I recently fell into this rabbit hole myself! Though I decided against hosting the blog myself(because I don't want to do anything stupid lol) Nowadays for sites like that you can install a static site generator to automatically build the site based off of markdown files. I personally use Hugo but I hear good things about Jekyll too.

The way mine is set up I make a post or a page on my machine and push it to my backend github repo. Github detects a change and rebuilds the site with the new content using a github action, then uploads the whole public folder to my host at neocities.

I just saw one in fdroid and I can't remember it now, lemme see if I can find it.

EDIT: it was zulip

It should! As long as you can get it to the bios screen you should be able to get it to boot a live USB. I actually resurrected my EeePC1005 two weeks ago with DamnSmallLinux2024.

How I keep that sort of thing in a single automation is by using trigger IDs and a service call with a template for said trigger id.

Something like this:

alias: Hallway Motion Light
description: ""
trigger:
  - platform: state
    entity_id:
      - binary_sensor.hallway_motion_occupancy
    to: "on"
    id: "on"
  - platform: state
    entity_id:
      - binary_sensor.hallway_motion_occupancy
    to: "off"
    id: "off"
    for:
      hours: 0
      minutes: 1
      seconds: 0
condition: []
action:
  - service: light.turn_{{ trigger.id }}
    data:
      transition: 3
    target:
      entity_id: light.hallway_light_2_2
mode: single

Yeah it looks like OP is using the device actions instead of dealing with the entity directly.

So let me see if I get this straight, We don't get RSS feeds for our saved posts because the developer of a federated service that was created in response to increased centralization and lockdown of user's content in other platforms doesn't see the need for it?

Ope, didn't mean to comment on this one, sorry.

EDIT: Alright WTH, Sync is playing silly buggers with my comment display.

[–] thegreekgeek@midwest.social 1 points 4 months ago

I can too, which is what gets me. Honestly after I think it might boil down to how far removed your provider is from directly getting the number from the FCC(or how trigger happy the entity they're getting the number from). Also possibly if it's considered a landline or mobile number, it looks like those are distributed differently.

Sort of? It looks like this is unique to SMS over VOIP. Which don't get me wrong, it's still fucking stupid. But maybe, just maybe there's a middle ground between getting inundated in robocallers trying to reach us about our cars extended warranty and not being able to send the word Scunthorpe over SMS.
