Send like most of the valid criticism is based around the fact that the company also is in the business of user data mining. Which is enough for me to never use them.

Though they also very aggressively advertise, which is also a big red flag.

Sharing co-owners with Tesonet and receiving funding from the same company that owns a data-mining service isn’t ideal. But there is no evidence, and never has been, that anything is being shared between NordVPN and Oxylabs. Besides, NordVPN states that it follows a strict no-logs policy, which means it doesn’t record, store, or share user activity. And this is backed up by the usage of RAM-only servers and multiple independent audits—most recently the service passed a third-party no-logs audit in late 2025 by security firm Deloitte.

Batteries also need to be balanced. If you constantly keep your battery packs in that small range they’ll drift out of balance over time.

You should charge to 100% occasionally to allow the BMS to balance all the packs.

Yes

I love how these models apologize like they mean it. It doesn’t mean it. It doesn’t feel bad, and it will do it again.

Apologies mean “I made a mistake and I learned from it so it won’t repeat.”

Sure it claims it added more notes to it’s config, but if it ignored the rules before, what makes you think that new rules are going to change anything?

NPM, Nginx Proxy Manager also has a UI and certificate management.

Bullets yes, but primers are very dangerous to make. Gunpowder/smokeless powder is also somewhat dangerous.

FYI, you can still dedrm Amazon books. Even ones you buy today.

Edit: Not going to lie, it’s a lot more complicated now. But it actually works for Amazon borrowed books too (i.e. - Libby library books)

You have to use KindleForPC 2.8.0. You download the books you want, then run an app called KFXKeyExtract28 to pull out all the keys.

You have to have DeDRM installed in calibre and point the plugin to the keyfile that gets generated (you only have to do this once)

Then you can import the books into calibre and everything will work as normal.

Don’t get discouraged, it works, you just have to figure out the right workflow that you’re comfortable with.

Also, I have no idea why they don’t just update the ReadMe, as it seems like this discussion thread is the only actual place this is documented.

That’s weird, cause I see *******11111111111111

Until you’re halfway through putting in new brake pads and realize you need a specialty bit and now you’re stuck without a working car until you get that Amazon package.

So when I’m working on my car, and find I need to find a specialty bit to undo a single screw, and they don’t sell it anywhere in town and I have to wait 2-3 days for shipping (or 2-3 weeks if I order from overseas) then it’s fine cause I shouldn’t be working on my car myself?

Is this a BMW bot?

What happened to the right to own and maintain my own property?

It’s not their right to decide if I get to work on my own property.

If you leave it all the way open, the car just needs to drive a couple feet with decent acceleration to close it.

If you ALMOST close it, but not all the way, that would require some sort of intervention.

Many companies already have transitioned to mathematically proven quantum resistant encryption.

Sure, some old stuff will be vulnerable, but we’ve known the risk for a while and have already started preparation.

FreshRSS has an API that can be called by different apps in the app store.

I use FreshRSS web interface on my computer, and then use the Readrops app on my phone.

800w is less than half what you could pull from any outlet in the US. Standard electric breakers are rated for 15amp continuous at 120v. Most heating appliances designed to run for long periods of time (like electric heaters, or countertop cooking) run around 1800watts. So you could pretty easily plug in two 800w solar panels to back-feed a single circuit.

50amp 220v is about the limit on one circuit for most residential homes (for ovens, or electric central heating) which is what would be used for the fastest electric car charging at home.

That’s plenty of headroom for in-circuit solar generation.

You could when solar fist started becoming available. Energy companies quickly realized that if everyone did that, they’d have way too much power during the day, and none at night.

Our local co-op power generator barely makes it useful to have solar unless you also have battery storage.

If you only care about technology that’s commercially available, why are you on the technology community?

No exaggeration, this was my breaking point for switching to linux exclusively.

Since you have to opt into tracking to read the article (which I think is illegal) here’s the source.

He mentions flicker several times in the video.
