Then VPN in, send a signal to the esp using one of various methods to tell it to send the packet.

this sounds like it requires another computer already turned on

yes you need if you want HTTPS that is accepted by the smartphone client apps of your services.

domains are a constant expense

we shouldn’t need to pay for a domain to be able to self host.

yes, I made a mistake when writing. I was hoping I edited it soon enough that nobody noticed

element call is still a separate thing, but I guess it’s better integrated now

element also has their own service for that, element call. that too can be used without login, or selfhosted

ps: I was wrong it’s not a fork, but a different thing doing the same and more

It’s this one: https://git.gammaspectra.live/git/go-away

the project name is a bit unfortunate to show for users, maybe change that if you will use it.

some known privacy services use it too, including the invidious at nadeko.net, so you can check there how it works. It’s one of the most popular inv servers so I guess it cannot be bad, and they use multiple kinds of checks for each visitor

there’s a fork that has non-js checks. I don’t remember the name but maybe that’s what should be made more known

its not beta anymore since 2.0

its not beta anymore since 2.0

its definetly not lossless, but it works quite efficiently

nepenthes is the tool for that

Probably because its so easy to walk in and just take money out i feel like im gonna get caught for something bad that I didnt actually do.

this part made me realize the reason I have the feeling is money laundering laws, background checks and legal takeout limits

I think their life just became so hopeless that they have fallen into this very deep feeling of meaninglessness. I guess it can happen when your life gets wrecked

I am running the AIO and here it has the slowest webapp by a large margin, on desktop, laptop and phone

Take the ZFS plunge - My only real concern is the overhead

you shouldn’t worry about ZFS overhead if you are planning to use mergerfs.

you can tune the memory usage of ZFS significantly. by default it targets using half of your RAM, but on a home setup that’s wasting resources, you should be able to limit the arc cache to 1-2 GB, maybe somewhat more depending on how you want to use it. It’s done with sysctl or kernel parameters.

And the issues are locked so if something nefarious happens, discussion will only occur somewhere else instead of the repo

people shouldn’t count on that anyways because the repo owner can delete issues, comments, also edit them

and the code must be a replicable build by F-Droid’s internal apk signature copying process

that’s not a requirement. or was it already being built reproducibly?

it means android api changes, google play restrictions and removals
