  • Two candidates for my best-discovery-of-the-year prize,

    Ptyxis terminal: https://gitlab.gnome.org/chergert/ptyxis A modern take at a terminal, gtk-4 native, gpu accelerated, container-aware etc that replaced tilix in my setup. And it comes neatly packaged as a flatpak

    LogSeq notes: https://github.com/logseq/logseq A different approach to note taking & journal. Very nice looking, rich plugin ecosystem, could use some performance boost but I think they are working on it

    Big shootout to flatpak/flathub that for me has finally taken off, I converted all of my regular desktop apps to flatpaks. Went from 3-4 apps last year to ~20 (including Firefox libreoffice, even my terminal app) this year and not looking back. This has made doing a major host SW upgrade almost painless for the first time in 25+ years using Linux desktops.

  • What a weekend for Williams and most specially for Colapinto! Here's to hoping he will take this chance and make his 9-race-only chance the start of a brilliant F1 career. He seems to have what it takes

  • A few years ago when my org got the ask to deploy the CS agent in linux production servers and I also saw it getting deployed in thousands of windows and mac desktops all across, the first thought that came to mind was "massive single point of failure and security threat", as we were putting all the trust in a single relatively small company that will (has?) become the favorite target of all the bad actors across the planet. How long before it gets into trouble, either because if it's own doing or due to others?

    I guess that we now know

    I thought this was a boost issue, but even using lemm.ee's web site, when browsing to my Nikon subscription (https://lemm.ee/c/[email protected]) I don't see any post. If I go to the same community from lemmy.world's own site, I can see recent posts: https://lemmy.world/c/nikon I noticed the same problem in other communities (but I thought the issue was my lemmy client). Can this be fixed?

    Touchless Car Wash options in (South) Etobicoke

    Looking for recommendations for a touchless car wash. Currently using the shell at Burnharmthorpe and Mavis but its kind of far. There is another one I used in the past in Dixon and Islington that is supposed to give both touchless and roller options, selectable in the screen, but the last time i was there it didnt ask, used rollers.

  • I just checked that link and YES, actually it is, thanks for pointing it out. The docs must have been updated for v0.13, they added the ffmpeg prefix to the go2rtc stance, this wasn't there before. I found this originally in a github bug discussion with the frigate dev, where he suggested the person having issues to try this out and see what happens. There was no follow up after that suggestion though.

  • Note - another helpful tip for 510WA cams: in this github listing: Reolink Firmware Archive, you can find a link to version 3.1.0.1387 which I have been running for a week, this version is much newer than the latest official release (.764), it adds two useful new options in t he Stream configuration section (which is only accessible via the Web interface of the cam),

    HA + Frigate and Reolink WiFi cams - how to avoid ffmpeg crashes

    If you use Reolink wifi cams via the Frigate integration in homeassistant, you may be used to seeing tons of "ffmpeg has crashed unexpectedly" in your frigate logs. I have 3 older reolink wifi cams in frigate (510WA, 511WA) which most in the community seems to advise against and indeed since I've been running frigate, while they worked, they have been problematic since Frigate 0.12 and the arrival of go2rtc

    Cutting down to the chase, when I was using the standard common configuration with these cameras:

     undefined
        
    go2rtc:
      streams:
        driveway:
          - "http://192.168.x.y/flv?port=1935&app=bcs&stream=channel0_main.bcs&user=USER&password=PASSWORD#video=copy"
        driveway_sub:
          - "http://192.168.x.y/flv?port=1935&app=bcs&stream=channel0_sub.bcs&user=USER&password=PASSWORD"
    
      

    ... frigate would generally work with them however in the logs I could see that the ffmpeg process that frigate creates for each re-stream would crash every few minutes, accumulating thousands of crashes over ti

  • what is the point of doing that? I just checked and I have hundreds of entities, it would take a huge amount of time to see which ones to keep visible / which ones are used in automations or visualization etc. What is the harm of just leaving them exposed?

  • I am no programmer either, mainly a technical-oriented user, and I made the switch to a linux-only desktop almost 20 years ago. I tried several distros but I keep coming back to ubuntu (in vanilla gnome mode), with it's closeness to debian and huge library of apps, with it's massive userbase you get a lot of online community support, and it's really polished these days. For the last 5-6 years or so I've been using "LTS" releases, doing major updates every two years, I found that to be a very reasonable cadence and it gives you great environment stability. The only significant downside I found these days is ubuntu's insistence in using their (proprietary?) snap desktop container app ecosystem, I personally much prefer flatpaks, and actually I use flatpaks extensively on my ubuntu desktop for SW that needs frequent updating (darktable, logseq, etc)

    HomeAssistant shopping list / I refraction with Alexa

    With the release of 2023.8 I noticed there is built-in shopping list functionality in HA. Up to now at home we have been using Alexa's shopping list (we have an old echo in the kitchen so it's been practical). My question: is there a way to somehow have the Echo's/alexa's shopping list feature to manage HA's shopping list by default? I recall from ages ago that there were Alexa skills like todoist that could take over the shopping list in the echo, is there anything equivalent from the HA community?

    PixelFed feed sorting

    New to pixelfed, is am using the android client. Overall it works very well but there is one basic thing I couldn't figure out, is there a way to have the feeds (network/public/home) sorted with some criteria, e.g. Show recent posts with more Likes at the top etc?

    Darktable.org site is down

    I wanted to create the first thread on this community about DT 4.4.1, only to find that the darktable.org site is down.

    Also the DT forum at pixls.us has been down for a few days.

    Regardless, what an amazing re DT release 4.4.1 is. Having used DT since the early 2.x days, it's incredible how far the software has evolved. It's very technical, but totally worth the learning curve.

    I am using the flatpak version these days, on ubuntu 22.04.

    With 2-bedroom rentals in the 3k+/mth range and 3-4br houses in the 5-6k/mth range, I wonder what level of family income is needed (specially to afford renting a house) and what kinds of professions/jobs are the ones that can allow you, in Toronto, to achieve that.
