And build your own shelter with the results.

RPi Digital Signage is really good. Binaryemotions.com. it’s built thoughtfully for a bunch of different situations. The kiosk mode paired with some sort of start page would work.

If you have a Google account you can setup webhooks to a chat space. That’s the best way if it supports it. If you continue to have this problem with email only you could setup n8n to receive notifications via other methods and forward them to a webhook.

The Ikea stuff works fine. When it comes to smart plugs, The IKEA switches make a louder solenoid “chonk” sound when they turn on. Xiaomi plugs are quieter and the smallest I’ve seen. Means you are more likely to fit something next to it. They are a little bit more expensive but I think worth it.

Looks a little pricey but probably would work fine. I bought my first zstack based Texas for $25. Worked fine for a couple of years till I realized it had a limit on how many devices it could handle. so I upgraded it to the next model up for another $25. That’s when I found out if you change methods you have to re adopt everything. But if I kept it on the same method (zstack Texas zha) all I did was swap the dongle and everything kept rolling just with a higher limit of devices.

You could always punch a semi detailed account of your experience into https://goblin.tools/Formalizer set to “more passionate” or even “more sarcastic” and see if that grips your audience more. Then find a cafe or store that plays music, wait for a sad song to come on and let it rip.

I thought a guy at the end would walk in without a mustache and he’d be called Debian.

If you VPS it, remember to add a snapshot backup. Such as $5 vultr VPS always add the $2 snapshot backup option.

I had an XYZ back then. It worked overall but was frustrating to use. I also got “back” into it and bought a second hand creality ender 3 V2 in a tent. It works effortlessly every time and I was pleased. Can’t do tpu because bodum can’t do tpu but it is reliable. Then my friend bought a Bambu and another friend bought an anycubic and I was mind blown about how far they’ve come. Speed and reliability and colour change reliability. Crazy. I think the modern machines are worth the extra money.

And if you mean everyone as in everyone on Lemmy? Yes yes.

But… then I’d be compelled to concern myself with those who are getting bombed into the dirt for being born on the wrong side of a DMZ…

Yes random voice on the Internet please talk me out of my hard won respect for reliability.

Buy the 5yr warranty extension. Yes you can delay updates/make them manual. If I were you and weren’t ready to give up the fortinet I’d double NAT it for a while, I think you’ll find the benefit of using the complete ecosystem will convince you to give up the fortinet even if there are a few features that fortinet do better.

You can buy a firewall model that has the required controller built in requiring cloud connection or 2nd to that I’d setup a VM using the http://glennr.nl/ scripts as the controller. The scripts are reliable and capable.

I used to run 3rd party, like Sonicwall, firewalls with Unifi wifi for a few years but recent improvements to their approach has made me switch to the whole eco system now and I prefer it.

Yes the important server computer is Linux, and the others are something else.

Done. I’ll miss you.

Ahh, I think you’ll find it’s Dunder-McKruber.

Y’know the setting in the bios where you can choose boot on power restore, stay off or last state? This relies on a capacitor on the motherboard near the bios battery to store the last state. This 5 cent capacitor can die and sometimes behave like you are saying. I had a repair guy fix it cheap and that server worked normally after that.

I learned one morning that a cmos battery could become a resistor. It can fail in a way that it’s not working nor completely dead but passes just enough current to make a server motherboard that otherwise might A: Work, B: detect it’s dead/missing and boot anyway with defaults to instead C: just freeze and not do anything. That was a fun full day of time wasted.

You can connect a headscale derp server to a tailscale environment.

Neat!
