overview for palitu

I am very conscious of how much data I use due to where I now live. I have noticed that flatpak's have a massive download size (100's of megs), especially when compared to the deb package (kb to mb) 2-3 orders of magnitude more.

Shared grocery list suggestions? in c/[email protected]

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 weeks ago

Yep, this is what we use. I always found the others too prescriptive. I don't need to add the type, size or brand of cheese, I just want to put cheese, and me or my wife knows what sort of cheese to buy.

If we need something specific, you can add that detail too.

Super quick, super simple. I would love a self hosted alternative, bit there is nothing as simple that I have found.

How nice of them, I asked them to add links to the apps, as I don't know what they are by the name.

Thanks :)

Guide to make vector topo maps with JOSM and Inkscape (infinitely scaleable paper wall maps) in c/[email protected]

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Yeah, sorta out of the box. But there are a few crash bugs in it, as pointed out in article.

It would be good if qgis had some native osm plugins

I loved maperitive. But it has not been maintained for ages.

If they opened it up, I'm sure it would get some love for the community as it is a really cool tool that could go much further than it has already.

Sigh.

Service to store and share WiFi credentials (aussie.zone)

submitted 6 months ago by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

This is a bit of an odd one,

I have just moved to another country where internet is very expensive, and i would like to have an app to create a shared list of Wifi creds where i find them, whether that is offices, hotels or cafes, etc.

It would kind of be like the OpenWifi Map, but maybe a bit more private?

Does anyone know of anything like this? it would be able to tell where you are and alert you or autoconnet to the wifi using the credentials that are stored.

The reason i want it to be shared is that my wife can use the ones that i find and vice-versa.

cheers

Offshoring my solutions (aussie.zone)

Hey y'all!

I am after the colelctive expertise of this fantastic community. My family and i are moving overseas for a year for a pacific adventure, which leaves my hosting setup in a bind. We will be renting out our house and i will need to move all of my 'servers' (read laptop and NAS) out.

All of my services are in docker.

My main services that i MUST keep are:

Immich
- 600Gb or so
- very important as we will be taking a HEAP of photos.
paperless
vaultwarden
custom location tracking service
radicale

I would also like to make it so that all of my media is still available, but i may need to get a set up at a friends house. I have jellyfin plus a bunch of *arr's

I was thinking a mix between at a mates house and a cloud server.

any thoughts?

edit: a lot of my services are exposed publicly, via Nginx proxy manager.

RPi client for tv (aussie.zone)

My jellyfin server is all set up and ready to go.l, but I want to replace my Kodi box, it is just painful.

Is there a nice way to setup a rPi to run as a client, that just turns on and looks like a media centre? Ie, it loads up and is ready to go at power on?
