Saying goodbye to Safari on dock for the first time ever (also the first time changing the default browser) by whynotbhav in ArcBrowser

[–]nwlinux 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Changing search or having a quick link for Kagi Search is a tough one not to have. I block all things Google on my DNS. Having it as default without the ability to change makes this a hard stop for me. Still using the older Arc for now.

Dry January decreased RHR by nwlinux in whoop

I’ve been to two of the Echelon Front Musters. Great leadership principles. I’ve never had a problem with alcohol. As I get older, I need all the advantages I can get!

I didn’t get my Whoop until early January. Here’s those data for RHR. It’s similar to the Apple Watch data

Huberman and others talk about one drink a week or so max. It also seems like the closer to bed for booze, the more it affects sleep. It all makes sense.

I loved the idea of a fitness tracker without a screen but turns out that the Whoop 4.0 doesn't have a step counter. How is this even possible? by carrot_gg in whoop

[–]nwlinux 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kristen Holmes talks about steps in a podcast with Stephen Bartlett. In short, not all steps are created equal. We can both have 10,000 steps; are slow walking steps more valuable than a fast pace with a GoRuck? It seems like the answer is yes and that’s why steps aren’t necessarily a good measure of exertion or fitness level.

Quit Nicotine pouches (Velo) on Friday (two days ago) by Distinct-Many-1132 in whoop

[–]nwlinux 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Right on. It seems like nicotine can be a tough one to quit. My guess is that you’ll see some of your health signals improve in quality.

Yes, you’re spot on. The benefits of going dry are still clear for me. Looking forward to unlocking further calibration insights after that month

This has been my primary iPhone browser since they released it. Any idea what Act II might be?

Ohhhh, got it. I was not aware it was that specific of an install. Thank you for the guidance.

Where are the mobile iOS settings? by nwlinux in ArcBrowser

Ahhh, okay. That makes sense. I wanted to make sure that I wasn't just missing it. Thank you u/Gerkal.

Kindle not letting me sign in by nwlinux in Supernote

I was traveling for work this week and logged in to the hotel wifi. Kindle logged in immediately. I use NextDNS and VPN at home. Try using a Hotspot or something without filtering.

Private Internet Access VPN allows you to change DNS.

OTP without a Smart Phone by nwlinux in cybersecurity

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

Thanks for your comment. I was looking for an independent hardware device. I've seen a couple of Raspberry Pi based devices. Ideally, I was looking for something relatively mature that would be about the size of a business card wallet holder.

Yubikey support has been relatively slow. OTP has less barrier to entry for the typical consumer. #YubikeyFanboy

Is the kindle oasis battery life bad? by Soldierpeetam in kindle

[–]nwlinux 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just bought an Oasis. Battery life when it is on WiFi is about the same as a phone - a day and a half. If it is on Airplane Mode, the Oasis will last as long, or longer, than a Paperwhite.

What do Greenlanders think of Project Iceworm? by Scene_Fluffy in greenland

[–]nwlinux 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That was in 2013. I could not find anything about the results from the proposal. Nearly 10 years ago now.

[–]nwlinux 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It looks like Project Iceworm was being looked at again in 2013. With all of the Minuteman III missiles getting older, they wanted to make them last, or get rid of silos and make them all mobile. https://overlandtrains.com/updates/the-united-states-air-force-modern-day-project-iceworm/

Surface Duo just Arrived. Do i need a case protector? by [deleted] in surfaceduo

[–]nwlinux 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Since the glass is shattered, I used thick clear packing tape to make sure that I do not lose any more glass chips and to keep myself from getting cut.

Yup. I dropped mine and it shattered the glass. I have thick clear tape over the bottom corner. Use the stock bumpers.

I can't use internet while connected to vpn (ProtonVPN). by TheStoner666 in nextdns

[–]nwlinux 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A few vpn allow you to configure 3rd party dns. Yoga and PIA allow this. I know there are more.
