I know about the lack of multi-floor map support in Valetudo, which I don't mind. I would very much like to keep my no-mop zones (separate from no-go zones), though.
If you can share first-hand experience, please sound off below. Boosts for reach appreciated, too. Thanks!

For example, considering the fact that even today not all upstream services you may be using are available with native IPv6 support,¹ do you/does your supplier provide DNS64/NAT64 gateways that are automatically provisioned for your IPv6-only instances/containers/etc. to use?

What use cases for GPUs (or vGPUs) do you normally cater to that are *not* related to generative AI? And how significant are *those* use cases, presently, in relation to your overall GPU/vGPU footprint?

Have you ever professionally migrated an existing workload from one virtualisation/cloud platform to another? This is distinct from redeploying instances from scratch using automation/orchestration. What I mean is have you ever had to take an existing instance on, say, GCP and moved its contents to AWS, for example?
If so: how did that go for you? How long ago was it? How many instances did you have to migrate? What other details can you share, if any?

The standard approach shown here won't work, because it uses kernel mounts which non-`root` can't mount (unless listed in `/etc/fstab`). FUSE-mounting NFS or CIFS would be an option, but the related development efforts all appear rather dead or dormant.

Since November of last year, #HomeAssistant has gained the option to integrate Husqvarna robotic lawn mowers in a cloudless fashion, so buying one of those is finally looking like a somewhat interesting option.

Is there a term for the Overton window that is not linked to political discourse, but rather covers individual personal behaviour?
As in, something that used to be considered an expression of simple decency and respect becoming unusually deferential (ex: lifting or tipping one's hat), or something once commonplace becoming extremely rude (ex: urinating in the street)?
Or would the term "Overton window" apply to that as well?
