That went so far over his head, I’m not sure he heard the woosh.

They just did this to me. How can I tell them they failed this test?

I just recently stood up a self-hosted ttrss myself, the instance I used from just after the death of reader fizzled out due to server moves, and all the feeds there also fizzeled out. I’m thirsty for some myself.

My local Government’s CMS has a bunch of RSS feeds I added, useful to try and stay on top of things. You may be surprised to if you dig into your local town’s web site. UNFORTUNATELY my State Government’s legislature seems to have HAD rss feeds, but the link was removed, and it’s commented out in the HTML source.

You can drink US Government actions raw and unfiltered from the many RSS feeds available at the firehose here: https://www.govinfo.gov/feeds

Are you posting in /b/ ? The moderators of /b/ are also freed from many of the usual rules, and they have often removed posts or issued bans for any and no reason at all.

The URL about:mozilla was always full of fun :)

I was about to say – you probably don’t want to connect the wifi antenna plugs of two cards into each other – that’d probably overdrive each other’s receiver and damage the cards or cause other issues, unless you had an attenuator in there somewhere. But it looks like you’re just using the antenna loop from the laptop into the esp32 …

Busy with day to day affairs, gotta pay rent/mortgage/medical bills, gotta feed the family, gotta keep working, can’t take risks, …

It would be the point of no return for the USA, and the conclusive end to the “Pax Americana” . Invading a peaceful neighbor? Unthinkable for a “so-called” stable country. The rest of the world rally to Canada’s side, there would be an effort to ‘contain’ the further damage we could do. (Mexico would finally pay for that wall :-/ ) We would no longer be trusted, and in that vacuum of power the rest of the countries of the world would be thrown into such a frenzy to fill that power, or to align with who they think could.

Oh, Did Russia withdraw from Ukraine? Why are we ending this punishment? /s

The battery turning into a Spicy pillow is always a Concern for using laptop as an always powered on server. So even though you will be away from it, make sure that there is a way for someone to keep an eye on it, once every week or two.

That said, I have been using a dell laptop as a desk workstation (and remote use) with an uptime of 2.5 years at this point.

I also use syncthing. And it works pretty well. There is some turmoil with the android version in light of changes so the underlying sdk. And I am not sure there is an iOS syncthing that would work as well. I actually use it primarily to sync my keepass databases, and before Immich, my photos.

The photo management Immich brings makes it a nice alternative for that use case, but either way I need to have one or more servers elsewhere managing storage so I can get things off of my phone into a system I can control.

I use Immich because I have multiple devices and multiple people uploading photos to it , so we can all organize together.

Self hosting anything also gives you a lot of practice and experience (and confidence) to also self hosting anything for others, an important skill for many to have in order to have a more distributed internet.

/me pines for the days of protocol over interface. NNTP + killfiles were the bees knees. Then we could just all pick our own interface to connect to any lemmy host.

I mean, isn’t the solution pretty simple? if Russia leaves Ukraine’s territory, then Ukraine will stop shooting at Russians? The pretense Russia used to invade was entirely made up. Any concession to Russia, even an inch means that they win, and their tactics work, and they will do it again.

That was fast. Story on hacker news this morning about rectangular livestock in UK art, this image is in that page. Them on 4chan. Then in lemmy. We’re moving up the food chain!!

Zigbee all the things.

A hub or a zigbee dongle with home assistant is open, extensible, reliable, and doesn’t need a dozen bespoke apps to work.

Akshually, we’re called lurkers.

This is the first thing I have heard from her about what she’s working on since she had her “wings clipped”. Hope she is still doing good…

Revolt is kinda “centralized”. You can host your own version, but they seem to actively discourage you from doing so.

https://github.com/jgraph/drawio/blame/dev/LICENSE <-- that’s … a rather specific and recent change. Is there a story here ?
