1. Is it not possible to put it in another room?
2. Those servers are designed to go into a dedicated server room without regard to noise. Could you relocate it to a new enclosure?

They don’t seem to like anyone very much.

Cool, thank you!

When you add a server endpoint in the settings, you’re pointing it at your own existing server (Dawarich, Home Assistant, Traccar or any HTTP endpoint).

Ok please forgive me, I’m unfamiliar with this terminology.

Colota actually has automatic file export (Settings > Export Data > Auto-Export)

Oh, sick, I missed that somehow, thanks.

Sorry for the confusion on my part.

I still don’t see a way to import data? Doesn’t do any good to back it up if I can’t import it back in?

There is no backup server. Users can create and add one if they like.

No I understood the server is self-hosted…?

Colota offers out of the box file export

I see that but this should be an automatic backup process. Plus there’s no way I can see to IMPORT that data somewhere else.

When I use an app like Fitotrack, it automatically makes a backup file periodically and then is automatically backed up to my server with Nextcloud or Syncthing. I don’t need a dedicated server for it.

Colota already uses WiFi for home detection (WiFi pause in geofence zones)

How can it do that when it didn’t ask me for an SSID? And what’s the point of the geofence if it doesn’t even use it anyway? I am cornfuse.

When wifi disconnects or/and motion is recognized the GPS starts again.

How is motion recognized without GPS?

Why a dedicated backup server instead of just backing up to a local file that can then be backed up to a service of choice?

Also for profiles, it would make more sense to use Bluetooth to detect a vehicle or WiFi to detect when you’re home vs. Geofencing or Android Auto or speed. How can it tell when you leave the geofence if the GPS is off?

Except you still don’t have a mouse

🤣

I just…don’t understand why anyone would buy this. Like, if you need it to be portable, you’re going to need a display and a mouse/trackpad, so just get a laptop. If you don’t need it to be portable, then why wouldn’t you just use a desktop machine? If the keyboard fails then you have to throw away the entire machine.

Breezy is great but it’s not even consistent with itself. Go into a different part of the UI and get completely different numbers.

Hey I am an outdoorsman and I find it difficult to find data about rain, specifically quantity of rain, hourly and daily. Is there a good way I can access this info from your site?

Imagine if you had to recreate OSM every hour. Because that’s how often gas prices change.

GasBuddy’s primary source is a crowdsourced user database. Kinda hard to recreate that at a FOSS level, as it will inevitably require a centralized server.

They also use OPIS, which is a subscription-based database. So who’s gonna pay for that?

Do you have any resources for that?

This is why I use Bazzite. It just updates on the background and I don’t have to think about it. Although ideally there would be an “update and shut down” option like in Windows. Kinda baffling that that doesn’t already exist.

I’m not really an audiophile. It sounds as good as my ATHM50x.

I got the $28 Nubwo headset and honestly have no complaints. Sound quality both in and out is decent. No connection issues. Has a mute button on the headset itself. Hasn’t degraded at all. Battery lasts months. It’s comfortable. The earcups breathe and don’t make my head all sweaty. It comes with a tactile analog volume wheel, which I love so much!

So you don’t care but also simultaneously nothing is more important. Ok.

And yet you cared enough to weigh in.
