See, this is kind of impossible because of security reasons.

Imagine logging in on gmail, going to facebook (without any further action in between) and being able to read your emails. That would be convenient but catastrophic!

Yes, I know, FB and gmail are two different things, but the concept of auth is the same. A website saves a cookie in your browser and uses it to check whether you’re authenticated or not. And that website can AND SHOULD only be able to read its own cookies.

well, no offense, but what else do you expect, if you don’t select the tile that includes 1px of the motorbike that’s part ofthe surrounding tiles? get over it, man!

• Leave home network => Turn on VPN

you can give Flutter a try. It’d be perfect for such an app.

I’d automate the shit out of this one if I were to write an app.

thinking of something like this one

• using phones google location for tracking (or something else)
• hava a Bluetooth beacon in the car
• each time you get in the car, beacon connects to phone
• app “tracks” the collected location data as “driving”

The search is still bad, imho… If I search for a place, osmand doesn’t show the address in the list. So, I’d have to go through each of the items to find the one that I’m looking for.

yeah, I tried osmand, but the UI is just “meh”

I’m almost degoogled, in the sense that no penny goes to them.

• I use Fastmail for mail/calendars
• Revanced/Smarttube for YT (no ads, no money)
• Immich instead of Photos

The only thing I can’t really get rid of, is Google Maps.

At this point they just might contribute to kbin then. If they know Java, they probably know PHP too, or at least it’d be easier to pick up.

Yes! It should work :-D

Regarding enriching MB. Honestly, I don’t have time for that.

I’m from one of the slavic countries and there are so many missing albums, it’d take me a lifetime to contribute.

I haven’t had much success with the arr-scripts, whereas with the lidarr:plugins + deemix I had.

I did not test it, but It should work, since it only pulls the albums, and is not involved in the download process at all.

Oh, and checks for existing ones, so there are no duplicates.

I’d argue that it certainly isn’t. Possibly the previous owner ran it under heavy loads, constantly, resulting in a degrading of the components.

Or they themselves were unfortunate to receive a faulty unit that started to misbehave randomly, and are now selling it after the warranty period.

yes, and that consistency is not guaranteed on the second-gand market either.

I’m sure if I dig deep enough, I might find threads like these for any hardware.

Just look at Apple. Their MacBook lineup has been a mess since 2016, and they are a “reputable” and overpriced non-aliexpress company.

And yes, you’re fucked if you buy something from Ali and it turns out faulty. But you’re also fucked if you buy second-hand. The risk of loss is equal.

When I hear “audiophile”, I truly never think about licking the banana-plugs, so nope.

There are also some popular YT channels like Computerphile and Numberphile

You’re comparing apples to oranges here and this has literally nothing to do with the hardware that was mentioned in this thread. They all have soldered mobile CPUs. The N100, N305, 4700u, etc.

I haven’t updated bios on my main pc ever since I built it… so I think the concerns you’re talking about are more hit than miss.

name a feature…

No need to, they both have their place for sure… I don’t know their features, and I probably don’t even use most of them. but openwrt is solid enough for potato hardware, whereas opnsense is not. Also, my point was to show that both operating systems run on the aliexpress hardware, counteracting your claim that some systems don’t boot.

I run a trigkey (AMD 5700u) as my NAS (unraid) and homelab, and a CW p-5 (N305) as my router (opnsense), and have no problems at all. So they for sure boot Linux and FreeBSD, which is 90% the case.

Unlike some old second hand, new hardware is more powerful and energy efficient.
