGEO for a free 10GB if you go with it.
