For the immediate future, Europeans are personally and politically invested in digital sovereignty. The best way to get ahead quickly is to invest in open source projects. For the time being, interests seem to be aligned in favor of FOSS.
Of course, you are right. It can’t last forever.
Europe is increasingly funding projects through NGOs and government foundations. If FOSS software is a public good, then we should devote public funds to it.
Some projects offer paid hosting for those who can’t or don’t wasn’t to self-host. Some (particularly mobile apps) push a paid version to stores to subsidize those using FOSS sources to download.
just ask chatgpt to check in the couch cushions
I’ve been using Tenacity for a while now. Audacity has become problematic. But honestly, I don’t do too much audio editing. Just some clipping and noise removal.
I use navidrome. You could set it up with individual accounts and use any Subsonic compatible player. I’m not sure what you mean by specific time periods, so I’m not sure about that.
It has a very serviceable web app, and lots of front end clients. I like Tempus on Android, and Strawberry on PC.
I’ve found that navidrome is just more stable and usable than other server apps. Yes, you could do it through Home Assistant or Jellyfin or NextCloud, but those apps are not purpose-built for music. Just my 2 cents.
I’ve heard it said that a master is just someone who has made every possible mistake.
Delightful, truly. Although I think it may be triggering some past trauma lol
Outrageous! 2319 is an absurd product number for this!
Trucks are demonstrably more dangerous than other vehicles on the road.
My unpopular opinion is that truck drivers should pay a higher penalty when they’re involved in accidents. Every moving violation in a truck gets bumped up, one degree, from civil to misdemeanor, from misdemeanor to felony. By driving a pickup truck you are choosing to endanger other drivers on the road.
Following because I am really a beginner myself. That said, I have been self-hosting a dozen or so services for about 2 years now. It is very intimidating to begin.
A docker container is basically a sort of virtual machine stripped down to what is precisely essential for a given container. That means that apps running in docker are repeatable and will run identically on any hardware and software.
When it comes to networking, you can choose to have services exposed to the internet or not. If they are not exposed, you can only access them over a local network. That might be fine for a nightly backup or HomeAssistant that’s only operated locally. It’s a good place to start.
You can also use a certain type of VPN to create a virtual local network. That allows you to access your home server from any connected device. That’s what I do, using Tailscale. It is fine if you are only connecting to the server from a limited number of devices, since each one will need to be logged in to the same network.
I have a boox, and it’s great! I wouldn’t mind having a little one like this that you can basically toss along with you anywhere. Always a few minutes to read a book instead of scrolling.
lol thanks!
Sometimes you want a larger screen for media or multitasking.
Or in the case of the flip-phone form factor, you want a phone that you can put away or fit in a smaller pocket/purse.
It is recording (v), but it’s not producing a recording (n). That will probably turn out to be an important legal distinction.
There will be a lot more legal complications with the summaries because people will have an expectation of reliability. It’s pretty unlikely that they will be consistently reliable enough, or consistently avoid privacy traps, like HIPAA.
Regardless, it’s creepy.
True, but they’re not all creating a stenographic record of everything said in their vicinity. As far as we know
Well done. I’m still trying to make it through Don Quixote, so I get it. I was expecting a quick, fun read, but it is really more like trying to binge a soap opera. sure, it has very episodic chapters, but also a through-line and recurring characters that disappear and come back later, and it just keeps going.
Don’t tell me how it ends, but just tell me if it’s worth it… does it eventually build to something satisfying?
I really enjoy an e-ink display, but I’ve never owned a Kindle. Just doesn’t make sense to me.
In any case, there is a good chance you can unlock/jailbreak an older kindle and make it usable again (arguably for the first time).
Who on their marketing team decided that books and burning go together?
Probably embrace, extend, extinguish.
