That is REALLY nice.
Let’s have that, but a full-blown pocket Linux machine with a decent resolution and a cell-modem and let’s gooo!
The term “internet appliance” is pretty awful though lol.

I too laughed at “enthusiast mulls.”
That being said, I too, am an enthusiast who’d love to see these handheld-like PCs come back.

I appreciate your gratitude and I really do hope it does some good for others… Especially because I really hate needles but I have it done anyway for this reason. Lol 😬

Wait I see EMT piping for that printer frame… Did you convert an Anet A8 to an “EMT-8” like I did!? :D
Just seemed like a neat coincidence!
The stock A8 was such a scary fire hazard lol.

OMV has such a nice Docker management interface too. I really feel spoiled with it.
I was planning on all my services running in ProxMox or something, but my OMV VM handles all of them except PiHole basically lol. OMV is snazzy. :D

Oh yes the red rotary phone…I imagine if it’s ringing, something has gone terribly wrong.

I’m increasingly seeing neighborhoods where there’s only a sidewalk on one side of the street…and then it terminates for no reason…and then it starts again…
It’s so bizarre.

Fuck a fucking lawn.
Is that kinda like a putting green but for…?

I’m so glad it was helpful! You’re very welcome! I try to spread the word since NextCloud’s default photo app…scares people away frankly lol.
I now use an extension to customize the menu, so Memories effectively replaces the default app from a user point of view.
Using Memories in Nextcloud AiO simplifies things a bit, but I seriously consider it NextCloud’s “killer app.” It’s got EXIF editing, albums, user sharing, folder organizing, facial (and object!) recognition done locally, geo tagging map view…all local. The face recognizing stuff isn’t perfect, but it’s definitely good enough for the most part.
It’s also very easy to send to people outside NextCloud, but I run it behind TailScale so it’s not exposed to the open net at all. Copying and sending images through something like Signal also works fine. :)
It even has a neat Android app that sends my pictures to my server whenever I plug my phone in. (And moves them to my SD card in case something goes awry…but I learned I need to manage the cleanup of that part better lol)
Given all the other neat things NextCloud does, I like how it keeps photo managing in one place too.

Gonna also throw in: Nextcloud Memories.
It makes the photo organizing part of NextCloud AMAZING. I’m so happy I got to dump Google Photos for good.

True! It was then technically named after a meme…which the coin named itself after, as it was supposed to be a “meme coin”.
Still stands though.
“Government agency named after meme. Such dumb. So chaos. Woooooow.” Lol

Oh my gosh that’s so much closer, you’re right. Bet you could totally make a nature-oriented specialization too. :D

Probably because in many cases we can’t afford to freakin’ move and resettle in our own country, so it becomes trivia knowledge instead of practical know lol.

Reminds me: In the roguelike game Cataclysm DDA, there’s fungus monsters. Basically once they’re on the map, the best strategy was to just run and keep running until they were out of the game’s “simulation bubble.”
They would spread fungal colonies uncontrollably, creating fungal towers, spawning more spores, and fungal versions of monsters, which would spread more spores…
You could hack away at them or burn them sure, but all of them? Unlikely. They’d rapidly take over the entire game basically lol … Dunno if that’s been nerfed now.
Spores are freaky. Really freaky…

I’m really surprised nobody else posted this. My first thought was Goldeneye 64’s snow level soundtrack. 😮 Like I could hear it just looking at this image lol.

Guys am I autistic?
Haha might be? But I’m the same way and I’m pretty sure I’m not autistic…(ADHD though)
I think when you fill that spot between ((“knowledgable”) AND (“good-natured”)), you just like to share what you know if the poster’s sarcasm isn’t painfully apparent.
Never hurts to be kindly helpful. It reminds me of something my sister told me she tells her kids:
“Try to learn something new every day, and even if you don’t, teach something.” :)
