idk I just kinda don't like the idea that a device which has bluetooth inside needs a usb cable to work with also wireless usb dongles but on some other proprietary spec
just over half of a 1050 Ti in performance, on a device that's basically laptop hardware in a fairly thin, not necessarily very light, sort of "all-in-one" like an iMac but for mounting on walls instead of sitting on your desk...? :S
well, if you look at the examples in that and every other demo video, historically, professionals who sit all day working on resource-intensive stuff aren't present in these vids
I would like to get a few Android phones functioning as a SIP ATA so I can make and receive calls via SIP. I realize one could use Bluetooth to pair with something like Asterisk, but I had high hopes there might be a standalone application that would transform it into an ATA. Is there something o...
@djsmiley2k it's called a "mobile hotspot" if it just connects to a cellular subscription using a SIM card and an LTE baseband and exposes that Internet connection over wifi, USB or ethernet
a femtocell gets usually coaxial cable or fiber installed to it in a fixed configuration, and it literally transmits data on the cellular carrier's bands to any smartphones or subscribers in the area
@djsmiley2k you can call your mobile operator and ask if they can do something about it for free, then next step if they can do something about it for a little bit of money

I'd love to run Asterisk on my Raspberry Pi. Does anyone know how I could connect to the telephone network?
Obviously, PCI based cards aren't going to work.
@ThatBrazilianGuy Hey man. Your server's up, and your keys are imported
It reboots on its own now. I reinstalled entirely on ZFS root.
It has the bare minimums so far. apt, aptitude, node, npm, openssh-server, networking configured (netplan :/), and I can install docker-ce if you want.
the reason I would have to install docker-ce is that apt install docker.io gives you a 2017 version, which doesn't support some of the stuff that you need to make Synapse work under Docker or docker-compose
OH - You probably want to enable the free canonical-livepatch service, which updates the kernel live with fixes for security vulnerabilities, automatically. You'll need to make a free Ubuntu account
@ThatBrazilianGuy Wow, man! Yeah, a doubling of gas prices would tend to wreck any economy, especially if done suddenly
Why's it so high?! Venezuela is right over there, and they have oil fields.
(I know how "Venezuela" is pronounced, but I just read it as "Venna-zoola" in my head and laughed)
and you can get the latest docker from here by installing their Ubuntu PPA... I found the test version of Docker (version 18.05 - May 2018!) was the best for Synapse, at least
@ThatBrazilianGuy ok. Also, because it's zfs root, I created a ZFS snapshot of the current state of the OS without any custom software or daemons, just the basic booting system, with your SSH key added.
if you ever hose it up -really- badly, one of us can start up the iLO2 (HP branded KVM-over-IP solution), boot into a Live CD, and restore the ZFS snapshot
@allquixotic I was going to ask if it could be done but figured snapshots were only for VMs, didn't know / forgot filesystems could be snapshotted as well.
it's pretty hard for you to break the system so badly that we can't restore the snapshot, unless you delete it, or run a command that corrupts the filesystem
and ZFS is configured in RAID-1 mirror mode, so the two HDDs have identical copies of the data. Your read throughput -- especially for sequential access -- will be close to double the speed of a normal HDD
your write throughput will be a typical single HDD speed
@ThatBrazilianGuy well, the out of band restore process is a little annoying because you either need obsolete/unsupported Java, or Internet Explorer, but it's not as laborious as a total OS reinstall would be
are you going to wait to install Synapse until after June 6? if so you might want to follow the quick start to be one of the Matrix cool kids (sans homeserver) until then.
also what are you going to do about DNS? do you have a domain? want a subdomain on a domain I control?
I have posted a question about SQL Server, its Management Studio and its Report builder in Super User a few minutes ago and provided that Super User is the right board for that question, which obviously isn't so obvious concerning that topic, I have a request:
Can we have tags for the Reporting ...
@ThatBrazilianGuy people have no idea where a pubkey is used except for these sites that publish them - perhaps if you didn't want people to like, link your Bitbucket account to your Github account
But they would have to find your other user name first
"Saudade" can mean either originally a feeling of longing and melancholy, or more generally and current meaning, missing something, like "miss you", "haven't seen you in a long time", "I want to see you again", etc.
It can be used to refer to persons, places, moments in time
So there was this dev Meetup we're hosting today at 7:30 PM and we had 80 sign ups and now there's the bus panic and we don't know how many will actually show up....
