Snipe-it … I’ve been using forma a while to track my IT equipmente. Dies a Hood job. Didnt know about Homebox. Just checked the demo. It appears to be what I’ve been looking for for years now. Will try it soon. Very much developed by single person. I but risky if development is dropped but then CSV export at least saved the data that can be imported into spreadsheet

That is what i meant

Presumably Roku spies on you too? Better to installato one of those linux based OSes that you can even install on a Pi

Cheers for that. I need pro tip 2 then 😄 because I still can’t work out why the search on my lemdro.id instance only pulls up locale instances despite me fully declaring the community address as [email protected]

Shouldn’t it be searching across all instances? I’m using Jerboa as an android client.

I agree. We want both. Its like water consumption needs which keep increasing. We want to reduce demand and increase leakage reduction rather than take more water out of the environment. We’re making a mess of this planet because our lives are based on the assumption of eternal growth.

UK water companies are starting to explore this option and are hitting huge regulatory barriers as the by-product is considered industrial effluent. It will require regulatory shift. I’m wondering if anyone has done the maths properly though. How much salt do we mine each year? And how does it compare to the salt produced by desalination? If the average consumption of water in the UK is 125 l, then we can compare the salt produced to the salt consumed per capita every day in the country (e.g. industrial use, salt spreading on roads, etc.).

The truth is that you’ll never be producing 125 l for 69M people all from desalination. Only a very small fraction of the 125 l will come from desalination.

The challenge is being driven by climate change and stringent environmental legislation in the UK water industry. These challenges are creating large gaps in their water resource planning for their future water supply. Hence desalination and effluent reuse now being considered as options. Its all in the water company water resource plans that have been published on their websites.

And BTW, I don’t fully understand why 3 people have down voted this post. Its an incredibly interesting topic.

Well, I don’t want to bore people here with all my Truenas posts 😀 I installed a few weeks ago and still on a steep learning curve. Given that I’m off Reddit now, I need a community to support me. Also, as I’ve just joined Lemmy, I would need to work out how I create a new Truenas community. Presumably that can only happen on my instance and presumably I will need tone graced by the instance admin … Wow, lots of hard work 😅
