  • Alternatively, you can create new users from the command line.
    This can be done as follows:

    If synapse was installed via pip, activate the virtualenv as follows (if Synapse was installed via a prebuilt package, register_new_matrix_user should already be on the search path):

    cd ~/synapse
    source env/bin/activate
    synctl start # if not already running
    Run the following command:
    register_new_matrix_user -c homeserver.yaml
    This will prompt you to add details for the new user, and will then connect to the running Synapse to create the new user. For example:

    New user localpart: erikj
    Password:
    Confirm password:
    Make admin [no]:
    Success!

    This process uses a setting registration_shared_secret, which is shared between Synapse itself and the register_new_matrix_user script.
    It doesn’t matter what it is (a random value is generated by --generate-config), but it should be kept secret, as anyone with knowledge of it can register users, including admin accounts, on your server even if enable_registration is false.

  • Info that could help others help you:
    House or flat?
    Renting or owning?
    How large an area do you need to heat?
    How many rooms?

    Temperature and savings:
    Where I live they say that a house with people living in it should be at least 16°C (~60°F) to handle the moisture we generate.
    Humans should have at least 18°C (64°F), preferably 20°C (68°F).
    That means that you could close doors and let unoccupied rooms have lower temperature than the rooms you use.
    If you’re stuck with space heaters then you’ll save quite a lot that way.




  • pfsense and opnsense are very similar. The pfsense devs has acted like jackasses towards the opnsense gang. They are both great for a router/firewall/vpn device. I would use external access points with them.
    I think there are more addons to pfsense than opnsense.

    OpenWrt is great when it comes to WiFi, but I find it much less intuitive to use for router/firewall parts. Could be that I am used to the way pfsense and opnsense do things.

    Neither do switching from what I know, so pair the router with a switch of your choice.












  • After which ctrl+f " in" takes you to the correct chapters. I do agree that a direct link would be more helpful.
    And for learning postgresql I agree it isn’t very helpful - using their tutorial links, w3schools or something like udemy if you prefer video format is the way to go in that use case.

    I remember back when you were told to learn to work with the documentation, not memorize it, because you will always have access to it as a reference. Maybe bookmarking reference books/documentation will make a come back as the search engines degrade.
