       @mike I notice you use ZorinOS, how do you finds it ? do you use the pro edition ? I think more for my wife who currently is using PopOS . I think the Zorin connect app would help her a lot

       @mike nice ! Thanks for the info,  I'm just trying the core live USB on for size,  looks stunning. Just out of interest have you ever tried a rolling release distro or do mainly use Debian/Ubuntu  based ?

       @neil it's literally my only regret with the rockpro64, there isn't as large a support market for things like UPS or other add ons

       @neil none really I can't see a reason why it wouldn't work with an APC UPS, I just can't justify the cost of a full blown UPS solution to protect my little server. Raspberry pi has a small UPS hat that runs off rechargable AA batteries and a script can power down the PI properly when it switches to the UPS supply. This is the kind of solution I would love for  the Rockpro64.

       @penguin42 @neil thank you for pointing this out , I completely overlooked somehow generic 12v 5A UPS suitable for routers and SBC's it's funny how a slight nudge in the right direction and I've managed to find alot of products that should be suitable . Really appreciate the tip.

       @penguin42 @neil I've found a few with reasonable reviews but I'll continue my research and report back on this post.

       Should I federate my Matrix synapse server ?Currently I use it as a personal family chat/video call server.I also have another account on matrix.org which I use to interact with other matrix  rooms.My worry is trying to "blacklist" federating with undesirable servers.What's the general advice do you run a federating matrix synapse ?#matrix :matrix:

       @penguin42 yeah I'm just learning this now, I honestly didn't fully understand federation enough , seems it was a worry over very little.

       @penguin42 I don't think its fully supported in nixos , I think you can get it running but with limited use , so still a possibility if there is nothing similar.

       @mike I've only just started blogging as you know Mike and I already feel this way. I always over think the content!
