Thanks for sharing that page, super insightful!

governorkeagan ,

I saw an extension the other day that let you choose which mapping service you want to use when clicking a link to a map. You could click on a Google Map link but have it open in OpenStreetMap. If I find it again I’ll update here

Edit: Found it, MapSwap

Slightly off topic but thanks for the reminder that I have a Pixelfed account lol. I really need to find more accounts to follow, my feed is basically two accounts posting photos

governorkeagan ,

Never thought I'd learn how to use tar on a meme post.

I've got two Sandisks (both 64GB but different models) that have both been through the washing machine multiple times (accidentally) and haven't failed yet. They are probably about 3 years old at this point but I can't remember.

Curiosity got the better of me, so I searched what it means. I did come across another interesting phrase....

Futa-te cangurii

governorkeagan ,

Every Door is another good alternative to StreetComplete.

I've got a family plan with Proton so I'm interested to see how they implement Standard Notes into the plan.

What non-FOSS software have you been unable to quit?

For me, Google video search, Google books (Internet Archive is good, but doesn't always have the same stuff), Adobe InDesign (but in the process of learning LaTeX), and Typewise. As for the Google stuff, I liked Whoogle a lot, but almost all their instances seem to have been blocked or shut down. Also, apologies if this is...

governorkeagan ,

Just want to add this comparison between Google Maps and OpenStreetMap. Google Maps is definitely better in some areas and OSM is better in others.

governorkeagan ,

I’ve really enjoyed using MagicEarth. I’d probably move to Organic Maps if they implemented routing for other public transport besides trains.

Is there anything unsavory about ProtonMail?

For some reason I have it in the back of my mind that they were at one point accused of being a honeypot for US intelligence because of their association with MIT. Probably complete BS, but maybe not. Are they as open source as they claim to be? Looks like they're on github. F-Droid seems to think they have some Google libraries...

governorkeagan ,

Been using them for 2 years now, I’ve got nothing negative to say. Really happy with their service

governorkeagan ,

alt frontend if anyone wants

governorkeagan ,

This isn’t something I really thought about but it’s so true. For the most part, we only use public transport to get to gigs in Ireland. You’ll have a couple that are further out (think small holdings/farms) but generally you’re close enough to a bus or train.

governorkeagan ,

I’ve had the same when using a VPN on my PC. Have a look at libredirect, that would probably help with this issue.

governorkeagan OP ,

Already done. Still waiting for a response from them.

governorkeagan OP ,

I’ve tried with a couple different servers but no luck (Proton VPN). I don’t necessarily need the VPN to browse here but I occasionally have it left on from other sites.

governorkeagan OP ,

I might be wrong but I think the site is geo blocked. I’ve sent links to family that live outside of the country and they weren’t able to open them.

governorkeagan OP ,

Adverts.ie

governorkeagan OP ,

My VPN server is located in the same country as the site (Ireland)

supermarket club cards

Hey I'm sure you all know how sketchy club cards are for collecting your data. But I do begrudge paying slightly higher prices just for valuing my privacy. I was wondering if there was any way to sign up to these things whilst limiting the data they have access to. Would it be enough to sign up with fake details and never use...

governorkeagan ,

Thank you for sharing internet stranger. I was slightly confused

governorkeagan OP ,

Took a screenshot and rejected straight away.

governorkeagan OP ,

I pay for it - family plan. The screen after this is about where I want my ads shown in the app…a paying customer shouldn’t be seeing ads.

governorkeagan OP ,

I’m using Proton Mail as my main email. They have an option for forwarding emails from Gmail/Outlook to Proton. I just haven’t done it yet because I almost never use Outlook

governorkeagan ,

I’m reading this in 2025 /s

governorkeagan OP ,

True. I thought I’d do the research anyways.

governorkeagan OP ,

That looks interesting. I was kind of expecting that it might be challenging to find exactly what I am looking for.

governorkeagan ,

On a side not. Is it just me or does Amazon never follow the delivery instructions?

governorkeagan ,

Just added a post there as well.

governorkeagan ,

Saving this for when I get my NAS (eventually)

I only discovered nitter a couple months ago, super sad to see it go

The Irish government wants to pass a law that could see you or your loved ones jailed for possession of memes, cartoons or any content that could be deemed "hateful".

The Bill includes no definition of hate and is wide open to abuse by bad actors. Defend free speech – say no to this legislation, and any legislation of is kind... Anywhere!...

I would love to see your script! I’m in desperate need of a better backup strategy for my video projects
