This must be from another timeline. Sorry for the inconvenience, please skip.

User focused applications running on my own internet accessible infrastructure fully based on open standards and interoperable with the Fediverse... Yes please

I'm looking forward to play with this.

I totally forgot about that :P That would be great indeed.

The PD trigger board may be much more involved/expensive though and I have not seen any budget battery banks supporting it. One can dream.

I expect consuming devices to adapt themselves to the three or four commonly provided voltages for the foreseeable future.

I have done this using a usbc power bank explicitly rated to 20v. You only need a usbc power delivery trigger (which are not expensive).

I used diodes from a washing machine to drop from 20v to about 18.8v in my case. These dissipate quite a bit of heat so my cable has an extra metal plate as heatsink. I would put the diodes in the middle of the cable if I'd make it again. It is good for keeping it topped up as the current is lower and the heat stays lower too.

Wow. So Global Aviation puts as much carbon in the air every year from a fossil fuel source which we can't put back than the unique and terrible wildfires Canada had in 2023.

We sure need to fly less!

We also ask for a GitHub handle but when one supplies Codeberg or GitLab it's seen as very positive. Might not be the case for standard HR though.

Belgian here. It's about money and racism. Flanders (north) makes more money and has a higher employment rate. The separatist movement aims to put Flanders' wealth first.

Foreigners are perceived to threaten our way of life and are perceived to cost money too. Vlaams Belang has been rather controversial in their statements earlier with a new young team creating some uproar. Both claim to benefit the Flemish citizen and will create better jobs with higher incomes.

Far left also gained ground so we are becoming more polarised.

I'm not a legal expert, but this talks about "inability to fulfill a contractual obligation" rather than the refusal to do so.

I assume the problem is slightly different and it is mainly a problem of not being able to go after the money (perhaps at reasonable cost) if the travelers have it?

Mercedes's stars have been on springs for decades indeed. You can easily push them over (but make sure you put it back nicely). I think Rolls Royce's Spirit of Ecstasy pops back into the hood but I don't know how that works on impact.

Nice script. What is the reason to toggle the brightness?

Set up a Matrix bridge and promote it too. You can't force a community but you can inform and give choice.

The writing style and positive fighting spirit of https://lemmy.world/comment/3597938 is great. Would read a book of this person.

Kubernetetes is crazy complex when comparing to docker-compose. It is built to solve scaling problems us self-hosters don't have.

First learn a few docker commands, set some environment variables, mount some volumes, publish a port. Then learn docker-compose.

Tutorials are plenty, if those from docker.com still exist they're likely still sufficient.
