Hacker News

I've been using Google Timeline (Location History) for years to remind me of what I have been doing on a specific day. However, Google will no longer store data in its cloud (https://www.techradar.com/phones/google-maps-will-soon-delete-your-location-history-unless-you-tell-it-not-to ). This brings me troubles because I really don't like to operate the cell phone when I have a much more powerful PC at hand.

I would like to ask for advises for open source self hosted alternatives that collect location data quietly in background. Here are what I've found:

https://github.com/traccar/traccar (server, client) https://github.com/mendhak/gpslogger (client) https://github.com/home-assistant (server, has location tracking integration) https://github.com/owntracks (server, client) https://github.com/Freika/dawarich (server) https://github.com/aaronpk/Overland-iOS (iOS client) https://github.com/OpenHumans/overland_android (Android client, inactive) https://github.com/aaronpk/Compass (server) https://github.com/julien-nc/phonetrack (web client, use Nextcloud as server) Any recommendations or tips?

Thanks!

As of the last 24 hours I have observed the same behaviour while archiving HN posts using "Save Page Now" feature of Internet Archive's Wayback Machine. After I start the page archival proccess it downloads only the favicon.ico file and stops.

Is this a result of some HN policy? If not, how can Internet Archive team be notified, aside from sending a useless error report with no details?
