Small USB-C (female) to HDMI (male) Adapter? (eviltoast.org)
 

On my last trip I stayed at an apartment and one evening I just wanted to watch an episode on the TV mounted near the bed. I was asking how I get may laptop (MacBook Air M4 2025, I had with me because I've worked the last week of the trip) to the TV. I travel #onebag and minimalistic, so I have a 2m long USB-C cable and don't want to carry much more. I thought about getting a USB-C to HDMI Adapter https://www.amazon.com/-/de/dp/B0D45FK6B4 ( sorry for Amazon link. Could not find it anywhere else) to even connect my Pixel 9 to a TV. Does any1 has experience with such a setup? Any downsides?

I don't get it. Of course it doesn't help with IP tracking of fingerprinting, but it deletes all cookies when I leave a site. My browsers runs very long on desktop and mobile, so Firefox's 'Delete cookies on close' doesn't help much.

    CMS for managing borrowed items with family and friends (eviltoast.org)
     

    I believe it's a way away from consumerism if you don't own everything yourself and share things with people nearby.

    I'm looking for a selfhostable (docker-compose) project where everybody can easily add items (maybe with a link to a manual) and the borrowing stuff is manged.

    OIDC is a plus because it's to great with pocket-id.

    i have a nice emag PDF collection and browsing the filesystem via a simple nginx file-browser is ok so far, but i miss the cover view, bookmarking of pages and a PDF search.

    i sort the mags in this kind of folder-structure via flexget (but sort them manually into a year folder if a mag has many releases per year).

    i tried Kavita today which provide a nice cover view, but there is no grouping of magazines and i can not set a bookmark on a PDF page. I think it's desinged for book/comics/mangas.

    Does anyone has another nice suggestion for a emag collection?

    Or an idea how i can get grouping for my first-level folders in Kavita?

    I haven't tried WG on 443/udp yet. On my last UK journey I had it on the default WG port and it was blocked a few times. Will try 443/udp @ homelab next time. Every other advanced obfuscating solution sounds pretty complicated and I'm not sure if there will be time to handle this during a journey.

    I think I will stick to wireguard on port 443/udp. Hope UDP is open in strict networks. Maybe someone hasn't heard of HTTP/3.

    Everything else sounds not necessary because I don't travel to china or similar. stunnel needs termux on android in-between? This adds too many moving parts IMO.

    AmneziaWG will enter wg-easy in v16 and WG Tunnel already supports it. Don't know how hard it it to configure, but the Jc, Jmin, Jmay, ... settings in WG Tunne look confusing.

    a VPN that is easily self-hostable and resistant to blocking? (eviltoast.org)
     

    Hi, i'm looking for a VPN that:

    • is easily deployable via a docker-compose
    • has an Android App and it doesn't drain the battery too much
    • hides as regular HTTPS traffic so it's not blockable by Firewalls. (I don't need strong censorship resistance; it just has to work in offices and hotel WiFis.)
    • Bonus: A server like caddy can also accept HTTPS traffic for some regular websites next to the VPN server.

    https://github.com/TrustTunnel/TrustTunnel sounds interesting, but the PR for docker compose was closed.

    Do you know something else?
