I signed up yesterday for imouto.pics, but it’s now down. Then I remember that burggit has its own sharkey instance.

Wages are the biggest expense most businesses have. Corporations would be perfectly happy with reducing you to a downtrodden serf as soon as it’s cost effective. Open-source AI might even help that happen sooner.

Don’t underestimate the power of money. Corporations will fight hard to survive. They’ll find a way to stay profitable and make themselves seem indispensable. Theoretically, we could live without corporations now, but we don’t. Why do you think that is?

just the Sharkey instance (dill.burggit.moe) pretty much. I never cared too much that burrgit was specifically a link aggregator like reddit anyway, so this isn’t too big of a deal for me. once i got used to the way sharkey works, I actually preferred it anyway.

Somebody has to make the hardware platforms, and it’s not going to be people at home with 3D printers.

Yeah, I don’t think design was the problem here, once the software exists. That machine just has a lot of parts, each with a cost attached.

Even if most people owned one robot (humanoid or not), obedient GAI would enable rich people to own armies of them without worrying about pesky things like revolt.

Relatively dumb robots could accelerate inequality just by increasing capital earnings vs. labour, but we’ve been dealing with that for a couple of centuries already.

just_another_person,

Exactly. This who can afford it elevate themselves to a different class of citizen. Those who MAKE the tech just get rich.

CanadaPlus,

Yup.

I’m glad we’re seriously discussing AI safety as a society, but for this exact reason I wish more people questioned whether “obedience” is a good metric of success for it. A paperclip optimisier is bad, but whoever has the password getting unlimited power could actually be more fucked up. A ball of paperclips is at least benign, once it’s finished.

I’m not really sure, I have a few ideas but nothing that is a direct alternative to Burggit. There are two things I use Burggit for and that’s to view loli hentai and to occasionally talk about hentai games. There are a few websites I know of for viewing loli hentai but for talking about games, the only website I currently know of is F95zone and I have an account there but outside of using it to download games, I’ve only ever commented once and I’ve never made an actual post there before. I’m sure that F95zone would be fine, I’d just have to get used to how different the platform is.

f95zone disallows certain types of loli - see Rule 7. I think lewdcorner and allthefallen are somewhat less strict on this.

@faxeneda@burggit.moe avatar

I have read F95zone’s rules and I have seen people complain about how vague rule 7 is. While I have been using ATFBooru for a while now, I’ve never had an account there and this is the first time I’m hearing about lewdcorner. I’ll check them out.

Well, it has to run in the background. That said I haven’t noticed a significant uptick in battery consumption. The battery consumption you see might be from something else.

Sunny,

I wonder what causes it really, didn’t use to happen, but seem to be a common problem for many.

avidamoeba,
@avidamoeba@lemmy.ca avatar

Could be anything. What I do to reduce the possibility of some app going haywire in the background, I restrict background usage to all apps that I’m sure I don’t need to run in the background. Obviously Tailscale isn’t one of them because I need it. 😅 Also I started using Shelter to put untrusted apps like WhatsApp into a work profile and completely disable them when not in use. I haven’t had many battery drain incidents since then.

praise_idleness, to android in Tailscale running at full force during the night?

I wonder why I never had this issue. I just checked my Samsung phone and it barely used anything. I turn it on almost always.

Sunny,

I can’t recall it being an issue previously… 🙁

ParetoOptimalDev, to android in Tailscale running at full force during the night?

I was going to say use github.com/juanfont/headscale, but I dont see an android client.

DarkSirrush,

It uses the tailscale client.

I want to agree… at least until we outlaw personal implementations for safety or something 🙄

Wolfram, to android in Tailscale running at full force during the night?

It’s a known issue with tailscale. It drains my battery pretty bad as well. I had to opt for wireguard for remote access instead.

Sunny,

Ah that’s a shame, I love using Tailscale 🙁

BearOfaTime, (edited )

I’ve seen these kinds of issues over the years with different tools on a variety of phones. It’s so hard to know what the root cause is.

Some phones are just fine,others eat batteries, even when on the same versions of Android and the app.

Sometimes it’s just so hard to figure out.

sloppy_diffuser, to android in Tailscale running at full force during the night?

I’m on Graphene. Mullvad is only 1% for me with 16h30min since last on a charge. I’m at 56% with 1h30m screen time.

I used GPS as I did some driving with maps and my music app accounting for 29% of my battery usage.

I throw my phone on the charger at night figuring battery tech and software management is good enough.

