People of lemmy, would you live in a rural area? Why or why not?

Depending on whether it's college or NFL, and how local your team is, you could try an over the air television antenna.

I get every NFL game I need with mine.

The biggest problem people run into is a lack of thier niche communities here, and that's mostly due to a lack of overall numbers. Reddit, while a festering hellhole, still has that. I'd be thrilled to see that change one day, but it's definitely gonna be a while.

Yeah, but it doesn't really benefit the automotive manufacturers to snitch on speeders.

Hi all, I'm looking to upgrade my router from the default one that came from my ISP.

I don't need anything super fancy, just something with 4+ lan ports (1gbps is ok, 2.5gbps would be nicer), 1 WAN Port, Wifi-6 (802.11ax), and the ability to have an isolated IoT network (using a vlan for this would be nice).

Any suggestions? I'd like to keep the price down if possible. This is just for my home network.

Can't argue with science.

Pixelfed App? (lemmy.world)
submitted 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) by chronically_crazy@lemmy.world to c/fediverse@lemmy.world

I looked on search-lemmy.com and couldn't find this answer, so I figure I'll ask here.

Is there an Android App for Pixelfed besides Morii. Just trying to see what my options are.

[-] chronically_crazy@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

3.2-3.5 is also on a good day. It might not be as efficient when the outside temperature differences are further away from your thermostat setting inside, though if you have a geothermal setup, then you've got peak efficiency year round.

I've really enjoyed the questions asked here, and I've found the communities feedback to be invaluable.

And not all of those questions have been asked by me.

[-] chronically_crazy@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

I like the idea on paper. This feels like what the Fediverse needs. I'll have to tinker around with it.

[-] chronically_crazy@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

I've been wondering how to accomplish this lately. I'm looking to host a few Fediverse instances for me and my friends to use. It'd be really nice for everything I run on those to have an SSO via the main domain or a login domain.

My idea was:

  • Lemmy.example.social
  • Mastodon.example.social
  • Pixelfed.example.social
  • Matrix.example.social

Login via

  • accounts.example.social

Is this possible, or in the realm of possible?

[-] chronically_crazy@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Happy to help, though might I suggest you get 4 bay version of the NAS instead of the 2 bay version (if your budget allows it). I speak from experience in this where storage space required tends to grow quicker than anything else, and you may outgrow a 2 bay NAS quickly. This is especially true if you're running any type of raid array.

You'll also want to get a UPS to help avoid data corruption on power failures. Even if your power goes out indefinitely, doing a proper shutdown can help prevent data failure. You can see the responses I recieved asking for help on this topic here: https://lemmy.world/post/158974

I wish you luck in this endeavor.

[-] chronically_crazy@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

What are you looking to host?

You should have a general idea on what you wish to accomplish to determine which solution is better.

[-] chronically_crazy@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Yeah, I'm amazed I haven't had a need to upgrade yet.

Hi All,

Apologies if this is in the wrong community.

I'm looking to get a UPS for my home server. It runs Homeassistant, Plex, and a few other things. I mainly need something to protect from power flickers/blips, and for it to allow a proper shutdown for prolonged power outages.

Here is the power useage on all my devices:

  • Server: 350w
  • NAS: 90w
  • Router: 42w

Any info on what to look for or which model to buy would be greatly appreciated.
