The March 13 Reuters ‌special report made public for the first time documents that confirm Banksy is Robin Gunningham. Gunningham has since taken the name David Jones, Reuters determined. Banksy’s lawyer did not confirm or deny the artist’s identity.

For anyone who is not familiar already:

Calibre is a desktop application that has some file hosting/syncing features.

Calibre-Web is a server software that uses the Calibre library files, but can operate independently after setup.

Calibre Web Automated is a server software based on Calibre-Web with an overhauled UI and many additional features including automated ingest, OIDC, KOsync, file conversion and fixing, and more.

I don’t personally use it so I don’t know if it depends on davx5, but you can add a CalDAV calendar directly in Etar settings.

I think I was actually thinking of KashCal, which works with or without DAVx5 by design.

Okay, I found it. I was looking in the wrong place and going in circles instead of clicking through the documentation one screen at a time. How embarrassing!

You are 100% right that it is spelled out very clearly. Thank you for the patience.

Thanks for looking into it. What URL did you enter in the server endpoint? Is it just the HA domain? Or is it another link that I have to get from HA? I’m sorry if this is a dumb question but I genuinely don’t know.

Possibly underrated: CopyParty. Its an entire fileserver in a little over 1 MB. You can host it on anything that runs python and the client can be anything with a browser. It’s unbelievably simple and efficient. If I knew self hosting was this easy I would have started sooner.

For an unbelievably simple WebDAV server, you may want to look into copyparty.

It depends on your needs, as it is not as full featured as some options out there, but it’s one Python file that you can just download and open. Boom. Fileserver.

For Android, you can use any of those on your server and DAVx5 on the phone. That makes it accessible to any calendar and contacts app systemwide. Some apps may also be able to connect directly, such as Etar.

Same. It’s pretty much my best behaved container.

Hey it’s a tough world out there. It’s getting harder and harder to identify fake images, which is why I wanted to explain some of the telltale signs that it is real.

I also have a number of friends who are very outspoken in the Iranian-American community. There are a lot of bad actors out there who are trying to discredit their entire movement because Trump happens to be president. Who else are they supposed to appeal to for an international intervention? They just want to rescue their families.

Zion is mentioned 152 times in the Hebrew Bible, a 3000 year old book. Unless you are also suggesting he is a time traveler?

It’s not a new idea. Read what I wrote above.

You’re right that many people were skeptical of his utopian view of multicultural harmony.

Nope. This map, according to the article it comes from, is constructed (incorrectly) based on a biblical reference (Gen 15:18). Herzl references it in his diary as part of a conversation brought up by someone else.

Herzl himself famously refused to define such borders.

This is abject nonsense bordering on misinformation. Herzl quite famously envisioned a future state in which Jews, Arabs, and others lived in harmony and mutual benefit.

Herzl is also not the founder of Zionism, a 3000 year old concept, but of the particular European branch of Modern Political Zionism.

Depending your needs.

If it is a static calendar, they can export an ics file that you can use in any calendar app.

If you need to be able to see updates, and if there is nothing particularly private, they can make it a public calendar.

Otherwise, you may need to make a Google account.

I’ve also had pretty good testing with One Calendar, but in general I prefer open source apps unless the proprietary app offers unique benefits.

I do wish they would spin off the Calendar into a standalone app, but they haven’t shown any interest in moving that direction. I use it for email anyway so I don’t mind.

There is an inherent cost to internet freedom from using chromium browsers. It gives Google, which controls the back-end, leverage to redefine how the internet works. It’s not as though they haven’t already done it on multiple occasions.

People will say things like “some websites run better on Chrome” as though that’s a selling point and not a red flag.

I’m not saying no one should use it or develop on it, but you have to be okay with the real cost.

Shame, it was a great project. Guess I’ll be migrating to calibre-web automated.

Looks promising. Thunderbird works great for me for now. There are increasingly good solutions for mobile as well.

I occasionally post reviews/reactions here in this community. It’s a nice way to get my thoughts out and also engage with others.
