Im not sure that this is what you’re looking for but, I use a Ugoos AM9 pro. It’s not a stick, but its a pretty capable android TV box. It uses a remote. it comes with magisk installed. I spent some time auditing it via adb and confirming it wasn’t sending telemetry, and I couldn’t find anything concerning.
I wish there was an alternate image I could put in it like lineage os, just for the extra confirmation, but I’m already very happy with it.
I feel like the real lesson is not to use Microsoft products at all
I like both overlapping windows and a sort of tiling
I use kwin-rectangle extension to bring the hotkeys used by Rectangle on MacOS onto my Linux machines
That way I can stack things, or I can use hotkeys to send the active window to a static tiled position/size. I’m a particular fan of thirds on my ultrawide
In a perfect world, operating totally on my local network I’d love if my fridge and freezer took pictures of things as I was putting them in and taking them out to automatically maintain an inventory. If it didnt require external servers, it really could be great. Hell, even if it gave me the option of local execution it could be great.
But this is the real world and we can’t gave nice things. This should never have been a failure mode at all. If the computer in these things decides to stop working, it takes fairly few things make it run like a dumb fridge. They just decided that was unacceptable, so here we are.
I have similar feelings about washers and dryers. I’d love to hook it up to my mqtt broker and get local notifications when it finishes. But there is zero reason whatsoever for it to reach the internet.
I wear a wide brimmed straw or wool hat when I’m outside. Skin cancer runs in my family. I don’t really care what other people think about it.
Not me. I’m the Kaiju.
I’m sure there’s no chance, but I sure hope this eventually opens up to US usage for the few of us Americans that give a damn about privacy
Playing as Mobius One felt incredible when enemy comma started referring to you as the Grim Reaper and whatnot.
What a game.
And my friends wonder why I recommend against Manjaro…
I’m in my mid 30s and Fox News was saying that colleges make liberals when I was in middle school.
Probably even before that, I was just too young to notice
I believe in you.
I stopped drinking and it has been very worth the effort. It’s hard, but I believe in you
Couldn’t agree more.
Chicken is my favorite protein. It can be used in so many different ways. I can buy a whole bird, break it down in a couple minutes, and use the carcass for stock to make soup, gravy, sauces, etc.
Can you get bargain bin chicken that tastes like nothing? Absolutely. But that’s not the chicken’s fault, it’s how we raise, process and package them.
I agree. Neilmed’s products are great
I just inhale normally when I spray. I can often feel some of it reaching my sinus. Also, my experience with Flonase has been that it needs to be used regularly for a short period to reach peak effectiveness
I hope it gives you the relief that you seek, OP
I always start with nasal irrigation. For most of the year, nasal irrigation has eliminated my medication usage for allergies.
When it’s not enough, I use flonase, but I think my sinuses mainly get irritated with prolonged exposure. Rinsing the pollen out has helped dramatically

It definitely isn’t as graceful in the every day experience, but keeping a profile with resist fingerprinting disabled has helped the few times I need to get past turnstiles and whatnot that otherwise loop
It really is a shame that it’s come to this rock paper scissors war between the server’s usage, the user’s experience, and privacy. Currently privacy is what has been cut in favor of the other two. You have to work to maintain privacy now

That sounds exactly like my nine Sols experience, and I’m excited to experience it again through Sekiro
It’s definitely a valid concern. I connected a device between it and the rest of my network and spent some time recording anything it sent. I wasn’t able to find any telemetry at all. I also keep it segregated from the rest of my network by vlan, and it only has a few specific routes to reach my self hosted services.
I do, however, want to point out that a chromecast is going to have a ton of telemetry. It’s hard to be truly certain of any devices these days, but I spent some time digging into the OS and I’m pretty confident that it’s truly my device.
I don’t use google cast, but I’m fairly sure it could if I used it. It has a remote, so I just use that. If I want to use jellyfin, or whatever app, I just install it on the device and log straight in. I don’t use mine as a portable stick like you mentioned. It’s intended to turn a dumb tv into a smart tv, and that’s all I want it to do.
