I run this server
I would say that for just file sync nextcloud is over kill, but I have invested a lot of time into getting my nextcloud install rock solid. Upgrades are painless and am about to move it to a new host.
So use it for file sync, including backups from things. Calendar & contact sync, RSS reader, kanboard, photo sync and more.
can recommend Nextcloud, we have used it as we cant move PID outside of the UK. Also there is a Nextcloud all in one setup that will get you a fully working Files/Office/whiteboard suite
I do this too, with Pi Hole as well.
I once got smoked trout as a Christmas bonus, the year before that a 250g bag of coffee.
Now I work for a company that looks after it’s employees, we had pizza like 3 times just before Christmas. One order was for about 50 pizzas for about 80 staff
I can recomment OVH for domains and DNS hosting, I use them and have not had any issues setting up custom DNS records. Also they have an API that will allow you to get certificates with certbot and lets encrypt, even a wildcard.
no, its based on kodi. but there are themes you could try
have a look at OSMC, you write it to the Pi SD card and it gives you Kodi all setup and ready use. you can even use your TV remote to control it
great job, I didnt go the self install route.But used HASSOS. The best thing I have had with HA is setting up a broadlink socket, the app could not connect. Turns out HA has seen them an linked up, blocking the app
Yes, that’s the badger. They have a vast amount of built-in functions, also can be all local. I was using mqtt to access mine, but have switched to the home assistant integration
You could have a look at a shelly 1L that might do it, put the shelly in the light fitting and wire the switches in to it
Have also updated, seemed to be broke. But a restart seems to have fixed it, no change to config needed
this is a command I use to get the local weather
/usr/bin/curl -s \
--form-string "monospace=1" \
--form-string "token=YOURTOKENHERE" \
--form-string "user=YOUR USERID" \
--form-string "title=$(/usr/bin/curl -sk wttr.in/melksham | grep "Weather report")" \
--form-string "message=$(/usr/bin/curl -sk curl wttr.in/melksham?0ATQF)" \

me too, pushover for the win
Windows subsystem for Linux, before they did that thing with Ubuntu.
I had to VPN to a server, then RDP to another server and then a webby RDP to a server with WSL to run a java command line web application. It was the most descusting thing I have ever done
Shudders in WSL!
I had to use that when I supported windows servers running WSL many years ago, did not like it want to use it
I use nextcloud for a lot of stuff, so added the news app. In that I have a lot of GitHub repos I want to know get updated and things like the register and BBC news UK.
Edit: that also have a mobile app for just the RSS feeds
Can confirm that nextcloud photo back is for the most part rock solid, they have had some issues when Android changes something and that mess up the process.
But I took have been running it for years, of your nextcloud install is ropey then your photo sync will be.
Looks like this
We’ve been using brown paper for our kids for a long time, and yes that’s a wax seal
Would concur, that was the only thing I could find.
