Guix for development in c/programming@programming.dev
[–] IanTwenty@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

This is similar using nix: https://devenv.sh/

It has a few more features like git hooks and spinning up long-running processes like web servers

‘Eat the rich’ — Why horror films are taking aim at the ultra-wealthy in c/movies@piefed.social

Triangle of Sadness is another I think, a bit of a patchy film tho

Maybe Strudel:

Can help with composingyour own tunes and I think its dev friendly being javascript based.

Six Films Better Than the Books They’re Based On in c/movies@piefed.social

Stalker has been on my watch list for ages, must find time for this

So underrated/underappreciated this film I think! Pacey, funny, smart with an existential threat and Tom Cruise playing humble. Emily Blunt is perfect and Bill Paxton has a great time.

Are there any external shade covers/frost shields that wraparound car windscreen and front windows? in c/cars@lemmy.world

I'll take a look at those, thanks

Appreciate your advice, thanks. It's the daily driver so I'm probably overthinking it!

The thing that puts me off a cover is that I hear you have to really keep the car clean to avoid damage? I just don't have the time right now to keep washing it.

As title, available in UK a bonus!

Photo management - storing friends' photos (lemmy.world)
 

Figured I'd ask here as thought self-hosters would care most about looking after their photos.

What do you do with friends' photos you'd like to keep hold of? Maybe there's a pic on a chat app or they've sent you a link to an album on google photos.

Would you just throw into your own pile of photos or do you carefully adjust metadata to indicate who took them? Just use dirs to separate them from your own? Interested in any and all thoughts.

IKEA moves to Thread (and away from Zigbee) in c/homeassistant@lemmy.world

Never had this with ZigBee, one hub lots of different devices. Had to switch hub to USB2 at beginning to reduce interference but after that smooth sailing.

Creating similar service to AlternativeTo in c/selfhosted@lemmy.world

An example site that takes user submissions and is not a wiki:

https://nerdydaytrips.org/

https://github.com/nerdydaytrips/website

Users submit a form that is turned into a github PR, hosted with cloudflare worker. Site itself is completely static, made with hugo. The data about each map pin is simply key/value in the frontmatter of a markdown file:

https://github.com/NerdyDayTrips/website/blob/main/content/daytrip/eu/gb/1066-battle-of-hastings.md

Simple but effective and can be styled however you need (hugo has themes). Moderation can scale by adding more contributors who can merge PRs.

Pillager Outpost - how to stop pillagers spawning? (lemmy.world)
 

I killed them all once and even dunked lava on the top yet still they spawn. Do you have to remove the entire structure to 'beat' them? Thx

Photo management at the cmdline - recommendations? (lemmy.world)
 

Can anyone recommend a tool to manage photos at the cmdline? I just want to move photos into dirs based on their metadata (YYYY/DD), occasionally fix up metadata (adjust dates), rename photo filenames to match a template and/or query my photos for certain things. It doesn't need to be a gallery or image touch-up tool, I have other things for that.

I'm aware of exiftool and ImageMagick, perhaps they can do the job but they seem quite low level, really need to build scripts around them - I'd like something that operates at a slightly higher level so I don't have to do too much scripting.

A quick search turned up chee (GPLv3) which can:

  • search photos using a simple query language
  • manage named queries (called collections)
  • copy/symlink images into a custom folder structure

...but it's not had an update in a few years (maybe it's feature complete tho!) Any other suggestions? Thanks.
