mbirth@lemmy.mlto United Kingdom@feddit.uk•Google Wallet lets UK users turn their passport into digital IDsEnglish4·4 days agothese digital IDs are not a replacement for the original physical ones
So, it’s basically the same as taking a photo of your passport and keeping that on your phone.
mbirth@lemmy.mlto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Vaultwarden selfhosting, or bitwarden service?English1·4 days agoI’m using Strongbox on iOS and macOS with iCloud Sync and never had any merge issue. Well, maybe once when I deliberately edited the same entry on two different devices. But during normal use, the sync and merge works great.
mbirth@lemmy.mlto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Vaultwarden selfhosting, or bitwarden service?English15·4 days agoThe Bitwarden clients cache your data locally. So even if your Vaultwarden goes down, you’ll still be able to access your passwords. Just not sync new ones or make changes.
mbirth@lemmy.mlto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Vaultwarden selfhosting, or bitwarden service?English62·4 days agoI’d throw in option 3: use a KeePass2 database, sync it using whatever sync tool you like (SyncThing, iCloud, NextCloud, WebDAV, …) and use compatible apps (KeepassXC, Strongbox, etc.)
Might need some
if (ob_get_level()) ob_end_clean();
before the
readfile
. 😉
And if you want some customisation, e.g. some repeating string over and over, you can use something like this:
yes "b0M" | tr -d '\n' | head -c 10G | gzip -c > 10GB.gz
yes
repeats the given string (followed by a line feed) indefinitely - originally meant to type “yes” + ENTER into prompts.tr
then removes the line breaks again andhead
makes sure to only take 10GB and not have it run indefinitely.If you want to be really fancy, you can even add some HTML header and footer to some files like
header
andfooter
and then run it like this:yes "b0M" | tr -d '\n' | head -c 10G | cat header - footer | gzip -c > 10GB.gz
I was going by this thread and this comment. Those other websites are mostly selling SIMs for industrial IoT or CCTV stuff and are either acting as a MVNO (where I don’t know how much influence they have on the network configuration) or probably selling foreign cards with free roaming or something like that.
Fixed IP might be a problem as basically all carriers use CGNAT. From what I could
gathergoogle, Three seems to be the only one where you can manually change the APN to3internet
to get assigned a proper IP address.

mbirth@lemmy.mlto Steam Deck@sopuli.xyz•What are (in your opnion) the must tweaks for steamos?1·5 days agoIf you’ve got a slow-ish SD card and a game that compresses very well, then this might be the case. But with a modern card from e.g. SanDisk or Samsung with U3 and A2 certifications, this probably won’t do that much.
Get an OBD2 adapter. If you’re on Android, a cheap ELM327-clone with Bluetooth will do. If you’re on iOS, you’ll need one with WiFi. There are apps (Android: Torque Pro, iOS: OBD Fusion) to read out any error codes and they can also give you the values from all the different sensors. Helps a lot with troubleshooting.
mbirth@lemmy.mlto Steam Deck@sopuli.xyz•What are (in your opnion) the must tweaks for steamos?3·6 days agoAnd BTRFS with compression and deduplication are great to save space.
I’m not sure I’d go as far as replacing the file system. There’s a plethora of tools to do deduplication on ext4 as well. Albeit manually (or via cronjob).
Also, btrfs seems to be slower for random reads than ext4. At least that was the case back in 2019.
mbirth@lemmy.mlto United Kingdom@feddit.uk•Does anyone know what happened to Babylon/GPAtHand/eMed?English4·9 days agoYou should now use the NHS App for viewing your medical records, viewing test results and documents, and requesting repeat prescriptions. Appointments can be booked using our website. We are no longer using the eMed app.
This gives basically no headaches at all. I am running this schema on all my Linux devices. And swap is done using a swapfile instead of a partition. This way, you can easily increase it later on.
mbirth@lemmy.mlto Fediverse@lemmy.world•Thoughts on lightweight platforms like gotosocial?English2·12 days agoOhh, SQLite isn’t “one” db. SQLite is file-based. I.e. a database in e.g. PostgreSQL (containing several tables, views, indexes, etc.) would translate to one SQLite file (e.g.
mydatabase.db3
ormyappdata.sqlite
). And each app has its own file/database. If the file corrupts, then it’s only affecting that specific app. (However, SQLite is pretty robust.) And since these are just files, you can backup them together with the application. No need to export data or shutdown the database first.
mbirth@lemmy.mlto Technology@lemmy.world•Attacking My Landlord's Boiler - videah's blogEnglish61·12 days agoThere are smart valves. You can just unscrew/unclip the existing dumb ones and replace them with smart ones. They usually even report the temperature (well, near the radiator - so you might want to get extra temp sensors for the other end of the room).
Whatever you do, don’t do the Tim Horton.
