My Google Pixel Bud fell into a bush the other day. Despite knowing its basic vicinity I still couldn't find it. I used the find feature which makes it ring loud but still had issues as cars on the road were too noisy. I had to wait until after 8PM to try again. Thankfully I managed to but it really wasn't easy!

The trouble is Samsung is only for it's own ecosystem. The Google version should render the Samsung one obsolete.

Has Apple addressed the security issues that Google was holding out for before they released their tracking network?

Mod. I hate that this mod keeps being advertised without mentioning it's a mod in the title.

Moved to Proton mail from GMail. At the same time I purchased a new domain and got SimpleLogin to create new aliases for all my sites and services. The only site that knows my real address is Proton itself and SimpleLogin.

I also ditched Chrome for Firefox. I honestly prefer Chrome but hate how controlling Google is with Chrome. I also switched to Duckduckgo. I've never actually felt less tracked in a long time as a result. Actually eye opening. I used Incognito so often for Google searches to not be tracked. Now I can search freely without then seeing ads or content related to that search elsewhere.

I read on the Jellyfin site that the Pi5 has no hardware encoders...

Since I'm only streaming locally (on a Pi4) I don't need to record anything but still.

Why not move though when the grenade dropped on his head?

Duolingo is one hell of a spammy application. I uninstalled it just because it was so noisy.
