Really happy with Cloudron as well. Have been using it since 2022 for a small business and personally. They recently added community apps so now there is an official way for the community to add apps that are not yet officially supported. Really amazing product and pretty rock solid have migrated a complete Cloudron installation from one server to another a couple of times without issues.

Could you provide more details? 800 Euros sounds very cheap while being able to produce 45% of your electricity needs. Did you mount it on your roof or a balcony or wall? How much power does it produce? Very curious to hear more details or even recommendations (I too live in Germany).

They are planning on doing something similar:

Discord is also rolling out an age inference model that analyzes metadata like the types of games a user plays, their activity on Discord, and behavioral signals like signs of working hours or the amount of time they spend on Discord.

“If we have a high confidence that they are an adult, they will not have to go through the other age verification flows,”

I've been eyeing Immich for an iCloud replacement for some time now, does anybody have practical experience of how it can be used with iOS as the default backup destination for the Photos app instead of iCloud?

Hey Ben, this looks like a neat project/app! I'm always curious with apps like this about how financially viable it is. Seems to be a fair solution to be able to generate credits yourself by ranking and then buying more credits to get ranked, do you have any numbers or insights you are willing to share? (or have shared somewhere else before?)

Actually I really like this idea, especially in the context of shared food ordering it makes a lot of sense!

I've started working on a shared shopping list for group vacations. No sign-up, just create a list and share the link with friends. Emphasis on good sync performance even in bad network conditions, automatic sorting of the list based on where food is found in the supermarket, tags for items on the list. If anybody has ideas for this use-case please comment or email me :).

Can you elaborate more on the benefits of the Heroic launcher? From the website I understand it offers the convenience of bundling multiple launchers into one but having only used Steam, I don't fully understand it's benefits.

Awesome, thanks for answering! And yes, question one was also partly motivated by gaming :) I understand it doesn't ship with controllers, but I was wondering if the cameras/depth sensors/software are good enough to recognize and track for example a ping pong paddle.

Apart from that, I really hope Apple will work with more game engines in the future. I rented an HTC Vive Pro 2 last year just to play through Half Life Alyx and everything about this experience was so, so good (especially Jeff). Would be incredible if it ran on the Vision Pro eventually but I guess Source 2 is probably not on the engine list :)

One last question I actually had if you don't mind. How do you think gestures will evolve once the headset releases? I understand there are a few basic gestures defined already, like clicking, dragging, zooming, but what about cmd + Z or deleting something. I'm sure eventually people will expect the same gestures for those actions across apps but I didn't see any mention on them so far. Any thoughts on how those might emerge?

Thank you for answering all these little questions, hope I'm not too late :)

1. Could I take a disconnected cable keyboard and "anchor" the virtual keyboard to overlay the real one to get the haptical feedback when typing on the virtual keyboard?

2. I'm very excited about "hanging out in VR" but initial impressions of Persona avatars seem to be mixed. Do you think people will eventually get used to Personas after using them for longer or are we not quite there yet?

3. What is the focal distance for the eyes?

4. What are you most excited for using the Vision Pro again once it comes out :)?

I definitely can't wait to upgrade from my original HTC Vive!

> I have a hell of a lot of autonomy, freedom of tooling, people listen to me on tech issues -- even when they probably shouldn't

As someone who's now the only tech person at a small non-profit, this really really resonated with me (as did the rest of your post).

I feel it's often challenging to asses how robust/brittle something should be implemented because we don't sell (and maintain) software. A lot of "tech things" simply have a very short life span, often closely tied to project scope and duration.

I hope you don't mind me asking here, but it would be great to connect with someone in a similar position. If you're up for it, please feel free to shoot me an email, you can find the address in my profile :)
