Was gonna say, as a greasy American, I hate a lot of us too lol.

I personally use cloudflare. Never had an issue with them.

Oh my god so cute. We love an orange boy.

Well im sold. Hes getting a heating pad.

He’s my little guy.

Oh yea, I’ll do what I gotta do, but its nothing so serious. Most people in my life know I like to tinker so when I say they give me grief, I mean it in a more joking way. Honestly, people will give me things they think i might wanna play with. Mostly old tech. And they like when I’m there to fix things so they get it.

I’m very blessed with good people in my life who understand my “compulsion” lol

Me and my dad have talked about it before and you’re absolutely right. Being able to fix somehing is just a great feeling.

And honestly, I bet if you take it apart and clean it, it’d probably continue behaving for you.

Everyone always gives me grief for keeping old stuff like this, but I bet i can find a use for just about anything. I try to keep what I think will be useful and I really just love fixing things if I can.

And that does sound interesting, maybe when I have some more spare time, I’ll look into that.

After experiencing how easy everything is to get to in this thing, you bet I’m gonna try and keep it running for a long time!

Koboldcpp has a pretty easy way to add a text db built right into it. You can use any model you want, and its pretty customizable.

What a great advertisement for almost any other launcher.

Lawnchair is my go to if anyone wants a pretty simple and customizable launcher that respects your privacy.

I’m with you there. Plumbing I would avoid. I could do it, but like you said, flooding or just water damage in general makes me think twice. Gas I would be more ok with but even then I’d be wary of it.

Exactly. I’d recommend everyone try and fix things themselves at least sometimes. I try and fix small things I don’t want to have to buy again if I can.

Sometimes it makes sense to pay someone, but its a good skill to have.

If you like working with your hands, look into education for the trades. People that do trade jobs are only getting more and more rare these days so theres a good chance you can get a job that way and it pays waaay better than retail in a lot of cases.

Also like others said, knowing someone is also ideal.

I’m making chilli right now and put black beans in it. I like black beans in my chilli.

Please anyone feel free to correct me if I get anything wrong.

From my understanding, Apps dont change based on the profile they are installed in. They are the same exact app regardless of profile. Profiles just serve to separate apps for different users and further separate apps from each other with them being in thier own directories.

Not all apps that you install from the Google playstore require google play services. Some apps will run just fine without them if the developer decided not to use them during development. If they did decide to use googleplay services, the app may function OK or completely break. Just depends on the app in question.

As far as I am aware, updates will happen separately for profiles. Most apps that are installed via googleplay will install automatically. Same goes for fdroid apps in most cases unless specified otherwise.

I’m not sure what you mean by your last question, fail how? Fail to open or update?

Also, profiles aren’t really necessary for grapheneos to separate google play services from other apps or whatnot because they are already sandboxed. I dont use them myself for this reason.

I personally don’t consider my skills quite good enough to be compensated for if I’m honest. And I like helping people here on Lemmy, especially for a opensource project. I can’t contribute as much but I do what I can.

So yea shoot me a DM and we can see what works.

If you need a simple icon, I’ve done some graphic design before for the loops community on Lemmy as well as others. If you DM me, let me know what you’d like, I’d be happy to help out, no charge.

I do get that. Less things in the car means less things that can break which yea, I’m all for to a point. I just can’t take heat, I need the ac man.

And I would love to have an electric car if I drove less than 100 miles a day, if chargers were more common, if all chargers used the same common charger port and connector, and if I had a house go charge if at. Also if swaping batteries wasnt a nightmare. That should be the easiest thing to do on an electric car aside from maintaining motors or swapping other common components.
