Running Grapheneos right? Running Grapheneos right?

Every time I see another article about Slopify I’m only more glad I spun up a Navidrome server last year. I love being able to support the artists I care about more directly by buying their music and actually owning it.

I did the math the other day, at the per stream payout rate Slopify gives their artists (~$.005), you would have to stream a song(s) 3,000 times to equal a single $15 album purchase. If you go with an average 3 minute song that’s ONE HUNDRED AND FIFTY HOURS. Fuckin scam.

Didn’t find no cow, found a lot of coc tho

Glad I’m not the only one who noticed lol

Installing Grapheneos has been fantastic for the last several months since I made the jump. It quite literally took longer for the phone to update Google’s Android out of the box than for me to rip that shit out and install Grapheneos lol.

I’ll say the best thing about it is the flexibility to your level of security needs. You can completely run it exactly as you would a normal Android phone, or you could go balls to the wall and have separate user accounts for different services and only use non-google play store apps. I personally chose not to have separate user accounts because while they will show notifications, it doesn’t allow (at least not that I could figure out) you to show the content of said notifications. It was immediately annoying as I don’t want to sign into another account just to find out it was a notification I didn’t care about.

I went with a SciFi ship theme, my main server is VMS-HORIZON (Virtual Machine Ship). The VMs have ship component names like AUDIO-CORE (navidrome) and VISUAL-CORE (Immich).

My Raspberry Pi is named ORBITER, like a orbiting shuttle/satellite, and the VM it has is called BEACON (for Gotify)

THANK YOU! My brain literally pronounced it like that and I came to see if anyone else commented it lol

I second Beszel, it’s such a clean interface, and I can also have it send alerts through Gotify if my shit breaks!

You found a fantastic band to get into! My wife and I are bummed Ghost’s current tour is done, we went to four of them because the production value of their latest tour was so damn good.

I could be completely wrong here, but it looks like the chart is comparing companies that go into debt to get started, and then make back that profit once their service/product is out there. OpenAI presumably has made zero profit yet, so they’ve only accomplished going $218B in debt.

Awww yea, here comes The Satanic Temple to even things out!

Or until they just have it use randomized usernames.

This guy lucid dreams

Where it deserves to go tbh

Sounds like the perfect villain that’s been following them the whole time.
