Oh I didn’t thing about access points. With something like ZigBee, the switches add to the network range. But for WiFi, each switch will need to be in range of an access point. We have pretty decent coverage but the benefit of using ZigBee is other devices can take advantage of the extended network.

Others have talked about Zwave, I’m not sure which camp they sit in.

Interestingly. I was a bit worried about adding dozens of new WiFi devices but it sounds like it’s not an issue so I will consider the WiFi switches after all.

Sweet, I was a bit wary of WiFi switches but maybe I’ll consider them after all

I was under the impression that WiFi could only handle so many devices connected. 20 years ago if you got more than 10 or 20 some would start getting kicked off. Maybe that was my short router. Is that never an issue with modern routers? Even adding hundreds?

How do WiFi switches do when you have a lot? Is it an issue to put in 50 WiFi switches, wouldn’t that overload the network?

Calculator?

I never knew about it until now and I’ve used GIMP often enough, but if I was going to assign a keyboard shortcut, that makes sense. Ctrl +A select all. Ctrl + Shift + A select none.

Shift is the oppositer (reverser?). Tab goes to next field, Shift + Tab goes in reverse order. Ctrl + T open new tab in browser, Ctrl + Shift + T reopen last closed tab - OK that’s not exactly opposite but close enough.

DNS is when your browser asks where to find a website. You enter Lemmy.One in your browser, and your browser asks the DNS resolver the address of the computer the website is hosted on.

Most people will use their internet company’s DNS, and it sounds like France ordered these companies to block some illegal streaming sites by having the DNS server point to a page saying it’s blocked instead of to the website server.

More technical users changed their settings to get DNS from google, Cloudflare, etc instead of the internet company, so now France is going to make those companies block the sites too.

Ah yes, Lore does have super human strength.

Ah yes, thanks, edited. Using a new keyboard and the autocorrect is still learning.

You already have Jellyfin, maybe test out adding a music library and using Finamp or Fintunes to access it?

I think it’s like this: if your game is not on Steam, you won’t sell many copies. Publishers fight to make sure the game is on Steam.

If your movie isn’t on Steam, the company doesn’t care. No one goes to Steam for movies. So Valve has to fight to get the rights to distribute (and compete with streaming services).

Isn’t that an argument for the existence of this post? Many don’t know this, well, now they do.

Hmm maybe I’ll check on it in 5 years. Cos holly hell that price! Priced like a AAA game.

Is Kerbal Space Program 2 worth playing for someone who had fun with but was bad at 1?

Reviews are - not good.

I don’t know what premium board games normally cost but holly hell, now I really want yo play it! But I don’t really want to spend that much 😅. I guess I can take out a mortgage.

Doesn’t entry level basically mean “what’s the cheapest you can get, while still being worth getting”?

What proportion of the bots were fediverse servers syncing with each other?

I have minor beef with Immich and basically any larger project and the way they go about their Docker Compose. Basically I feel they make the assumption that they’re the only thing running.

^Disclaimer: I fully accept this is all just me being too stupid and not the Immich development team.

This might be my turn to be too stupid but isn’t the point of docker that they all run in containers so it doesn’t matter? They can all use the same database port, because the database is in a container and so doesn’t prevent another database container using the same port. The port doesn’t need to be exposed to the host.

The only issue that comes up when running lots of services is accessing them all over http, and that’s what a reverse proxy is for. I run a dozen services on the same machine, mostly using the default docker compose files, and never have to mess with things like you have here.

I played through DREDGE, which was a cool little indie game. I also played through the DLC The Pale Reach, which added another short side story.
