It seems that I can build most of the #OpenWrt #toolchain on #FreeBSD with a few hacks.

The filesystem utilities (mtd-utils, e2fsprogs etc) are not necessary for my purposes, so I don't mind too much right now.

It would be awesome if anyone else interested in this could reach out to me for exchange.

Please #boost, thanks! :)

If you tell me not to use an adblocker on your website I will infact use my adblocker to block that element because I hate adverts to my core and I would block every advert ever if I could.

#conversations, the #android #xmpp messenger now supports Audio/Video calls. so we've written a new article on the homebrewserver.club on how to set up server-side support:

Angenommen ich möchte meinen Heimserver weitestgehend via Solar versorgen.

Wie geht man da am besten vor?

Dachfläche wäre genügend vorhanden Richtung SO und Richtung NW.

Will man den Strom direkt in den Server hauen, oder einspeisen?

Mit was für Kosten muss man rechnen? Panels, Akkus, Konverter,... Ka was man da alles braucht...

Vielleicht sind ja Bastelfreunde unter euch, die mir eine grobe Übersicht verschaffen können.

Time is immense.

Human civilisations have existed for 8000 years, our species has existed for 200000 years, and our earliest ancestors evolved 2.5 million years ago.

Our planet condensed just after the Sun formed 4.5 billion years ago, in our Universe, now 13.8 billion years old. The Universe will continue to form more stars just like the Sun for 100 trillion more years.

When you look at it that way, it’s pretty easy to justify staying in bed for another hour.

Gibt es eigentlich irgendeine gute Open-Source-Geschichte, um Vereinsmitglieder, Mitgliedsbeiträge und so zu managen?

Habe eine PCI Schnittstellenkarte Seriell 2x und eine PCIe Karte 2xUSB 3.0 beim Ausmisten gefunden. Falls jemand Verwendung dafür hat, PM an mich, sind zu verschenken.

Ohio launched a website where employers can report workers who refuse to work during the coronavirus pandemic.

So this hacker made a script that fills the website with junk data in an attempt to make it useless.

Did you know that #Zoom uses #XMPP for their chat? Isn't it ironic that while large parts of the software freedom movement consider XMPP as outdated and refuse to use it, companies building commercially successful proprietary and centralized solutions on top of it... 🤔 #OpenStandards #FreeSoftware

#briar is a messaging app designed for activists, journalists, and anyone else who needs a safe, easy and robust way to communicate.
#introduction

Unlike traditional messaging apps, Briar doesn’t rely on a central server - messages are synchronized directly between the users’ devices. If the internet’s down, Briar can sync via Bluetooth or Wi-Fi... If the internet’s up, Briar can sync via the Tor network, protecting users and their relationships from surveillance.
