About this deal

How much does it cost to keep it up and running 24/7? I had roughly calculated that it’s about 3-5 euro a month. I’m not 100% sure how much Watts my laptop uses when it’s idle, but being closed like this: the screen is off; the CPU is running so low that the fans completely turn off - I guesstimate that it’s running at 10-20 Watts. To calculate your bill use any random online electric bill calculator - here’s one. Software Setup

Now, you can try and reset your router and simulate the IP change and see what happens - hopefully it all goes well. Streaming Music to your Chromecast - your own Spotify service, no ads included There are several ways to go and things to consider. In a nutshell - the hardware should be able to accommodate a Hard Drive, an Ethernet port, and potentially to have another SATA port to expand the storage (as you will run out of it eventually).Now, if you run this script (make sure you give it: sudo chmod +x update-dns.sh and then you can just: ./update-dns.sh ) with all the things filled-up, except Entry ID - it will print you the JSON reply with all of the Entries in the given Zone ID. Now you can scroll through the reply and find the Entry ID ( key “id”). Once you find it, re-edit your file and paste the Entry ID. So by setting up the Nextcloud App, indexing your audio files, going to this path: /apps/music/#/settings - and creating an authentication token (or you can use your nextcloud credentials) - you can already listen to your music on-the-go. Experience a beautiful cloud in your own room. Enchanting cloud night light appears to float on the clear stand. Colour-change light show with rain and thunder sounds. Mode 1: relax to the sound of gentle rain with a calming, colour-change LED lights. Perfect for dropping off to sleep. You can connect it to your URL, with your credentials - and it has various neat options, including Instant Photo Uploads - these are really handy if you or your partner makes a lot of photos / videos.

Mode 3: bring the force of nature into your room with thrilling thunder sounds and cool lightning effects. Hear the storm, whilst you stay warm and cosy in bed! And if you’re planning to actively use their chat feature - they also released a separate Official mobile app for that too - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.nextcloud.talk2&hl=en&gl=US Startups & BusinessHere comes the last bit - add this shell script to your crontab. To do this, you can just type in shell: crontab -e and then make sure you have this line: If you’re running a small business (or mid-sized one ?) or a startup - and you need a place to share events, tasks, chat, collaborate and share files - Nextcloud is an amazing tool for that. Experience this beautiful cloud in your own room, in the dark the cloud appears to float as it is set on a clear stand. The first mode allows you to relax to the sound of gentle rain with a calming colour changing LED light, the second mode is the colour change only, with no sound, and the third mode brings the force of nature into your room with thrilling thunder sounds and lightning effects. Suitable for kids from 3+ years, it makes the perfect bedtime lamp as each mode switches off automatically after 40 minutes, enough time to relax and drift off to sleep, and without running the lamp all night. However streaming to Chromecast - came with a bit of a challenge. I’ve browsed quite some apps, but didn’t find anything that would work - until I have landed on Dsub for Subsonic - Note: “Cloud” can have many meanings, here we’re basically talking about an online storage solution - it also doubles as a chat-server (audio/video), streaming server, etc - basically NAS (Network Attached Storage) with bells and whistles; and not “Cloud” in terms of Google Cloud or AWS.

However, I also recommend you to do the manual set up - and here are some links and tips on how to configure everything. Brainstorm Toys is a range of fun, educational and interactive STEM toys that brings together a host of fascinating items. STEM toys incorporate science, technology, engineering and maths and encourage children to explore and develop a passion for these subjects. The aim of Brainstorm Toys branded products is to entertain children but also to inspire them to learn more about their environment. Once that’s taken care of, it’s time to set up some users. A pristine Nextcloud installation has only one user, the administrator. While you can operate your cloud as the administrator, it’s a good idea to employ Nextcloud’s excellent user-management facilities to create a new user. Use an old laptop - an old laptop isn’t much of use, many of us have some old dusted laptop somewhere. Laptops are good because they are power-efficient, usually come with an Ethernet port, and at least 2 SATA ports - so you can connect 2 hard-drives. Ever had to have 2+ Dropbox free-tier accounts to get more storage? Ever had full Google Drive (including Google Photos) or any other service? Here I will explain how we’ve set up our own Private Cloud (oh, it’s free and open-source).You don’t have to pay anyone “per seat” - you can create as many seats as you want and remain in control of your business data (all of the files & generated meta). I wish I knew about Nextcloud when we started Drupal Moldova Association - it would make my life way simpler. It indexes all of your music and allows you to access it via various APIs, such as Subsonic. This is a great feature, because you can now use various Apps on different devices (such as your Android Phone) - to connect to your server, browse the contents, make playlists and stream audio. Here’s a huge list of Subsonic Apps.
