What are their complaints about Mattermost? That might help.

Yes

Even the “author’s” response sounds like ChatGPT.

Yet they call this the simpler bar, huh?

My current thermostat is at least 20 years old. What’s your point? That we should accept big tech telling us to throw our devices away long before they’ve outlived their usefulness because their programmers can’t do their jobs without an ever growing 16-layered ball of code that performs like crap?

This article has been rightfully flagged and bashed to hell on HN.

Sort of. Headscale is an OSS component that replaces the SAAS Tailscale component but it’s not a full replacement. It’s still pretty dang good though.

Is there typically such a massive difference between using http://local_ip:3000 and https://speed.mydomain.com?

Only if they resolve to different addresses.

Wow, some promise!

Be aware that hardware access from a virtual machine(for an audio interface, for example) can be jittery or slow (latency), which might make it unusable for your purposes or not. You’ll have to find out.

It’s kind of ironic that a mod felt the need to bring the censorship down like that, instead of allowing for an open discussion.

No, of course not, but it’s always fun watching big companies sputter when their AI says things the company doesn’t want them to say, especially when the entire tech industry seems hell-bent on deluding everyone into thinking LLM output can be trusted to parse medical records, provide customer service better than humans, and provide a net-positive to this world.

I suspect that’s why the author did it in the first place:

I asked Meta whether Brian’s story was credible. Sweeney, the spokesperson, didn’t respond to follow-up questions.

I have to ask, even though I’m afraid of the answer, exactly how many USB storage devices are you (planning on) hooking up to that poor machine?

I mean, Kagi is sketchy as hell despite the people praising it.

No. People who want the benefit of self housing without worrying about hardware will rent a vps or something simpler. The hard part of hardware isn’t the purchase, it’s the maintenance.

Also, why the separate router?

Bullshit DMCA abuse

Have you passed their captive portal before turning on the VPN?

Look, I’m satiated, I don’t need to discover new apps nor great content through Google Play. Most apps are trash and I’ve never bought content through Google Play.

Wonder why they wouldn’t use OSM.
