My device is rooted and I use NeoBackup to backup apps with all their data (including what the app developer marked as "should not be backed up", often data that they would like you to backup on their own cloud instead). Syncthing

Recirculating ranges are all the rage these days for cheap installations, but they're only usable with lightly smelling cooking. They just have a metal grid that filters and stops grease (which you have to wash often enough) and a carb

I do, and frying things is not a problem for me. I was explaining why people don't do it: not everyone has a perfect kitchen and in fact, most people have impractical and inadequate kitchens with bad ranges, little space, too much cl

Actual range hoods mess with ventilation, so it's easier for builders to stick a recirculating one and not have to worry about ventilation imbalance. There's also the belief that it will somehow break the main ventilation motor be

For higher value goods people usually prefer others, I think Backmarket.com is one of the main ones (it's definitely the main option for electronics in France) but there's also Refurbed (know it from Belgium but I think it's

For some banking apps, you have to root the device on the contrary, to be able to install other apps that will make the banking app run on a custom ROM. It's completely absurd, but it's how it works today.

My solution was to use OsmAnd with a custom list of POIs that includes toilets. This way I got a map that shows at a glance where the closest toilets are, as well as playgrounds, picnic tables, castles, ruins, water mills and lavoir/wa

I don't really see France trying in any way to ask me to spy for it. And to steal what, the formula for Belgian chocolate or fricadelle?

I don't understand why you would bring mentions of LGBT, pride flags or misogyny into this? These stained glasses are replacing relatively modern, abstract geometric patterns from the 19th century with figurative religious imagery on t

Not OP, but gonic is very lightweight and takes little resources. It lives on a machine that serves a few websites and also hosts my photos with photoprism (by far the most resource intensive service on this server). It's a basic N100

I self-host my email, and I backup my server. My Gmail account, which I seldom use, gets redirected to an address at my own server, so it automatically gets backed up as well.

If that's your only nitpick then just look at France that has similar privacy protections, and doesn't collect religious data.

The problem with wheel-side dynamos is that they barely work when it's raining (which is often correlated with the moments you actually need light) and they add so much drag (and noise). Hub dynamos are indeed more expensive (around 50

I don't know about Germany, but here in Belgium front hub dynamos are very common. They're never discharged and always work, so I don't see a reason not to use that.

The French dub is famous (in France of course) for saying gigowatts. Giga just wasn't as commonly used an SI prefix as it is now I guess.

Organic Maps or OSM-based maps in general are great, but for routing nothing can replace Google Maps (or Waze) here yet, because they are the only ones with actual, near real-time traffic data. And here in Belgium, your 100 km trip could ta
