  Nice it seems that DejaVuln will work! Thanks :)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is it possible to install my own OS on a "smart" TV? Is that a thing?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s similar to console hacking. If there is no known exploit, the device is not yours. LG patched the exploit that made that possible for my smart TV and know I need to wait for another to be doscovered. Unfortunately the Smart TV hacking community is not that active.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Many such cases⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Obviously you can do a SEPA transfer as well, but it’s not instant and you have to type a long number and don’t have a consistently good user experience. Bank apps lack good UX. Stuff like “send this friend 5 bucks again, this is his profile picture” and are a pain to log into.

  I don’t say I like paypal or banks, i actually dont like either. But paypal is just more convenient.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Many such cases⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  How do you send money to friends or businesses with credit card? Is there a paypal card which has its password printed on it?

  This was a marketing post, not a technical one. Unless we see any git branches or ROM teardown we won’t know what they were doing. I highly doubt that they did any kernel patches though.

  Piracy is never stealing, since you are not removing anything from anyone. This does not include actual piracy, the one with ships and rum.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If civilization continues to the year 9999, is the idea to go to year 10.000, or...?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  It would make more sense to switch to a calendar with a different year 0. Like when human civilization started, which would make.the current year to 12k+. Or when earth started, which revolutions around the sun we are counting. Which would make the current year something with 4.5 billion.

  For the record, I also found that turtl is FOSS and seems to have a decent UI. I will give it a try.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Self hosted Google Keep alternative⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I guess it does a job, but will lack some features like tagging I am accustomed to from keep. Also I would need to maintain a whole nextcloud instance for it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Self hosted Google Keep alternative⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Oh, I didn’t realize it was open source from the look of the website. But it actually is! And it’s active. github.com/standardnotes/app

  I will check it out.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Self hosted Google Keep alternative⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Hmm, latest commit 7 years ago… It was also not easy to find the “upstream” repo, the link on the website 404s. github.com/cognirel/Quillpad-Server

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Self hosted Google Keep alternative⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Right, obsidian didn’t appeal to me since it’s proprietary.

  I probably will look into setting up a Joplin server and maybe write a frontend for it. Also didn’t try frontend options on PC yet.

  Until now I only tried the Android app and while it looked quite mature, I didn’t get quite the UX from it I was anticipating.

  Some things that bothered me:

  • Creating a note requires 2 clicks, 1 should be fine.I want to start writing and decide whether its a todo later.

  • Tag management. In Keep #tags are parsed from text automatically. Although there is a conflict with markdown syntax, having to issue 3 clicks to add a tag seems bothersome

  • Tags are not shown in the main menu, but are another view.

  • Didn’t figure out what notebooks are supposed to be, but i guess some kind of directory system. Don’t see the point when having a tag system. In the end they are too prominent in the UI.

  But the synchronization options and markdown capabilities are a big plus. mardown is actually a feature missing in keep.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Self hosted Google Keep alternative⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I actually stumbled upon it, but even though they have an active github account and there is an Arch Linux package, the software is proprietary. So I would rather patch the FOSS alternatives to my desire.
