Yep, you can get an m.2 NVMe to USB3 converter very cheap and stick any m.2 nvme drive in it. (Also sata versions exist for m.2 sata)
Much safer solution for your data.

I wonder how financially viable it is nowadays
I had the same thing on Bazzite just with the local network, not a VPN.
I believe it has to do with the firewall. You have to open the port both incoming and outgoing for 53317.
But you literally have to be on the same network, so for example if both devices are on the same local network (hence local in the name) and your phone is on a VPN but your computer is not on a VPN, then it won’t work.
It should work if you VPN into your local network remotely so that both devices are on the same LAN, however, then that won’t work anyway because you have to have physical access to the device to accept the transfer (you could probably use a remote desktop to do that, but then it is getting complicated)
LocalSend.
No more USBs ever (outside of install media). So so simple, fast, and works on all devices and FOSS.
It is really the best UX of any file sharing app I have experienced (outside of airdrop I guess, but obvious problems there)
Okular is also a favorite of mine.
Gadgetbridge in just about the only one.
The problem is that the watches themselves use proprietary BS Bluetooth protocols with their own cryptic values to stop people from decoding their own devices unless you use their app…
I wish I could get my polar H10 to work with it… For now I have to use the polar app and export manually via the web interface…
No, ssds have a ton of wear leveling where data is shifted around and not deleted. Deleting data wears out the SSD, so it is held as much as possible with the controller. SSDs are like 10% bigger than advertised just to prolong the life.
Even if you write the whole thing with random data then zeros, it will still have blocks in unaccessible (to normal users) places that contain old data.
Always best to use disk encryption or keep any sensitive data in filesystem encryption like plasma vaults or fscrypt.
Tons of stuff are not on fdroid due to requirements by fdroid, a longer process to push releases, etc…
It works for many apps, but there is IzzyOnDroid for much faster releases as well as dozens of fdroid repos for specific projects by default available on NeoStore.
I am not experienced enough to know the ins and outs of why fdroid is so difficult and slow for some devs, but it has been someone limited in apps at times because of it.
Really depends on what you consider grinding.
Pretty much all MMOs or PVEs have you grinding for gear (helldivers 2 I don’t feel is grindy in comparison, but some do)
Survival games like ark, valheim, etc… Have you grinding for bases and the next section of the game
Pretty much all PvP games (CS2, valorant, apex, starcraft, Rocket league, etc…) have you grinding out muscle memory skills
The antithesis to these are instance-based games where at max you grind aesthetic gimmicks, but in single player games they don’t have those like REPO where you always reset and fall guys where it is minigame based
The problem with these games is since you don’t have a “reward for work” (grinding), people get bored of them.
Holy shit I never knew that.
I really thought it was one of my apps that I used that wasn’t Foss because it was so useful.
Now I want to use it more!
Though as a kind of “exception”, I think that charging poles for electric cars should have modbus or Ethernet and a local protocol (matter maybe?) to use with smart home systems for automation and cars should have a standard affordable way to check errors and status of sensors.
You can also try out photoprism for that. Immich is best for an all-in-one solution as a replacement for google photos.
Photoprism also has face recognition, maps, and many more features geared towards photography than immich.
I realized after using photoprism that I am too basic for that haha
Watch out. A lot of controversy over rustdesk because they do some strange things and route all traffic through their server in China or something.
(Not up to date on it, just have heard it many times in passing, worth looking in to)
Read and think critically. It is all arbitrary. If we cut off people at 18 or 24, why shouldn’t we cut them off at 50? There is scientific evidence both ways.
Not to mention that IQ is pretty much a farce and completely biased by certain types of education and only measures a small subset of human brain function, The cutoff would also be completely arbitrary.
Not everything is a personal indictment on you or your beliefs.

That is a quite popular opinion judging by the votes. I think they function quite differently, and are useful for different things, which might be more unpopular.
BSD and MIT are more like “public domain” or “creative commons” licenses. Some people genuinely just don’t care and want literally anyone to use their work.
Libraries, languages, APIs, OS’s, etc… Work well because they have mass adoption. They have mass adoption (often) because people get the freedom to use them during their paid time. Companies are exploitative and evil, but often their dev and engineer employees aren’t.
Copy left licenses (GPL, AGPL, CERN-OHL-S to not forget about open source hardware) really shine for end products like hardware, applications, hosted software, games, etc… Where you want to preserve a “unique” end product against theft, exploitation, and commercialization, and really care about having not everyone be able to do whatever they want.
Then cap the voting age at 50 when cognitive decline of the frontal lobe really kicks in, if we are talking about fully developed brain function.
Neural plasticity has even declined once you are past your 20s. One of the reasons people find it much much harder to learn a new language past then, for example.
reasoning, memory, and speed of reasoning reaches a decline threshold when you are around 40.
My unpopular opinion is I guess that humans were never evolved to live as long as we do (and certainly not meant to labor as long) so everything in our brain gets very wonky. Empathy is also one of the things stunted with age. There is a reason the “grump old man” trope exists.
EDIT: Maybe I wasn’t clear enough. Pretty much everything regarding age is arbitrary because you are “developing” until your mid 20s and then you start declining, brain-wise. It is all arbitrary. And then the above poster doesn’t even check that I am a different person than the original comment and sends me a hate message somehow thinking that I am wishing death on him (why would anyone wish for a stranger to die?) for simply pointing out that our brains get weirder with age especially because we are forced to work for much longer and often have less empathy.
Meanwhile the EU probably pushes for the 100th time to backdoor all communication encryption backed by fascists and Spain trying to put down the Catalans…
And the UK doing the same thing and also a big surveillance state…
Sadly nowhere is great right now.
They are a massive megacorp though. It always leaves me to wonder “how much”.
Tons of capitalist companies do stock options where “technically” the employees own a share of the company, though that percentage is usually extremely small, even collectively such that they have no decision power. I can’t help but think that it is similar with huawei, but with better marketing.
And you are often paying 140-200 for a pi nowadays to make it have the same usability as a laptop (pi, power supply, sata hat, data drive because SD cards simply fail after a while under server IO) while you can get cheap used laptops for 0-100.
So unless you are running it for more than half a decade (which rarely happens with selfhosters for a main server), you are probably spending more in total on the pi.
