Jeg hører ofte, senest i #prompt, at ønsket om at man skal kunne bruge #mitid på degoogled enheder er urimeligt. At man ikke kan forvente at få understøttelse på operativsystemer med meget få brugere.

Mens jeg er enig i denne udlægning er den også misforstået. Problemet er ikke, at jeg vil have en native app til MarkOS. Problemet er at jeg vil have at Android-appen - appen de allerede har lavet - skal virke uden at kræve at Google på alle tidspunkter har snablen inde i min enhed.

MitID kræver en telefon med play store, der kan verificere at din telefon ikke er rooted. Det betyder at jeg er tvunget til at give Google afgang til min telefon. Eller Apple. Jeg kan ikke køre Graphene eller andet, der giver mig mere sikkerhed og privatliv på min telefon og samtidig bruge MitID uden kodeviser.

Dette kræver ikke et stort udviklingsarbejde fra producenten, det kræver at de fjerner en sikkerhed der tvangsgifter danske borgere ind i et forhold med amerikanske techgiganter.

It's been a while since I posted a suspicious #bunny

I find it interesting, that when I build a #homeassistant dashboard, then I'm basically working with a state machine. Show the state of these entities. Conditionally on these states, show these cards.

While when I'm doing automations for my lights and other non-dashboard entities, then I'm not able to work in the same way - in that case I have to wait for a trigger, and then I fire off some actions and hope they take.

Is it currently possible to set a desired state during automations? Like, if the alarm is on, this light should be blue. If the Wiim is playing, then the amplifier should be on. If it's between 6:30 and 7:30 then the bedroom lights should be on. Switches would then just set variables that define the desired state of a light.

In the latest series of #spiderman movies we have:
- Homecoming
- Far from home
- No way home

The now one is called... Brand new day.

What drove the executives to not name it Home Alone? He has no friends, his aunt is dead, it fits with the naming scheme, it's perfect!

The first part of the summary is even: "A forgotten Peter Parker lives alone [..]"

So I got a new phone, and while I'm patiently waiting for the military grade cover to arrive (seriously, it's being shipped from the UK, but every day it's like "we moved your package from that desk to this desk"), so my new phone won't suffer from child proximity or the consequences of being as slippery as a stick of butter in the sun, I'm only using it sparingly. However, in this short transition period, it's real annoying that #signalapp cannot run on two phones at once!

I know, molly is a thing, and I should probably try it out, but I'd just really like it if signal could do this one thing for me.

@svuorela@helvede.net For at jeg kan bruge MitID app har jeg brug for:

1. Min telefon. Den skal jeg have.
2. Min finger, eller en kode til at låse appen op.

Det er vel to faktorer.

Det kunne være spændende hvis man kan få den til at spille på Graphene. Men det er naturligvis ikke hensigtsmæssigt at man skal hacker sig udenom et teknisk krav (som i så fald vil være ineffektivt).

So I guess I'm upgrading from my Pixel 7 pro to a Samsung galaxy S26 Ultra (Through no expense apart from a cover). It's striking just how similar the form factor of the two phones are. The size is pretty much identical, the main difference being how the camera bump on the Samsung is moronically parked to the side making the phone wobble when lying on a table. The camera is hopefully better though.

Still, not much has happened in the last 4 years.

It really is sad that it ended up being "phone" winning out over "PDA". Personal Digital Addiction is just much better at describing what it does.

So somehow, entirely outside of my control, I became the owner of a Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra. Ok, maybe I had a moment of boredom and exerted the tiniest bit of control towards something futile, but honestly I should not be trusted to do things!

Anyway, while I wasn't surprised to learn that it had an AI assistant installed, I did find the FOUR assistants I had to either uninstall or disable depending on how deeply it was baked into the system, a bit excessive.

Bixby - Samsung AI, disabled
Gemini - Google AI, disabled
Copilot - Microsoft AI, uninstalled
Perplexity - uh, its own thing? Uninstalled

I'm now wondering if I have another rogue AI on the phone that I didn't notice...
