What? I have opnSense how would I filter spam with it?

Zfs for some reasons is always loved by the self hosting experts.

Personally I don’t like it because it’s over complicated and not officially part of the Linux kernel.

20y of self hosting for me means Linux software raid (raid1 then moved to raid5) and mostly ext4, recently (=last 2 years) upgraded to btrfs on my data raid. Btrfs at least is integrated in the Linux kernel and while has some drawbacks (don’t do raid with btrfs, put btrfs on MD raid instead) its been super rock solid.

I would have kept ext4, but thought why not try btrfs, and it’s been so smooth that I had no reasons to go back.

I only wash my clothes if pee or poop myself…

I think I washed my clothes last time last decade? That was a waste! But you know, better safe than sorry!

Nope. Its much safer to crash in a today car. 70’s would break as well and break you more. Both would be totaled anyway in such a case.

Today’s cars are designed to crumple and protect you, older cars transmit more damage to your body.

In that case, you should definitely open the shop.

I think, tough, that your prices will be higher than normal retail, due to volumes and supply chain.

Also, the local “Wall-Mart” (or whatever corporation) would need to sell a very small loss for a few months to kill you, while subsidizing their loss with other shops in other locations…

You can’t win. But you can try and people will undoubtedly appreciate that

You mean including also staff wages? Would that also cover a wage for the owner? Or, in other words, a tiny bit of profit so the owner can live out of it?

At this point, try to put a cap on greed.

My blonde hair kept always confusing small boys. Are your hair yellow or white?

So, there is that, blonde is not a color, it’s a whole spectrum of colors from white, yellow and brown.

We don’t need fake ai written posts against AI.

And frankly the only believable thing is the AI hallucinating.

Even the point that auth was missing is not believable.

The 80% is useless, batteries are not built to be charged continuously. I suggest you use a smart plug that you turn on and off periodically

If you get the USB working, beware of bulging battery: its not a IF but a WHEN if you keep it plugged 24/7.

Also,mostly depend on postmarket is kernel drivers what will actually work over USB.

Italy!

Oh, wait…

I am using wiki. Is for a different project and I can’t say I really prefer it over dokuwiki. They both have good points. I don’t like the php dependency of dokuwiki but wikijs feels a bit overcomplex.

Thanks you, it means a lot. Just to be clear for whomever didn’t go there: there is zero monetization, no ads, no profiling.

Dokuwiki

For me for future memory and for others who might need it

Well anyone must have the right to be defended, even rapist and child predators have rights you know…

Even the worst of the human beings is still a human being.

I have the same experience. 5he worst ones are the cheap ones from aliexress. I think some of them generate lots of interference maybe by sending energy consumption updates too often

In my experience I needed some routers, not smart plugs, to ensure a smooth mesh. Maybe my smart plugs where too cheap. Anyway, I added one router per floor and had no more devices dropping out randomly.

A dedicated router is a small dongle connected to a USB power adapter in a wall outlet. Add to the mesh, and they only provide routing for other devices, no other function.

Maybe you have better quality devices… I have lots of super cheap switches that behave weirdly without.

My home has some 100 ZigBee devices… Definitely can recommend ZigBee. Lots of cheap options, specially anything from Sonoff is good quality.

Some devices like thermo/igrometers and smart plugs you can go as cheap as aliexpress allow you…

Some devices like TRVs, smart energy switches I would spend money for a Sonoff or equivalent price point.

You need to invest in pure router devices too, specially in a biggish home. Definitely in multi-stories homes.

And go with an high quality coordinator as well.

You can check my wiki https://wiki.gardiol.org/doku.php?id=homeautomation%3Astart which I wrote mostly for myself for future reference, in the hope it could be useful to others.

Buy a Home Assistant green and self. Host HomeAssistant itself

Great software, and purchasing the green is a great way to support them. Also, the green is a beautiful and very high quality piece of hardware that’s worth the money anyway.

Buy also the thread/ZigBee dongle they provide, again, top quality for the bucks and also support the project.

You don’t.

Keep arguing with her if you please, but don’t expect to be able to change her mind. Unfortunately, logic doesn’t make sense with faith.
