Hmm that aquarium chiller solution is interesting to me. I'd like to wire it up to home assistant, so I could automate it. Wonder if there are any that I could control with an IR blaster?

Would miss out on some of the fun data you get from the complete solution though.

I also saw there was some firmware available for the complete solution, for local control. But unsure if I can realistically justify that large of a purchase while relying on a project that may lose support.

I'm aware of the bed jet, but it doesn't seem as useful as it just pushes air, so if your room is already hot you are out of luck.

I used to get a lot of merge conflicts working with obsidian and syncthing, as I'd edit on my phone and my computer(s).

Honestly started considering just spinning up a git repo, but knowing me I'd forget to commit lol

Lol, my girlfriend just had all of her sideloaded books removed from her kindle today. She just opened her kindle and they were gone

Huh this is news to me. Wonder why dd has been the defacto standard in guides everywhere for the past 15-20+ years

Notably, this device-linking concept of operations has proven to be a low-signature form of initial access due to the lack of centralized, technology-driven detections and defenses that can be used to monitor for account compromise via newly linked devices; when successful, there is a high risk that a compromise can go unnoticed for extended periods of time.

Well, hopefully that gets fixed soon.

Even if recaptcha is solvable by bots, what you're effectively doing is making it more expensive to run these bots at scale, which is a deterrent and necessary.

Now there's definitely ways to do it without tracking user data, but I doubt they'll give up that control without being forced

Only time I've ever used starlink was as a fallback while I was working remote out of Mexico for a few months and it was ridiculously slow compared to telmex. Was nice having it as a backup though incase the telmex went down. My travel router failed over before zoom calls would disconnect 🤠

Basically looking for an open source alternative to google my maps, to plan out trips or share recommendations with friends.

I've tried using uMap (OSM) for mexico city, but it has a lot of missing or outdated data.

 

Hi, all!

Aurora has mainly been rendered useless to me, since they started banning/ratelimiting a lot of the accounts in use on that platform.

I mainly stick to FOSS apps, but for instances where that isnt feasible, it was nice to be able to fall back on aurora store.

Any suggestions?
