That is a lot of money for me, especially if all I need it to do is simulate the on button. Surely there is some really cheap arm based device that has an ethernet port and can therefore send WOL signals.

Arch wiki strikes again! That’s pretty cool I just checked and the bios on my pc does indeed have this feature.

What?? which ones?

Lan is not the name of my parent 💀

Using a public instance is more private than using a private selfhosted instance.

That actually seams pretty awsome, just using a really low powered device to send WOL commands.

I don’t have home assistant setup in my parents place, that is a nice feature though I might use that for other things.

I already have 2x2tb hard drives, a singular sd card is not enough for me I need some level of redundancy even for my backups.

Its also free if you get it on fdroid.

I didn’t realise the bios could do that I will look into that.

The search engines that searxng interact with still track you. For this reason I will always use a public instance to mix up the tracking with everyone else using it.

I don’t really take issue with dozens of posts by newbies asking the same basic question over and over. I used to be one and am occasionally back there again if I start a new hobby. Hopefully newcomers don’t get pushed off by overly sensitive moderation.

I’m not sure if I agree with this, unless you need clarification on something specific the forum like nature and search should allow you to find answers to previous questions without asking it again.

But I do agree overmoderation is bad. I swear if communities start implementing a karma system…

I mean even if you cure aging you probably will still be hit with a car or heck a meteor falls directly on top of you. Even if it takes a few thousand years.

Almost everyone dreams every night, it’s very rare not to. Most people just don’t remember them.

I cant really tell the difference between mid range and high quality gear/music but I can’t stand low quality gear/music.

I never listen to playlists or individual songs, albums all the way! It’s the way the artist intended it after all!

Yes I regularly just listen to music. Especially when no one else is in the house I’ll turn up the sound system and listen to some nice albums.

Definitely! Jazz is the most underrated music genre, most people don’t give jazz the chance it deserves because they think it’s for old people (as a young person I can tell you it’s not) Progressive rock is amazing, the prophets song from queen is one of queens best songs. And Radio head is over-hyped.

I mostly get music from friends and other people that are interested in music.

Buying low and selling high is fundamentally taking advantage of other peoples losses.

So someone recently told me I should cut back on donations to open source projects.

Your being too nice, be more greedy??

Commonwealth bank
