Light with caraway seeds
Un Dorian Gray sin pasado, ni patria ni bandera.
I’m just a guy in the #pnw who likes going on adventures, and playing games with friends.
Three things I love: the Oxford Comma, irony, and missed opportunities.

Light with caraway seeds
Yeah, ever since switching to Bluefin, it’s been a dream. I don’t have to fight the laptop or myself when I do something stupid.
What’s yours look like?
This is what I’ve been trying to figure out, so I’m glad you did it. I have a Synology too and I’ve outgrown it, but building my own server scratch is daunting so I just wanted to hook a DAS up to a mini PC and call it good. But there were a lot of people online saying it was a bad idea.
If meshtastic is what you were referring to, check out meshcore. Same hardware, different firmware. Meshtastic has a problem the more nodes you add, so the more people using it, the worse it becomes.
Meshcore is newer, and doesn’t have as many features per se, but it’s much more reliable. Right now, the entire Seattle metro area into Vancouver, BC is on it and it’s running extremely well.

Same! I was one of the early migrants just before the mass migration, having seen the writing on the wall and having already joined Mastodon. It was a great time initially, a bit of “you’re new? okay, I’ve figured a few things out, try this”. We caught Ernest by surprise because he was only making a proof of concept to offer an alternative to Lemmy. And then we showed up in droves. But he did his best, and while it was bumpy, it was still an overall great experience, much like the early days of Reddit, pre-Digg.
I still like the kbin-style instances over Lemmy, but yeah, it’s not quite the same any more. That said, still preferable to Reddit these days.
Thank you, Ernest. Hope you’re recovering wherever you are.
Second for Bazzite. Have it on my steamdeck.
I did the notification thing. If the outdoor temperature is lower than my indoor temperature and above 17° and the humidity is under 60% and the windows are closed, it sends me a notification to open them.
Same if the outdoor temps get above 24° and the windows are still open, it reminds me to close them.
I love the integrations with immich and owntracks, as well as having an OIDC login. What kind of resources does this need for a server?
Damn, someone beat me to it!
Yeah, that’s the part I’m having trouble with. Can’t decide on something serious, easy to communicate and that I like. Definitely a me problem.
I have a domain and an email address through it, but my problem is I can’t find a domain name I like enough to both keep and give out to others as a long term contact point. The one I have right now is silly, and not easy to communicate over the phone.
It’s a me problem, but if I ever figure out something I’m will to keep and is available, that’s the goal.
I’ll probably go with one of the other roms on an older phone or possibly one of the Linux phones. It won’t be exactly what I want, but it’ll be better than their walled garden bullshit. That’s precisely why I left Apple way back when.
Do it! It’s not that bad. Everyone’s got different needs, but I switched to fastmail and have been enjoying it.
I’m using its non-gaming sister, Bluefin, and same. While I’m pretty decent at the CLI and have laboriously figured out how to make things work in the past, that’s not where I want to put my energy. I like that it just works and I’m not going to mess anything up on the system level. Containerization and rollbacks are fine by me if I don’t have to figure out how to un-bork something.
🤷🏼♂️ When I had CL I could turn it on by enabling 6rd and it worked as expected. When I moved across town and got QF, their instructions didn’t account for it and following the same online instructions for CL don’t work. Others online seem to not have had any luck either, but some people’s comments make it sound like it’s the modem.
Mine is Quantum Fiber, a sister of CenturyLink. CL has it, apparently QF doesn’t. Or at least not natively, rather 6rd. And then possibly not on the modem they installed? At any rate, I haven’t been able to find anything online.
Seconded on do it. It’s a lot better than it was even a few years ago.
Same story but a little further along. Maxed out atomoxitine, and now on 30mg of Vyvanse. Starting my morning with an amphetamine and a cup of tea and I could take a nap. But focusing has been so much easier. I still hyperfocus, but at least now I realize I’m doing it. Also, I can listen to audiobooks now, which has been great. YMMV obviously.
I love all the breads, and that sounds yummy right now, but light with caraway is my favorite—almost certainly because it was the first I was exposed to. It won’t appeal to probably anyone, but as a kid my favorite sandwich was seeded rye, raspberry preserves, and chunky peanut butter.
