Nah.

Honda has a much better product in the first place, their engineering approach has always been better than Nissan (I say this having worked on every major brand, and some unknowns).

Nissan is one of the better ones, but they’re still a big step away from Honda.

And Honda was working on hydrogen nearly 30 years ago now, which seems poised to suplant batteries (again, maybe).

Which is why adding Tailscale to this KVM is a killer solution

Excellent, thanks for the link!

I like your thoughts on runtime and recharge time.

That four hour limit really outs things into perspective for someone just starting out. Most people don’t understand the constraints at first.

I believe mailbox.org is all renewable, and I’m pretty sure it’s solar.

But you need a massive battery bank to run stuff, batteries have a limited lifespan (especially the crap used in a UPS).

It’s not cheap, you generally want to overbuild everything, and there are ongoing costs (hardware failures, batteries, etc).

But it can be done. Just have to do the math for your max power draw, then how much uptime you need determines the size of your battery bank and number of panels (which is influenced by how much sun you get/how consistent it is). You need enough panels to run your system and charge batteries, given the limitations of sun availability.

Wow, install Tailscale or Wireguard and you’ve got a killer remote support solution.

Weird people would downvote this. I usually don’t care (still don’t, lol) but someone downvoted the idea of installing a mesh VPN on this KVM, yet it’s already been done.

Immodium/Limodil is your friend.

My grandmother said the same when I showed her a Motorola Droid in 2009. She said “that’s a pocket computer”.

Lol

Plus the final mile from the rail to destination.

Hahahaha, I heard the song immediately

Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

Drives me crazy that accounting software is SAAS. The last thing I want is my business accounting on someone else’s systems, regardless of how encrypted, backed up, etc.

Just look at the recent large company whose entire business data set was deleted by Google. If it were a small mom n pop, they’d be out of business before Google even responded.

I swear I see a business opportunity as an IT consulting service that implements nothing but local solutions.

I also don’t agree that we don’t know what it [consciousness] is.

… most can’t agree on how to define it.

Which is it?

It’s as if any play is for a given audience, and we have to bridge the gap with our own imagination. Crazy, right? 😆

Mind, I’m not criticizing your point, I agree with it, Hollywood has never been great with accents, it just has to be “good enough”, like watching a stage play and the props have to be “good enough”.

He stole it from Highlander!

I’m not sure I follow? His character is Egyptian, he was immortal. Though I take OP’s point, he couldn’t really be Scottish since he had been alive long before Scotland existed, possibly before the Picts even.

1999 - DSL After that, cable was pretty much everywhere I lived.

I recently switched my cell service to JMP.chat, which pipes your SMS into XMPP (it’s brilliant, SMS is no longer tied to a physical device or SIM). I still get spam sms, but it’s far less an issue.

Plus I can pop any Sim into my phone and it has no affect on my phone number that’s with JMP. That all remains in XMPP, and the new SIM would just provide a different data connection (and it’s own number with its own voice and SMS).

Have you ever used Yet Another Call Blocker?

I’m curious how it compares to Carrion (I’m not sure they’re directly comparable, looks like Carrion does a little more than YACB).

I’ve used YACB for years, just to keep my phone from ringing for unknown calls, and only allow contacts to ring through.
