I’ve worked on SCADA systems. The most the keyboard was used for was logging in then then putting something heavy on it stop the computer going to sleep. System was entirely controlled by the mouse and head office didn’t consider that 1 person might be monitoring 4-6 computers on their own for an 8 hour shift and enforced a 5 minute idle lockout on all of them.
I’ve been using silverbullet.md
Its more notes than wiki I guess so depends what you’re after.
I use audible, then download with audible-cli and decrypt with ffmpeg.
I’m running Jellyfin on 6th gen i3 and quicksync works fine.
I thought colo was your hardware in someone else’s data center.
For me though a VPS is still self hosting because you own your applications data and have control over it.
You’re less beholden to the whims of a company to change the software or cut you off. With appropriate backups you should be able to move to a new cloud provider fairly easily.
Maybe that’s normal in US but it’s way overpriced in UK. They want £75/mo and I’m paying £35 for 500Mb in a rural area and there’s several different providers to choose from. My sister is even more remote than me and they’re getting fibre this week.
I could also get unlimited 4G for about £20.
I don’t know anyone who is using starlink
Years ago now I was asked to be on call for a week, 24/7 outside working hours. I was told it would be paid. Being naive I thought I’d be paid at my normal rate.
Turns out the on call rate was based on the likelihood of being called and this project was deemed to be low, after tax I got less than £10 extra for the whole week. It was something like 14 pence an hour.
They had a whole load of restrictions on my life as well, couldn’t be more than an hour from the office, couldn’t be drunk, had to answer the phone within a minute at all times and be able to get on my laptop within 5 minutes.
Refused to do it again after that first week and they ended up having to pay a contractor £400/week instead.
So a felon can’t vote but could run for president?

That’s a cool idea for an automated offline backup. My equivalent is an external hard drive connected to a mechanical timer plug. Every day it turns on for 30 minutes, that triggers a script that mounts the drive, syncs my files, then unmounts the drive. Then the plug turns off the drive until tomorrow.
I like this better though. I’ve got an old pi1 somewhere, might have to try it.
yeah this is my dog. at the vet last week he knew something was about to happen and was absolutely not interested in cheese.
After he had his vaccines and it was all over, so much more relaxed, would eat cheese again.
