Thanks this is really interesting. Literally hadn’t heard of this before.

Can you explain this? Never heard of it.

Just to be clear, what was discontinued was the official gui app.

Binaries are still updated and developed. The other gui app, syncthing-fork, still exists.

This is absolutely not the case.

Lol OK bud. 👍

The entirety of the OP is extending their experience of an hour or two in their own home (which is probably untrue) into:

Kids these days

Residents are expected

It’s the children who are wrong

From the OP:

Upon re-reading, the whole thing sounds like satire.

I took my kids trick or treating and didn’t observe anything like what you’re describing. Pretty sure you made this up. Congrats on the internet points though!

Looks like you already settled on this, but I’m doing exactly this (syncing obsidian, as well as photos/videos from camera reel), to desktop and NAS, using syncthing-fork. Let me know if you want some pointers.

Came here to suggest looking at rewasd

Yeah but without your comment I wouldn’t have posted mine!

Eh… it’s not that we’re trying to create meaning in the face of the absurd. The absurd is is the condition arising from the contrast between a human need for order and meaning on one side, and a lack of order and meaning (or lack of ability to grasp the order and meaning) on the other… and it’s this absurdity that defines the human condition. And we should embrace it.

Honestly someone who spends their whole life searching for a universal morality could very well be embracing absurdism as well.

I also feel that the positivity surrounding absurdity comes from the fact that the absurd is the struggle (roughly between a desire and search for order and meaning) and the struggle is the human condition. And once you think about the struggle-not as something to overcome or win-but as the basic defining characteristic of humanity… you start to view the whole thing positively.

Kinda, but also the core of the absurdity is the contrast between the human need for meaning and order - and the inherent inability to find and create it ultimately. And as an added flavor, this absurdity is the main definition of the human condition. It’s not exactly enjoying pseudo-meanings. It’s enjoying the absurdity.

Recommend: the myth of sisyphus by camus. I believe you can find a full pdf of it online on some university website or another.

CPU and RAM are not the only limiting factors. Not only that but not everything runs multithreaded. Maybe some piece of the puzzle is not multithreaded and is using all it can from a single core (assuming that cpu is multi- core)

Depending on how much you value your time, you’re almost certainly better off getting a new machine to run pfsense.

I have found synching to be very useful for making copies of files across devices. I have it setup to mirror photos from my phone, photos from my wife’s phone, and various other things (to-do lists for todo.txt, notes and shopping lists for obsidian… stuff like that) back to my desktop and my NAS. You can set it to do one-way sync (which is more like a backup) or two way sync (where changes anywhere are propagated to everywhere else).

As others have said, it’s not really a true backup solution, but handy to have immediately accessible copies of what’s on your phone in case of phone loss or damage.

For photo viewing and sharing, I am more or less pointing the photo sharing app on my NAS to the photos I sync from phone. They all get dropped into an “inbox” when first synced and then can be organized from there.

You may also want an actual backup solution. There are quite a few and that’s a different topic. The reason I bring it up, though, is that simply mirroring what’s currently on device is not considered a real backup by most people, and for good reason.

“Sorry, disc must be scratched”

Yes that’s a concern with all of them, Apple TV included.

That’s what I’m using now and I like it.

Not sure if it’s a factor for you but roku tries to phone home a lot more than anything else on my network (or perhaps my firewall just catches it more than other devices and apps). Otherwise roku is pretty good.

Nvidia shield tv is better though. It’s the best set top box. Made even better by replacing the default launcher/ home screen (android TV default launcher now has 2/3 or more of the screen taken up by ads or “recommended content” which is just ads).

Big.
