I rolled back the app to an older version before this was required and blocked it from network or updating. The only feature I use is the gps data over bluetooth and remote shutter. Canon can go F*** themselves with this nonsense

Exactly that. State into the void and let my thoughts wonder

I hate to say it, but i kinda saw this coming. Ever since they went public, i lost trust in them as they become beholden to profit maximizing shareholders. I switched away 3 years ago. The part I didn't expect was the lies and insolvency.

I switched to StorJ, which supports S3 and works as a drop in replacement for a lower price.

Another good drop in alternative that speaks S3 is scaleway. Their based in France, but it's a bit more pricy, especially with the US$ taking a nosedive against the euro.

I think I get maybe half of those, but can someone explain why Ohio is on the list?

It doesnt look real but Quokka's exist. They live exclusively on a small island off the coast of Perth. Rottnest island. It's Dutch and it translates to the rat's nest.

Has the stock android experience really gotten this bad? So glad I switched to GrapheneOS. I'm not even aware of all the places there trying to shove ai crap into. All these big companies must be really desperate to justify the billions of dollars they spent developing this stuff.

Its does, but its less annoying and actually has an off switch

I think the trick here is to not use Google. The Wikipedia page for the movie heat is the first result on DuckDuckGo

Tailscale is how I access my server. I've got a domain name that points to the internal tailscale IP address, but that's not really necessary

I run uptime-kuma on a cheap VPS and have it ping my external ports on the home server. If the house loses internet I still get alerts.

People who micromanage, either directed at me or someone else

That's a huntsman. Not dangerous to you
