Love my old Garmin vivoactive 2? Screen looks like shit but it's readable in any setting. It's pretty basic, use it for cycling as it talks to my chest-strap heart rate monitor.

I've got a pixel watch too, it's a typical 1st gen product. Half baked but gets the job done, battery is an all-day for me (no Sim model). It's got some scratches and blemishes all over the face, see how long it kicks around for.

Shedding weight fast is a great method for excess skin that requires cosmetic surgery to remove. Slowly losing weight can reduce but not eliminate the requirements for surgery.

Good friend of mine lost almost half his body weight in around 4 years, his arms, legs are all OK but his stomach area needs some work. I can't imagine the hardship people "competing" on the biggest loser need to go through once the season is over.

Discord, Spotify and other electron applications will work fine in a browser. Rather than installing packages that are causing you issues just run them in Firefox.

It's not a hardware issue but a combination of software issues.

Unsure why your downvoted, aluminium cans have a plastic liner on the inside. Their "better" than plastic bottles but still contribute to waste plastic.

Discord is trash, had issues with a KBDFans product, something as simple as a search of a forum would have given me the solution. I had to talk to a human to get the required information. They sent me a link to a firmware to download and all was good.

If I was able to search a forum it would have been a 2 minute job, but I wasted someone else's time, on the other side of the globe.

Gallagher were great at that, rubbish solution for "teaching" staff about phishing which would infuriate all staff caught in the net. Would come from internal email addresses too which, if one person's email / credentials are compromised they've got bigger fish to fry.

I mean it's not the worst. Is it still https? Or are they serving plain ol http? My internal services (at home) are mostly https, but the certs are self signed so browsers will flag them as "insecure".

Firefox is fine on mobile in my eyes.

At least the Android version, even on my 5 year old Exynos phone it does what I need / want from a browser. Allows (some) extensions, lets me zoom wherever I want to on any page, has a reader mode and is snappy enough on old hardware.

Chrome tries to be / do far too much for me, just fuck off and let me browse the web. I do like the dynamic colours that Chrome on mobile uses on different webpages, is hot.

However Chrome gives me dirty Microsoft vibes, and it's pretty hard to shake that stank.

If your on iOS welcome to the walled garden. Hope you live in the EU.

You mean pump up the jam?

I've got 3 cameras running on a vlan, with no access to the internet.

Frigate / Home Assistant + tail scale (want to move away from this service) let me see my cameras remotely, receive notifications from events and even look at events / stills on my watch.

I have some cheap 5mp Reolink camseras, not the best for frigate but get the job done.

I've started using Geddit, a 3rd party app that doesn't use the Reddit API. And it's still better than the app they develop in-house.

I rarely visit Reddit, but when searching for something niche there always seems to be a few threads over there sadly.

But into our religion and follow our rules now, so you can go to the happy cloud place later.
