- Comment on Climate tech startup aims to store carbon in oceans and reshape the energy sector 1 week ago:
Well, the electrode that allows direct electrolysis of sea water to create hydrogen without producing corrosive chlorine gas sounds pretty cool.
I am not sure why the media is focussing so much on the CO2 capture aspect of it, which honestly sounds more like a side effect of them trying to deal with the alkaline waste stream.
This will never scale to to point that the carbon capture part will make a big impact, but producing green hydrogen with low environmental impact sounds pretty ok to me.
- Comment on ‘If 1.5m Germans have them there must be something in it’: how balcony solar is taking off 1 week ago:
They have an inverter that increases the voltage to 230V and then you can plug it into a regular outlet. The cables don’t care in which direction the electricity flows. It only becomes an issue at the power meter, but newer ones prevent backflow and usually these small PV systems don’t produce enough to not be consumed by always on stuff like refrigerators anyways.

- Comment on Indonesia ThorCon 3.5 GW fission power project 2 weeks ago:
Sea side nuclear power seems like a bad idea in an tsunami prone country like that.

Thermo-acustic heat pumps seem more promising and are apparently close to market availability, see: www.blueheartenergy.com

Yes.
- Comment on Building A Generator That Runs Off Hose Power 4 weeks ago:
To utilize power that is otherwise wasted? The water can still be used in the garden etc. Also if there is a power-cut the water often keeps running, so you could use this to charge a small battery or a phone.

- Comment on Starlink with self hosted? 4 weeks ago:
Starlink uses CGNAT, so that is not possible since the public IP is shared between multiple subscribers.

- Comment on Sharing my (real) first selfhosted project: OVH IP updater 1 month ago:
It does solve my problem in the sense that right now I need to configure each subdomain individually both in the OVH web-ui and then a second time on my firewall for the dyndns update. With a few dozen subdomains that is both annoying and easy to mess up accidentally.
If I can manage everything from env parameters in a single location that saves me a lot of hassle.
- Comment on Sharing my (real) first selfhosted project: OVH IP updater 1 month ago:
Cool. I am currently using the OVH dyndns option and it is a bit annoying that you have to update each sub-domain individually and can’t just tell OVH to update all subdomains to the same new IP via a wildcard.
Is that something your script could do?
Also it seems like the OVH dyndns API currently only does either IPv4 or IPv6 but not both the same time.
- Comment on Has anyone successfully self-hosted Firefox Sync? 1 month ago:
An the Syncserver still runs on Python2 with multiple kniwn vulnerabilities.
There is a new Syncserver written in Rust, but it seems in continous half finished state or so.
- Comment on What are some self hosted services that you think are essential? 1 month ago:
Some WebDAV server, can be Nextcloud but actually something more lightweight is better.
Also a XMPP server is very nice to have. Even if you don’t have many contacts on it (yet), it works very well has a notification service and can even be extended to act as a Unified Push distributor.
- Comment on How to convince my uni / dept. to switch to Mastodon? 1 month ago:
Unless they have an active IT department that is already hosting various websites for them, it is probably better to show them some hosted offer like this: masto.host
As for your questions:
- Medium difficulty as far as self-hosting goes. Mastodon is a Ruby on Rails app.
- Really depends on the number of users etc.
- See no. 2. a few hundreds $ or so.
- As others have mentioned, let them make an account on an existing server first, it can be migrated to your own server later.
- Comment on Migrating from Nextcloud AIO to Owncloud Infinite Scale: Good Idea? 1 month ago:
Not really what you are asking for, but I found the combination of KaraDAV and Filestash to be a great alternative to Nextcloud, and much more stable for basic use.
As for Owncloud… I am skeptical of the company behind them ever since they split off into them and Nextcloud. Probably better to avoid, regardless of what you think of Nextcloud.
- Comment on I'm moving to another city soon. What are some good apps that could help? Inventory, logistics, etc 1 month ago:
If you need it you will find it, and if you don’t, maybe it is unncessary clutter in your life that would be better to get rid off in a yard sale asap?
- Comment on Defederation issues between Lemm.ee and Lemmy.ml 1 month ago:
Is the source-code for this website available somewhere? Might be pretty nice to have for other instances as well.
- Comment on My Thoughts on GoToSocial - James Ashford 1 month ago:
It’s a bit confusing at first that it comes with a read only web-interface, but once you got a Mastodon app or an frontend like Phanpy set up with it, it works quite well.

- Comment on Breezeway Greenhouse Help? 1 month ago:
Should be fairly easy with some transparent corrugated roof sheets. Make sure it is closed all around to prevent high winds from lifting it off, but also have sufficient hatches for ventilation in the summer.

This is kinda off-topic for this community. Maybe rather post it in our /c/outdoor community?

- Comment on New York City's new solar-powered school buses will support the grid too 1 month ago:
Na, these ones are super strong and probably cost more than a solar panel installation would have, especially if you factor in the electricity it produces over time. It’s just silly and probably decided for by some boomer who drives an SUV.
