This is a known issue on some default roms, more info and tips here, but I guess you already tried them: https://dontkillmyapp.com/

It’s chromium based.

Another free option I like is dynu.com

They have an example ddclient config in their FAQ: https://www.dynu.com/FAQ/Dynamic-DNS-Service#IPUpdate

Tldr: it’s an android eink tablet, and they are just runing vnc on android.

I thought it will be some hardware magic…

They have a separate repo: https://github.com/bitwarden/f-droid

2 guys already took it over, 2 days ago: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/libxml2/-/commit/214fb814223614d13d44f1465302c3cbd7d1395a

It’ not the first time Linux Foundation adds its name a to a project by Big Tech. Overture Maps Foundation launched in 2022,it’s under the same umbrella and it has similar sponsors:

Why Zucc was left out from this new party?

I’ve seen slightly offtopic posts deleted here, even after some interesting conversation in the comments. I think Lemmy is small, and it could help the platform if conversations and posts are preserved even if they are not 100% on topic. But I respect the work of mods, it’s their decision how they run a community, even if I don’t agree with them all time.

But just as a backup, if things take an unexpected turn, here are some similar, but much less active communities:

• !selfhosted@sh.itjust.works
• !selfhosting@slrpnk.net
• !homelab@selfhosted.forum
• !selfhosting@eviltoast.org
• !SelfHosted@europe.pub

This is also to the “low effort” posters, if you disagree with your post’s removal you can post it to other similar communities.

The Epic v Google case was settled recently, in November, I guess they were waiting for that.

Yes the headline is clickbait and misleading, this data is not usable for anything to us mortals, it’s for researchers who need very low quality data but for global calculations.

We utilized building footprint datasets from various sources (see Table 2), including OSM (OpenStreetMap contributors, 2025), Google Open buildings (Google Research, 2023), Microsoft Building Footprints (Microsoft, 2024), and CLSM (Shi et al., 2024). Since none of the above-mentioned footprints is complete, we also generated our own global building polygons from an updated version of GlobalBuildingMap (Zhu et al., 2024),

As I’m a frequent OSM contributor, I’m familiar with those other datasets, and they are shit. Just zoom in any river or lake near a city and you will find houses in the water, clearly grid based building are nicely dancing around, etc. The demoed areas are from OSM, and mostly drawn manually, you can see them on a lot other sources without the low quality AI gen contours, e.g.:

• https://demo.f4map.com/
• https://streets.gl/
• https://osmbuildings.org/

Edit: I read it through, and the actual research is they acquired building height data, and added it to the already existing datasets:

All the aforementioned datasets are mostly 2d. OSM has some building height data.

And their point is not to have a detailed and end user friendly dataset, just a global one,

Why here, there are relevant communities like !yepowertrippinbastards@lemmy.dbzer0.com or !reddit@lemmy.world

Also QuickShare is not an Android feature, it’s Google Play Services (GMS) feature, it doesn’t work on degoogled android phones.

Here is the issue about implementing it in microG: https://github.com/microg/GmsCore/issues/1272

The image didn’t load for me, but xcancel is still working:

Wait. The point of the unbelievable amount of telemetry you can’t even disable was to collect info in situations like this. Right? Why is there telemetry if they have to ask?

Edit: title of the article is a bit misleading, as I obviously commented before reading the article.

The “another” company they are in contacting is Phison, the manufacturer of thr affected controllers, so it doesn’t sound as bad as from the title

Very nice project! Thank you for using OpenStreetMap! I love it when the project I contribute to gets used in interesting projects like this!

But some quick notes, related to the map display: It’s called OpenStreetMap, there is no s at the end, written in CamelCase without spaces. The other more important problem is you forgot to include the attribution text on the map. For using OSM there is only one requirement, you have to display “© OpenStreetMap” somewhere on a corner of the map. More info about this on the website of the OSM foundation: https://osmfoundation.org/wiki/Licence/Attribution_Guidelines

I see the attribution text is displayed on http://trails.tchncs.de/ but not on https://demo.wanderer.to/ so I don’t know what’s going on.

The basemap display on the demo website uses the tile server from openstreeetmap.org. This is very discouraged, and also can give bad experience to users. The tiles on osm.org are raster tiles, they are regenerated automatically after a change in the map data, they are aimed as a tool for map contributors, not end users. You can read more about this here: https://operations.osmfoundation.org/policies/tiles/

There is a new totally free maplibre compatible vector tile provider, which uses the same map data, I recommend to switch to OpenFreeMap. Users can also self host OpenFreeMap, so some really privacy minded users could totally self host the full project this way.
