boinc VS openhab-distro

The only way I can foresee a cryptocoin actually holding value is if spending the coin meant spending processing cycles and RAM doing things like this:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_volunteer_computing_pr...

But in more general sense, less like https://boinc.berkeley.edu/ and more like AWS...

It's the only way to have value, actually holding computing power in a distributed network.

Made me think of Gridcoin and BOINC https://boinc.berkeley.edu/

The BOINC Census is back for another year! BOINC is an open source software and network for volunteer computing. People can use it do donate their CPU/GPU power to various scientific research areas like cancer, drug discovery, mapping the galaxy, and more.

A few years back, I was in a similar situation and found BOINC(https://boinc.berkeley.edu/) to be a great way to contribute. It's a platform that lets you support various scientific research projects by sharing your computational power and bandwidth. However, it's worth noting that BOINC might tends to be more CPU/GPU intensive rather than bandwidth-heavy

Berkeley Open Infrastructure for Network Computing (BOINC)

https://boinc.berkeley.edu/

https://boinc.berkeley.edu/projects.php

Has a unified management experience with the ability to subscribe to various projects, and set priorities/schedules for work units.

Probably BOINC (https://boinc.berkeley.edu/) could be a good solution for you. You can write me a DM, and I could help you to clarify is this something that could help you with your research. By default, to run your computations on BOINC you need to create a server, but we can deal with that and run your research on our own server first, so this could help you to start faster, and then later decide if you need a separate server. And yes - it's totally free.

The GitHub update, including changes, here: https://github.com/openhab/openhab-distro/releases/tag/4.1.0.M1

I understand the feeling :) I’ve tried home assistant multiple times, and I always come back to openHAB. Maybe it’s me getting old, don’t know. But like you, I dislike updating my server and having broken dependencies. That happens quite frequently with HA, where every once in a while we get people over on openHAB community forum asking for advice ( e.g. https://community.openhab.org/t/migration-from-home-assistant-to-openhab-and-installation-type/140110 ) because they too just want a stable service that they can rely on. I won’t say that there’s never been broken dependencies - not at all, in a previous update they changed the way the API works and the node red node broke - but here the difference is that you can go to their GitHub and review the changes (https://github.com/openhab/openhab-distro/releases/tag/3.4.0.M3) and they are impeccable in documentation. Check out the google integration documentation to understand what I mean:

OpenHab : https://github.com/openhab/openhab-distro/pull/1343

openHAB Beta 2.18.2-beta: Vendor and technology agnostic open source home automation

Look into OpenHab.

OpenHAB would work well as well. Definitely agree on zwave or maybe zigbee devices for low power usage.

I use this https://www.home-assistant.io/ or another https://www.openhab.org/ and a cheap raspberry pi zero. It can run 24/7. And maybe some "hacking" on your devices if not supported aka listed.
