    Hetzner announced a 37% price increase for new and existing VPS customers beginning April 1

    Must have missed that news, that’ll hurt some people in this community.

      Yep. I got an email from them yesterday. My lil box is going from just under 4 USD to 5 USD per month.

    It even has RSS! Hell yeah let’s go

    • perishthethought@piefed.social ⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

      Yes but the RSS feed for non-subscribers is just the announcement of the post. I still have to go to the site to read the whole newsletter, which is fine.

  Shucks… I really wanted open drone log, to be like, an interactive dashboard of the amount of fan noise my PC’s are currently making.

  I’ve been running Bluehood the past couple weeks, on a Raspberry Pi that was otherwise collecting dust. I’m up to 2K Bluetooth devices spotted and I live on a slow, residential street. Its quite startling how easily you could stalk someone who travels around with Bluetooth on.

    Hmmm… I have a spare Pi kicking about, I might give this a go.

    Before I go looking for stuff, did you need a BT adapter to get better range, etc?

    source

    • ilillilillilillililli@lemmy.world ⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

      So, I have it running on a Pi 3 B+ which has BT 4.2 built in. You would indeed probably get even better range with a BT adapter and USB extension.
