Cylindrical cells won’t swell up. They go open circuit if they start building up pressure.

For android, run yt-dlp in termux. For PC, use yt-dlp.

It’s a bit trickier than that. They won’t run from USB power alone. The battery has to be replaced with a battery eliminator circuit.

If the phone is new enough, it may have an option to prevent the battery from fully charging. If it does, you can enable that and leave the battery in until it’s completely worn out. That way you have a built in UPS.

I thought the Pi 5 was too expensive when it came out. This is just ridiculous. For most uses, a used PC, phone or tablet would be a much better choice. The only Pi I would even consider using is the Zero 2W, but they’ve been out of stock all year.

I would have to be crazy enough to use google photos for them to scan mine.

This will just result in more companies blocking France.

Okular opens markdown files. If you are running a distro with KDE, markdown files will just open without having to install anything.

It’s just one thing after another. I already had to make sure every computer and VPS has the updated CA certificates earlier today. Now I just finished disabling all of my web servers. I hope Debian doesn’t take forever getting the patch out.

I wonder how long will it take for someone to figure out a way to install SteamOS on it?

It’s rare to find a domain that will renew that cheap. The ones that I’ve seen are usually a sale price or they don’t include WHOIS privacy. There are a couple that will renew for around $4 like .top and .de.

What players and operating systems handle that automatically? I have to adjust it manually in VLC and Kodi. It’s usually around 500-600 ms on Android phones and FireTV sticks. Linux isn’t as bad, but it’s still around 100 ms.

I use headphones and a bluetooth transmitter that support aptX LL. The latency is less than 40 milliseconds, which is barely noticeable. With other codecs, the latency is hundreds of milliseconds, so you have to mess with sync settings in the video player.

They don’t support aptX LL, so they are useless for video. The high latency will cause the audio to be very noticeably out of sync with the video.

FreeDNS works well if you don’t have your own domain. You’re limited to 5 records though.

If you have a domain, many registrars have an API that can be used for dynamic DNS.

It certainly wouldn’t be the first. A plane hit multiple cars last month, unfortunately 5 people were killed.

All of those hard drives will produce quite a bit of heat just sitting idle.

Steam is significantly slower to open that Heroic or Lutris.

Have you checked the price of stamps lately? In the US, they are $0.82 now. You should use a carrier pigeon instead. You can even use IPoAC to send an e-mail by pigeon.

There are a number of issues with pfSense. The updates for the community edition are slow. They are trying to push everyone to the paid version. You can’t even download an ISO to install it offline anymore. You have to make a Netgate account to download an installer that needs an internet connection to run.

NTP is network time protocol. It’s used to get the time over the network. Using a GPS receiver as the clock source makes it more accurate and allows it to work without an internet connection.

I’m running pfSense on an old Intel Atom fanless mini PC with 6 ethernet ports. I use pfBlocker for ad blocking. I also installed a GPS module in it. That’s the clock source for the NTP server. I was planning on replacing it with something newer, but that’s not happening until memory prices come down.

I would not recommend using pfSense anymore. My next router will be running OPNsense. I will probably install Adguard Home on that for ad blocking.
