Is it what AI is good at, or is it just that the image generation stuff is where the focus has been because it's more accessible to non-tech literate?

I've found that breaking cables is a personal issue. I still have an old usb Xbox 360 controller for pc gaming from when I owned an xbox. My partner has destroyed cables for laptops, hairdryers, headphones in less than 12 months.

Some cables are objectively worse than others (macbook chargers I'm looking at you) but a modicum of care generally is enough to make sure they last without too much hassle.

How does the law require them to be greedy?

I just assumed that it was shareholders.

How do I self host data? in c/nostupidquestions@lemmy.world

[-] Chouxfleur@lemmy.world 1 points 9 months ago

So it's likely that I'll have 2-5 people accessing the central info.

It's one household so they'll be on the same network but ideally I'd like to be able to sync calendars (and the associated info) at any given time online.

That's where I run out of knowledge, essentially. Setting up a basic CalDAV server (like Baikal for example) isn't beyond the realm of possibility, it's just knowing how to actually get it online.

Would I need my own server in my home, or can I host it similarly to my Wordpress website, for example?

Yeah, CalDAV looks like the best fit from my limited searching, it's just actually putting that into a usable system that I can use that I'm struggling with!

I don't mind a bit of proprietary-ness, what I'm after is controlling how and with whom I can share my data.

Essentially the goal is to have a family's worth of accounts with Calendars, To-Dos/Reminders, and Notes that I can back up myself but still allows syncing to phones/PCs, etc. and basically a central calendar for 'global' (ie. Whole family) events.

How do I self host data? (lemmy.world)

I'm tired of being tied to specific calendars and to-do apps because of difficulties in sharing and syncing my data, so I'd like to be able to manage it myself, either self hosting or using someone else's servers.

I already pay for web-hosting for a personal website (wordpress) but beyond this I'm totally at a loss.

My main goal is incredibly simple - I just want to host some notes and calendars for my family (tomavoid headaches when phones invariably break and so on), which I feel can't be too hard but I'm also incredibly stupid.

Please help?!

Traditional porridge is amazing. Just with a little salt added it's the most fantastic breakfast food.

What are you using to browse lemmy?

In any case I was trying to link to matrix.org

Universal Stylus? (lemmy.world)

submitted 11 months ago by Chouxfleur@lemmy.world to c/android@lemmy.world

I have a Lenovo Tab P11 (Gen 2), which while not being that old seems to have been entirely superceded, to the point that I can't seem to find stock of the only compatible stylus listed on their website (well, that isn't approaching £90 or shipping from China in Ebay- the RRP being something like £40)

Are there any decent universal styluses that can be bought for a decent price that will write well enough to be worth the cost? To my knowledge the Tab P11 isn't USI compatible, unfortunately so I understand that my options may be limited here!
