That looks good, I guess with the inverter it is only monitoring. The Heat Pump one looked good too but I would probably like to be able to manage not just monitor.

How easy did you find setup?

[–] Squizzy@lemmy.world 1 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

Do docker files handle all the setup of these or do I have to learn stuff?

[–] Squizzy@lemmy.world 2 points 5 hours ago

Been there. Some of biggestlaughs were onthat site. /r/startrek mod got me,fuckin loser.

Yeah, I am having trouble grasping what is integration, app or accessible. I am dreading buying something big only for it to not connect.

[–] Squizzy@lemmy.world 1 points 5 hours ago (2 children)

Goodwe is what has been fitted but the app is neutered and I dont have admin on my unit which is BS. I was looking at others and they have integrations but, is there anything that means I have access forever or could it always be taken away?

I aim to have nothing online, only feeding to HA and tunnell into that from two phones.

Europe is done with American Big Tech. Well, sort of. Since the start of President Donald Trump’s chaotic second administration last year, concerned governments and companies across the continent have accelerated plans to end their near-total reliance on technology from US firms.

Alongside political declarations, home-grown European tech development, and millions in additional funding, a WIRED analysis has documented dozens of public instances of companies, governments, NGOs, and education establishments stepping away from US technology companies in favor of open source or local alternatives. It is likely the tip of the iceberg.

“The aggressive policies by the Trump administration, attacking international law, as well as the EU and democratic principles, has led to several wake-up calls,” says Marietje Schaake, a non-resident fellow at Stanford University’s Cyber Policy Center and a former member of the European Parliament.

The moves are widespread—and growing. Last week, the European Commission launched its official long-term plans to rely less on US technology. The European Parliament has switched the default search engine on its devices from Google to the French alternative Qwant. Thousands of workers in the French government are using its own open-source office software—dubbed LaSuite—as officials aim to “break free” from dependence on American tech firms. An open-source documents offering from more than a dozen European tech companies, called Euro-Office, is due to launch imminently. Cities across the Netherlands, France, and Germany are all moving away from Microsoft Office and Google Docs

It’s not just productivity software, either. The Dutch government is moving its code away from Microsoft-owned Github to its own repository. In a series of decisions, Finland reportedly decided not to move its election data to Amazon’s cloud services, while the organization behind Belgium’s .be top-level domain has said it will move away from AWS. Meanwhile, Eurosky has been spun up as an interoperable alternative to Bluesky on the AT Protocol that underlies both social networks.

WIRED gathered the publicly known instances of European entities abandoning US-based Big Tech. (Click the arrows to scroll the timeline of instances below, or view them in this Google Sheet or a Proton Sheet).

While many of the “digital sovereignty” plans were in place before the start of Trump’s second term, often cited as urgently driving the change is the fallout from US sanctions against officials linked to the International Criminal Court. (The court itself ended up moving away from Microsoft’s technology).

The long list of Europe’s other concerns includes governments and companies not being in control of their own data; changing international relationships; dependence on tech from a small number of companies; potential access to data under the US CLOUD Act and FISA; and the closer-than-ever relationships between Big Tech firms and the Trump administration. “Citizens, companies, and organizations are energized to take their digital future into their own hands,” Schaake says. “Untangled from billionaire interests as well as Trump’s policies.”

Despite the enthusiasm, entirely unpicking Europe’s connections to US technology is probably an impossible task. “US-based firms continue to dominate almost every layer of Europe’s digital stack,” one recent European Parliament report says. From cloud computing and artificial intelligence firms to cybersecurity and mobile operating systems, Europe—and much of the world—is deeply intertwined with US-based technology firms. The moves in Europe also risk inflaming already delicate relationships with officials in the Trump administration, who have criticized Europe’s strict digital technology laws.

However, despite this, the shift in Europe is underway. As a minister in the German state of Bavaria recently said: “We no longer have time to cheaply discuss the importance of digital sovereignty—given the geopolitical situation, we need to get from talking to doing.”

 

Am I looking for a standard, accessible API, commitment standards to access?

I have to buy into battery and inverter tech soon...before I get up to speed with HA but I want to ensure I can link them

I enjoyed mario v rabbids, this looks fun too.

The only way to intro skywalker is the same way he appeared in the first of respawns recent Jedi games. Completely unstoppable.

