Me too! And with a Jonsbo N4. I'm going something like the perfect home media server, with proxmox, mergerfs and snapraid.

Then I'll run any containers locally for things like media serving.

Now I need to start collecting disks, I'm going to start with 8tb ones.

Have fun!

I think that is a bit of a mis-direct. We don't need that now, but we do need to develop it. There are plenty of electricity sources that provide enough for industry (plenty of hydro as a simple example).

The chemical processes require research and subsequent change, but removing thermal coal and just using coking coal is a massive reduction in coal usage. Maybe that is ok to get us over the hump. There is a lot of research into direct reduced iron, which is an example of removing coal from that particular process. It is not impossible, but currently maybe not too easy.

There is a lot of research into hard to abate sectors, I actually work for a heavy mining company that is doing just that.

Aluminum smelting is doing a lot of work going to renewables as it is cheaper and more sustainable for them.

It does take a an operational strategy change for it to work though., but it is possible in a lot of sectors.

Probably because it is not selfhosted nor is it a web app??

Note, I use fossify calendar, but I still would like a self hosted web app calendar system

This article ignores a lot of reality when it comes to firming renewables, and my paranoia was triggered when they wrote mainstream media.

Shilling out for the fossil fuel lobby.

Sure, it is not going to be easy, or quick (enough), but cost is going to drive out the more expensive forms of generation, which will be coal and gas.

I'm doing my part for Vanuatu.... Not sure if anyone will use it here, but I'm having fun!

I expect that it is not voluntary

[–] palitu@aussie.zone 1 points 11 months ago

That is why it is

I agree about this. Reddit and co do this automatically. I would like to increase or decrease priority of communities, something like a score multiplier for post rankings.

But, not it doesn't have it.

Yeah, has been a fun watch, especially since I am a force fan. We tend to lose the close ones, so it has been refreshing to see them take it to the final minutes and close out (or win) games at the death.

We didn't get very many rebels, and none of the wallabies/top tier ones. Mostly we looked internationally to find Aussies that wanted to crack the wallabies

I guess that is one of the issues with reuse of frameworks and things. The first one takes a lot of new stuff. Subsequent KDE software doesn't

I guess there are pro's and cons to all things.

Good Morning Perth!

My mother in-law and I are interested in getting solar with Batteries, but i am really not sure of the options are at the moment, at least from a cost and rebates perspective.

What are the current costs for your installs or quotes you have received?

Feel free to should out any good suppliers/installers you have worked with

Thanks!

I have to look for a christmas present for a nephew, and one of the thoughts was a poster of basketball players. Anyone know where there are places to buy them now?

I know there was a place at the royal show, but i am damned if i know where to go now.

There are online places, but shipping is about the same as the poster itself!

would love some options,

thanks!

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

 

Super rugby kicks off tonight. How many teams will still be solvent by the end of the season?

Hi all, I am looking for a starter tablet to show tabs, and in the future potentially musical notation.

As a starter into i am looking for ideas on what sort of tablet. Is 10" big enough? and what are some good apps for it?

My preference is Android, but if all else fails, an iPad could work.

cheers

 

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!
