Amazon refurbished used and refurbished devices.
And then from there, I’d recommend one of the older office PC’s like the HP elitedesk line, as they are sold in large amounts by institutions like colleges when they are done with them. You should replace the SSD on them, as the SSD is commonly replaced with a really crappy one that is likely to die on yout.

This also reminds me of 100 rabbits, a gamedev studio who lives from a boat.
Sherpa onnx which got posted on lemmy a little while back is pretty good on android (all local).
For example, Open Watcom is nonfree because its license does not allow making a modified version and using it privately. Fortunately, few programs use such licenses.
Although the FSF doesn’t like licenses that force release of code of private versions, it should be noted that Open Watcom also has a termination clause. You can no longer use that software if you are being sued by watcom or something like that.
This termination clause is why entities who otherwise would be okay with this license, like Debian, don’t find it acceptable.
This is so horrifically wrong, I don’t even know where to start.
The short version is that phone and computer makers aren’t stupid and they will kill things or shutdown when overheating happens. If you were a phone maker, why tf would you allow someone to fry their own phone?
My laptop has shut itself off when I was trying to compile code while playing video games, while watching twitch. My android phone has killed apps when I try to do too much as well.
Yeah you probably want a proxy based solution. Have a network that has no internet access except through a proxy that you control.
You would also have to lock dns down. The problem with dns based blocks is that things like dns over https allow people to use an alternative dns server. But, if you control the devices that you are managing, then you can also control what dns server they use.
Noscript. Ublock origin strict/export mode, where you must manually accept connections. Dns filtering. A socks proxy. VPN. Etc, there exist many ways.
But which of these methods is best depends on what you are trying to do.
It is, they are switching from X to wayland.social, a mastodon instance.
(/s, they aren’t actually doing this though.)
This includes sideloaded apps.
This exactly. I have a FOSS app called VirtualXPosed installed (although I never use it anymore), which creates a “virtual android” in which apps can be installed and be manipulated in ways that would normally require root, despite me not having it on my phone.
Despite having “play protect” disabled, google still constantly sends me notifications about it being harmful.
Excellent choice on the new SSD.
If you are buying one of the used Elitedesks, refurbished from a business done with them, they often have their original storage removed and replaced with an extremely cheap, crappy SSD that probably won’t last long and will instead just die on you.
Yes. It’s a frontend for twitter, based on nitter.
It’s similar to invidious for youtube.
There are exactly 3 types of phoronix commenters:
I already replied to your last post, but my reply here is the same. You want kubernetes and gitops. There exists many ways to do staging/preprod/prod setups with gitops.
I don’t know cuz I’ve never played it. But given that it’s developed by people who want it to be fun (all open source), I can assume it’s gonna actually be fun.
There are many, I think. Like what other people have mentioned, sometimes the new standard is just better on all metrics.
Another common example is when someone creates something as a passion project, rather than expecting it to get used widely. It’s especially frustrating for me when I see people denigrate projects like those, criticizing it for a lack of practicality…
Not quite what you want but still cool: https://archipelago.gg/
I’m gonna be real: You want kubernetes + gitops (either fluxcd or argocd or the rancher one).
I mean sure, jenkins works, but nothing is going to be as smooth as kubernetes. I originally attempted to use ansible as many people suggested, but I got frustrated becuase it struggled to manage state in a truly declarative way (e.g. when I would change the ports in the ansible files the podman containers wouldn’t update, I had to add tasks for destroying and recreating the containers).
I eventually just switched to kubernetes + fluxcd. I push to the git repo. The state of the kubernetes cluster changes according. Beautiful. Simple. Encrypted secrets via sops. It supports the helm package manager as well. Complex af to set up though. But it’s a huge time saver in the long run, which is why so many companies use it.
https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/ or vscodium
And: https://open-vsx.org/
This is what I use. Arch Linux packages code oss, hooked up to open vsx by default.
Also some of Microsoft’s extensions, like their docker and kubernetes one’s, are open source (and available in the open vsx), but their C# stuff is proprietary.
