Obligatory if you install HA on a raspberry Pi. Use the SSD option as you will wear out an SD card or usb key pretty quickly since those devices aren’t intended for constant writes from things like logging and generally don’t have any wear out leveling.
I feel like hourly with a fixed sale bonus would be fine for buyers.
$50/h at the location (maybe a travel fee for places far away from their normal location), and $5000 for a successfully closed deal. All buyer paid, that would mean that the realtor gets paid for work done, and but the closing bonus means that they don’t have as much of an incentive to keep taking the customers to crappy places to keep the hourly going.
Selling Realtors should really negotiate a fixed figure and a bonus that goes down the longer it takes to sell, this could encourage them to suggest lower prices on homes I guess, but it’s ultimately the owners decision to pick a price and the Realtors choice if it’s worth the effort to sell at that price
This doesn’t make a lot of sense in context, sure Texas has twice the land of Germany, but Germany has 2.5 times the population of Texas.
Though I agree Texas is likely not representative of all the USA.
It’s like fight club, and we follow the rules
On Android I just started using kiwi browser a month or two ago it’s for android only but it’s chromium based and supports extensions which brings ublock and others to mobile.

I don’t know how slow the old one was, but if I send myself an SMS using the bridge it completes a round trip to the Telco and back in about 1 second
Have you tried the new SMS bridge that relies on gmessages?
https://github.com/mautrix/gmessages
If you have an Android phone you can use the Google SMS app:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.apps.messaging
Then you pair the app and bridge. It’s been pretty reliable since I started using this bridge, especially when compared to the previous bridge options.
Is there a reason you couldn’t use either use a self hosted or the public hosted copy of element or an Android/iOS app and connect it directly to the beeper synapse/dendrite server?
Their clients are just closed forks of element anyways.
To be fair, the client they provide to make bridging more accessible is proprietary, however you can fire up a fresh copy of element and connect it if you want and just use the text interface.
The clients are closed so that they have something to sell and profit. Not everyone can afford to give their time away for free.
I have my own matrix server that I primarily use like beeper and bridge all my chats together. Even using some of their bridges, it’s been pretty reliable for years.
I know that a few people are hating on the closed source client, but that feels unfair to me. They provide lots of open code in the form of bridges which is really the meat of the offering. Their client just makes using the bridges easier for the lay person. The bridges are super easy to use without it, invite the bridge bot to a chat room, type login and do what it says, then type login-matrix and your pretty much done.
The I suspect that the same people who are displeased about the closed client also like using tailscale which is generally pretty popular but has closed source clients on Windows and Mac as well as the server (though all support the open source headscale server)
I have a FreePBX virtual machine hosted at home. I use VoIP.ms which covers most North American numbers and many numbers abroad. I use it to provide phone service to my parents house and cottage and my house and cottage. I put in about $40 a year to cover all these places with their own DID number.
Might I suggest Fast Reverse Proxy ( https://github.com/fatedier/frp )
It’s a great solution if you don’t have a public IP or can’t/don’t want to open any ports.
I found it super easy to setup and configure. I put caddy in front of the server side for mine to ssl offload there. But you could also route everything down the tunnel it makes and use a local reverse proxy to handle SSL offloading
I also use .lan I used to use .local for years until I started to have conflict issues with .local resolution on Android when they started using mdns
Just 3.3 cents per day seems pretty reasonable
