If it uses health connect to send the data it's still all good. And if you bought something recently made, it should.

Just to be clear - it's the API that's shutting down, not the app. Not that Google has put in effort for the app either, it hasn't updated since health connect afaik, but health connect is the health and fitness tooling going forward.

Fitbit has health connect support now, so even if they shift and drop Fit (I hope not, though I also hoped they wouldn't kill the web interface), and make Fitbit the main Google fitness app, it will still work with Fitbit as the app.

Not really the question I was answering, but that's not actually a health connect problem.

Withings had an issue, and the way they were connecting to it, which caused a battery drain.
To be specific, withings health mate was constantly reading health connect data, which caused a massive power drain.

I'm not aware of any other battery issues with health connect other than Withings and their Health Mate app (specifically reading, not writing).

(Edit: why, why would autocorrect change writing to riding? For shame. To me, for not noticing sooner.)

You can take a look at the meshtastic project - https//www.meshtastic.org - people have made some pretty wild solutions, it's pretty cheap to build too.

I've got an order pending while I decide which setup I want to play with first - but I have a feeling I'm just going to go with one portable and one to leave in the office, and go from there.

Regardless of it's potential use for protests, it's a fun project!

Lots of people interact with trans folks on a daily basis and have no idea. I'd bet she encountered someone trans at some point in her life and had no idea.

But your point 100% stands and I agree with it

Since the start. Forget working with them, it's a rough go to even try and communicate with them.

And that goes back to mailing list days, creating a personal grudge against Gnome so firm that I haven't used it since the early 2000s.

Thankfully there's KDE for my general use and a wide variety of lightweight options for other uses.

Meraki.

It's a crap platform, but it's the company's fault.

Just like the windows laptop.

Sometimes you can blame the partnership agreement for that. Some manufacturers will have a MAP (minimum advertised price) and the distributor would be in violation of their contract if they showed it publicly.

Though that just shifts to being a manufacturer problem with the same result. Just saying it may not be the distributor being weird about pricing.

what will be my next server operating system (Fedora Server, Fedora CoreOS, NixOS), your experience and opinion

I want to reset my server soon and I'm toying with the idea of using a different operating system. I am currently using Ubuntu Server LTS. However, I have been toying with the idea of using Fedora Server (I use Fedora on my laptop and made good experiences with it) or even Fedora CoreOS. I also recently installed NixOS on my...

Proxmox.

Each service becomes an LXC. Docker containers can be migrated to LXC, or be contained within an LXC dedicated to docker.

Running out of processing power? Add another server, add to a cluster, and migrate services (LXC or VM) over.

Having run Fedora, Debian, Ubuntu, CentOS, RHEL, slack, even Oracle Linux - Proxmox is what I run for myself (and some clients).
