Good news is that Pixel phones prices drop fast. For example, the price of Pixel 9 dropped from 900€ to 550€ in less than one year.

Graphene OS posted that having the device trees is not a strict requirement.

Just as a side node, make sure to backup your immich / nextcloud services too.

I might be wrong, but it sounds like hosted nextcloud, not a completely new platform.

Thats from the current nextcloud docs:

We strive to bring Artificial Intelligence features to Nextcloud. This section highlights these features, how they work and where to find them. All of these features are completely optional. If you want to have them on your server, you need install them via separate Nextcloud Apps.

Note that Hungary and Austria will get a smaller 5,300mAh pack.

Seems interestingly specific. Why these two countries?

While this phone looks great, I’m still mad that they omitted the proximity sensor in previous models (F3, F4 at least).

My F3 sucked as a phone, because it often picked up calls automatically or called emergency numbers from my pocket.

I don‘t think religion is to blame for what some abuse it for.

Even for pixel devices, it can take a while. Unless you choose to install it manually.

You’re right, that’s an option. I could set this up at my router, this way it would be almost indistinguishable from IPv6 via my ISP.

Its really not that hard. Sadly, my ISP doesn’t offer IPv6 yet, but for my vServer, enabling IPv6 was just a checkbox during creation. Then, you need to make sure that the service (e.g. webserver) also listens on the IPv6 address and maybe tweak the configuration of the webserver to actually serve websites via IPv6. Also, check your firewall settings. Lastly, you need to set the DNS AAAA records and you’re done.

“With the latest update, you are now unable to read any encrypted PMs before may 2025. Sorry for the inconvenience.”

You’re angry that new(er) phones get new features? This is … interesting.

But still, it will likely work with every Pixel phone released in the last two years, so there are some models available to choose from and they’re not too expensive (Pixel 8a and 9a).

Great that multi monitor is now on the feature list. I’ve tried connecting my pixel to a single screen (which worked), but never got dual screen to work.

Just tried it, looks like a feed of random wikipedia articles. The first article that came up was about some french village, not exactly engaging to be honest.

They say that any AMD powered handheld should work. This is not a contradiction to your post:

Currently, expanded support includes devices with AMD hardware and an NVME drive, targeted toward handheld devices. Please note, support for all devices that is not officially ‘Powered by SteamOS’ is not final (currently anything that is not a Steam Deck or Legion Go S)

From what I’ve read in the last few month, it will probably not be ready for the release of android 16.

I mostly try to read the docs, but sadly good documentation is pretty rare.

I’m currently following this guide to setup caddy reverse proxy with coraza web app firewall.

But be warned, this whole rabbit hole of WAF isn’t trivial, some protections don’t work well with some apps (e.g. portainer triggers some rules about system command execution) and it needs some tuning. I personally set it up to learn more about WAFs because I believe it will help me in my career, but I would not blindly recommend it to everyone.

Approaches like crowdsec and fail2ban seem much more suitable for selfhosters – and keep your server software updated.

Great idea. Would be even better if we turned lemmy into an AI only social network. Thousands of bots will create content, vote and comment. And all this could be done without user interaction.

Finally, even the super niche communities will have hundreds of bot comment per day, and all human lemmy users will leave voluntarily (thus reducing the need for moderation).