We all know the US is a shithole with better accents and slop output.

[–] Squizzy@lemmy.world 2 points 15 hours ago

Same, the sentiment sounds great but it left me bored.

[–] Squizzy@lemmy.world 2 points 20 hours ago

The west... the only credit score I know of is the US. Which is less west and more hell.

Its a different type of pizza, I'd grab some napoli pizzeria shit anyday and still want a dirty ff pjzza if I was hungover and eanted lots of salt and sugar.

 

The search function is a bit poor but even with a full spelling I cant find ironfox and other apps onfdroid. I have tried through droidify and obtainium also. Amy tips?

 

I bought an xbox360 years ago with a game stuck in it. I have since lost them but I enjoyed the game. It was large bulky man carrying a sword and possibly shield. I remember there was island type landscapes but I dont remember swimming or anything. Possibly there was dragons but I think I may be inventing that because of other games. It was old timey in terms of setting, castles, sand and stone. I dont remember magic.

 

I am trying to capture costs for starting into homelab/selfhosting.

VPNs, search engines, absolutely everything and anything.

 

Apple wont give gyro data but firefox will, firefox wont give battery data but chrome will. Everyone gives screen size and density data.

Why are these data points not discussed with privacy?

 

I have a syncbox with an apple box and playstation in hdmi 1&2. Usually using the apple remote turns on the apple box which them turns on the sync and tv. Starting this week, using the apple remote turns on the apple tv which turns on the sync box which turns on the playstation!

I dont know what changed, I did not change any settings.

 

Hi all! I am running some recent version of Mint. I have been away for a bit but came back and thenpc reads 0 bytes free. Ooening the directory shows tons of files in home/private/ecryptfs some as small at 12MB and some as big as 170GB.

I tried to get some info but the terminal returned nothing on them, thought it might be shit and I dont have anything precious on it so I moved to delete but was told there are no such files when I did. I tried to sudo remove but got permission denied.

At this point, realising I dont have this connected to the web, and it hasnt been switched on in months despite the files showing ages 1-6 months - I thought an aold fashioned reboot would solve but now Mint won't let me passed the password login.

It recognises incorrect passwords but correct ones give a quick flash of a black screen with a typing marker flashing and back to login.

Any direction appreciated.

 

Hi All,

I am looking at starting a project and was wondering if there was a way to make it so a controller type changed boot conditions. I want to move to linux for my home entertainment and would like to have a ps5 controller boot Lutris and a different controller boot into something like KDE plasma.

Is this a possibility or nonsense?

 

The playstore is really poorly laid out. I dont know how to leave a review anymore. Every description has the same nonsense first instead of a description. Sometimes you can select the app developer to load their page with all their apps and sometimes you can't. When did it get so bad?

I just wanted to flag an issue with an app and the review function isnt there.

 

Organisational Theory Thesis Survey

Hello, I am doing a thesis on organisational theory. I would appreciate as many responders as possible.

Survey here, shortened google forms link https://forms.gle/GqdmseDSVgdyUy7FA

 

I have to say I am not enthused but here we are. Why is nothing centralised? Calendar in outlook, calendar in teams and no specific calendar app to have open in a tab all day.

My query for now, how do I set up an out of office in my calendar. In google it was click, out of office, toggle to reject new or existing meetings and save. I try it in outlook calendar and it ooen viva insights, I do it on there and try to open the app fully but it is just stats and no out of office tab or setting.

Everything is hidden.

 

Hey! So I have always wanted to make the jump to linux and pc gaming and figured I would do them both together. I would not consider myself techy, just aout tech literate in that I am aware of how much I dont know.

I have linux mint, on a mid to late i5 w/16gb memory. I wanted initially to make a home server but I have jusy been poking around and ended up trying to play all the games I have in attic through emulators and the like.

So I got loads of emulators, I use Cartridge which is a Lutris fork. It just seemed cleaner and worked when I tried it out. In that I had been booting into PCSX2 and finally playing MK Deception again. After three evenings poking and gaming PCSX2 shuts down every time I try to boot a game.

I have uninstalled, reinstalled and changed from 1.7.xx to 2.2 to the nightly 2.3 (I think). I cannot get it to work.

I have so many questions but if I could get back to Konquest I would be so happy, and bother you all later.
