Vivaldi browser has email and calendar built in.

It’s not great, but it’s European and 1 app for everything.

Fairmail on Android for my main email client.

For those complaining about Thunderbird’s search… did you raise a ticket? That’s the way to get things improved…

Thanks for the background on the tiles.

Yeah, from my PoV, I’d like to use the OSM data that’s already on my phone (from other OSM based apps), but I understand your point.

So, where’s your VPS? In EU?

FYI: Got the app installed, followed the instructions (which refers to a Home Assistant template that doesn’t exist on the app?), modified the default custom template with tid set to an identifier and … I appear to be at home 🙂

Thank you

you can predownload map tiles from a tile server I selfhost or use your own tile server.

Could OSM tiles be used? Ie direct the app to an OSM server and download their data?

I’ve no idea how tiles work, so this may be an absurd question 🙂

I’m currently using GPSLogger, but Home Assistant’s integration for it can’t handle >1 device… if I install your app on multiple devices, can Home Assistant distinguish between them? Ie does the data nclude a DeviceID of some kind?

Edit: ok, I think I’ve found the answer in your Home Assistant documentation

I don’t use docker, etc, so for me, if it’s in the normal Arch repos or AUR then I don’t need to think about it until there’s a .pacnew file to look at

Then, it’s just the odd git pull on literally 2 devices.

All organised by ansible…

(well except the .pacnew, but I think it’s nice to keep in touch with the packages)

Just a word of caution…

I try to upgrade 1 (of a similar group) manually first to check it’a not foobarred after the update, then crack on with the rest. Testing a restore is 1 thing, but restoring the whole system…?

Yeah, ok, fair enough. That probably answers all the questions…

Virgin will be throttling, AND having internal problems 🙂

Be interesting if your VPS hop also gets throttled…

VPN throttling: are you sure your DNS traffic’s going through the VPN tunnel and going to an external server, not your ISP’s?

If they can see where you’re browsing, maybe that’s triggered something.

If it was only for a few hours though, maybe they just had an internal problem?

Give them a call and ask them. And if they’re doing something weird (throttling traffic), they should be able to tell you why… and consider leaving them if they’re not providing the service you need.

True, but, I don’t need docker or a VMM to run it in, or as many resources. Backups are easier, updates are predictable… and are adverts now a thing with the AIO?

I come from the early days when every NC point release needed a lot of tweaks to even make it work… hence the AIO was born from that mess.

I just found a simpler solution…

That paper calendar must be rigid now with all that white paint 🤭

Do it.

I found no-one used the NC interface for anything, so it was a lot of maintenance for no reason.

I replaced NC with Radicale and syncthing

Radicale is also really easy to setup as a “normal” package… I have it running on a Pi.

Such a small, simple system, it’s great.

Funny that the name dropping of Chrome in the link summary implies Firefox users are safe.

Well, the article does actually state that in the text…

when both are available it’s hard to decide.

It’s easy to decide: AUR (only)

Personally, I use pacman for as much as I can, then dip into yay for anything else.

Another reason to leave Windows…

(I know, my comment doesn’t address the core issue)

Keys, paperclips and coins… they kinda work their way towards the PCB and short out crtitical things

Coils & curves?

From my viewpoint it looks like balance and counter balance 🙂

Are those all balanced, pivoting around a power outlet?

Ok, I think you’ve given me more motivation to look at it again.

Thanks.

Yeah, I’ve got to go with this response too.

I moved into a house with a plastic shed and it was literally snapping in all the corners, things inside were rusting due to the condensation, etc.

Honestly, go with the wood.

So, that would play music on the client? Ie your phone? Or can it play through a local DAC too?

Ok, not heard of Moode. The website looks interesting, I’ll check it out, thanks!
