Yeah, I used to use yt-dl(whatever) but Seal is just so much more convenient

Well something is excluding the other

Duuuude. This is awesome. But I still can't edit calendar events on mobile if there's another participant added. There are many simple things that need attention.

I water almost every day. How do I know if it's too much?

No, I was intentional about word choice. There must be some reason, I just have no idea what it is

Most of my tomato plants are doing really well. But the one in the cage highlighted in red started failing a few weeks ago. I fertilized with some Miracle grow I had lying around and it didn't improve. Then I got some Tomato Tone. That did nothing. The plant kept getting worse and worse and now it's just a husk. I'm afraid blue is following next and I'm concerned about purple. Here's another angle for some more context. .

Any thoughts?

That's what makes it so good: both kids and adults can get something out of it

What percentage of Android phones are actually running it? I get that it's brand new and over time more and more phones will report the location of trackers, but are there any metrics on current "market saturation" (for lack of a better word)?

I just got my Pebblebee clips yesterday that I pre-ordered a few months ago. I wanted to test them out so I sent one in my kid's backpack to daycare today (which is a legit use case I had in mind when buying these, particularly when we leave him with a babysitter).

When I try to check on the location, it says "last seen at 7:45" which is when I dropped him off, implying that my phone was the last to ping the tracker. So that means none of the teachers' phones, nor any of the other parents' phones have pinged the tracker. It's not a big daycare but he's one of the first to arrive. There should have been at least 2 dozen other phones near his backpack since then. This brings me back to my question about how many phones would you expect to report the location of a tracker.

New OS for Pixel 3 (self.android)
submitted 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago) by akilou to c/[email protected]

I have an ancient Pixel 3 that still works. I'd like to install a new, third-party OS. Which would you recommend?

I can see that there are many: Lineage, Calyx, /e/, Graphene, .... How do I make the decision? Can all of them work on a phone as old as my Pixel 3?

Edit: holy shit, I just installed Lineage OS on my lunch break! I've installed "alternative" OSes before on computers but never on a phone. I just followed the instructions (which were a little confusing as there were nested steps) and it's up and running!

I didn't plant it (intentionally) but it's definitely more than a weed. I'm letting it grow just to see what it wants to grow up to be.

Thoughts on folders (self.protonprivacy)
submitted 2 months ago by akilou to c/[email protected]

There's a button to "sort" folders in the settings which sorts the currently existing folders alphabetically. Then when you create a new folder it gets put at the bottom. Can we just have them sort alphabetically automatically?

Also when you click sort, it only sorts the top-level folders. The subfolders don't get sorted at all.

This is the kind of rough-around-the-edges stuff that Proton really needs to sort out before adding more and more services.

That the labels for the apps get truncated so you can only read "Proton" plus the first letter of the app. I'm only able to distinguish based on the icons which isn't great because Pass and Drive are similar colors, and Pass and VPN, and Drive and Calendar are similar shapes.

Send Tab not working (self.firefox)
submitted 3 months ago by akilou to c/[email protected]

I'm signed into Firefox on 4 devices. I can send tabs between all of them except from my work computer to my phone (other direction works). I can see the tabs open on my computer from my phone and tap to open it on my phone, but if I "send tab" from computer to phone, it never arrives.

I tried signing out on my phone and back in. Didn't work.

What else can I do to troubleshoot?

My wife is in the market for a new phone. Her highest priority is that it's small. She has it narrowed down to a Galaxy S23 or a Zenphone 10. The Samsung is the safe bet, especially since she's upgrading from an S10e. And even so, we can just got to T-mobile and play with one. The Zenphone is a bit riskier as it's unfamiliar. But it's small and gets great reviews. All of the options under "where to buy" have you buy it through, say, Target or Walmart, but it's online only. So she wouldn't be able to play with it until after unboxing and setting it up.

Proton Pass Windows App (sh.itjust.works)
submitted 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago) by akilou to c/[email protected]

Everyone's been complaining about having access to passwords offline. While you could always do that with the Android app (and I assume iOS), you can now do it in Windows.

Proton has been killing it lately. I feel like the speed at which they're rolling out new features and products has really picked up over the last year or so.

First off, I'd normally ask this question on a datahoarding forum, but this one is way more active than those and I'm sure there's considerable overlap.

So I have a Synology DS218+ that I got in 2020. So it's a 6 year old model by now but only 4 into its service. There's absolutely no reason to believe it'll start failing anytime soon, and it's completely reliable. I'm just succession planning.

I'm looking forward to my next NAS, wondering if I should get the new version of the same model again (whenever that is) or expand to a 4 bay.

The drives are 14 TB shucked easy stores, for what it's worth, and not even half full.

What are your thoughts?
