Still sounds easier than getting my roborock on valetudo. I had to take the entire thing apart to get to the other side of the mobo to flash the thing. Felt like I needed 3 hands to ground one place while doing a bunch of other things just to get it to flash. My workspace was a mess of screws and tiny robot parts I only half remembered taking out.

In the end it worked and I’m very happy with it. Was sweating for a bit though. It was a $400 vacuum iirc.

Good to know, thanks.

I use Pingvin. You upload a file to it and it generates a link. Has expiration on the link.

You can allow anonymous uploads or not, give friends logins etc.

I have it locked down to just me with a login and I use it to let others download the files.

It was probably on AWS

Did you create your own docker container, or did you use the official one?

I have the official one up and running, voice and video chat work out of the box.

Looks like most of their services are also foss. Says their cloud service is powered by nextcloud, and pad is powered by Etherpad, upload by Lufi, etc. So, OP could probably just self-host most of these really easily. Hardest one would probably be email. That’s a whole 'nother beast for most. Especially since most residential IPs are blacklisted. You almoat always need to cloud-host that.

My cloud-hosting knowledge is a bit dated, bit I bet there are webhosting places that do the email bit for you, you juat pay the monthly fee to use their auto-gen instance of mailcow or whatever.

Fight it as long as I can with my current fairly new phone. I assume that update by google would require an OS update, not a google play update. I might just not update my OS until I get a new phone.

If I’m lucky I won’t need to update for a few years and an awesome linux phone will be available. If not then some de-googled android phone.

I’ve had issues like this before too. Mine was with the api password. You have to enable api access in settings->authentication->allow api access

then reset the api password (sometimes takes a few saves to stick for some reason).

I have one where I put a door/window sensor on a window and anytime that window is opened it turns off the HVAC, then when closed, turns it back on.

I tried once to setup a notification to open the windows if the weather was nice, but I’d never gotten to work quite like I wanted, and so I turned it off.

This was my first thought too.
