My favorite is https://solarham.net/
Unfortunately, I have no idea how to understand what any of it means. But it's pretty much all the raw data you could want on solar activity.
I'm also skeptical.
That article is dated yesterday as well, so an even earlier prediction.
I've checked https://www.swpc.noaa.gov/products/forecast-discussion and it looks to be saying it should remain relatively quiet into mid next week.
Maybe there will be something - but my usual sources are currently all pointing to "meh"
The FDA is being asked to look into Logan Paul's energy drink, which has the caffeine of 6 Coke cans
I'm conflicted on this.
The adult side of me wants to have this info on labels/menus so I can make informed choices.
The side of my that used to be in high school knows that kids will buy the highest number for bragging rights among friends.
Biggest cost then would be electric. Older PC, probably...70 watts. So about 600kWh/year. Maybe about between $60-$150 per year.
Much cheaper than any hosting I know and bandwidth costs are absorbed into your monthly bill.
The real risk would be hardware failure. Hopefully you'll have backups or a user base that won't care if the instance goes offline for quite a while.
There's also a risk of unexpected security vulnerabilities letting an attacker compromise your public facing machine to get into your home network if you don't have it physically firewalled off.
Personally, I'll just let someone else deal with all the hosting issues. I'd rather donate if they requested than deal with all of that indefinitely.
One concern I have with these things is that device can be built in a way where the batteries can be replaced, but there may not be any batteries available for the device when it's old enough to require a new one.
Standardized batteries could really help with that, but with small devices often the batteries are custom built.
This is a nightmare scenario.
It's bad enough when you get something cloud connected and the company disappears, leaving you with expensive e-waste.
Now it's in your body and you likely have to pay to remove it (plus surgery risks) or leave it there knowing no one will help cover costs if there are complications from it.

I personally think it's best to keep 2FA keys out of password managers.
The whole point of 2FA is to have a seconds factor to authenticate you.
If someone gets access to your password vault with your 2FA keys, they have access to all of your accounts - 2FA protected it not. If you keep the keys in another app, they cannot access your accounts nearly as easily.
Hrm - would you want federated wikis? What's the benefit vs wikis run independently?
For example, wikipedia has a corner on encyclopedia type knowledge. No reason to federate as the central moderation on Wikipedia seems to work well. To be honest, I wouldn't trust encyclopedia type information from another wiki site as I don't know how active the community is there to maintain the accuracy of the information.
Then there's other wikis I know about like for games (thinking fandom.com) - but again not really a reason to federate between those that I can think of.
To be honest, my gut reaction is that I want fewer wiki sources, not more.

Ok but to balance it: it forces you to confront your own on the topic as well.
That would force you to selectively use it since often times reality is somewhere between our personal view of it and other opposing views.
Chose the wrong situation and you'll both be crying in the corner with shatter worlds. Chose the ones where the people are truly disconnected from reality and perhaps you'll change their lives - hopefully for the better.
