@jerrimu A usability suggestion, having just tried it out - save the username and room password in the export file to make it more like a traditional chat experience. So when you import the chat file, the username and password are pre-populated along with the room name.

City streets are _not_ specifically for cars. Freeways aren't even specifically for cars (buses, trucks), but city streets in particular are definitely not just for cars.
Tree roots are a solved problem. Lots of city master plans and similar documents have a list of trees allowed in the public right-of-way that have root systems compatible with sidewalks and roads. Some trees have roots that buckle concrete, others have roots that don't. Choose wisely.
@ECEC Good lord the number of replies here from people whose brains have been destroyed by "planners"...
- Trees lower the urban heat island effect.
- There's plenty of room for trees in dense places, so long as "density" means efficient housing and efficient transportation rather than parking lots and stroads and single-family homes.
- Someone said "trees require maintenance", as if asphalt & pretty much everything doesn't require maintenance?
- Trees harm cars. But cars harm cars too!
@claralistensprechen5th @ECEC Sounds like the problem is cars, not trees.
@ItJustDonn @486 Hang on, this runs chromium as root? That seems like a _really_ bad idea. And unnecessary, since there's a hoarder user installed later in the script...

@sxan @shortrounddev jmp.chat uses XMPP, and it's a very viable replacement for Google Voice (and generic SIP options like voip.ms), so that's what got me back on the XMPP train. No one else other than my family is using it with me, though, but it's still nice to have SMS, (encrypted & decentralized) family chat, and IRC (via biboumi bridge) in one desktop client.
@cm0002 @aberrate_junior_beatnik That looks like a 15A receptacle (https://www.icrfq.net/15-amp-vs-20-amp-outlet/). If it was installed on a 20A circuit (with a 20A breaker and wiring sized for 20A), then the receptacle was the weak point. Electricians often do this with multiple 15A receptacles wired together for Reasons (https://diy.stackexchange.com/questions/12763/why-is-it-safe-to-use-15-a-receptacles-on-a-20-a-circuit) that I disagree with for exactly what your picture shows. That said, overloading it is not SUPER likely to cause a fire - just destroy the outlet and appliance plugs.
@semperverus @possiblylinux127 No, this other person has a working 'e' key on their keyboard.
@wildbus8979 @Bahnd Yeah, XMPP checks all the boxes. That said, I don't know how well encrypted group chats (MUC) work with various clients.
Also, while message contents are encrypted, metadata is not. Self-hosting ameliorates that, but if your "self-hosting" involves a VPS or whatever hosted by a giant corporation, then that's something to be aware of.
@synapse1278 I recently bought a used 8tb drive off ebay for $45. Manufacturing date on the drive was 2016, but Power_On_Hours was 4 (four!). I asked the seller if they reset SMART data; his response:
"We do not reset power on hours, as we could get in a ton of trouble listing used drives as new bulk etc after altering the power on hours. This one likely was used in/for testing an array etc. "
So I'm pretty pleased with that..

@BackYardIncendiary @ProdigalFrog If you have an old latitude, newer kernels also allow you to set min/max charging thresholds. My syncthing server (and NAS and a few other things) is an old 2013/2014 dell latitude e7240. It's not the original battery, but I do keep it in decent shape via charging thresholds.
