It isn't just for cost savings, but it is also for privacy, convenience, and sanity. For example: Do I really trust Google/Apple with all of my photos? Do I really trust lastpass/onepass/... with all my passwords? Do I r

For each service I run, I have a volume for the persistent storage. For example: Nextcloud has a maria (mysql) db and a server. In my /opt/nextcloud I have a script for creating/updating the docker images. Persistent data liv

The primary other I looked at was an Intel NUC. I also use several raspberry pi for some smaller iot things, but I find it is nice to have one decently powerful server to run a whole bunch of services on. It also has two external 8Tb drives

I have a fitlet2( https://fit-iot.com/web/products/fitlet2/ ) that I use for hosting various services. It is fanless, 16G of RAM and 500G SSD. This is my NAS, and I am currently running: - Jellyfin - Media Serv

This is what helps me the most. I like to break down any large/daunting tasks into a bunch of small milestones. It makes it much easier to know where to start. You also feel like you have completed something and you have a defined plac

This is a big issue. In my city some of the neighborhoods were originally steel "company towns". They literally have one entrance/exit into them and it is crossed by a primary railroad track. The trains have gotten so long, t

It is time for the government to step in and do more than force a contract agreement. They need to threaten the Railroad companies and side with America workers. Some suggestions: - Take back the railroads that the public built and maintain

I just add any creators I like to my RSS feed. Then I get nice chronological ordering and updates when they post new videos. No recommendations I don't care about, just the content I want to see.

Arrival time estimates are really difficult. I much prefer being able to see where the vehicle is on a map and make my own decisions, based upon my own experiences. However, I played around with one provider (Availtec's) estimations fo

I love these types of projects. Being able to automate or make a daily chore easier is so liberating. As a public transit user, I too have written a dashboard for my transit system on top of the smashing dashboard. It runs on a raspberry pi

This isn't completely true. The App Store will only let you download previous versions of software you have already installed. If you try to download a new App and the latest version does not support your version of iOS, the App Store

I've always thought it'd be neat to use something like this in addition to the broadway[1] backend for GTK+ to stream X11 GUI apps directly and independently for each user. [1] https://docs.gtk.org/gtk4/broadw

Every single American should be able to get a free, permanent email account through our Postal Service! We shouldn't have to rely on Gmail for what may be the only way to get information/apply for on basic government services!

I remember after market versions of this in the 90s. To start the car, you had to blow. No communication and nothing more complicated than it. It seems crazy to me that we still haven't required this. We also should have lowered the le

Another vote for bandcamp. If you are into more indie bands, try to find their label on bandcamp and subscribe to it. Many of these indie labels specialize in a very specific genre of music, and you'll often find great stuff from your

I stopped using streaming services as I tend not to listen to music in the way they want. I always listen to full albums in order and tend to listen to albums on repeat. I tend to focus on my music, and want zero interruptions, so an offlin

Still no ability to have separate accounts on an ipad... I sort of understand that a phone is a single user OS, but the ipad most certainly should be a multi user OS.

I set it up manually for my family members. My biggest issue is that I have wireguard automatically enable itself when not on my home network. But there are some other networks that need to be excluded, like most airline wifis, as they don&

I do the same. I run bitwarden_rs as a docker container on a raspberry pi on my home network. Then use wireguard so I am always connected to my home network. This works great for my family. Simple set up, and I've done 0 maintenance on

Sure, that is a lot for hosting a single static site. But, that $10 essentially gives you unlimited sites, unlimited email hosting, SSL cert management, lots of storage, unlimited network, and much more…

Agree. I bring my phone oversees, but don't have an international plan, so I usually purchase a local SIM card and swap it out. But all my mfa fails then, because it is trying to text my US number!

I feel like the linear history and rebasing always causes problems. I too like linear history, and feel like the problem is with how git displays its history. Before moving to git, we used bazaar (bzr). Merges ALWAYS come in with a merge co

I also have a very old pi hooked up to my other TV that is non-networked, and just plays random futurama (Original run only) episodes. No need to decide what to watch, my TV only plays futurama :)
