I need a new phone but I want to do this right
  • Generally agreed, I would actually try using as many services with their progressive web apps.

    The main reason I think they may need google services is the banking app. Mine will refuse to launch without google services installed.

  • You sound like the ideal candidate for a refurbished Pixel 7 / 8 from amazon.

    Test its hardware thoroughly on the stock os in case you need to return it.

    Install GrapheneOS using the Web installer.

    Install Droid-ify into your main profile from the f-droid web page. It looks much better than the official f-droid client and actually has a working auto-update

    Create a work profile. I use an app called Shelter as the work profile admin app. This allows you to auto freeze your big-tech apps to help with battery life / privacy. Install google services from the built-in GrapheneOS app store.

    Enjoy.

    Router died - Replacement/solution recommendations
  • BTW you CAN do DNS in a unifi gateway. It just requires making dnsmasq entries through shell. Perfect solution? No. But it gets you there with no additional hardware.

    This happens after 3-4 days of running the server, then I have to restart it manually.
  • I'm with catloaf. Consistent CPU soft locks point to a possible bad memory module or CPU.

    Clear CMOS.

    Try removing one memory module at a time.

    See if there is an option to disable hyperthreading in bios.

    Another thing to try is to remove the CPU, careful not to damage the LGA pins on the motherboard, and clean the CPU contacts with alcohol. Take care to ground yourself out and the case before handling the CPU out of socket.

    GrapheneOS questions/help
  • You are correct, a VPN connection does not bridge to another profile. You can install a VPN in said work profile. The always-on VPN settings in grapheneos have the work icon to indicate what VPN is in your work profile.

    Looks like Subnautica devs have been sneakily posting Subnautica 2 screenshots in the original game
  • I concur, the music score for the first game was a cut above the rest. I also found myself utterly unable to gain interest in the sequel. I think I tried on two occasions to get into Below Zero.

    MLS-4X Commando Now Available
  • I've been running the commando with light armor, jet pack, and a blitzer. I've grown addicted to the high-speed "ride or die" action that load out gives me.

    Because that load out requires that you keep moving to avoid damage, the EAT doesn't really work that well. The commando seems to fit the role well. That being said, its not that good against bugs.

  • See my other comment on this thread. Basically I have a shared mount point for the two containers and TubeSync writes video metadata to NFO files.

  • TubeSync has an option to write metadata to NFO files. Then you just tell Jellyfin to not run any scrapper and just use said NFO files. It's not perfect but it gets you a title and description for the video.

  • I use TubeSync to do the downloading and then have Jellyfin as a frontend player. Seems to work pretty good for me and was pretty quick to stand up in docker.

    Three bugged missions
  • I will say I had an extra buggy experience last night too. Out of nine or so missions, we couldn't extract from two of them because no one could enter the pelican. If you did manage to clip into the pelican, you would just hang out in there and never extract.

    I can see the justification of the pelican talking off immediately if its damaged. My team makes a conscious effort to consolidate samples and have that player enter the pelican first if it's smoking.
