A jockeying for position and status among the nation’s aristocracy.

The issue is the same as with these massive data centers: monstrous use of water and power resources with noise pollution stacked on top. I believe the community experienced constant low frequency sound at 85 dB and above. There have been significant health impacts reported as a result.<br/><br/><a href="https://youtu.be/m7_WDzPyoqU?si=lqdlk4R5p74dkOFk">https://youtu.be/m7_WDzPyoqU?si=lqdlk4R5p74dkOFk</a> 2025-09-19T13:04:14Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqsrp5psz70uew6seyrqc2jww90ju6zqu8zvydsadptnjn5sqyvsh6qzyq6u9tnvzxsfkp9p778gq7nrmc089pcewpgfr988fsjdcfpj2l4wxsste5w In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqszj7f5ewug4jzjyhfa4nxjr5k9rrnray0x8m7s5dxz3yrqx5k3kac0wgu57'>nevent1q…gu57</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Thank you for sharing. I’ve also been exploring down this path, but I also wanted to build in whole house streaming functionality. I plan to use your server setup with Navidrome. I have deployed WiiM devices to each room allowing me to stream whole house via the WiiM app. WiiM devices have network capability baked in.<br/><br/><a href="https://www.wiimhome.com/">https://www.wiimhome.com/</a><br/><br/>I buy my WiiM devices from Crutchfield so as not to support Amazon any more than absolutely necessary.<br/><br/><a href="https://www.crutchfield.com/">https://www.crutchfield.com/</a> 2025-02-20T16:12:02Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqsfrwh6e7g8fpd7pu76nd9z5a6nrp9cyeadrm6xtu0tepzg70vaz6czyq6u9tnvzxsfkp9p778gq7nrmc089pcewpgfr988fsjdcfpj2l4wx3nrex2 In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqs9ds7g8y30aev6lv9ty6p8y6ua9vh5drqntfpage6lu6zpy7k9facgde3ul'>nevent1q…e3ul</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Agreed. The question becomes, is it worth building the fire exits for the minority that will actually take advantage of it? 2025-01-15T10:57:00Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqsz7rqjmw9he4v4h7te75ajlc3qzw3gvshdr85lg5f7c6vjuqt9v6gzyq6u9tnvzxsfkp9p778gq7nrmc089pcewpgfr988fsjdcfpj2l4wxh4w7pm In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqszphgvhluueku5edd439wmmfghj2gsgpd0j6t8a64pgflhjhkw7jc304xf5'>nevent1q…4xf5</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>He posted his thoughts today. I get where he’s coming from. I don’t see millions of Bluesky users ever migrating to the fediverse. It’s not a realistic expectation. VCs &amp; billionaires are not going to build the fire exits. And if ordinary &amp; talented enthusiasts won’t, then who will?
