Step 4. NASA builds planes that work (on the side).

You mean like the Punkt MP02?

The MP02 is the first voicephone to offer a downloadable privacy feature that uses the Signal protocol to provide free, encrypted Internet-based calls and texts worldwide via Wi Fi or mobile data (subject to data charges). We believe Signal provides vastly greater security compared to the widely-used encrypted alternatives, which exist primarily as tools for harvesting and selling valuable metadata (contacts lists, who communicated with whom, when it happened, etc.). In the Signal system, all metadata is encrypted.
By using the Signal-protocol, it is possible to add group messaging and voice messages to the MP02.

Even the 100MB/sec won’t work for long as these stupidly small MicroSDs tend to heat up A LOT and then go into throttling where the transfer rate goes down to <1MB/sec.

I loved the idea behind Swatch's .beats. A "beat" was slightly short of 1.5 minutes, so totally usable in everyday life. If you need more precision, decimals - as @sawdustprophet@midwest.social suggested - are allowed.

However, one big issue of it is that it is based on Biel, Switzerland local time and the same for everyone around the world. Might not be that big of a problem for Europeans, but while e.g. @000 is midnight in Biel, it's early morning in Australia, and afternoon/evening in the US.

And the second, bigger issue becomes obvious when you start looking at the days. E.g. people in the US would start work @708 on a Tuesday and finish @042 on Wednesday. Good luck scheduling your meetings like this.

Did you also check out GoToSocial? It’s a very light Mastodon-compatible server, but comes without a user-facing GUI. So you need to use a client app.

However, I don’t know whether it can be easily migrated to from Mastodon.

Grafana and Prometheus are great if you have numeric things you want to monitor. CPU usage, RAM, disks, throughput, etc. You can then do lots of things with these numbers, mainly compare them to your other systems or alert when they go out of bounds.

However, I very much prefer Zabbix for my home network monitoring as this is not so fixated on numbers but can easily work with e.g. error messages in logfiles and alert on those. Or I can regularly check a website for new firmware versions and alert once the latest version changes. There are also lots of ready-to-use templates available from their Community Hub.

OpenHub is vaguely working like this. It is meant to accumulate all your development work throughout the Internet. E.g. my profile there looks like this:

It’s not for self-hosting, though, as far as I’m aware.

Yes! And if it gets too complex for simple checkboxes and formulas, there are a few places where you can enter JavaScript into a textbox. But it’s all inside the web GUI. No need to fiddle with files on the server.

Switched from CMK to Zabbix at my previous job. Zabbix is far more comfortable and has all the same possibilities that CMK has. But you can setup everything in the web GUI and don’t need to reload anything.

My go-to is a flash drive with Ventoy and then System Rescue CD and a few other ISOs (Antivirus scanner (Desinfec’t), Windows installer, Linux installer, etc.) on it. But I’m mostly using System Rescue CD and it can be installed directly to USB, too, if you want. Not really for novice users, though, as it boots into the Linux command line. But there’s X11 with GParted and other graphical tools available.

That’s because 90% of the issues happen on Arch first and are then prevented on the other distros. 😉

Shreddit and PowerDeleteSuite were last updated years ago. I’ve used redact.dev which can also edit your comments to random strings before deleting them as “deleting” on Reddit doesn’t delete anything but only hides it from public view.

I’m now also doing a manual pass by using a Google search for “mbirth” (incl. quotes!) followed by site:reddit.com and a date filter for everything of like 10 years ago and then manually delete all the comments the deletion tools didn’t catch via the API.
