Anybody can sue anyone for any reason. Doesn’t mean they’ll win. It depends on who is willing to spend the most money.

Walmart sells the onn android tv sticks for $15 you can customize them and change the font end so that it’s just a few apps that are easy to navigate to.

In the past the issue has been limited storage for newer versions and possibly ram. It should list those specs on the open wrt site.

I run dullsters.net which is sort of a single user instance. Nobody else can make accounts it’s strictly for one community.

I wouldn’t equate installing proxmox on an old pc to open heart surgery. It’s pretty basic stuff and you can follow guides on how to install services in a container or vm. People are interested in things like pihole, home assistant, arr stacks, nas, and better control over their network. It’s definitely not rocket surgery.

You could use a math trade software. Instead of putting in items just have everyone select each other’s names. Or you could just do a math trade where everyone enters an item and then everything gets randomly traded somewhat like a white elephant but anonymized.

The service is tftpd-hpa on Ubuntu. I did get 10.10.10.3 to work by putting :69 at the end 0.0.0.0 accepts all ip addresses attempting to connect to the server, not secure, but fine for a one off like this. I still can’t get the thing to connect to the server, but I did something at least.

I was correct that it is a networking error
cannot bind to local IPv4 socket: Cannot assign requested address

current ifconfig says:

enp7s0: flags=4163<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 inet 169.254.210.0 netmask 255.255.0.0 broadcast 169.254.255.255 inet6 fe80::9a40:bbff:fe28:459b prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x20<link> ether 98:40:bb:28:45:9b txqueuelen 1000 (Ethernet) RX packets 15 bytes 900 (900.0 B) RX errors 0 dropped 0 overruns 0 frame 0 TX packets 1466 bytes 492951 (492.9 KB) TX errors 0 dropped 78 overruns 0 carrier 0 collisions 0

This is the guide I used, it’s pretty automatic with ansible.

I’m not too worried about it.

It costs me less than $10/mo to run mine and some of that is because I have to pay for an email forwarder until my hosting provider lets me start sending emails, part of that is factoring the cost of the domain name. The actual cloud server costs $5/mo right now.

The best idea I can come up with is a federated marketplace. Each vendor has their own instance. Buyers can browse the marketplace and have a unified checkout experience. Vendors would have unified product posts so whichever vendor has the best price or fastest shipping (user preference) would get the sale. USPS for example has shipping zones which determine the price for shipping depending on distance.

The best example I can come up with is rockauto. They are a central marketplace of different auto parts suppliers. You can find parts that are in the same location in order to combine shipping.

If you put a part in your cart it will then show parts that are in the same warehouse.

Bittorrent is federated streaming video before it was cool.

If you have a network of paricipating stores, then they can agree to take each others physical returns and inspect them.

Thanks, that makes sense.

Either way the content will go onto their server because of federation. It eliminates some workload from those admins if the small instance is actively modderating.

The point is more federation, not less. Decentralizing prevents any big rifts in the fediverse from fracturing the community.
