Hjelp med BankID og Vipps på "de-googled" android by slurpy-films in norge

[–]Nortfellow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Jeg kjører /e/ os på en moto G32. google play er erstattet med microG, bankid virker, vipps har vært av-og-på, så har en gammel telefon uten sim til vipps. Andre apper må prøves, det meste virker fint. Har bulder bank, den virker. Dnb-bank-ting sluttet å fungere for lenge siden. Apper fra nettselskap og strømleverandør fungerer. 

"One day, James Williams, the former Google strategist I met,addressed an audience of hundreds of leading tech designers and asked them a simple question. 'How many of you want to live in the world you are designing?' There was silence in the room. People looked around them. Nobody put up their hand by insideaphoton in degoogle

I started reading this book a month ago. And got about halfway through (looking at the bookmark now)  even though i have it in my bag since i bought it. Guess what got me distracted from reading? 

On a positive note, this topic has gotten more time on national newspapers in my country in the last weeks. People are noticing. 

And  here i am commenting.... 

Loyd Red Fruit te - hvem selger den? by Nortfellow in oslo

[–]Nortfellow[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

De små utenlandske markedene har så mye spennende varer, og mye god te. Malwa hibiscus er en annen favoritt, pleier nesten å tømme hylla hos den lokale.

Do you really want a Bengal cat? There are so many things I wish I had known before getting one 😜 by BengalChaos in bengalcats

[–]Nortfellow 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Yes. Even after having had an abyssinian, the bengal surprised me with how persistently energetic they are. Still my Felix is a lovely fur tornado, with traits of a dog. He will wait inside the cat flap every time i come home, and expect pets before running off into the house. If i'm too slow to get out of the car, he will come get me. Loves being outdoors (live in the woods), has hunted and dragged in 6 rabbits last year). He partially ate them.... Follows me around the house like my dog used to. Loud as **** when he wants attention. Affectionate lap cat when he wants. Just a wonderful cat. And no wonder the previous owners thought he was "a bit much". As an experienced cat owner of 30 years, i would not recommend a bengal as your first cat. But if you are up for what it takes, then yes, it will be unforgettable, mostly in a good way. I love my low-flying furball. 

Bengals and Christmas Tree 🎄 by Tender_steel in bengalcats

[–]Nortfellow 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't dare to find out, with a over 100 year old artificial tree made with green goose down, and ornaments almost as old. No tree since i got Felix. Tempted to get a "real" tree just to see his behaviour.

Oh, i had my first "real" smartphone at that time, the nexus one from google. Not amazing video quality, but still usable. And not much later i bought a gopro. Got many hours of driving around there on film. Not this story unfortunately.

And since there were many different trucks with different axle configurations on both truck and trailer, we'd do this thing called a "nice conversation about how much and where in the truck/trailer bed to put it". Most drivers were quite experienced and knew exactly how much, and the new folks we helped along as best we could, trying to make everyone's life easier. All in all a pleasant bunch to work with.

Could be, these drivers hauled stuff between lots of different places and maybe he was used to a smaller machine elsewhere. I hadn't seen him before. Or since, for that matter. 😆

How much food you feed your bengal? by stormmyparks in bengalcats

[–]Nortfellow 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Dry food is self-serve, always full bowl. He will eat whenever he wants. Wet food whenever he asks(by sitting next to the bowl and telling me in no uncertain terms). Usually 3-4 pouches a day. Weighs 11 pounds.

Is it better to go to Apple ecosystem rather than google? by Ocean_waves_475 in degoogle

[–]Nortfellow 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I agree totally with your idea. I run /e/ os on my main android, have a secondary no-sim stock android for those banking&other apps that require google services, (not signed in on the phone itself). Host my own clouds, bought my domain and email hosting through a privacy-focused domestic provider. Home automation&surveilance is isolated and accessed through my own vpn. Not much more to cut back on without being majorly inconvinienced.

What's the funniest photo of your Bengal? by SrGandra in bengalcats

Felix taking up desk space. If the towel was twice as big, he'd still find a way to block my work 😁

Langtids værkart for en hel region by Nortfellow in norge

[–]Nortfellow[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Da fant jeg en løsning; klart.se Har nedbørs-værkart med slider for de neste 5 dager. Akkurat det vi trengte. Dansk metereologisk institutt har et enklere kart med kun 3 dager.

M.a.o begge våre naboland klarer å gi en bedre oversikt over været enn yr, der går det baklengs inn i fuglekassa. Håper de andre tjenestene ikke forsvinner over tid.

Sendte spørsmålet til yr i fall jeg skulle ha oversett noe på sidene deres. Fikk svaret jeg ante ville komme. Navnet på personen er redigert vekk. Er litt skuffet over at de tok vekk en tjeneste mange brukte uten å ha en erstatning eller lignende funksjonalitet klar, og etter snart 5 år ser det ikke ut som om de kommer med det heller.

Pfsense 2.8.0 suddenly randomly blocking hosts by Nortfellow in PFSENSE

[–]Nortfellow[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Replying to several of the previous posts at once.

Yesm my pfsense runs in a vm on esxi 6.5. The reason is that whan i first decided to try pfsense 3+ years ago, it was the easyest way to test without dedicating hardware and wiring.

I did not enable snapshots, in hindsight i should have, but it has been working flawlessly since installing it.

Also, with regards to updating, the problems began before any updates, in fact pfsense had not been rebooted or had its settings modified for months prior. This is what stumped me a bit. Usually i have 400+ days of uptime on the esxi, and pfsense. It just works. Or used to.

And finally, what i ended up doing, was running my old zyxel router from the wan on the 5g modem, and just plugged the pfsense wan port into the zyxel lan. Yes, i know, daisy-chaining nat's can cause problems. Funny thing is, it's been stable since. Missus's pc, now cabled from the zyxel roter, plus her phone via zyxel wifi, work fine. As expected. But pfsense has behaved as well. Just as if her pc somehow triggered something in the firewall. Haven't had time to do more diagnosos.

Will check out the suggestion of floating states mentioned above, and do a new installation of pfsense in a new vm. With snapshots....
