    OK, I didn’t read the full text but I saw self-hostable alternative to Google Timeline and Hona Assistant and I’m sold!

    Google timeline once genuenly helped me get my Swedish citizenship, but it also freaked me out how much data Google had about me.

    I had to write down when I left the country and when I came back for the last 5 years or so, and without timeline it would not been possible because during that time I traveled abroad at least twice a Mont for a year.

    Anyway it sounds very cool especially because I’m already having Home assistant set up for this but it doesn’t have this timeline functionality.










  • So how do you deal with the fact that So many services on the phone tell you to turn off VPN to use them? I’m turning the VPN off and on several times a day on my phone and am always annoyed about it, because I need it on so I can get notifications and calls from my parents home network.

    But every time I need to pay with Samsung Pay I have to turn it off, every time I want to log in to a government website I have to use this 2FA PASS app here in Korea and I have to turn the VPN off.

    So often I forget to turn it on again, it’s so annoying, that this alone makes me want to put my stuff directly on the internet without a VPN and just keep stuff updated.
