Podman has a built-in automatic update feature that monitors the source repo. Could be useful for you.

Javascript is a beautiful language where '3' - 1 = 2 but '3' + 1 = '31'.

We do jira + bitbucket + confluence + teams.

You joke but people do that. I've seen people repurpose their old android phones to host small services on their home networks. I won't comment on how reasonable it is because battery, but it's a thing.

They're probably talking about Samsung TVs, not their android phones/tablets. Installing jellyfin on those things can be a chore. My experience with LG was similar. The official build was out of date and riddled with issues that didn't exist on other versions. It refused to play videos that worked well enough on other devices, transcode or no.

How does that work? Based on imei perhaps? Does spoofing that not do the trick?

I just checked. In the online stores of the 3 largest tech chains in my country, there's exactly one 16:9 40+" monitor model available, and that's a 43" VA panel. The other 40+" stuff are weird absurdly wide curved monitors and some smart whiteboard type thing. So forgive me if I am extremely doubtful of your claim.

Lemme just pluck a 52" monitor from the 52" monitor tree where 52" monitors grow bountifully.

Same here. My parents both smoked like chimneys. I tried smoking once. Tasted awful, smelled disgusting, and made my eyes hurt like a motherfucker. Then I tried twice again on different occasions. Same experience. Just an exceedingly nasty thing overall that had not a single thing that made me wanna go back again, so that was it. I consider myself lucky that my body found it so revolting.

Yes. It could talk to another smart device and ask it to send its packages. You could be careful and connect none of the smart crap in your house to your network, but the smart fridge in your upstairs neighbor's kitchen could still be helping with smuggling your data out. Or your devices could be connected to some unsecured network around.

In any case, the only surefire way to stop your data from getting smuggled out is to physically kill all the wireless connectivity capabilities of the device. Disconnect antennae, desolder chips, scrape out pcb traces. Otherwise you're just hoping the firmware is not doing anything funny. Fortunately I think these are all hypotheticals that have not (yet) been observed in real smart home products.

OP read about the "fight the biggest baddest dude you can find on your first day" strat online and didn't stop to think about its applicability.

Its niches are nowhere near as strong as reddit though. The only reason I can't ditch reddit is small hobby subs and stuff like that. Their alternatives on lemmy are just not good enough, because of a hideous combination of lack of users and fragmentation.
