Something is wrong with the link or website.

The idea as a PoC is not bad, but it would probably make more sense to use an open standard like GNU Taler for it and only do the data transmission over Meshtastic.

Nice to hear that they started operations now.

I found this bit interesting:

The Geretsried project will ultimately provide, in annual terms, 8.2 megawatts of electricity to the grid or about 64 megawatts of heating to the nearby town.

Emphasis mine... so I would guess they focus on electricity production during the summer months?

Such a close loop system has a bit of a low-grade waste heat problem during summer months though, even when using it to produce electricity. I guess we will see more heated public outdoor swimming pools again if this technology takes off.

Eh, we are talking about DHH, a really shitty company CEO, multi-millionaire, and open white supremist. He is very much part of "the man" and worth fighting.

Yeah, that is a pretty realistic assessment, and the author should definitely try out Snikket (XMPP). There are also somewhat decent bridges for xmpp via https://slidge.im/

You could enable Suricata on OPNsense, which will allow you to subscribe to some known attacker lists and so one. But the problem these days are mostly AI scrapers that usually don't show up on these lists as they are not attackers per se, but just cause a lot of database load by repeatably probing every part of your web-applications.

Starts a bit slow, but worth it in the end 👍

I played it in online multiplayer with some friends a few times. It has gamepad support, but I didn't check if it has splitscreen multiplayer.

It somewhat decreases the efficiency... basically like dirty panels.

The sideload APK think might have been speculation, or do you have a video with a Valve employee saying so? It could certainly work with Waydroid and some tinkering, but probably not for Android VR games that AFAIK depend on some proprietary Meta stuff most of the time.

So uh, ahem.

Yes.

Valve can indeed count to three.

No, the Steam Controller doesn't fully count. This is 2.5 at best.

And see how the Steam Frame only has two screens and not three?

No, they could compile Steam for native ARM and launch the x86 games via FEX from within.

Remains to be seen which way they go, but I see no big reason why they would not do that.
