I hate modern tech. When I was naiver I would see this project as incredibly cool and fascinating; I still think is very cool from a technical perspective. But knowing where and how it'll be used, is just sad.

    Fun fact: you van use something similar to explain the law of ideal gasses:

    PV=nRT

    so if you increase Volume and keep the other variables constant, Temperature should increase. Now blow air out of your mouth with a small lip's aperture, and you get cold air; try the same with open lips and you get hot air.

    Note: this is an oversimplification of the process, but the principle remains.

    Easiest is probably with a DNS firewall to block all Samsung traffic. I recommend NextDNS.

    Next level would be using ADB to uninstall tipycally uninstallable-apps.

    Final level would be replacing your stock Android with something like LineageOS or eOS. I have no experience with either of those, other than installing eOS to a friend, but I use GrapheneOS and it's such a joy, I can't imagine using any other Android ever.

    My previous cellphone was a Samsung with stock Android and the difference with GrapheneOS is insane. I'm talking going Windows-to-Linux-levels of using software that isn't constantly spitting on your face kind of insane.

    Reading some comments have me in awe. 3 people live in our housr and we use 5 kWh, and that feels like a lot already. That's with a gaming PC and a small server.

    We cook with gas and have no AC, so maybe the difference with comments and OP it's due to that, but still, wow.

    Not the best overall, but it's very recent, just 1 week ago. I joined a simracing championship, and it has a solid roaster, including the best player in my country; he's eSports level, top 100 in the world and has represented my country at international level.

    The race was time-based instead of lap-based, which means you don't know exactly how many laps will there be, and it depends on things like leader's pace, whether they change tires, etc . I was fighting top 3, and everybody at the head was fuel saving for +1 lap, which meant they would have to do an extra pitstop. I did the math, and found that saving for +2 laps only in the second stint would save me a few seconds overall, just barely enough to offset the time loss of the aggressive fuel-saving required.

    So anyways, it comes the first pitstop, I decide not to change tires which gains me a few seconds, and end up leading. This dude catches and easily passes me, as I'm almost 6 seconds slower than him, but I keep calm and trust in my strategy. We reach the final lap and he has to box, and the distance between us is small enough so I'm unsure if he'll catch me. When I realize he probably couldn't, I became so anxious that I just forgot to drive lol. In the end, I crossed the finish line ans my engine runs out of fuel 200 meters ahead, but it was enough for me to baaaaarely win him. It felt amazing, specially knowing I had no chance at beating them driving, so I ended up beating them at maths :).

    And can I make an andress like "radar.local"

    I think you also need a reverse proxy for this to work, so your NAS knows that radarr.local has to redirect to Radarr's port. I use nginx-proxy-manager and it feels nice and easy to use.

    Click the "Show legacy phones" or something similar. Some cellphones were supported, but no longer receive updates, so they do not appear in the supported list unless you explicitly tell the page to show them for you.
