Jealous. I recently redid my roof and removed a sloped window in the attic to make room for more solar. The removed window frame and glass sat in the attic all summer and I was imagining using it for something like that. What was stopping me was the fact that it was relatively small and not very deep. … But I waited too long and it was cleared out with the rest of the construction debris. My winter salad would be doing better right now.
This, from the project I use to deploy my server, could be a starting point

Thanks, that’s what I had found. I will set up prosody somewhere and try…
Software company? They misspelled “private equity” in a peculiar way.
Do you run any bridge (I forget the XMPP nomenclature). One of the reasons I run matrix (synapse) myself is to have a single interface for many instant-message platforms. I’ve been looking into migrating to XMPP (im sure my matrix deployment can be slimmed down but for now it’s a behemoth taking 4 GB of RAM…) but I’ve been somewhat discouraged by the process
I sync to a local directory and then sync that with syncthing. It works.
The sync file is a big json thing, so concurrent edits are not exactly supported, but you get a pop up to warn you if you have diverging changes.
I worked in a couple of major european projects that had SLES everywhere, and I don’t remember official support being a topic at all.
What exactly is the use case for enterprise support? Where does it help and/or save money? I’m not challenging the concept, I’m genuinely curious because despite having worked in places where I assume it would make sense I have never seen it and never understood why would anybody pay for that.
Every time I see that brand in the store my mind goes “ooh black Betty, blend-a-med”…
Hard agree on IAM granularity. But breaking up things in projects limits the blast radius somewhat. They’ll get there.
I have the feeling that nutritional choices are one of the strongest levers we can pull as individuals to reduce our footprint. I’m vegetarian (with occasional fish) and my dog mostly eats vegetarian wet food (with a balanced nutritional value, lentils as protein). The dry food is still made with meat (we mix in a veggie one when we find a good offer). He is the most uncomplicated eater so I guess we could shift even more towards full vegan, but my understanding is that pet food producers (outside of extremely luxury brands) are working mostly with the byproducts of the meat industry for humans, and it will also naturally shift as that industry shrinks.
It should be configurable to limit draw and depending of SoC, and it should be compensated. But it should be possible.
If you are connected to the grid you participate in the grid. You shouldn’t be allowed to avoid it, unless you go off the grid entirely.
“Based on data from the U.S. Energy Information Administration, one advanced nuclear plant (2 x AP1000) produces 33.17 MW per acre, while one offshore wind farm produces approximately 0.006 MW/acre, which is approximately 5,500 times less efficient than one nuclear plant,” Interior said.
Yeah, wasted space, they should build a nuclear power plant over that… check notes… ocean.
I didn’t know Maybe, but I take the opportunity to suggest Actual, which took an opposite path (born as a closed SaaS solution, and upon commercial unviability was turned FOSS, and, boy, am I grateful for that).
Are you trying to be a cliche stereotype of a vegan in a joke?
I’m not vegan, I don’t eat meat and I very occasionally eat fish. I follow this community because veganism is something I value without being fully committed to it. The idea of eating something I like without the bitter ethical side-dish (in theory, nothing is perfect) is very interesting to me. And totally worth of the “vegan” label.
It might be a silly idea, but that’s what I do with my weighted blanket when I want it to be a bit heavier: I fold it just over my shoulders, and leave it single on the rest of the body. It doesn’t change the thermal properties much, but it feels better. So you could try a lighter weighted blanket (10 or 12 lbs), folded on the shoulder. The problem is that lighter weighted blankets are probably not necessarily cooler than a heavier one.
The link to “green energy push” in the title is pernicious. There are laws, laws are broken while mining, green energy per se should be left out of the title.
After how many half-lives, if any, can those materials be declared “cool”?
You can share energy through the grid. You already do if you have a grid following inverter, and that’s the way to do it. Local production and distribution, but no single point of failure and everybody contributes to thr maintenance of the grid. Perhaps giant improvements in solar panels and storage will make microgrids feasible everywhere, but until then the grid is the best thing we have to provide both reliability and allow for local distribution.
The energy-sharing community-laws starting around Europe are not about running cables between neighbors, but allowing the accounting and billing of energy recognizing the already existing local distribution that the grid allows.
