Similar to atzanteol's reply, I appreciate the thoughtfulness you put in to this. Our use case is luckily not so severe as needing reminders for important tasks (medication, eating, etc)... yet. A dumb clock would almost meet our needs, save for the desire to leave notes about our interactions (remembering when we last talked/saw each other is the major stressor).

I appreciate the thoughtfulness. I'm not dead set on self hosting - I figured that the relatively simple functionality might already exist in some tools. The client side of the solution would involve no interaction which is why I considered the self hosting route. If the server goes down, as long is it continues to display the time/date/last know notes/messages without any intervention then it would meet our needs. A dashboard tool that runs some elements independently and queries a server for updates on occasion.

I did find MagicMirror, which looks like it could be set up with an SBC connected to a monitor. I haven't yet had time to dig in to its workings to see if would meet the offline/online requirements.

I also found calendarclock.app which, while not self hosted, is purpose built for this scenario and would allow the recycling of existing hardware.

That's an interesting thought. Thank you, I'll toy around with that.

Legally? 🤔

Or do you mean to say that a VPN isn't strictly required?

I would read news with bukkake as a verb in the title.

I believe this is old information and any restrictions around serving none HTML content has been removed from their terms of service related to cloud flare tunnels.

I came to explore Lemmy with the migration after Reddit's API changes. Baconreader was my app of choice, and it died with the change.

I didn't have any anger against Reddit - there was no righteous "fuck you!" in my actions - but the reason I stayed on Lemmy and very rarely touch Reddit is because the concept of the fediverse really speaks to me. I want to see a more decentralized internet succeed and so that is where I will spend my time, niche as it is.

From 2020 I planned on building a new gaming PC. Bought an ITX case and followed hardware releases closely... And then got disillusioned with it all.

Picked up a Steam Deck in August of 2022 and couldn't be happier with it. The ITX case is collecting dust.

How is Stripe associated with Substack? (I'm out of the loop here)
