The issue is, that people always say this but then people don’t donate.
People have server costs and living costs and ads are realistically the only way to contribute to those. I always swing €5 here and there to developers whos apps I use often but most people don’t: look at the Ko-fi page of small devs and they probably have less than €50 total, That’s a couple months of server costs probably.
Wonder if this can be used to power ZigBee smart sensors. My current battery ones last about 2 years on a coin cell
Works fine on an 11th Gen i5. Not fast but not slow
I think this is a bit unfair. Most Google Takeout requests are fulfilled in seconds or minutes. Obviously collating 100GB of photos into a zip takes time.
And it’s not googles fault you have internet issues: even a fairly modest 20Mbps internet connection can do 50GB in 6h. If you have outages that’s on your ISP not Google. As others have said, have it download to a VPS or Dropbox etc then sync it from there. Or call your ISP and tell them to sort your line out, I’ve had 100℅ uptime on my VDSL copper line for over 2 years.
I was able to use Google Takeout and my relatively modest 50Mbps connection to successfully Takeout 200GB of data in a couple of days.
Reolink doorbell is great. Comes in a WiFi or PoE configuration. Can be used with their app with a local NVR, or used as an IP cam into your own NVR.
My USB KVM switch uses them
