I’d like to subscribe to your newsletter.

I would suggest instead looking into the deployment via the very thorough system here:

https://github.com/spantaleev/matrix-docker-ansible-deploy

It may seem a little overwhelming at first due to the large list of options, but underneath it boils down to some simple variables in a file. Once complete, you can then add/remove components merely with a small edit and redeploy.

I’ve been using this for about a year, after manually doing the systems for Element and Synapse for a few years before that and HATING how kludgy things seemed.

Once on the Ansible deploy from above, features just work. It’s been a night vs day difference without trying to convince you to pay money any time you go into an interface.

My few users (about 2 dozen) regularly do group calls via the newer Element Call stuff (RTC) and even with a high-latency connection from one of the users using satellite internet, things work smoothly.

XMPP / Snikket might be a better fit for your needs, but I wanted to make sure you had a chance to try out the better solution for implementing Synapse (or other Matrix servers!) before just judging by the problematic corporate deployment.

Nice!

Watch out for CPU and RAM gobbling… Jitsi’s GC process can make your video streams go sideways fast if you bottleneck it too much.

And even if things seem smooth, make sure you have SWAP space enabled somewhere! the JVM will murder your system before you know anything is wrong, and SWAP allows the kernel to compensate long enough to at least cry for help.

I still have a fully maxed out 68040 with the dimension board and display, long with the grey screen.

Everything for it except the printer (crap anyway) and the floptical (heads rotted and cap damage).

Love that machine despite shortcomings.

I’m probably going to swap in a bluescsi or similar here shortly to get something better than the Fireball drive I put in around 2002. Need to check the caps on the boards too for leakage.

This is so great. Thank you for sharing this!

What!

This holds true, including the REDACTED

My personal experience in this was a personalized take on how my sexuality could be shaken and my adoration won from my partner.

Lemme just say…

Swoon

Yep, agree with all this.

It doesn’t detract from the fact that not hiring is still a cause for the situation deteriorating. Some of the businesses are using AI as the vehicle to refuse hiring while yelling about nobody wanting to work.

ultimately, AI is just another tool in this case for the rich to continue enriching while maximizing profit.

I hate it.

that’s a great notion, but in the process real roles that ARE needed are empty until someone realizes the mistake, or until people die.

This sounds like overreaction, but what about for EMS services? 911 operations? Emergency room staffing? Nursing? Hospital IT staff?

Having open positions, or even just insufficiently filled hours, will cause situations where there are huge ramifications.

Just because someone isn’t hired, doesn’t mean the role isn’t critical and needed… it means there’s consequences if the need is unfilled. There’s dozens (or more!) of medical professionals needed desperately that aren’t being hired, ultimately due to greed (those driving the AI process here) and this results in worse care.

Fun fact! The Laser in the burner didn’t actually burn from thermal effects, and instead caused a chemical reaction using specific wavelengths of light to activate a substrate called pthalocyanine.

This is part of why you could burn “faster”, although typically you had a higher quality burn at slower speeds as the change from one color to another via the chemical effects was more complete. This allowed weaker reading lenses to better perceive the new colors easier, and greatly increased compatibility.

I am very, very old.

I welcome getting more charging options into the wild… hopefully this will provide some (if only minimal for now) progress in transitioning from fossil to EV for the larger communities.

I can’t afford an EV yet, but the more adoption happens, the sooner I can get one.
