The way I get around the syncing issue is to set my syncthing to sync when my phone is charging so it’s very unlikely to not be in sync, or if I change a password on the PC I’ll plug my phone into a USB and it syncs straight away.

I also use KeepassDX on Android and never have those issues.

Yeah my manager is sympathetic to it because they also have to do on call on the roster. So they know the pain of getting up at those hours of the morning. I think based on the information in this thread I have a good strategy for this.

1 carpark, carpool with partner at a set starting time or else pay thousands of dollars for parking per year. It’s not really worth it end of the day.

This is how we do it here as well but I find the lack of sleep even if I went home an hour or two earlier impacts the entirety of the workday.

Mmm I guess it’s a give and take scenario with the lifespan analogy. I think I feel more useless to the business as I sit there feeling ever so much more tired throughout the workday and the struggle to focus increases throughout the day. Thanks for the input!

This is an interesting way of doing it. The added bonus would be nil traffic on the way into work and an early (but on time) finish. Thanks for this perspective.

That’s awesome, best of luck it stays that way!

Dang, how does your isp feel about that many machines talking out to the internet, have they made you pay for business plans yet?

If you want privacy try njalla. A bit more expensive but they do try hide as much data as possible and I’ve never had any downtime with them.

Yes it’s been like that forever. Before it used to outright block the entire domain.

I just run a full desktop and either use a browser for things like youtube and I have jellyfin media player for other media

I use a beelink nuc, put on Linux and just connect it via HDMI to my tv, this way I have no real restrictions and I can keep it up to date easily.

Yep, after you realize the majority of the stuff you can buy of Amazon is mass produced trash with zero quality. It was easy to remove.

I do this exact thing and after a year or so of running my invidious instance locally I’m not banned and never had any issues and I use it about 5 hours per day give or take. Hope this helps.

Looks like revolut works in Australia but based on their help page

“maximum of 20new virtual cards every 30 days”

Unless you need to burn through virtual cards like nobody’s business this would be more than enough, all your bank would see is you sending money to revolut so all those data points on what you spend money on in the banking apps won’t work anymore.

If it were up to me, the first boot I would make sure theres no internet access either via Ethernet or wifi that ensures the computer cannot phone home to its mothership. From there either reinstall windows fresh or straight to Linux if you want to avoid spyware.

I set up flexo for Arch Linux update caching and squid proxy for Alpine, Debian. This stops me from having to download the same files over and over.
