What I really want is an emoji explainer feature to help me read other people's emoji. I currently copy+paste a lot of them into a search engine to find out what they're supposed to be.

All of the linked XMPP-phonenetwork bridging services appear to be United States + Canada only, so I have no hope of trying or testing this software. The best I have in my country (Australia) are SIP providers. They generally only offer la

Depends on the fuse time rating and the inrush current for the power supply (which can sometimes be more than 10A). Some 1A fuses might occasionally blow when you turn the unit on.

Yeah I don't trust the firmware they come with. It's some customised variant of OpenWRT, but I replace it with vanilla immediately. At least this is very easy (simply upload the new firmware in the web interface, no serial port

I gave up on their controller software and rolled out OpenWRT to the Unifi AP AC lites at my previous job. I didn't try managing them centrally (there were only 5 of them) so I don't know if there are any good options for that. T

No, do NOT use the .wad version. Use the .pk3 version. The .wad was added at a later date, it's not the mod, it's a stripped down vanilla level with no magic.

Yes. Normally I hate passing the buck like this, but this is something you need to configure in your HTTP server (not Minisleep). Minisleep does not handle auth itself, instead HTTP_AUTHENTICATION is handled by your HTTP webserver. Minisle
