Don’t use nextcloud, even as a professional IT admin / software engoneer it was clunky and complicated to setup and maintain.
It’s also slow.
Immich hosting options or OpenCloud are a better bet.


Blinds can technically be extended but “open” to both light in, and minor light absorption


For renters.


You raise a good point!
I plan to use EcoFlow powerbanks in self power mode to have them be a a UPS that is supplemented bt the sun, which lets me get by the “no power into wall” limitations.


Those would be really nice!


Thanks for bringing up flexible connectors! I didn’t consider that before.
Would blinds be better for not needing more flexible connectors, or worse?


We don’t (yet) have flexible panels that would survive the abuse that curtains experience.
Vertical surfaces are not nearly as effective for the majority of cases in capturing solar radiation.
But blinds then would be perfectly fine no? They can adjust their angle and aren’t flexible.
Windows have lots of obstructions that reduce the effectiveness of a solar panel.
A 10% loss is not bad, even 30% isn’t too bad, because every cent counts.
Putting solar panels behind an extra layer of glass that would need to be kept pristine would be counter productive.
You don’t clean your windows yearly?
The voltages involved in solar panels would create an added source of danger inside the house.
Home/Commercial battery systems like EcoFlow don’t seem dangerous at all to me. I feel like the danger you’re describing is minimal with the wattages you’d get from window panels.


I worked 64 hours a week to pay for my College Tuition.
That is plus 18 hours of classes, and 18 hours of studies a week.
This was for the cheapest college near me at a rate of $4000 a semester.
I love being slaved to the point my grades were low only because of my work. When I saved enough / got scholarships, I was able to stop working, and my grades became a 4.
So in summary, slaving to afford a chance to have a low grade compared to those with wealth who can get to focus all their time to college.


I wish there was a way to disable search engines. Even better to be able to custom define them.
Would also be nice to disable to fallback behavior of using catbox, or at least the ability to use a custom storage pool.


BWHAHAH Shafiq fits him so much


Thank you very much Sis! ✨


I’d like a source on the silica needles?


Fedora Atomic for user facing devices.
Fedora Server for servers.


no clue what you’re saying… works on every system I have


wine already has it…

Buy dimmer, filament style LEDs. They don’t burn themselves out hy heat at least.
Otherwise you’re facing planned obsolescence.


We have that already and I’ve eaten it.


A kid traded my shiny bakugan for a black one at lunch after asking to “borrow” mine. This was during elemental school.
I hold that grudge against your Ryan, I have kept you in the back of my mind for decades and will enact vengeance eventually.
