Anyone got a good recommendation for a travel size white noise machine? Doesn't need to be one with a real fan; well implemented sound generators or loops + a good enough speaker is fine. USB powered, ideally but doesn't need an internal battery. I'd slightly prefer no battery so I can put it in checked bags on planes but batteries aren't deal breakers. Small size is important. I'd ideally like to avoid Amazon et al and need it shipped within/to USA with the next couple of weeks.

I'm trying out migrating my notes synchronization from syncthing to nextcloud. The only real problem I'm having so far is that the android nextcloud files app doesn't seem to automatically sync subdirectories. I set my Notes folder for two way sync but only top level items are actually copied to the local filesystem unless I manually go and hit "sync" on every single one at every single level. Is there any way to automatically sync the entire nested folder?

Just let folx like stuff 

Don't try to blow out someone else's candle because yours is dim.

Please don't let the fear of not doing something well stop you from trying it for the first time. Write a messy story. Paint a crappy flower. Whittle the worst wooden bear of all time.

The best gift you can give yourself is to have fun and grow.
