Opencloud is a fork from Owncloud Infinite Scale just as nextcloud was a fork from the old Owncloud version.
Apparently much much simpler and more performant than nextcloud in almost every way. It also has a secure file sharing link feature.
They are also based in Germany.
I am about to spin up opencloud behind traefik and authelia hopefully this week or weekend.
They do these types of things, a lot more often than open source projects actually.
Thread Group:
I will list more that for example google and/or apple are a part of, but not the involved companies to not make a wall
Not to mention smaller groups that collaborate to discuss strategy over activies like golf or dinners.
The downside is that very very often, the collaboration involves how best to fuck over consumers and the general public for more profit margin.
correct, the real mesh internet replacement is HaLow, that can get a whopping 4Mbps or something.
And this is why I try to recommend to every single person starting their smart home to plan it so that if everything dies, their internet, their router, power gets restarted, and their HomeAssistant gets corrupted, and you die, at the same time, that everything will work exactly as expected, because with MANY smart home systems they will just stop functioning or be stuck in a bad mode until your family hires someone to fix it.
That’s why I lean hard towards KNX
There is a small important distinction.
It is because there is no proprietary e2e encryption by default exclusively while communicating with others on tuta.
E2e encryption for 99.99999% of emails is via passworded pgp that everyone else has and uses or not encrypted at all. I have tuta for years and have yet to send or recieve a single encrypted mail that is the reason that they can’t have a 3rd party app outside of tuta’s own advertisements I get served.
It is vendor lock in. Pure, plain, and simple.
Wouldn’t be as much of a problem if their client wasn’t so bad. No auto moving messages as far as I can tell, absolutely horrid search functionality where I can type the sender email word for word and it will find 0 results, and just having almost no productivity or inbox managing features in general
This is the best comment of the thread.
So many people are nitpicking his post or criticizing the platform that he shares it on (let’s me honest, linkedIN has a much wider impact than the fediverse if something “goes corporate viral”). People deserve to be compensated for their work.
We shouldn’t be mad at the devs trying to make a living, even those who have different views about what open source is. We should be banding together against the companies who’s entire business model is based on theft and abuse. New anti-AI licenses specifically, techniques to poison AI data baked into every repo, class action lawsuits against companies, etc…
Once Universal Basic Income gets implemented and you don’t need to be paid directly for your work to survive, then we bicker incessantly about the finer points of the real definition of open source.
He is pretty much openly admitting he has right wing views and it is influencing his social media and project policy.
“Punch Nazis” is literally the only use of the phrase “punch [group]” in modern culture. Redacting specifically Nazi from the statement to make it seem like it is a general statement used, which suggests that is is note broad violent rhetoric, is a very often used dogwhistle by Nazis (and is being used daily by the extreme right wing, at this point satisfying nearly every academic hallmark of fascism, american government).
It is also relevant to note that during the project startup, someone simply suggested a 10 minute search and replace change to use more neutral language and he responded “your personal politics have no place here” even though that is not necessarily political.
Again, the only people that get that offended and snappy with something as benign as using a single different pronoun are the people who support taking basic rights away from human beings. I have never met another type person who cares at all.
The real question is, if a terrible person creates something (potentially) good and let’s their own politics create arguments and stir up drama, but just use the guise of “oh it’s because I want to be apolitical”, is it worth giving money and support to that person. How can you trust someone to always make a “free as in freedom browser” when they literally support (hypothetically) authoritarianism, mass surveillance, and taking rights away in real life? That is the antithesis of the project’s mission.
Also, life is inherently political. There is a group of people literally wanting to kidnap, torture, enslave, kill, and/or remove any rights from another large group of people. Ignoring those problems and welcoming those people with open arms gives them the chance to spread those hateful and violent views, as evidenced by their rapid growth by creating safe spaces for them on the internet.
It is a sad reality, but throughout much of human history, there has been a large groups of people don’t have the luxury to “avoid talking about politics” and “making things political” because they were literally getting enslaved and/or killed by it. And that is happening today still, visibly and publically.
