Wow such a great answer, thanks for sharing the thoughts that went into this. It's crazy that there are so many considerations when taking into account the limited speed of light.

What you describe can be done with self-hosted dawarich instance + the owntracks app. It records location history and lets you visualize it in a web interface. https://github.com/Freika/dawarich

Yes I've also tried it and reached similar conclusions. Do update it to the latest version though, as I did report an issue with non ASCII characters and for me it got fixed in v0.4.7+

Just a couple days ago, I saw this project mentioned. Looks promising but I haven't had the time to try it yet so this isn't an endorsement. https://claudio.uk/posts/audiblez-v4.html

Most likely it embedded a (g)zip inside the shell script? I've seen this frequently.

What. No. In Singapore the state-built apartments (HDB flats) are sold not lent to the Singaporeans/permanent residents. The state does not operate as a landlord. Most of the population owns their property here.

GW and TWh are not the same unit. You need to multiply by the hours of effective sun in a year (and applying some reduction factor for the fact that there isn't 24h of sun every day, nor that the full production capacity is reached) Ev

Ah, very interesting! I still have my sandstorm running over these many years (although seldom used, but amazingly it just continues to run/auto-update with no admin work needed). I like the idea a lot, thanks for developing this and s

Yeah, learned about it while reading the documentation of Fossil (from the same SQLite people). Their approach certainly has its own merits (and drawbacks). Just wondering how they will transition once the original few people at the top of

I don't know about the percentage of affected stars in a typical galaxy collision but note that you don't need a collision for two stars to affect each other. We're not speaking of interaction like on a pool table. The gravi

I had the same experience, trying to self-host my VPN or other evasion solutions only served to get my server and domains banned for all other purposes from inside the GFW. The symptoms were exactly the same as you described (at first, they

Updating the DNS entries can and should be automated as well. There's different solutions for different DNS setups, but many, including me, do so and don't have to worry every 3 months.

I also feel the same. Unfortunately there's no way back for pgAdmin. But also no way forward to look for. I am convinced the Web based version won't be able to match pgAdmin3 usability ever. I just forget about it and use DBeaver

Same experience here, used the workaround.org tutorial as strong inspiration (not blindly copy pasting, but to serve as guided path to follow and learn). Steep learning curve indeed, but after initial setup it's just working and necess

I do this too (running it in a docker container on my server to mutualise usage across several devices) and it suffice for catching the main errors and typos. Quite happy with it. Can indeed be recommended as substitute to grammarly free.
