Why is it so difficult to book train tickets across countries in Europe? Especially to the Nordic countries (Sweden). Anyone have some tips?

Its a bit ridiculous how for flights there are hundreds of websites that will book your whole journey automatically to the lowest price across hundreds of companies. But for trains it is a mess of having to use multiple local websites and no idea why one connection ticket is hundreds of euros more expensive than the other. Make flights more expensive so trains can compete! Or the other way around 🙄

Still searching for a TV that won't monitor me, as in no software, no wifi, no built in ads! Just a display with HDMI and excellent picture quality.Finally found this one from a smaller German brand called Technisat. Problem is though that for other big brand TVs I can find detailed reviews of everything, but for this one can't find a single review.Anyone have any experience with Technisat TV's?https://www.technisat.com/de_DE/MONITORLINE-UHD-55/352-22087-22089/

@dansup has there been any research into using a distributed file storage solution? Like IPFS? That is something I would be interested in trying to add to a fediverse project. But maybe it’s already been attempted?

I'm looking for a free, open source and self hosting friendly project management tool. I'm thinking something flexible like Trello. To be used by a group of loosely connected queers to organize tasks. Got some tips? How do you organize tasks within volunteer groups?

What do you use the "unlisted" post visibility for? What does it do?The only use I can think of is to somehow create pinned toots on your profile without sending them out to everyone. What use case am I missing?#mastodon #userguide

After many years of only #Apple products I want to go full #Linux for my next laptop. I will mainly use it to code (and watch YouTube 😅) and some gaming (#OxygenNotIncluded)I’m very enticed by #System76 and their line of laptops, especially by their focus on ease of use. “Oryx Pro” looks cool too:https://system76.com/laptops/oryxThen I realised there is a German company called #TuxedoComputers selling the same hardware as “XP1610”https://www.tuxedocomputers.com/en/Linux-Hardware/Linux-Notebooks/15-16-inch/TUXEDO-Book-XP1610.tuxedoAnyone have experience with Tuxedo?

Anyone here have experience with SAML and identity providers?I'm trying to find an identity provider that is open source and doesn't require a whole team to manage. All identity providers that I find like Keycloak, Gluu, etc look super complex to host and administer.I don't need full LDAP, linux auth and everything else. All I want is SAML and possibly OAuth.Does an identity provider have to be complex? Is this as easy as it gets?

@Gina Hmm, looks like that is not an identity provider itself, but only a link to an external identity provider?"User authentication is always performed against a separate Identity Management system (for example a FreeIPA server)"

@fatboy @thunderdragon900 why couldn’t you switch? I’m curious to try hosting my own, but hear that it’s quite resource intensive.

@fatboy @thunderdragon900 ah yeah the encryption part seems to be tricky. I’m hoping to host it myself using their new go server dendrite one day but it still lacks cross signing support for the encryption. Hopefully soon tho :)

@fatboy @thunderdragon900 Ah no, I'm assuming that is much easier? 🤔 But matrix just looks... cooler? 😅And the element.io client being support across all platforms with similar UI is a big bonus too.

@shadowfacts @cinebox well since all that recycled aluminium only comes from in-factory milling of other apple products, if I remember correctly, they still need at least one huge volume product that mills out a lot of it…. to be “recycled” into other products. Still good but eh not the recycling most people think of.

Hello again fediverse. I’ve had a break from here since our community server fizzled out of existence. I’ve been kind of living life raw without any social media. But now because of recent global events I’m back and people all around me are asking about social media alternatives, so I wrote a blog post trying to summarize my knowledge ✨https://erinstorm.eu/blog/2025/meta-exodus/
