… Was it kbal? I’m pretty sure I’m right.

Hah. They will just make more things cloud based, unfortunately

I went to buy used drives for an offsite backup and the prices were double what I paid a year ago, so no, now is not the time, unfortunately.

The muse of programming: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rubber_duck_debugging (sometimes just talking things out inspires)

This is my favorite from my detection

It’s an M3 nut on a 3D print.

Element call worked using element web, tested just now. Called a phone using element x

Video and voice chat with matrix works well once it’s set up. I… Struggled a bit setting it up, and I don’t think I’m the exception.

Haven’t tried screen sharing yet.

That’s a good point. I was just going to say that’s how useful their personal trainer was

When has that ever stopped us from making new systems and standards?

How does this interact with gpdr? It seems at odds.

You can visit the room once, doesn’t say you can’t swap the bulb for a smart bulb and use your phone to figure it out when it enters pairing mode…

Having gone through it, a matrix server is not newbie friendly yet.

(Though I agree that’s a great idea)

Honestly? It was a pain, I used several different guides and they were all out of date in different ways. Unfortunately, it looks like external users are having connectivity problems, that I’ll try to solve next week when I have time.

My kid is 9, and it’s all Minecraft and I just installed a non federated synapse server so they can text family without having to deal with parental controls. At that age, I figure it’s more about having fun, and if they learn typing skills on the way, big win

i is my address. The bigger problem is that I should have increased i by sizeof(U32)

(This works on bare metal, mostly, not on an os)

No

i= 0;

do{ i++; } while (10 != *(U32 *) i );

?

Gotta make it hard to read as well

Oidc, and it’ll end up opening up to more family around the holidays, as authentik is also my matrix user provider (shut out of the real world because I wanted my 9 year old to be able to text and video call family). Mealie was a piece of cake compared to the whole synapse environment

Thanks! I finally linked mealie with authentik. It was a 10 minute task, if that, but this post pushed me over

I’m running https://github.com/awinterstein/habitica/ and have built the android app locally to get access. I really need to update and build it again eventually.

It’s not seamless, but it functions for the family.

Examples of the type of service I’m looking at: a media server, photos app (to replace Google Photos), game servers, recipe management, home automation… What other things do you know about that are fun/interesting/useful?

I use:

• Immich for photo hosting
• Jellyfin and navidrome for media (video and audio)
• Calibre and calibre-web for ebooks
• Minecraft server
• Mealie for recipes.
• Home assistant for automation
• Habitica for habit forming
• And I have fpp for my Christmas lights (the application is xlights, fpp is the server that runs the scripts)

All of these I like.
