This is a place for you to talk about things you've been working on, projects that you think are cool, things that you're doing and etc. I'm hopeful that seeing people's cool projects and efforts can be inspiring to the rest of us!
Hi all - what are some of your go-to foods? I've been doing a lot of the microwaveable processed stuff for convenience's sake, but I'd like to do a bit more cooking if possible. I don't meal prep at present but am interested to hear what y'all find easy and tasty and actually make regularly.
Thanks!
Imagine I want to create a local internet for my community. Things that will be useful, helpful, and easy to use. Ideally, setup/maintenance would be relatively straightforward too, since I will for the time being at least be running this solo.
So if I'm going to be the community SysAdmin but also have free choice of what to run, what would you think about the following ideas of things to share with people?
-Radarr (movies) -Sonarr (TV shows) -Lidarr (music) -Calbire (or Readarr I guess, for books) -Jellyfin (media streaming) -Nextcloud (file sharing)
And then as for me myself, I'd probably set up a Graylog Open instance to aggregate issues, and have a couple of separate physical servers for these different things.
Do you think that would be helpful/useful/fun for getting community members to think about the potential of hyperlocal internet?
Alternatively, are folks doing this already? If so, how do you have this kind of thing set up?
If I'm dreaming big, I would also love to set up a mesh relay to offer this intranet stuff to the community.
I'm hoping that these ideas are solarpunk enough and selfhosting enough to warrant community feedback.
Basically, I guess, are there any other community SysAdmins out there doing this kind of work?
Thanks for your time.
Hi all,
A coworker gifted me a free Trek 4500 from the early 2000s, largely unused in the last many years. It sat in my back yard for a few months while I thought about what to do with it; I've finally made the first movement towards having a badass utility bicycle.
Step one involved knowing that I like a more upright riding position and am not the most comfortable or agile person on a bike (that's nice-speak for "I'm a pretty fat guy" and "I never really rode bikes as a kid so I learned how in my mid-20s and am still not 100% comfortable with it"). So I bought a pair of swept-back handlebars which I then kept in a closet for a month, lol.
Finally I decided to just move forward, so I took the bike to the local bike shop and had them do their inspection, basic needed maintenance, and installation of the handlebars. Now I have something fairly comfortable which also looks kind of neat.
Four more things I have planned to do:
Other possibilities include a different seat, a handlebar bag in lieu of a front rack, essentially anything else to make it cool and functional.
Do y'all have any recommendations for stuff that might be worth adding or doing to this bike to make it comfortable for someone overweight to commute with and do basic errands and groceries with?
welcome to the first day of the New Year here where i am, in Western Colorado, USA. i am feeling an uncharacteristic sense of optimism today; any day can be full of new beginnings, but how great is 1/1/24 to also be full of opportunities?
speaking of which, what kind of actions have you been taking recently, or do you plan to take in the near future? how are you bringing solarpunk into the world?
may 2024 be a good year for you and yours, and me and mine, and ours, and humanity, and the earth.
'sup, comrades?
hope you're well. what's going on in your worlds? how have you been spending your time, energy, and interest? any cool praxis in your worlds?
