I have had it favorited in my photos for years. It’s so funny

Great explaination, thanks a lot!

Can I get an ELI5? My understanding is that easements are the fees that customers (either individual or community) pay to get the equipment/infra run to their property for service.
Are you saying that customers wouldn’t have paid those easements if it was the normal telecom company doing it, as opposed to Google? If so, what are the “damages” in this case? I’m not understanding for what you could sue.

I run mine in a VM but have USB passthrough for the Zwave and zigbee sticks. I didn’t know there were POE coordinators. Do you have any you recommend? I use both zwave and zigbee

This is a stellar idea. I l bike to work year round, and live in a cold climate. I might jive this a shot. Just gotta figure out where to find a mesh shirt

How did you “retire in your 20s”? How do you support yourself? Family money?

I was about to say that I would fully expect that any government entity should run their own instance of various federated services. And all departments/whatever should be on said instance. This would go for chrt platforms as well, such as matrix

This was my first thought

I’ve been in the process of migrating everything over do Nix. Love it so much.
What hole does Ansible fill for you? I haven’t looked into it in the past really, so just curious. I have a single Paoxmox node so don’t really need horizontal scaling orchestration.

At that point, would you need to sell those assets? If the issue is your net worth, and your assets aren’t worth much, then your net worth is low.

If you want to host your own email server, then do that. As someone earlier in the thread said, email was the first federated messaging system. That was the entire point of SMTP. Anyone could host one and trust it would work.
I don’t know if it’s what you’re looking for, as it’s not ActivityPub based, but Postmoogle is a Matrix bridge email server, where you can send emails to it and they’ll be converted to Matrix messages. There might be a similar thing for ActivityPub?
- Comment on Your Kindle Can Finally Be Jailbroken Again. [22:00] 4 months ago:
I thought I remember Amazon also listed that, but it’s moot at this point.
Another good option that lists DRM plainly is ebooks.com
They even have a search filter for only DRM free

Ok, good to know. Next time I buy an eBook I’ll look at it
- Comment on Your Kindle Can Finally Be Jailbroken Again. [22:00] 4 months ago:
That’s good to hear. The last (and only) book I bought on Kobos store I had to use Adobe Digital Editions I think, which was annoying since they don’t provide that for Linux.
- Comment on Your Kindle Can Finally Be Jailbroken Again. [22:00] 4 months ago:
Do you have an easy way to strip the DRM from the Kobo ebooks? If not, then is it much different thank Amazon? I also have a kobo but don’t buy from their store. I mainly buy books on ebooks.com if they are DRM free. And maybe acquire others that aren’t DRM free.
- Comment on Head of the Signal app threatens to withdraw from Europe 5 months ago:
Not officially I don’t think. And even if you did, you’d need a customized app to point to said server, and then you wouldn’t be interoperable with the regular signal network
- Comment on Head of the Signal app threatens to withdraw from Europe 5 months ago:
I think they’re suggesting doing it on top of SMS/MMS instead of a different transport protocol, like Signal does, which is IP based

This is exactly my thought. I eat at my desk, so I don’t bother counting the 5 mins.
- Comment on Intel says Arc GPUs will live on after Nvidia deal 5 months ago:
Pretty sure they’re actually the most compatible. I read somewhere that Intel QSV is the best for transcoding, followed by nvidia. And Arc uses QSV I think.
Don’t have a source, so take with a grain of salt.
I’m thinking about throwing an Arc B580 in the Minisforum MS-01 I just got and pass it do my JF VM.

Ironically my dad sneezes pretty quietly, like a mouse. Yet I have the sonic boom of a sneeze. One time in uni I sneezed during a class, the professor stopped his lecture and said “are you ok?!?!”

- Comment on Tabletop Convection Oven* 10 months ago:
Technology connections did a good Video on the topic, and a comparison between them and normal ovens.
Personally I use mine (which is a toaster oven / air fryer combo) because it’s faster and easier to clean. So if I’m making something that fits in it, that’s my choice

- Comment on Satire is dead 👌 11 months ago:
I think it’s gonna end up being bad. Mainly because most people are gonna hear on Fox News that this was due to some flaw in Signal, and just take that at face value. A lot of people are not gonna even read an article about why or what even happened.
- Comment on Satire is dead 👌 11 months ago:
Just wanna be clear that this didn’t happen because of some technical flaw/vulnerability in Signal. This was completely Human Error
