Obligatory if you install HA on a raspberry Pi. Use the SSD option as you will wear out an SD card or usb key pretty quickly since those devices aren’t intended for constant writes from things like logging and generally don’t have any wear out leveling.
That’s a neat feature. I will request that gets added to sync.
At home I have 4 screens, 3 in a row and one over top of the center.
The bottom ones change based on what I am doing. Games, browser, IDEs, consoles, terminal windows, etc.
The top is always a better in the left 2/3rd mostly playing music or videos. The right third is Element/Matrix which bridges in all my other chats (FB, WhatsApp, signal, telegram, Discord, gmessages, etc) so I can see them in one tidy spot.

At work I have 8 screens 6 in a 2 tall by 3 wide config, a big one on the side, and another touch screen on the other side. Which is all used for control and monitoring… And often feels like not enough when things get busy.
Whenever this happens, I just think about the song that never ends, it goes on and on my friends. Some people started singing it not knowing what it was, and they’ll continue singing it forever just because…
1000/1000 @ $C 75
I have 3 different first party fiber ISPs available to me at home with a max speed available of 8000/8000
Which is weird because I’m not in a city and live in a small town of less than 20k people
This is exactly my sentient.
Canada mid 30s. A car is essentially required outside of a major city but after my first two cars were manual the incredible inconvenience of crawling traffic got to me and my current car is an automatic.
I found I had to constantly hug the car in front which meant always feathering the clutch, if I didn’t and the gap grew just large enough for a car to fit someone always jumped lanes into the gap.
On Android I just started using kiwi browser a month or two ago it’s for android only but it’s chromium based and supports extensions which brings ublock and others to mobile.

I don’t know how slow the old one was, but if I send myself an SMS using the bridge it completes a round trip to the Telco and back in about 1 second
Have you tried the new SMS bridge that relies on gmessages?
https://github.com/mautrix/gmessages
If you have an Android phone you can use the Google SMS app:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.apps.messaging
Then you pair the app and bridge. It’s been pretty reliable since I started using this bridge, especially when compared to the previous bridge options.
Is there a reason you couldn’t use either use a self hosted or the public hosted copy of element or an Android/iOS app and connect it directly to the beeper synapse/dendrite server?
Their clients are just closed forks of element anyways.
To be fair, the client they provide to make bridging more accessible is proprietary, however you can fire up a fresh copy of element and connect it if you want and just use the text interface.
The clients are closed so that they have something to sell and profit. Not everyone can afford to give their time away for free.
I have my own matrix server that I primarily use like beeper and bridge all my chats together. Even using some of their bridges, it’s been pretty reliable for years.
I know that a few people are hating on the closed source client, but that feels unfair to me. They provide lots of open code in the form of bridges which is really the meat of the offering. Their client just makes using the bridges easier for the lay person. The bridges are super easy to use without it, invite the bridge bot to a chat room, type login and do what it says, then type login-matrix and your pretty much done.
The I suspect that the same people who are displeased about the closed client also like using tailscale which is generally pretty popular but has closed source clients on Windows and Mac as well as the server (though all support the open source headscale server)
I have a FreePBX virtual machine hosted at home. I use VoIP.ms which covers most North American numbers and many numbers abroad. I use it to provide phone service to my parents house and cottage and my house and cottage. I put in about $40 a year to cover all these places with their own DID number.
Vianet - a provider out of Sudbury
Lakeland networks - a provider out of Bracebridge.
Ontario has a pretty aggressive fiber/broadband roll out right now. https://www.ontario.ca/page/ontario-connects-making-high-speed-internet-accessible-in-every-community
My family cottage is getting Bell fiber this summer too.
Ontario, Canada $82 after taxes for 400/200 A second fiber provider is coming to my street (doing locates now) and they are $82 after tax for 1000/1000.
Edit: 82 cad is 62 usd
Might I suggest Fast Reverse Proxy ( https://github.com/fatedier/frp )
It’s a great solution if you don’t have a public IP or can’t/don’t want to open any ports.
I found it super easy to setup and configure. I put caddy in front of the server side for mine to ssl offload there. But you could also route everything down the tunnel it makes and use a local reverse proxy to handle SSL offloading
I actually just stayed using kiwi browser since it’s a chromium fork that supports plugins on Android. Ublock and some other choice extensions are going pretty well for me so far
I also use .lan I used to use .local for years until I started to have conflict issues with .local resolution on Android when they started using mdns
Sonarr and Radarr need to have the directories be the same as your torrent client and newsreader.
Sonarr/Radarr read the. Directory that the API reports as the save destination and moves it from there
I agree with this, though I think a lot of people don’t differentiate between operating system containers like LXC provides and application containers like docker provides.
