Cue the ‘too the moon’ rocket but with the btc logo removed and the Fediverse icon added.

If you need ones that don’t have a high self discharge then yes. The black ones (pro) have a higher capacity but will self discharge in a few months.

As far as I can tell. It tells me my profile and anything I post is restricted, never see any replies. I guess an AI moderator got upset.

Thanks.

Socal or social?

On Voyager, one is a mailto link hehe.

I remember my start and immediate end on Bluesky. Got banned for saying the white ones were better. I was discussing Eneloop batteries!

What is it? Looks like badass something but the Voyager app doesn’t scroll it.

A smart switch that turns off the power when the battery hits 80% and turns it on at 78%? Dunno if that would actually work.

It’ll probably work. Biggest issue will be recovery after power failure as laptops generally stay off.

Next most likely is CPU fan failure, exacerbated if CPU usage causes the fans to run high and nobody is there to blow the dust out.

Other than that I’ve had multiple laptops that run as servers over the years and generally they’re fine. Streaming audio for our community radio station, or shoved behind wall mounted TV’s for updateable PowerPoint displays.

Great :)

Tubular is an ad free YouTube app with Sponsorblock included.

I wish tubular would get on there.

Mine started working again :)

I can’t log in now on Android. Could last night. Guess it’s growing pains.

I still use it for the various buy swap sell and town info groups. It’s a handy place to keep up to date with what’s happening in small towns. As a result, the sponsored content isn’t in the way much.

If I tap your testicles is something supposed to happen?

It’s top of ‘hot’ on Voyager via Lemmy.world now.

Righto :)

I was thinking of usb3 hard drives. No need for internal storage if using spinning rust.

On older laptops with optical drives you can sometimes replace the drive with a sata tray and add a second drive that way.

But yes, a server that looks like a server and can recover after power loss is useful.

A cheap laptop might also be worth considering? Built in UPS that way, and sometimes UPSes have a large standby power usage. Would support a couple of bus powered drives as well.

Main drawback is no recovery if the battery drains fully.

I don’t think I’ll ever take off while it’s called Lemmy. It’s just not a word that sounds ‘good’ in my opinion.

I don’t think mbin existed at that time. For a long time I was on kbin on desktop and Artemis on Android. Artemis kinda evaporated, and eventually I settled on Voyager, which meant I needed a lemmy.world amount. I still used kbin on desktop but it became less and less reliable.
