In my ever-ongoing struggle to disentangle myself and my family from our corporate overlords I have gleefully dived into self-hosting and have a little intranet oasis available; media, passwords, backups, files, notes, contacts, calendars – basically everything I needed the Big G suite for at one point, I’m hosting locally,...
Perhaps there’s a way to do this via hotspot, but I meant tether via physical connection to the router. Some routers do offer failover to secondary networks. Possibly with qos to prevent scarfing, as you put it ;)
Condos could be pre-contracted just like any other home. And I believe condo associations are resident owned.
Ultimately though, I think the important bit would be that the finished inventory is only owned by actual residents. Which a condo association would accomplish.

Today at the grocery store a sweet older lady approached me and asked if I knew anything about computers. I said yes I do, and she produced a mouse saying that her son set up Linux mint for her and she was wondering if the mouse was compatible. It needed kernel version 2.6 or newer so I said that the mouse should work, guessing...
I don’t have any reason to not trust OP, but the likelihood of this conversation happening at ALL seems incredibly unlikely. Never mind that it is described as successful.
Yeah, I’m not saying it’s impossible, just incredibly unlikely.
The number of people out there that fit the description of your mother is low.
The number of people that could have intelligently answered the question is a bit higher, but still low.
The likelihood of those 2 people meeting in a store not dedicated to computer tech, and having this exact conversation, is like… monkeys playing Mozart level unlikely. ;)
Your assumption regarding my goal is wrong though. I took care to explain my thoughts in a way that didn’t deny the possibility outright. No worries if you missed that, or are skeptical.
I think most can agree (even if you don’t) that the chances of this are just wild. That itself was interesting enough to me that I chose to type out 2 comments. I’m told commenting/contributing is the point of being on lemmy?
Anyway, I don’t know who pissed in your wheaties, but I hope your day improves from here.
I’m surprised that was enough - don’t underestimate a kids ability to make their own pixie dust out of whatever they have around. Now there’s plant soil and sugar on the floor too.
I’ve been looking forward to buying an EV for like 10 years… I keep waiting for the balance of price and quality to meet come down out of the stratosphere… prices seem to only go up. I want something in the $30k range, and the quality level that $30k got you 10 years ago.
For example, I’m sure the average joe doesn’t know just how expensive calligraphy pens can be, or how deep the rabbit hole goes on video game speedruns.

What temperature do you keep your thermostat at?
Title. We keep ours at 75F, parents do 77F, and in laws 68F. It made me curious what everyone else keeps theirs at?
If you ask for "tea" at a restaurant, what happens and where do you live?
In the South East, they bring you sweetened (usually far too sweetened for my tastes) iced tea. This is amazingly universal....
