So I’m interested in buying a Pixel 8 to install GrapheneOS in it but I’m also interested in rooting it and from what I’ve read rooting your device with a privacy focused custom ROM like GrapheneOS beats the purpose of installing it, so I don’t know if it’s actually posible to do it or if it actually has any grace,...
You technically could make cheese without murdering a cow but you won’t find any made that way. Cows only produce milk for their young. To make milk they need to be repeatedly impregnated over and over again. Lifespan of a cow can be 20 years, though they are usually killed after about 5 as their milk output drops. Half of the cows they give birth to will be male and almost all killed as they don’t produce milk. Some of the females may be killed too as you’ll end up with more cows than you have room for it you keep them all.
As for a human child, drinking human breast milk is considered vegan as long as it was given consensually. If you kidnap someone and tie them up in your basement then it wouldn’t be.
FYI for anyone interested. Immich is a open source, self hosted system for photos/videos like Google Photos. It uses machine learning locally for facial and general image recognition.
It certainly can be a bit involved. When I moved from Gmail address to my own personal domain I did it slowly over a few months.
I set my Gmail address to automatically forward to my new email address. Then I setup a quick filter which added a label on everything that had been forwarded. Once a week or so I would look at all the emails that had been forwarded and update them to my new email (or delete them if unwanted).
I’ve used it quite a bit recently. It makes it really easy to submit data in small amounts. I usually have it open while walking my dog and enter in basic things as I go. I’ve completed about 1500 quests so far with it.
You might get something harder after that. But there’s a reason one of the most common code interview questions is FizzBuzz. There’s a shocking number of applicants that can’t do it.
The Vegan Society does do certifications for products which will let you use their logo. I’m not aware of any laws which would stop you from calling a product vegan without that certification, just can’t use their logo for it.
I can’t remember if it was the EU or ISO which was working on a standard to classify a product as vegan in the past couple of years. Though the last news I heard about it was that it was being led by agricultural lobby rather than animal rights activists.
I’ve got no idea how much the Vegan Society (or other orgs) charges for certification. As you said, plenty of other labels/logos they can use.
I do occasionally see reports of companies labeling a product as vegan when it isn’t. Usually from someone not understanding what vegan means (like honey). But those are pretty rare in the grand scheme of things.
Unfortunately I’m not sure how good a case someone would have for misleading claims without any legal definition on what “Vegan” means.
I’d prefer to get a VPN to avoid the risk of my internet getting shut down, but I’m not aware of what the options for Linux are. I figured this would be a good place to ask.
I’m not sure if their app does it. But the gluten docker container supports their port forwarding. Works really well if you’re looking to route other containers through a VPN.
Yeah, it’s possible to get it to work with password managers. I believe it has to do with ensuring the password field still exists on the page when the username is shown.
This is what I’ve done too. I’ve tried a bunch of other keyboards from F-Droid, but haven’t been 100% happy with any of them. So I’m using GBoard still with all network permissions disabled.
This is something I’ve been trying to do reliably for years. I can stream anything I want easily with VLC or even just Chrome itself but I can’t get subs to work. I was able to make it work for a long time using a Chrome app called “videostream” but it now no longer works correctly on my system. It’s a bit confusing to...
You should be able to do this. I don’t know if the first gen Chromecast supports native subtitles. But even if it doesn’t, Plex has the option to burn the subtitles right into the video. It places some extra load on the server as it needs to transcode the video, but it pretty much guarantees compatibility.
Yes, the transcoding is done on the fly automatically. Plex automatically transcodes any media that the client doesn’t natively support. Turning on burned in subtitles forces it to transcode to add them in.

I don’t think WebAuthn protects against cookie theft. WebAuthn better protects the login process. But if the result of the login process is still a session/auth cookie, that can be stolen like any other cookie.
I do the two profiles on mine as well. The Google profile isn’t allowed to run in the background so it’s only active when I’m using an app that really needs it. Down to just a single app now that needs it.

Signal does have a fallback if FCM is unavailable. It supposedly uses slightly more battery, but I can’t say I noticed it. I’ve swapped to using Molly which is a fork of Signal which implements UnifiedPush (among some other features).
It’s mostly a power efficiency thing. Before push notifications were the norm, most apps used a polling method. They had the application send a request every X seconds asking “anything new”. There wasn’t coordination between apps, so even every app checked once every 30s, it likely wouldn’t be on the same 30s. This caused the device to wake up a lot and never let it switch into low power mode.
A push notifications system like FCM or UnifiedPush means only a single application needs to run in the background. It maintains a persistent connection to the push notification service and waits for a message. When it receives one it wakes up the relevant app and passes it the details.
