What I’d like best is to just buy them at a regular store. Not do onlines shopping in the first place. (And then figure out how to return something that was delivered with some special service. I guess you can’t drop them off at the next DHL place, like with the other Amazon stuff.)

But I guess they’re fine, too. The Amazon sellers have the same “brand” inverters like Ecoflow and Growatt.

I think the way lots of projects handle something like that is to add a plugin system to the main project, and then offer it as a plugin in a different repo.

Hmm. But with those three, the simple sets (2x400W + power inverter) seem to be ~100€ more expensive than on Amazon. Maybe I have to go with Amazon then. Thanks anyways! I’ll keep an eye on discounted offers.

You can always ask the student body. If they’re doing a good job, they’re networked and know people and procedures. Sometimes the IT helpdesk people are knowledgeable and know who makes those kinds of decisions.

And I think server hosting and paying for that might work differently than in normal life. A university has quite some IT infrastructure. Maybe they have a free VPS to spare for things like that. Maybe it has to be super secure, intergrated into the single sign-on… It’s more a political decision. Could be anywhere from free, to you need to pay half a person’s salary to moderate and maintain the instance to their (high) standards.

Any good store that will sell me a super cheap and good set including inverter here in Germany? I mean they’re on Amazon for 250€, but maybe there is a better shop?

I believe they’re still messing with sliding sync and switching that over to a new version of the protocol. There are some open issues with Dendrite:

https://github.com/element-hq/dendrite/issues?q=is%3Aissue+is%3Aopen+sliding

https://github.com/element-hq/dendrite/issues/3236

You should add some info: Which server software do you use? What version number? And maybe how you installed this, Docker?

For example “Synapse v1.119.0” That’d be the most recent one.

~~If I’m not mistaken Synapse needs an additional proxy server for sliding sync? https://github.com/matrix-org/sliding-sync/blob/main/docs/Landing.md ~~

I wonder if that’s still a thing, it’s been announced years ago. I don’t know anyone using the Google Assistant, and I removed that from my device. Have to ask some of my friends, or at the pizza place.

Nice. I think Daisy should also get a Youtube channel so we can listen to her, handling the telemarketers.

And I want that technology for my personal use as my own assistant/secretary.

As a beginner you might want to start out with one of the all-in-one turnkey operating systems like yunohost.org , dietPi.com or unRaid or a bunch of others (see the awesome-selfhosted list)

Well if you want a proper upgrade, 40TB plus redundancy and space for a GPU, I’d say you don’t want a mimi PC but a full-blown one. I built my server myself from components. It’s hard to find good numbers on power consumption and that was one of my main concerns. I had a look at some PC magazines and what kind of mainboards they recommend for a home server. Figured I wanted 6 SATA ports and I started from that. Unfortunately said magazine doesn’t have a good article right now, so I don’t know what to recommend. Another way is to look for refurbished PCs. If they’re some brand like Lenovo or Dell, you’ll find the specs online. With a N100 mini pc, I’m not so sure if that’s a big step up from your current setup… I don’t think they have more internal harddrive ports or slots for GPUs than your current laptop.

Very good answer. I’ve also spent some time analyzing some red herrings when it was something else like a bad cable or connector. And by the way, you can use the same keys in journalctl as in the usual pager (less(?)) so hit / and search for ‘unmount’, ‘disconnect’, etc. And then scroll through the log and find out what led to the situation.

No specifications of the chips?

Just make it a good amount of buttons. Not 500 that all look and feel the same. And it’ll be alright. My car is old and has very few buttons. Plus a radio and 3 large knobs to control the AC. I think that’s the best concept. I don’t even have to look at them most of the times, because it’s not that many similar ones.

Sounds like you’re blocking the servers which are supposed to push the notifications to you?! I think that’s called Google Cloud Messaging.

You’d need to figure out which blocklist you enabled that does this. And either disable it, or add an entry to your allowlist.

Or do away with GCM and set up your own push provider like ntfy and additionally use apps from F-Droid that support this different push provider.

Edit: https://github.com/AdguardTeam/AdguardForAndroid/issues/3486 and there are several other bugreports. Also make sure you’ve disabled battery optimization for the Unbound(?) app.

Nah, Those were different times. You can’t directly compare a time when is was perfectly fine to own people, or have them die in large quantities while working in the mines or building the railroads, to modern day neoliberalism and turbo capitalism. I mean a lot of time has passed since then. And we invented social capitalism, workplace safety in the meantime. We kinda agreed that forced labor is to be frowned upon. That is all connected and has it’s roots in industrialization. Yes. But living situations changed massively. The way companies are set up changed. And we’re generally not living in the age of industrialization anymore.

I’d say it has happened in the latter half of the 1900s, after WW2. At first there was an economic boom in quite some areas of the world, people got wealthier. Way more educated during the early 19th century. Especially in the USA. Wealth was distributed more evenly. And sometime after, things took a turn for the worse. For example the US disconnected from the rest of the western world with life expectancy. Healthcare was made into a rip-off. Education decreased. Newspapers, access to (neutral) information which flourished at times, became the media landscape it is today…

That all happened within the last 60 years or so.

And isn’t signing over the country to corporations something that’s been going on since the 1970s or something? I mean that comment is wrong on any level.

The Internet Archive got hacked in October. I didn’t follow the news that closely but maybe there are still issues…

I really don’t know what to recommend to other people. I use opennic.org for DNS. And I don’t use any tunnels, I just do port forwarding on my router. I have an internet connection that allows that.
