Interesting. Thanks for the extra effort to help out an internet stranger!

I’ll dig some more into these little buggers!

Awesome, thanks!

This little thing looks very interesting. What is the battery life like? Is the handwriting-to-text stuff only viable in specific apps, or can it be used in place of keyboard input?

I would probably use it just like my Kindle, keeping it in airplane mode until I actually need to download something (or in this case, upload notes).

Yeah. It’s weird. Sometimes a show will pop up to load via jellyfin, which I didn’t use.

There are still some design choices in Kodi that I don’t like (e.g. media continues playing in the background, and messes up the home navigation), but I just need to search their wiki for answers.

Yeah, that’s what I finally settled on. My only gripe is that it doesn’t sync with the homescreen/launcher.

My initial test with Kodi gave me xbmc flashbacks, and felt like I had gone back in time. But a more modern skin and different ui sounds make a huge difference

Just a cheap and reliable bucket to rsync my local backups to. I’m leaning toward Hetzner, but was checking out filen after your suggestion, too.

An over-complicated solution I was tossing around with some friends was to set up a cheap NAS at our respective homes, and just rsync to one another. Then we can just sneakernet the drives if we need a recovery.

I’m in the same boat, actually. I’m hosting at home, but want to set up off-site backups, and am looking for something cheap and reliable.

As for the actual process, rsync is probably the best method. I just need to find a good host

I know you can register a google account with an external/non-gmail account. However, you can’t transfer the workplace accounts, or reassign them to other things. Once you close your workspace account/subscription, they’re vapor.

If there’s a way to do it, that would be fabulous, of course!

Unfortunately, that’s not an option. I’m going to continue using the same email address, and I don’t want to continue spending the $30ish a month for services and storage I’m no longer using.

Sadly, phone/tablet only at this point. I may give it a go anyway, but I’m not expecting much bc it’s meant for touch, not keyboard/remotes

Seconding this. Frigate is great, and I’ve been running it on an ancient Debian box with a coral tpu for a few years. The only dedicated camera I’ve had has been at the front door, but cams I’ve used for testing and “goofing off” have been great at motion detection and object recognition.
