import··on Is an Intel N100 or N150 a better value than a Raspberry Pi?
You can get beelink or minisforum. I have both and they’re rock solid.
import··on Ask HN: What's the 2025 stack for a self-hosted photo library with local AI?
Self hosting and owning your own data
import··on Show HN: RomM – An open-source, self-hosted ROM manager and player
Thanks for the answer. Curious how hacks can be enabled, any pointers on that?
import··on Mozilla to shut down Pocket and Fakespot
They open sourced some stuff already https://github.com/Pocket
import··on Itter.sh – Micro-Blogging via Terminal
The same reason why people posting stories instead of actual posts. Or you really don’t want to write masterpiece everyday.
import··on Minimum Viable Blog
RSS is very liberating. Quality of content is something very subjective and the audience can choose what to engage with. Nothing called perfect and not every post has to be a masterpiece.
import··on Exercise before bed is linked with disrupted sleep
I am using Garmin Fenix sleep tracking around 7-8 years and checking sleep score everyday. Personally, exercises after 20:00 disrupts my sleep and I sleep later than usual.
import··on Show HN: Zev – Remember (or discover) terminal commands
Not op but you need fzf and you need to increase the history size of your bash/ssh whatever

import··on MusiCoT, a chain-of-thought (CoT) prompting technique for music generation [pdf]
You can listen to generic health insurance advertisement music maybe?

Industrial techno is exactly this
import··on Self-Hosting like it's 2025
Exactly. I am hosting 30+ services using docker compose and very happy. I don’t want to troubleshoot k8s in the early morning because home assistant is down and light dimmers are not working for some random k8s reason.
import··on Show HN: An Almost Free, Open Source TURN Server
How to doc recommends using Oracle Free Tier but they recently had a breach and leaked login server data https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/security/oracle-custom...
import··on The Alexa feature "Do Not Send Voice Recordings" you enabled no longer available
They're already better compared to commercial solutions regarding device/service support and complex automations.

But missing opinionated defaults, really, you still have to roll your own home/away/vacation solution. Creating a dashboard requires you to understand the meta of Home assistant which takes a lot of time.

People asking should I get PI or NUC every single day in the reddit. I am happy with my 2000lines long configuration file except scripts and automations. But it won't be easy for someone is not tech savvy.

import··on Show HN: XPipe, a shell connection hub for SSH, Docker, K8s, VMs, and more
Tried, seems nice, but don't want another subscription.
import··on Tailscale is pretty useful
10 times slower than Wireguard
import··on All Kindles can now be jailbroken
Nice to see a good write up. I did the same a year ago, it refreshes every hour (except night) and battery needs to be charged every 24-25 days.
import··on A colorful Game of Life
This as a screensaver would be really nice. Great work!
import··on Kagi – Introducing Fair Pricing
You’re the main income source for the Netflix :)
import··on Show HN: Audiocube – A 3D DAW for Spatial Audio
Looks interesting, will check it out. I am curious what makes audiocube different and better than Logic Pro’s binaural and spatial Dolby atmos mixing?
import··on Who would buy a Raspberry Pi for $120?
Unless you need a small form factor and GPIO, I don’t think the Raspberry Pi is a good deal anymore. A Raspberry Pi, SSD, case, and power adapter would be much more expensive than well-known N100 mini PC brands like Beelink and Minis Forum. However, they still have low power consumption. So my answer is no. (Was a happy RPI4 user but now much more happy with mini pc's)
import··on Learning Synths
Came here to say this. I would recommend surge or vital as a starting point.
import··on Australia/Lord_Howe is the weirdest timezone
Nice morning reading
import··on Busy Status Bar
I have 2 of them and love them, blueforcer firmware supports home assistant and I can mix it with automations
import··on Turn your old laptop into low-end gaming machine
Not an old laptop but I have similar setup with a mini pc: Debian 12, Steam and Lutris. I am playing games like Red Alert 2, championship manager 0102 and having much fun
import··on Home Assistant Presence Simulation
You can get a mini pc for the same price and it would be more comfortable.
import··on Home Assistant Presence Simulation
I ran it on RPI 3 and 4 with SSD for years and had zero issues. Now moved to the mini pc but RPI still hosting other stuff and works rock solid.
import··on Amazon is bricking primary feature on $160 Echo device after 1 year
Same here. I have one echo left and using as a fancy kitchen timer with clock.
import··on Medieval
Few new features (not revolutionary) and bigger memory
import··on Medieval
One of the best gear demo I watched in last few years
import··on Show HN: Protect your links with a password
The website was inaccessible for me then I remember I’ve blocked xyz domains in my AdGuard
