I actually just bought mine a few months back. Unfortunate that it is no longer available.

Here is the actual answer you were looking for: The Dynalink TV Box (4K) for $30.

  • Unbeatable price
  • One of 3 TV boxes supported by LineageOS for best privacy. Only other ones are the Nvidia Shield devices ($100+) and the Google ADT developer devices (can't be easily purchased)
  • Possible to use without GAPPS or with GAPPS and a root firewall
  • Can use VPN or custom DNS despite regular Android TV limitations
  • Full DRM/Widevine support for UHD content even with LineageOS flashes

I've personally used one for months now for GApps-free, Widevine compatible streaming on Netflix, Prime, Newpipe, etc. I used LOS + Mullvad VPN + AFWall + several Xposed modules to hide root and it all works just fine.

As a reformed neo-liberal, I recently came across Cockshott's Towards a New Socialism, and I have to say I'm absolutely stunned. I never even considered there could be anything other than markets to allocate resource in an at least somewhat efficient manner.

I realize that the field has received very little attention, and I am unable to find much other sophisticated research on the topic of computer-optimized central planning or modern takes on the economic calculation problem.

Here are the few things I did manage to find:

Economic Calculation in Light of Advances in Big Data and Artificial Intelligence

Review of Towards a New Socialism? by W. Paul Cockshott and Allin F. Cottrell

Does anyone know any other things I can look into?

NocoDB is likely a more mature option.

Recommended VPS Provider? (lemmy.ml)

I'm looking to switch to a different VPS provider that is more privacy-respecting.

These are some I am currently considering:

I'm looking to host a matrix server, pleroma, rss feed reader, xmpp, syncthing, as well a few other services. Nothing bandwidth intensive, but I do need at least 3gb of ram. I'm also looking to use docker.

Anyone have any recommendations for such providers that aren't incredibly expensive?

Matrix as an alternative to SMTP? (lemmy.ml)
 

Given all the issues with PGP mail, SMTP, and IMAP, as well as the flexibility of Matrix, I was wondering if it makes sense to apply Matrix to non-realtime communication like email. Developments like autocrypt and pEp just seem like attempts to fix a broken protocol rather than anything cohesive. Other attempts like Dark Mail don't seem to have yielded much.

I imagine implementing something like this would be pretty straightforward and could either be in the style of a local IMAP/SMTP bridge (similar to Protonmail Bridge) or as an extension of existing email clients. All the matrix magic and encryption could be very transparent, and for users which don't have a matrix account associated with their address, a regular SMTP homeserver bridge could be used to send and receive for out of band users.

Anyone have any ideas, resources, or comments about this?

Any progress for a native Signal client? (lemmy.ml)
 

I know there were several initiatives a few months ago hoping to develop a native linux client for Signal. Are we any closer?
