Are you able to control phone functions with assist? I don’t use it mainly because I set voice timers a lot and wasn’t able to find a way to do it with assist.
Dear everyone,
It’s not sports, so fuck it!

I think you might be confusing intelligence with memory. Memory is compressed knowledge, intelligence is the ability to decompress and interpret that knowledge.
Was it called Idiocracy? Brawndo! The thirst mutilator!
Conservatives be like: “God is angry, take away the abortions!”
Or, just don’t have those IDs by not having accounts. Nobody’s identifying me by my Facebook ID if I don’t have one. Simples
My first car cost $900 in the 90’s. It was a '91 bronco 2 that had the driver’s-side door replaced and spray painted the approximate colors of the rest of the car. Bought it from some dude selling it along the road. My theory is that gen z’ers are just too picky to live like we did “back in the day” so they say they can’t afford things like cars when the real problem is that they can’t afford the cars they WANT

I only have one dns field. Apparently, there’s a fork of asus software that provides 2 so my suspicion is that the router is automatically supplying its own IP as dns2
I have my router as DHCP and I also have the DNS set to the pi-hole which I’m assuming is how the devices are getting it. I’m just not sure why it’s getting my router IP as well.
The router is running DHCP and is set to hand out the Pi-hole IP as DNS. Interestingly, there’s only one field for this so maybe the router is choosing itself as DNS2? If I go into WAN settings, there are fields for DNS1 & 2 but if I was under the impression that these should be set for upstream DNS.
Why would I use anything that runs my homelab traffic through centralized servers? It kinda defeats my whole purpose in “privatizing” my data. They say they don’t collect data blah blah blah but nobody can be 100% sure what goes on in their own servers.
I really like the idea of combining VPN with Syncthing-like connectivity but not at the cost of privacy. If they would just allow an opt-out from using their servers and not requiring signing up for an account I would be all over it.
Unless I’m mistaken, I’ll be sticking with my Wireguard with one port forwarded through my router.
I’m thinking that, when I decide to upgrade from my homelab-ish setup, I’ll be going with one of these. I haven’t looked into the software so much but just something a bit more purpose-built than a pi4 with a USB drive 😋
I’m using wireguard but I hear a lot of good things about tailscale.
Depends on your router. I have an Asus and it has a free ddns option through their domain. I point my Wireguard client at this address and never think of it again. That way, the only port that’s open on your router is a Wireguard port and they don’t respond to sniffing.
If that’s not a possibility, I had a ddns service before that for like $2/month
Well, I’ve had a fully functioning Traccar instance running all night and most of the day and I’m sad to say that I’m less than impressed.
The tracking isn’t quite as bad as OwnTracks but not nearly as good as PhoneTrack. Instead of showing me that I randomly went to a city several miles away, I just spent some time in a field by my house instead of walking down the road next to it.
I’ve kept PhoneTrack running in tandem and the comparison, in terms of accuracy and battery usage, leaves no question. I tried everything I could think of to post a screenshot of my battery usage but “image is too large” was all I got even for an 18k image. So, after a day-ish of running both, my battery stats in Android show:
I think it’s PhoneTrack’s “significant motion” setting that makes the difference here. If Traccar gets this feature (or already has it and I’m missing it…) that will solve a few problems.
If I’m missing something with Traccar here, somebody please set me to rights. It seems strange that the only setting in the Traccar client to save battery is to set the interval longer, thereby killing accuracy. PhoneTrack seems to have solved this problem, and it’s “just a Nextcloud app”, Traccar is dedicated to this functionality, I feel like it should have more options. 🤷♂️
Looks like I’m sticking with PhoneTrack for now which means my Nextcloud instance has been relegated to app platform instead of all-in-one file manager.
EDIT: Didn’t notice the wake lock setting, trying it for a bit with that off to see if that helps
I got a minimum traccar instance running last night (no db, config, etc…) and it seemed to be working great. Later, I noticed battery usage on my android device was a bit higher than normal. Not thinking much about it, I went about my business. This morning I was still seeing higher than average battery usage. I checked the client logs and saw a ton of “failed to send” messages. I checked the server and the registration page came up. Apparently, my minimal setup failed to persist the data and, at some point, I redeployed my stack and lost everything.
My suspicion is that the repeated failures were causing the battery drain so I’m trying again with a full db setup but not having much luck so far. I’ll check back in after I either succeed or give up.
The UI for traccar is way cleaner than phonetrack but if the battery usage doesn’t compare, it’s a no-go. Phonetrack has just been invisible and functional so it’s got some big shoes to fill
While I think “sucks” might be a bit of an overstatement, I agree with your point. I’m already running Syncthing as my main method of spreading important files around to different drives so the file sync part of Nextcloud isn’t that important to me.
I think this thread proves they failed in not creating controversy
