Broadcast versus on demand.

Cable sends the sane data to everyone at the same time. So it is something like, read from the hard drive once. Send it out once. Everywhere it goes, it is just the same thing replicated to each and every reciever, no changes, just copy and paste.

Streaming is different. Every piece of information sent is basically unique, you need to send each piece of information perfectly, you need to read from the hard drive thousands of times, as everyone is watching something different, you need to send unique information to the right location perfectly and in order and at the right time. If it goes wrong, you get buffering.

Cable and Broadcast, no buffer ing, but no choice.

Streaming, choice but with buffering

Unpaid overtime because of passion? Or that they must or find a new job?

I am trying FUTU board. Not sure if it has gifs tho8gh...

Yeah, I love the meshtastic idea, and just did some reading on it.

You can put license = true and it will allow full power

[–] palitu@aussie.zone 1 points 4 weeks ago (2 children)

Not quite. To use this you need to have a license still, otherwise you are stuck with low power as well.

Meshtastic can also increase power if you are licensed.

Yep, this is what we use. I always found the others too prescriptive. I don't need to add the type, size or brand of cheese, I just want to put cheese, and me or my wife knows what sort of cheese to buy.

If we need something specific, you can add that detail too.

Super quick, super simple. I would love a self hosted alternative, bit there is nothing as simple that I have found.

How nice of them, I asked them to add links to the apps, as I don't know what they are by the name.

Thanks :)

I wonder if there are simple interfaces, basically just a setup in osmand that simplifies it for people like my wife that does want complex

It is powerful enough that I reckon it can do it.

[–] palitu@aussie.zone 1 points 1 month ago

Yeah, sorta out of the box. But there are a few crash bugs in it, as pointed out in article.

It would be good if qgis had some native osm plugins

I loved maperitive. But it has not been maintained for ages.

If they opened it up, I'm sure it would get some love for the community as it is a really cool tool that could go much further than it has already.

Sigh.

 

Hi, i have been using KDE (now on KDE Neon)for a while as my daily driver and have been wanting to improve the email/calendar situation.

I have seen Merkuro releases and announcements, but no instructions on how to install it!

Please help - how do i use Merkuro!?!? is there a flatpak or repo somewhere.

TIA

 

This is a bit of an odd one,

I have just moved to another country where internet is very expensive, and i would like to have an app to create a shared list of Wifi creds where i find them, whether that is offices, hotels or cafes, etc.

It would kind of be like the OpenWifi Map, but maybe a bit more private?

Does anyone know of anything like this? it would be able to tell where you are and alert you or autoconnet to the wifi using the credentials that are stored.

The reason i want it to be shared is that my wife can use the ones that i find and vice-versa.

cheers

Hey y'all!

I am after the colelctive expertise of this fantastic community. My family and i are moving overseas for a year for a pacific adventure, which leaves my hosting setup in a bind. We will be renting out our house and i will need to move all of my 'servers' (read laptop and NAS) out.

All of my services are in docker.

My main services that i MUST keep are:

  • Immich
    • 600Gb or so
    • very important as we will be taking a HEAP of photos.
  • paperless
  • vaultwarden
  • custom location tracking service
  • radicale

I would also like to make it so that all of my media is still available, but i may need to get a set up at a friends house. I have jellyfin plus a bunch of *arr's

I was thinking a mix between at a mates house and a cloud server.

any thoughts?

edit: a lot of my services are exposed publicly, via Nginx proxy manager.

 

Hi fellow hosters! I really did not know where to ask this question - and i thought you lot are pretty similar to me. If you can think of somewhere else to post this, please let me know!

I am looking for a solution to be able to host my own books (something like calibre i guess), that i can easily push them to a yet-to-be-purchased eReader.

Firstly - What eReader are you using that allows you to add any number of book sources to? i would also like to include my local library subscription, as well as locally hosted and purchased ones.

Secondly - Any hints on hosting a book collection. (Readarr v calibre, etc), where you get books from, removing DRM from eBooks that you buy, that sort of stuff.

thanks!

 

Hey lemmings.

I find that I am not seeing what I am Interested in from the smaller comms I have subscribed to.

Is there a way to increase their visibility?

I was think it would be useful to put a multiplier on the scores of various comms, ie !perth@aussie.zone can have a 5x multiplier so that is see more of those posts, in comparison to other larger comms.

I am having to go to the comms explicitly to see their posts.

Cheers!
