Any GPS mapping app should have the option to show it, or use an app like GPS Status.

Is your GPS altitude correct?

I've never been able to get this one to work, it will say it can't detect speech even though I can hear it being played.

Many people use laptops and use other wifi networks or tether to their phone, both can expose you because of unknown firewall states or IPv6 being used.

There really isn't one that's a true alternative to WP.

There are plenty of nice static site generators, but those are significantly harder to use and not just drag and drop, they also don't have the huge plugin marketplace that WP does.

Everyone loves to complain about WP (rightfully so in some cases, it has its own problems), but will suggest alternatives that are nothing like it.

It's so much worse than WP though.

It's crazy to me that all these websites advertise pirated/stolen Microsoft keys and aren't getting in trouble for it.

By default it should be configured to allow all outgoing, and block all incoming. That's perfectly fine for a desktop/laptop and you don't need to mess with it.

You can't really do that much outgoing filtering with a firewall that will be useful, because basically everything operates on port 80/443, and often connects to the same CDNs or datacenter IPs for multiple services.

Instead DNS blocking is a much more effective way to handle it, plus uBlock Origin in your browser.

Every Logitech mouse I've owned in the past 20 years has had switches fail and start double clicking. Usually it's the middle mouse button since it uses a cheap tactile switch instead of the larger more robust micro switches.

I buy a bunch of switches off Digikey and solder in a replacement when it happens (like once a year for each mouse), but it's a hassle.

Migrate PWs to bitwarden first.

Then you can use Firefox Sync if you want to sync data between the browsers.

Or just do a one-time bookmarks export and import if you don't want to use sync.

Immich has been great, I've been running it for something like 1.5 years now I think.

I love that they clearly say that. IMO they should keep that notice around even later on.

Far too many people spin up some solution for photos or files, either selfhosted or some paid service, and use it as their only storage. Then they're surprised when data loss happens.
