Yeah I gave in and got a scope for soldering.

~10" onboard screen and HDMI output in case I need to move up to a monitor/tv 🤣

woah. guess I should have been checking in more often..

at this scale, I'm assuming people are self hosting via a docker/container?

Andor and Mr. Robot are worth watching, rest I won't speak to.

Just found out about tmobile's 5G internet backup tier, 20$/mo, includes hotspot.

I'm currently using GoogleFi for failover WAN but it's in an old 4G hotspot so will probably move over to this eventually.

I've only seen it utilized (~80%) by Blizzard and Apple so far.

Getting the 15.5 macOS update at 194MB/s was cool I guess.

Having World of Warcraft 'playable' within minutes is more likely problematic.

yeah, just had a 40ft something tree (bad at trees) blow over and completely obliterate my daughter's garden she's been growing from seeds since February >_<

Missed neighbor's shed by 2ft and ours by 4ft, no one hurt but rough when she (3) asks to check on her cucumber and sunflower..

That is odd. I can think of maybe 1-2 times of 20+ outages where someone hit a pole/infrastructure that took down power + the ISP backhaul

I noticed AT&T Fiber marketing advertising the inclusion of 5G failover which is a fantastic benefit to customers; I use a GoogleFi tablet SIM for failover

Typically for us power loss doesn't equal hardline internet loss, just need to keep the modem/gateway/APs up via UPS or one of these recently popular large capacity power banks (ecoflow, jackery, etc)

Keeping a few things up for 60-90m is much cheaper w/ standard <=150USD UPS; 6hrs+ gets up near 1k

hah! better give me a few more years if that's what they're after :p

oof

As someone with a 3yr old that hasn't gone to movie in.. (checks notes) 3yrs, it was very considerate of Marvel to make shit best watched on a phone while cleaning dishes...

this looks like half of the homeassistant or automation subreddits lol

any UI/UX screenshot is sure to contain a gem like this :p

so brutal, but so true 😂

basic FRS/MURS education isn't a bad idea either, since it involves no licensing gives you options with removable antennae.

GRMS is even better (up to 50w) but it's a ~35$ 10yr family license that some don't want to pay for.

For GRMS, best to use a P.O. Box for the registration, public database.

Getting a bit into LiPo and LiFePO4 battery packs isn't a bad idea to add to the list. More and more dependence on packs where one or two cells go bad.

I've recently gone through finding a good spot welder that I plan to run off a SLA 12v rather than complex PSU/Capacitor arrays.

👍 That makes sense

I wish the ACLU website was more clear and mentioned/linked to property search somewhere on that page

this is the one I remember seeing ^

Wasn't the border patrol map going around showing 'within 100 miles' of any border, including coasts? It wasn't being dismissed the way I would expect it to be if false...

I remember being surprised by it reaching almost halfway into Ohio

I have missed (and appreciated) the conversations/perspectively.

So much is just noise, especially now..

Why would they?
January 19, 2025 at 10:45 AM
nice! I just purged like 10-15 podcast subscriptions a few weeks ago and left Phileas Club, just in case :p

Yeah, only a few things I prefer about Mastodon and this one of them.

Setting your instance to no character limit is great when the content isn't jokes and memes, and especially when it involves links.

Showing a few hundred chars + 'see more' is the correctly balanced UX.

This right here. Option on the right -- If you're at the top or elsewhere, current icon; soon as you start scrolling the icon changes to ^

I've been consistently unhappy with their update/patch documentation & rollouts.

I will likely go the route of a 4U case and old components next time around, waiting for several weeks for urgent CVEs to be addressed is not really acceptable.

GUI is also pretty limited, too often I have to ssh in.

wow, basically inverse if I were to rank those four...