Are you WiFi or mobile? I get shitty mobile service so if I’m off WiFi my battery tends to go to shit. The VPN usually accounts for more as I assume it keeps reconnecting.

fmstrat, (edited )

Wasn’t a big issue with Graphene that it doesn’t support any form of smart battery charging?

And before the responses pour in, yes, I’ve read akc3n.page/posts/battery-management/. And no, there is not a quoted source for a device skipping maintenance mode at 80%, or to refute the many studies showing the benefit to lithium cells, or to cover wireless or non-PD charging. When a “solution” is using a smart plug with HA to stop charging, it’s still an issue.

Edit: I do like GrapheneOS. This is just a decision I don’t agree with.

sloppy_diffuser,

This is news to me. That said, I’m usually one generation behind but upgrade every 2 years as my phone is usually EOL for software updates by the end of the period. I try to time it so I can get a replacement paid outright at mid-range prices.

With the Pixel 8 introducing extended software support, I’ll have to dig more into this.

Sunny,

Indeed, I think ur right my mobile network usage is 68%… So I’ll avoid using that over night.

maya, to android in Tailscale running at full force during the night?

After checking on tailscale privacy policy, I also suggest to drop tailscale and use mullvadvpn if you live in EU or US (it is great) or protonvpn. You can install WG Tunnel from F-Droid and add wireguard configuration from your VPN provider as well. It is consume only 1-3% during the day on my device.

Moonrise2473,

It’s not comparable. Tailscale creates a virtual network between your devices allowing to reach your server outside your home while other mentioned services create a virtual network to someone else’s server

praise_idleness,

Tailscale is very different from those servivez.

avidamoeba,
@avidamoeba@lemmy.ca avatar

If you want to preserve privacy while utilizing Tailscale’s functions beyond a VPN, one can deploy Headscale on their own infra and be free from any spying.

proceduralnightshade, to android in Tailscale running at full force during the night?

I’m on Graphene too and I once read that the modems used in Pixel phones are pretty trashy and drain a ton of battery. If I filter my battery usage by system, it shows that network standby almost consumes half of my battery charge (~46%).

Maybe the other guy here is right and it’s a VPN issue (too)? idk. Anyway, I didn’t really found a solution for this except leaving my phone on airplane mode at night.

Sunny,

Ah thanks for pointing that out, I did the same and see that my Mobile Network usage stands for 68% of my battery usage… Yikes!

bokherif,

Tbf Tensors suck ass

hemko, to android in Tailscale running at full force during the night?

This seems to be a normal issue with VPN apps on Android, they drain battery like crazy

massive_bereavement,

Both protonvpn and mullvad are at 1% for a day.
Y'all stop using crappy vpns.

astrsk,
@astrsk@kbin.run avatar

Same with WireGuard, 1% all day every day.

Sunny,

I’ll look into using just WG then! Thanks

Moonrise2473,

Problem is that setting wg is nowhere as user friendly as just the single click of tailscale

Sunny,

Yeah thats why I love Tailscale so much, its so simple :)

michael_palmer,

PiVPN is the easiest way to use WireGuard imo. Even has QR code generation right in your terminal emulator. It’s nothing more than a few simple scripts that wrap the server functionality but I’ve been using it for years.

hemko,

No idea about those, but wireguard and openvpn were terrible for battery life, only ever used if I needed to access something at home

sunzu,

As the apps or as the VPN service?

I run both via VPN app and i have similar results to @astrsk

hemko,

I had openvpn server on pfsense couple years ago, and now wireguard on Mikrotik

sunzu,

ohh i see. i was walking phone.

aint router CPU super underpowered? and it would manage a lot of move traffic?

hemko,

Nah don’t see that being factor, the small Mikrotik is handling it very well for my small homelab, and pfsense was running on stupidly overkill 8c16t / 32gb memory because didn’t have any more fitting hardware at that point

Edit: the huge battery drain was on phone, with VPN client

Sunny,

Tailscale isn’t a classic vpn such as Proton and Mullvad. Tailscale crates a network between your own devices, but has Mullvad as an integration for those who want to run Mullvad as an exit node. I don’t need a vpn to mask my location, I need it to connect my devices together. I’ll look into using just wire guard instead though.

AceSLS, (edited ) to android in Using FOSS app does make a positive change in Battery life. [,POCO F3] running Custom ROM

Switching from Miui to Evolution X my battery life nearly doubled

After switching to MicroG my battery life increased by roughly 40%

I hate this new normal where everything is infested with spyware by default
