You all are awesome, thank you for your work implementing this!

Just wait until you get to Transunion's site. It is a dumpster fire of consisting of the worst sign up I've ever seen, "Contact our social team" and "If you haven't logged in for awhile create a new account. I could not believe how awful it was. I had to just call and do it over the phone.

Genuinely excited for this. I enjoy the scanning and landmark points but getting to them was a chore at anything over 500 meters. With this I'll be able to survey planets faster and hopefully escort some of these random injured NPCs back their base/ship more quickly. Maybe even take Andreja out on the Paradiso volleyball court like they did in the trailer at 0:54. Nice work devs and editing team!

It was in response to the Naomi Brockwell post she did on Twitter about businesses using WiFi, Bluetooth and Location Services to track you in public locations. You can Google it directly "NBTV Advice from Defcon" or this link: https://nbtv.substack.com/p/advice-from-defcon-turn-off-bluetooth

I am a Tasker enthusiast and when I can automate something simple on my phone I like to. I set a simple task to turn off WiFi when my home network is not detected so my phone doesn't scan and report my location to businesses. However, this functionality is now nonexistent and the developer has to ask people not to one-star their app because it doesn't work. My phone is my phone and killing my ability to use it as such for whatever security theater Google is playing at is why I root my device. Anyone else still rooting for similar reasons?

While I agree music service has a lot of good things about it, it is not good for the long term. Lesser known artists are not paid that much, it is endless billing for something you'll never own and it will only ever cost you more year over year. I would considering using music streaming for artist discovery and playlist creation rather than a long term plan for music listening. Look into bandcamp and artist pages you love to find where you can buy your favorites of their music because when music streaming becomes unsustainable, and it will, you won't be left with nothing.

I actually came here to echo this exact sentiment. I was on Lastpass until their first breach and then on Bitwarden both cloud and self-hosted until a few months ago when I set up with Proton. I liked Bitwarden so I put off trying ProtonPass. One weekend I set it up and ended up putting my 2FA items in as well. It feels absolutely seamless to use. The email aliasing for websites is so easy for making new website accounts. In my desktop and laptop browser the way it automatically offers to autofill the 2FA is so clean. I can't see myself going back unless Proton gets prohibitively more expensive or the product declines in usability/security. If you are currently using Proton's suite of apps give Protonpass a try. You can easily import from Last pass/Bitwarden and use both to compare side by side.

Looking like this leak might have some merit surrounding the land vehicle teaser shown awhile back by Bethesda. I watched the video and I am actually excited for what I am seeing since I believe this is the first working vehicle like this in a Bethesda game. Also I will be able to get to the planet features/anomalies I need to scan faster.

Archinstall works until it doesn't. Recently I tried Luks and BTRFS more than 6 times leading to a script error each and every time. Could I have done something simpler and archinstall work? Possibly. But it offers those things out of the box and for it to fail each and every time ultimately led me back to the wiki to do it manually.

Sounds like you just need two "Mail Plus" accounts. You get 1 custom domain per account and 10 email addresses per user.

Kroger owns a few chains outside of their main name so here's a short list of their sub-companies to avoid as well:

"* Supermarkets – Kroger, Ralphs, Dillons, Smith’s, King Soopers, Fry’s, QFC, City Market, Owen’s, Jay C, Pay Less, Baker’s, Gerbes, Harris Teeter, Pick ‘n Save, Metro Market, Mariano’s

  • Multi-department stores – Fred Meyer
  • Dillons Marketplace, Fry’s Marketplace, King Soopers Marketplace, Kroger Marketplace, Smith’s Marketplace
  • Price-impact warehouse stores – Food 4 Less, Foods Co"

Yeah that was my suspicion. I was thinking it was "100%" in the app but not in reality.

Edit: This appears to no longer exist for me on the August hotfix. Thank you all for your feedback!

On the Android 15 Beta you can get to this page by visiting Settings > System > Device Diagnostics > Component Health > Battery Status

I think my question for you all is anyone's percentage reported as less than 100%? I do have a relatively new phone (Pixel 8 Pro) but after 136 charge cycles I would expect to lose a percentage point or two so I was just seeing if anyone had different stats.

Lawnchair is being updated it is just only being updated on its Github page.

Love this list and I use Pear launcher currently on my Android 15 beta device. It has some quirks but overall I am happy with it over stock. Especially since I can add folders to the bottom bar.
