Would something like this be suitable as a NAS + Jellyfin + Home Assistant box?

That’s pretty slick.

What are the HDDs plugged into? Would you mind posting some photos of the back?

CAM-Gerlach’s diary entry about options for tagging sidewalk connector stubs was a very interesting read. I appreciate how they recognized the need to balance pragmatism/ease of mapping and interpreting versus technical correctness (two often opposing goals).

I also appreciate that they took the time to post their analysis on their OSM diary so that it can be indexed by search engines and everyone can benefit from it instead of being locked behind membership of OSM’s Slack workspace.

be sure you are installing Firefox through similar means across distros. This will not work with the Flatpak, for example.

Very good point, I’ve picked up on this as well. Installed through the native package manager, the profile folder lives under ~/.mozilla/ whereas for flatpaks it’s under ~/.var/app/org.mozilla.firefox/.mozilla/.

I like to minimize cloud services if I can help it.

Why not just keep /home on a separate partition?

My issue is that over time, a lot of cruft builds up in there from apps I no longer use. I like things nice and clean.

Or just backup ~/.mozilla/?

The thought has crossed my mind. Maybe I should try this next time. Thanks for the idea.

try to sneakily make me register passcodes

Can you expand on this? I’m not sure what this means. Is it like instead of a full fledged password, just a four digit PIN or something? Thanks.

How does one find such retired laptops? As an individual hobbyist in the US, would I just monitor eBay, Craigslist, or Facebook?

No, no limits, we’ll reach for the skyyyy

Noice! I am able to find this very thread through searxng, which seems to behave like an actual search engine with its own search results page, but I couldn’t find it through fedi-search, which seems to be little more than an auto redirect tool.

https://fedi-search.com/

Hmm, this sounds like a really cool idea, but it doesn’t seem to do what I thought it would. For example, I went to https://fedi-search.com/ and searched for “stop internet searching” expecting to find this very thread, but alas, no dice.

cute cat, thanks for sharing!

The mod log is public, linked in the footer on lemmy.ml.

I’ve seen it in the US as well.

Suppose those of us who’ve missed the bus want to get a copy of the content from before the 20th, is that still available? In other words, do they offer downloads of older versions of the content?

You find the nopic version is still usable? I haven’t used the offline content, but I feel like no images would leave me wanting more. Then again, for what it is, it’s still pretty awesome, and I understand that storage space is a consideration.

Check the community discussion thread (linked in the OP). I’m not sure they cover the Persian/Arabian Gulf specifically, but in general terms your question is likely answered in that thread.

TL;DR: There are various tags, prefixes, suffixes, whole nine yards for documenting all the different types of names.

This is awesome—thank you for sharing. Way to go, Utah mappers!

ETA thanks to the author for sharing their method for obtaining those metrics—downloading the extracts, creating the diff file, importing into JOSM, using the Filter and Measurement tools, etc.
