I use a GL300 tracker paired with a Hologram SIM. Its a bit involved to set up as you need to run a traccar server somewhere and program the tracker for it, but hologram is like $1 a month and the trackers battery life is several months on a charge.

I have my webmail and homeassistant pinned, otherwise it’s whatever I’m actively looking at.

By the time they calculate the result on their retail price and update the website the orange will probably change everything again.

Is that worth it when a normal FDIC covered savings account returns 3-5%?

You’re thinking of whatsapp

Mailbox.org is another good option, pretty cheap to use with your own domain which I highly recommend. With your own domain you can move email providers almost instantly later on without needing to update emails on all your accounts.

Nothing, secure boot should work fine, no reason to disable TPM.

This has nothing to do with gmail or the emails you send/receive.

The process is googles search bot will subscribe google to marketing newsletters available on websites, it’s outlined in the linked post: “Google will either subscribe to your emails automatically or you can add marketingemailtogoog@gmail.com to your email lists and that will do it.”

I think people are confused, this has nothing to do with gmail as far as I can tell.

Google is going to websites and subscribing itself to their newsletters. This is not related to consumers.

It’s still good to move away from gmail and google in general, just pointing out that it’s not scanning your gmail inbox or something like that.

Just use decent quality USB C to C cables and power adapters. Don’t use splitters or weird adapters that go against the USB C spec.

Nahh just stop working, not worth the huge cost of having an extra.

Fair, I guess the chances of needing simultaneous 10Gb download and upload on the internet connection are pretty slim.

My ISP does offer 6 Gbps, but 1 Gbps is far more than I need already. I would drop down to like a 500 Mbps plan if they had one but it jumps all the way to 100 Mbps.

Ah that makes sense, so not very useful if you have over 5Gb internet service I suppose.

Interesting that it will only have 1 10GbE port, I’m not really sure how you’re supposed to use 10Gb internet service if you can’t get 10Gb out of the router into your LAN.

They often only have 1 ethernet port that’s 1GbE or 2.5GbE at that price, and a wifi client card doesn’t make a very good AP.

Only 1 ethernet port.

Only some have an internal switch, others just have multiple NICs.

Even if it was covered in high school, I think because most people never use it again in daily life it’s easy to forget.

Generally I don’t think Chinese tech is really any worse than “US” (aka; made in china by a US company) tech.

The software running on phones and stuff is likely worse though, some things should be avoided.

is it really so that your Joe Average can’t tell the difference between 1kWh of heat produced by gas compared to electricity?

Most people don’t even know what a watt or watt/hour is. And have no idea how energy from gas relates to energy from electricity.
