I think the centrist approach would be to kill people with monocles

The avatar with arrows. Sometimes blue, but usually only the arrows get glowy blue.

I’m with you, my kid is a grumpy mess if there’s too much YouTube time, but watching Avatar on jellyfin? No problem. Things improved once we actively curated what’s available on YouTube and cut out the trash on YouTube kids.

This is my favorite from my detection

It’s an M3 nut on a 3D print.

Element call worked using element web, tested just now. Called a phone using element x

Video and voice chat with matrix works well once it’s set up. I… Struggled a bit setting it up, and I don’t think I’m the exception.

Haven’t tried screen sharing yet.

There are billionaires that aren’t either

Wait, Afab and Amab aren’t pirate captains? I imagine the jolly Rogers have different pride color sets, the skull also a rainbow.

(Hope next time you see/hear those terms, you think pirates instead of discomfort)

Having gone through it, a matrix server is not newbie friendly yet.

(Though I agree that’s a great idea)

You likely have a cam release. Telesync is a bit better quality typically (sound is typically better). Anything better takes time

Honestly? It was a pain, I used several different guides and they were all out of date in different ways. Unfortunately, it looks like external users are having connectivity problems, that I’ll try to solve next week when I have time.

My kid is 9, and it’s all Minecraft and I just installed a non federated synapse server so they can text family without having to deal with parental controls. At that age, I figure it’s more about having fun, and if they learn typing skills on the way, big win

I have a few.

Blunt umbrella - all the parts are replaceable, big win.

3d printer - I am confident I could replace any part that dies. It’s not the newest or the best, but it’s mine.

Also our humidifier is, in theory super fixable, a venta air, but it’s been rock solid and hasn’t needed work yet.

Oidc, and it’ll end up opening up to more family around the holidays, as authentik is also my matrix user provider (shut out of the real world because I wanted my 9 year old to be able to text and video call family). Mealie was a piece of cake compared to the whole synapse environment

Thanks! I finally linked mealie with authentik. It was a 10 minute task, if that, but this post pushed me over

They are both skeletons, best we can do is assume some of their genetics and come up with a statistically backed answer.

I’m running https://github.com/awinterstein/habitica/ and have built the android app locally to get access. I really need to update and build it again eventually.

It’s not seamless, but it functions for the family.

Playing regularly? Minecraft.

There are a few games I revisit as my kid grows up and gets to experience them for the first time, but Minecraft keeps coming back.

Examples of the type of service I’m looking at: a media server, photos app (to replace Google Photos), game servers, recipe management, home automation… What other things do you know about that are fun/interesting/useful?

I use:

• Immich for photo hosting
• Jellyfin and navidrome for media (video and audio)
• Calibre and calibre-web for ebooks
• Minecraft server
• Mealie for recipes.
• Home assistant for automation
• Habitica for habit forming
• And I have fpp for my Christmas lights (the application is xlights, fpp is the server that runs the scripts)

All of these I like.

“it wasn’t a good cultural fit, I’m looking for someone more dynamic/insert whatever you think the new company has”

“There weren’t any growth opportunities, I didn’t want to stagnate”.

Something where instead of complaining about the other company, you show that you want to be a good employee and seek growth opportunities, yada yada
