What do the people in the development want? Surely you have meetings that people attend.

Go meet them, talk to them in person, find out what they want. Knock on doors if you have to.

Find out what other community groups do that’s successful. Or what this org has done in the past that’s been successful.

Discord might be fun for you, but you’re not doing it for you, you need to meet them where they are.

Use sites that don’t care about age laws. Plenty of niche ones out there.

But admitting you have a problem is the first step to recovery, proud of you.

And as you might guess from the actual title, this is about user-to-user messages. I’m not sure how useful this is, because a thoroughly secure implementation is unlikely. A server operator could easily MITM your messages, if you don’t establish trust through a separate trusted channel.

“Is Pepsi okay?”

They want to kill privacy for you. Their privacy is a matter of national security.

Are you running on port 6881? Pick a random one above 10000 and see if it changes.

What about other traffic?

It’s still tolerably warm, and there are no other kettles that would be worth switching to right now. I use Firefox and if it ever popped an AI feature at me, I turned it off a long time ago and haven’t thought about it since.

If I go to its web interface (because everything is a web interface) and it’s down, then I know it has a problem.

I could set up monitoring, but I wouldn’t care enough to fix it until I had free time to use it either.

Sometimes I’ll bring a keyboard and monitor to the PC, instead of bringing the PC to the monitor. Otherwise I just suck it up. I can’t justify the cost of a pikvm or drop-in ipmi.

It’s probably a typo for replication

You can’t send them to surplus auction?

They definitely have. The smaller form factor is better for laptops, and if you can share parts between laptop and desktop it’s cheaper.

M.2 is just a connector, you can run SATA over M.2. But you’re right, freeing up 2.5" production for M.2 should reduce price pressure.

Someone is executing something on a schedule. No way to tell what or why.

It’s the Internet. People send random garbage everywhere, all the time. You have a firewall, block everything you’re not explicitly expecting, move on with your life.

Why not internet radio on your phone, using the same streams?

Depends on what you’re using as a platform. You should use something that integrates with it, like proxmox PVE and PBS
