    I’m looking for a new client to access mastodon / fedi. Something I can run on one of my RPis, and access from web-browsers on various devices, all with a synched reading position. Zero desire for multi-column layouts. Minimal desire for python, because dependency management.Elk looked good, but requires Docker: https://github.com/elk-zone/elkBrutaldon looks good, but python and Django… oof. https://gitlab.com/brutaldon/brutaldon/-/blob/main/INSTALL.md?ref_type=headsPinafore is unmaintained: https://github.com/nolanlawson/pinaforeAny other suggestions?#AskFedi

    Hey fediverse #nonprofit people,I've got a project (missionlibre.org), which is meant to bring kids aged 11-14 into #freesoftware. No part of it has been easy -- not practically, not personally. I think Mission:Libre is wonderful, but it's an odd little project in a complicated situation. I could really use and ear and some practical advice from someone with experience. Are you able to help me?I'm in #newzealand and people here just don't get it. #askfedi #help

    Question. Is there some kind of device that works as a sort of USB rate limiter? that just throttles the amperage going to a USB device?Problem: I bought a tiny USB-powered ceiling fan, but it runs waaaaay too fast. That's to solve the bigger problem of heating efficiency, which is that in my RV, the ceiling at 6ft will be 80F while the human area is 60F and the floor is 40F.It does solve that but at what cost? The cost of noise, cool breezes, and a jittery threatening aura, that's what. We're not talking entire BTUs of air needing moved here. There are walk-in closets bigger than my house. I expected a gentle waft setting just to keep things slightly circulating. It has 3 setting: Pretty Fast, Freaking Fast, and Freaking Fuck Faster.I would settle for "Half Fast Nine." The thing advertises itself at 5W and I would like it to run like it really is 5W tyvm.I'm not about to open'er up and solder in a bunch of resistors. The only thing I was truly good at in electronics school was catching breadboards on fire. (This is a true story. Yes, I was trying to burn things. They let me graduate.)Is there some kind of USB dongle I can attach in the middle that will just say, "Nope, slower'er down a wee but, yae canae* have that much power"?* Sorry, I've been watching Limmy stream Disco Elysium and his accent is stook in me 'ed. Pretend I'm from Star Trek.#RightToRepair #AskFedi #RVLife

    I was out and about earlier and saw this box on a phone pole. Anyone know what it is? It's got a BEST brand marine padlock on it, which the city of Seattle uses for a lot of long-term outdoor applications, so I suspect it may be city-installed/managed (unlike the smaller white Ricochet boxes with one antenna).#AskFedi #Wireless #Telephony #Electronics
