… Just make a git repo.

Then you can sync, too.

@traceapps@lemmy.world Please also include the required disclosures per rule 8, and let me know if you have any questions

What I’m hoping to go with is more something like a clamshell (think MNT Pocket Reform) or slider (like the old motorola droid). The Mecha Comet seems interesting but I’m not sure yet. I also like what WaveShare has going with the PocketTerm, but I want something other than a pi in there (I swore off RPi when they continued business sales and let prices skyrocket for the regular users who made them who they are).

I may also end up trying to put something together with spare parts I have, but we’ll see if I have the time for that.

The nonsense steps to even get there. The absolute nonsensical mess of lies in their claims to even do this in the first place. Lets be clear - if they wanted to block malware, they would need to be doing so from the Play store in the first place. So, lets highlight a few simple things:

• It was only about 6 months ago that it was documented by a cybersec company that hundreds of malicious apps were downloaded quite literally tens of millions of times.
• The number of malicious apps on the Play store have gone up, not down.
• Banking malware has more than doubled in the past few years
• The majority of growth (more than doubling) in the YoY were spyware apps - used for identity theft, extortion, and surveillance, and all on the Play store.
• There are even ones specifically targeting Android TV boxes, again mostly operating unchecked on the Play store.

To even suggest installing apps (which, lets be honest, that is what they are calling “sideloading” - doing the thing you do on your PC all the time) from a different location is the issue is far from reality. So any “promise” from them is worth functionally nothing to me.

As I said, I’m leaving Android either way. I shouldn’t have to go through such a massive number of hoops to install on my own device.

Unfortunately I was replying from my phone and didn’t notice. And yes, definitely trying to be patient given its a new rule and not exactly the easiest.

The up side is these are the sort of things that come up that make it easier to identify the holes - particularly the lack of examples. I’ll clear that up later today after I’m done with work.

The part that isn’t right (and sorry, was replying from my phone earlier so I didn’t notice) is the level of AI involvement.

So lets say the only AI assisted part was documentation, and it was fully generated - you’d put:

• Documentation: Generated

If you also had it suggest testing, but you implemented the tests themselves, that would be Hint, so it would look like this:

• Testing: Hint
• Documentation: Generated

I think I should put a few examples in the post to make it clearer

My go-to recommendation would be rustdesk.

Eh, I wouldn’t say useless.

I’d say they only account for user sentiment at best. Which can have an impact, but I’d say incredibly unlikely that there will be an impact on this one.

Not using android as much as possible will have a much higher impact though.

No worries, its a new rule following a slew of posts from brand new users promo’ing fully generated projects (and a pretty hefty community response as a result)

Thanks!

Thanks!

Thanks, just one more bit which would be the level of AI assistance:

• Hint - AI suggested solution, human does the task.
• Assisted - AI acts on part of a task, but a human handled the bulk.
• Pair - About a 50/50 split of human made and generated.
• Generated - Human prompted, AI generated.

Just for each part of it, I’ll update in my comment above

Appreciated, thanks!

Since it is AI assisted, can you add the disclosure portion (Rule 8)? A reply to the top level distinguished comment works, the disclosure info is here.

I know, a lot of steps involved now, but the community is a pretty wide split on AI use.

@duckling5746@lemmy.today as a reminder the reason this is related to self-hosting should be obvious, whether in the title or the post text.

For this one, I’ll note that this is key to self-hosting, and I think many know it. Many, myself included, use f-droid or similar 3rd party repos to manage the apps that we use with our self-hosted setup. With this change, many of the current apps we enjoy using will either need to register with Google, or essentially become unused. While there is a way to still do it, it is really messy, and requires an absolutely wild number of steps + 24hr “cooling off period”. Its ridiculous.

Personally, I’m leaving the android ecosystem one way or the other. It may be using an android phone and hotspotting for another device running PMOS or similar, or getting a Moto with Graphene, whatever, but this change is impactful and horrendous.

Just to note - or a standalone NAS.

Personally I have two NAS and one older PC ive turned into a NAS, both options work just fine, becomes a question on price/availability and a motherboard that supports the drive quantity you have/want to expand to.

I actually started something yesterday on codeberg. Right now its just a glossary of terms, I haven’t had the time to do more than that.

Well crap! Its only in the detailed rules…

I’ll take care of that shortly

Edit: There we go, in there now, though I can probably clean that up a bit better to be more clear. I’ll address that later though, time to start the work day…

Hell no.

Copy, paste. Done.

I have a password database that is secure and offline.

Why the hell would I want my browser to store my passwords/session data?
