Cool! Any interesting things in the tech stack, OP? I’ve been meaning to set something like this up for my family, local only.

If you’re into minimalism, I quite like mLauncher from f-droid.
I host my own feed aggregator/reader using Fresh RSS. Easy install with docker, pretty good feature set. I don’t like the mental overhead of going to an app to get things so I use my browser to view the feeds on mobile and desktop.
It feels like waterboarding though.
Same boat here, headphone jack is nonnegotiable.
550 stretches. Use amsteel.
I use pihole. Pihole does not work for sites that serve ads from the same domain, like YouTube
Knife < sword < spear < bow < trebuchet
You used to be with it, but then they changed what it was, and you weren’t with it anymore.
If you manage to hijack an airplane using a credit card sized multitool, honestly you should be given that plane and a medal.
Probably DeviantOllam. The man’s a legend.
We can call it the USB 3.2 Gen2x2 Magnets, How Do They Work Edition
Fairly certain these can’t be done on iPhone but correct me if I’m wrong:
Depending on what model and manufacturer you go with,
There’s good deals on lenovo m900s or dell optiplex that are great for this. New enough to have low idle wattage and decent performance for VMs and containers, and old enough that they’re cheap.
Phillip DeFranco still makes videos? Huh. TIL.
Scanning isn’t a problem, it’s when someone gets in and sets up a c&c client that you’ve got issues. If you have open ports and out of date software, or bad password practices, it’s only a matter of time before someone turns automated port knocking into embedding malware in your printers and IOT devices.
Indeed. Everything is stored in plain markdown files you can move around and edit elsewhere. I’d like to use a FOSS alternative when I can, but second best is something I can easily jump ship from and not lose data.
you’re on windows, get sharex. It’s miles ahead of anything else. It’s the only thing I miss from daily driving windows.
Raspberry pi/small NUC with a screen, in a digital kiosk mode. Just load a static html file with some js to update the clock. No keyboard, no touch input, no way to break it. Connect to it via ssh over tailscale or wireguard VPN to update the HTML with the notes you’d like to display. This way if internet goes down, the clock still works and whatever was displayed wrt messages stays displayed, and you don’t have to worry about the increased overhead of home assistant changes or updates breaking things. It will remain consistent since it’s just HTML and js. If you want less technical family members to be able to update the display…idk, seems like a headache.
