+1 Kodi. Been running it for ages on an old laptop with a infared remote with USB dongle. Kodi is set to autostart. Pretty hands off and can stream to it from local sources using Kore for android.

EDIT: Can stream from local AND online sources using Kore ex Newpipe (Youtube).

I don’t where you live. But almost all of bigtech US cloud is problematic (Read: Illegal to use) for storing or processing of Personal information according to the GDPR if you’re based in the EU. Don’t know about HIPPA and other non-EU legislation. But almost all cloudservices use US bigtech as a subprocessor under the hood. Which means that the use of AI and cloud is most likely not GDPR-complaint. Which you could mention to the right people and hope they listen.

Edit: It’s illegal to use for the processing of the patients PII, because of transfer to insecure third countries and because bigtech uses the data for their own purposes without any legal basis.

Edit 2: The same is the case with your, and your colleagues PII.

In my opinion privacy and GDPR is the same in this case. I think most public authorities is required to have a DPO, fx hospitals or the relevant health authority. The DPO can help answer your and your bosses questions on the mentioned questions.

Hope you figure it out.

Duplicati runs om Windows AFAIK.

Often thought of the same thing. So leaving this comment here in case someone got a good solution that don’t involve big tech.

When I get the time my plan is to read up on big techs solutions, fx Google and Apple, who as I understand can give your family access under certain conditions if your’ve passed.

EDIT: And replicate their solution using FOSS / self hosting.

He made the world a better place.

Something that would do that neoliberism in the 80’s with Reagan and Thatcher would not become the dominating political and economic theory it has been since that time.

Merino ski underwear is dry in no time 🙂

Ski underwear and socks made from wool / merino / synthetic, and top layer wind resisting running set. Plus something to keep hands and head warm. If too cold add additional layers of t-shirts in beetween. For night runs a headlight is a life saver.

It’s Meta’s nonsense reply to being forced by the European data protection authorities (EDPB) to get consent before processing users data, which they should have from the beginning: https://edpb.europa.eu/news/news/2023/edpb-urgent-binding-decision-processing-personal-data-behavioural-advertising-meta_en

Forgot to say to get osmand and organic maps on f-droid

Don’t use it for hiking but seem to remember it coming up in that context: Open Street Maps. AFAIK it has PC apps, android apps (osmand, organic maps etc.) and web. I use osmand a lot for maps, POI’s and navigation. Organic maps is great too. Simpler and more polished.

As I said, I cannot see the big difference. Please spell it out for me 🙂

The ‘definitely not true’ part was a reply to ‘ain’t gonna fly, Liberians and people can’t use Linux’. Which is a statement from one person without any evidence to back it up. The evidence shows it’s a false statement, because it is in fact working on a large scale in Denmark, without issues and people are happy with it.

So yeah, it is ‘definitely not true’.

That would be my guess, yes. Why would the danish librians and users in libraries differ from other places? We’re talking ordinary people with an average in computer knowledge in cities and libraries of all sizes.

Being a dane you have to explain the Missouri reference. If you mean something like small cities, see above.

Sorry, but definitely not true.

Source: See my comment regarding the majority of danish municipalities using Linux. No problem for the users or the people doing the sysadmin work.

Good question, but no 🙂

OS2 is a organization which coordinate software development for the participating municipalities and companies which sign up for delivering FOSS. I think OS2 stand for Open Source Software, but not sure.

Maybe not quite on the spot, but a Storage Share (hosted nextcloud) from Hetzner might be an option.

Bonus features and info: You can also share other files, location, calendars, contacts etc. They have a compliant data protection agreement, and are fully GDPR compliant.

Work with informationsecurity and GDPR. And know as a fact that many danish municipalities which administrate the libraries are using, and are happy with, Linux as public facing citizen PC’s in libraries.

They use OS2borgerPC, which translates to OS2citizenPC which is maintained and supported by the danish company Magenta. But it’s open source, so if you are in another country you could just use it - or better, give Magenta a call. They’re great and very reseaonable.
