There is also Vagrant which lets you specify VM specs, but also lets you install software in the VMs automatically. It also works for other VM software then just Virtualbox.

You will unfortunately have to get rid of the lemmy.ee links since they are closing down very soon.

While true regarding open source vs closed course. The risks are quite large for patients. For example, a few years ago there was a company called Second Sight that made artificial eyes so blind people could partially see again. Then the company discontinued the product and now they are stuck with an unsupported surgically implanted device that they rely heavily on but can break any time. It’s pretty risky to have something implanted if you don’t know if the company will be around in a decade or so.

This is definitely an older one, but I would like to add Cow & Chicken! Some of that stuff was pretty wild!

It seems impossible to log in right now. Emails with the verification code (valid for ten minutes) take many hours to arrive…

Sort of. I wear a camera while cycling because there are a lot of angry people in cars that have some weird hatred towards people using a bicycle.

Oh, I see. You fixed that one in 1.2. That wasn’t there yet when I commented. :)

Yeah, works great now!

Cute! 😀

It mostly works. I think line 103 should maybe be:

os.remove(os.path.join(cdata, "teat.txt"))

So, “teat.txt” instead of “eat.txt”. I think this prevents the cat from ever getting happy since that line causes an error and it never reaches image.set_from_file(os.path.join(current_dir, "data/happy.png")) which is very sad!

Actually, you may just want to catch the error if the file happens to not exist. Like this:

    try:
        os.remove(os.path.join(cdata, "teat.txt"))
    except FileNotFoundError:
        pass

Additionally, the GUI in KDE plasma in System Settings is not entirely reliable. It sometimes makes stuff up about IPv6 rules for example. It seems to be a very light-weight wrapper over the FirewallD DBUS interface.

It’s in the announcement for Plasma 6.1, see https://kde.org/announcements/plasma/6/6.1.0/

To enable it, you need to use the Brightness & Colour widget. See also the merge request for this: https://invent.kde.org/plasma/plasma-workspace/-/merge_requests/4093

I guess the documentation is a bit lagging still! I don’t know about a list of compatible keyboards, but I suppose you can just try it out to see if it works! 😁

Depends on which side of the exhaust you are on.

I have an AKASO Brave 7LE. I just take out the SD card and put it in an USB reader that I plug into my home server to move the videos. Then I just use my desktop for editing with Kdenlive which has a defish filter for getting rid of the camera distortion these actioncams have.

It’s also possible to connect to the camera through WiFi, but it’s much slower than using the SD card reader.

Regarding firmware updates, I don’t think AKASO is really into that but at some point I had an issue and support sent me a file that you just put on the SD card and the camera does the rest.

I use Edge daily for work. Everything it Office 365 and there is of course no Outlook client or Word or whatever on Linux. So I use the web version for everything. So I might as well have Edge to do the Microsoft since surely MS must make sure their stuff works on their own browser, right? (right??).

I also use the PWA version of Teams since the native client doesn’t really work well and since somewhat recently is also “officially” unsupported.

Anyway, it keeps the MS stuff separate from my normal browsing with Firefox and I’ve disabled JavaScript in Edge for all non-MS stuff. It works pretty well. Took me some battles to get rid of the Bing sidebar but they finally made that an option you can set.