Or Hikvision for very similar cameras at an actually affordable price (but you HAVE to block then from the internet and/or put them on an isolated VLAN because they send everything back home).
Reolink also makes gold budget cameras, especially their doorbell camera.
Doesn’t PieLauncher already do this?
endurain might be able tot be combines with Fitotrack or Opentrack tot get an steava-like experience?

A sort of diablo-style game where you are the bad guy vampire. Very fun, but the damn server doesn’t pause time when it is empty, so I can only spin it up when I plan to play, not have it on all the time like valheim if my friends want to jump in without me and play
Isn’t fine name in the comment in the first line default behavior for multiple IDE/boilerplate generations?
It’s a bit difficult. I don’t have the money for an entire 2nd server on my network and $500 in HDDs just for a backup solution as part of 3/2/1.
I have 3TB of fault-tolerant-ish data in a ZFS mirror then 12TB in a third, single drive full of stuff that I don’t care a ton if I lost (media and stuff mostly)
Maybe I could back up the more needed data to Hetzner or something for cheaper, but it still adds up.
I am actually debating getting a serial adapter for it. At my work we have an old Norma 3 phase power meter that is an unkillable beast with a very good update rate, and it only has GPIB but as we modernize, it could definitely be used to automate testing.
It was worth, in today’s money, like 100k€ or something crazy.
Yep, openvpn with factory firmware. It even had a (limited) choice DDNS services for self hosting, on a cheap consumer router. I could never figure out if NAT hairpinning worked though.
Almost all routers have an “advanced” section where you get a lot if these nice options.
I have only bought a ubiquiti device in the last few years though, so I guess it is possible that routers have been enshittified like a lot of tech products with features locked behind a paywall.
Sure, but you can’t access your home network anyway if your router is turned off…
I have yet to encounter a router made in the last decade that couldn’t. Asus routers, even my 15 year old tplink archer A7 could, ubiquiti always can, openwrt, pretty sure at work we did testing with a dlink router and it also had that option.
Pretty much if you don’t use a Linksys 100Mbps router from 2005, you can at least do openvpn if not wireguard.
You can even use an ESP32 or similar since it just has to perform 1 tiny function.
Getting an WT32-ETH01 knockoff dev board for 15€ or PoE for 25€ and uses <300mW with the wireless modem off. You could even just use a WiFi module for 8€ if you don’t want something wired.

There is already an wakeonlan library to generate a packet very easily.
You can even do it in pseudocode with ESPHome if you have HomeAssistant
Then VPN in, send a signal to the esp using one of various methods to tell it to send the packet.
And for any of the people saying “he changed”.
One of his most recent “philanthropic” ventures was to partner with Nestle (good start) to “modernize and increase yields” of the dairy industries in impoverished countries.
The two organizations then sold modern (likely non-servicable) equipment and entrenched them in corporate supply chain systems geared towards export and making it much harder to trade locally (not sure how that part worked, but was in what I read).
For a grand total of… 1% increased dairy yields.
Then 3-4 years later they pulled out, leaving heavily indebted farmers without the corporate supply chains and delivery systems they were forced to switch to, and making it very difficult to switch back to the old ways of working, so they can’t sell nearly as much locally.
Who do you think will buy up those farms when the farmers go bankrupt and have to sell ar rock bottom prices.
Similar goal, different function.
There aren’t install scripts like lutris, which makes it harder, once in a while, to install certain games that might need a modification.
What makes it special is that it puts each program in a “container” (hence the name) that is sandboxed from your system. E.g. if you were trying to run a program infected with malware, it would have a very hard time trying to infect the rest of your system, where with lutris and Heroic, that separation doesn’t exist so it would have full access.
It is less targeted at games and more at general programs.
That is about it. The interface is much worse than lutris or heroic, but it is still a useful program.
I have yet to use a consumer ADF scanner on a printer that didn’t feed the paper at an angle until they are crushed and folded, doesn’t matter if the guides are perfectly set for A4 either. It has never worked for me.
