I got my backlogged on my Etsy orders, and finally cleared it, sorry for delays in responding to anyone I had a few headaches with the last orders. I will reach out to all those who had messaged me #sync
While #XBrowserSync has not been abandoned, its developer has not had the time to update it the last few years. Hopefully folks will be able to help. I'm not aware of anything else comparable? #bookmarks#sync
I apparently have to “break in” the new iPod battery and drain it COMPLETELY then recharge it to 100% this may take a few days and apparently up to 20 hours to fully recharge as it’s a 3000mAh battery compared to the stock 650mAh battery. #sync
Hey @\WholeFoods you have a serious cybersecurity issue when I was shopping. Your manager is doing work at the front of the store laptop unlocked wide open, phone there, she had to step away. I could have easily swiped those devices and had access to information #sync
I’ve been spending a couple days comparing the audio quality of the modded iPod to my iPhone 12 Mini using my V-Moda Zn earbuds. Yeah the audio quality is way superior in the old iPod on mp3 than Apple Music with lossless 🤦♂️. #music#audiophile#apple#sync
Etsy backlog cleared: I had issues with one of my printers. I have cleared the backlog of flipper zero cases that were ordered. I will be packaging a fidget toy extra as an apology for the delay #sync
Since seeing the news bots for major news organizations start to appear on Mastodon, I have realized just how much Twitter hides news stories from going to your feed. #sync
I’ll be putting together @\umbrel as an electrum node in the near future to accompany my @\PiNode_XMR on a Pi4 I have laying around. But I may buy another @\thepine64 Rock64 with a PoE shield and 3D print another case like the prior one #sync#btc#xmr
Just a reminder you shouldn’t buy phones from @\ATT @\TMobile or @\Verizon you should buy them from the manufacturer directly! If you buy them from the carrier they often add bloatware/spyware and disable the ability to unlock the boot loader. #sync#infosec
That moment when you get so disatisfied with every mortgage calculator not having biweekly and overpayment options to play with for seeing how much you save that you learn python to do it. It will be on the GitHub shortly with the other tools https://github.com/ChiefGyk3D/budgeting_tools#sync
#Security#Nerds and #Experts of #Mastodon, I have a #Question for you.
.
.
I am attempting to de-#Google my digital life (as much as is possible at the moment). I got myself an #Android#MobilePhone that does not have Google services installed on it, and I am using #FDroid, #AuroraStore, #APKPure, etc. to get the apps, and using the #AppBrain#AdDetector and #DuckDuckGo's #App#Tracking#Protection (#Beta built into their mobile browser).
.
I am doing my best to use #minimal apps, and only getting ones that are not security focused when necessary. I am not logging into Google, or any other #BigSocial/ #BigData services except when necessary.
.
My question is, are there any #SMS / #Texting apps that allow you to login on the #Web and #sync messages to your phone (even if only on the same network), and a #keyboard that has #VoiceToText that does not use Google or #Microsoft? I am currently using #SwiftKey, but only until I figure out the #T9 app I am using with the KB (HYBRID phone running Android 11).
The immaturity of @\GOP has caused me as someone who is an independent to not consider ANY Republican because that association is just toxic right now. These assholes want to destroy the average Americans ability to live by not even growing the fuck up, and paying our bills #sync
Had a printer fail last week forgot to update everyone, it delayed some Etsy orders. Hoping all orders to be done by this weekend or early next week at latest apologies for the delay #sync
I'm really tired of this childish behavior from @\TMobile @\Verizon could y'all stop locking your phones to your carrier, I just had to return a perfectly good Pixel 7A because I couldn't get GrapheneOS setup on it. It should be our device from day 0 financing plan or not #sync
It’s hard to take @\GOP seriously with their claims on crime and locking up criminals when @\RepSantosNY03 is still allowed to be there. I can’t even look at a Republican this election or even the past couple ones due to issues with whom the GOP allowed to be associated with #sync
Well that settles that my #twitch alerts won’t be on Twitter anymore, but they still work on Mastodon as I wrote my own program and open sourced it to post to mastodon when live. I may add Twitter functions but honestly Mastodon is giving so much engagement I may not bother #sync
I am absolutely disappointed and appalled at the blatant security issues with both @\Steam and @\WarThunder as they require mobile apps for 2FA. Why the hell are you trying to reinvent the wheel when you're not involved in #InfoSec. It should be standard TOTP or FIDO #sync
Allow me if you will to showcase the difference on #BlueSky#Mastodon and #Twitter. Bluesky admittedly doesn’t have hashtags and far less followers (39) but Mastodon having only around 900 followers far outpaced Twitter with 1,150 followers. This is why I prefer Mastodon #sync
