The fact that a shift manager can't say "you can be 30m late on deliveries, take it now" is infuriating.

I beleive the extra cut suggests overlap, not extra time. I.E. clip 1 running until 12:02 instead of 12, with clip 2 picking up at 12.

This happens during resets sometimes to ensure footage isn't lost. I.E. you start recording on a second ffmpeg process before you stop the first. The missing minute is the part that matters, and overlap makes it even more plausible that missing minute was removed.

Sounds like daisy chaining uber-cheap LoRaWAN radios would be a fun hobby there 😉

It's Samba4, so really well.

How are they profiting?

[–] fmstrat@lemmy.nowsci.com 2 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

And that you have the time to figure out how to do it right. (Because they pay you for that time).

For weather, the hottest/coldest part of the day are almost always around the same time. If you know those, it's pretty easy to say "the temp right now is the hottest it will be for the rest of the day", or "the high for today will be the hottest when we get there".

Works with all AD tools. I've been using it for years.

I used to be in this camp. xdotool was the solution for me.

I second Immich. Does this great, and the local AI mapping is pretty good.

[–] fmstrat@lemmy.nowsci.com 2 points 3 weeks ago

There are lots of these? And if it's images, you could use Immich and it will find similar pictures that aren't exact, too.

This would be great

 

Is everyone just using AI and not proof reading? I see this a lot lately. Even Tom's Guide has bad editing, a good example is this article: https://www.tomsguide.com/news/pixel-8

Most notably, the display looks set to shrink from 6.3 inches to 5.8 inches

Then

The Pixel 8's screen is rumored to measure 6.17 inches, down from 6.31 inches.

It's like they're just grabbing from other articles and cramming together or adding content to old news now vs analyzing and forming opinions. With all the LMG drama lately, I had hoped written news would take note. Maybe I'm just too picky.

 

As with many others, I've recently needed to do some purging of media in Pict-rs. What I also discovered is that due to an issue with either Lemmy, Pict-rs, or my setup, at some point Pict-rs was not properly removing files from the file system on a purge, leaving about 20GB of media orphaned.

To combat this, I've updated LPP with some additional configuration options to do both direct "purge" of leftover media in Pict-rs not tied to "kept" posts and a forced "remove" of files on the file system that are not properly purged (if using local storage).

You can find all the new options at the GitHub link above.

As a reminder, LPP only removes posts/media older than a specified time if they have not been posted, marked read, voted on, commented on, had comments voted on, or saved by users on your instance.

 

Hi all,

I'm currently using Firefox with a self-hosted sync server, and since I have to use Chrome on a Chromebook (because Firefox for Android's UI is terrible for tablet/laptop mode), I use Floccus to sync there. I've been using this setup for years and it works great. (And no, I don't want to run Firefox for Linux on the Chromebook, it doesn't work well.)

However, I'd like to switch to a standard browser that has a tab-based UI on Android tablets (vs Firefox's click the box, then choose a tab from the list method). I'm looking for a browser that is Open Source (sorry Vivaldi) that I can use in Linux and on Android with a UI that's good in tablet/desktop mode. It must support some form of self-hosted sync, preferably for settings/themes/etc in the browser.

Does anyone know of anything? As far as I know, nothing exists short of Chromium with no settings sync and something like Floccus. I've built sync extensions before, so I'm tempted to look at Chromium source and see if I can modify it to sync to another API interface.

Thanks.

 

My understanding is Element for Android uses silent notifications out of the box. From https://github.com/vector-im/element-android/blob/develop/docs/notifications.md#how-does-a-mobile-app-receives-push-notification:

The push gateway is configured to only send (eventId,roomId) in the push payload (for better privacy).

My question is, does this apply to rooms that are not end-to-end encrypted?

Use case: I have a private non-federated Matrix instance that I use to bridge other services (Discord, Signal, IRC, etc). These are connected on my private network so no need for E2E here. However, I would like to ensure when Element sends the push notification for those rooms to my phone, that they're not sending the messages themselves, but rather just the metadata to gather the message from the home server securely.

 

Hi all, I'm a Lemmy FOSS app contributor that's made a couple of tools for people starting small instances including Lemmy Community Seeder (LCS) for building content on new server's All Feeds and Lemmy Post Purger (LPP) for clearing old posts on smaller instances.

Today I'm releasing Lemmy Defederation Sync (LDS). When launching a new Lemmy instance, administrators may not understand the necessity of defederation with problem instances. Using LDS, you can sync your instance's "blocked instance" list with that of another server(s) whose admins you trust.

 

I've never had an issue once its set up. Just a 16GB LUKS partition alongside my normal LUKS partition, a small edit to /etc/crontab so I only have to enter the password once, set the RESUME variable, add to fstab, and rebuild init. This method even works with suspend-then-hibernate on every laptop I've used it with.

This would take 5 seconds at install time, but instead you have to install, reboot to the live USB, shrink LV, shrink PV, shrink LUKS, shrink partition, repartition, grow LUKS, grow PV, grow LV, and finally set up the swap partition as above.

Am I the only one? Does anyone else use encrypted drives and hibernate?

 

Hot on the heels of LCS (https://lemmy.world/post/557346), I bring you Lemmy Post Purger (LPP).

Instances can grow fast, and that can be a problem if you have limited disk space. If you don't mind losing history that your users have not interacted with, LPP can help. It will purge posts along with their comments and media before a certain time period if no comments, likes, or saves exist for users on your instance.

 

When launching a new Lemmy instance, your All feed will have very little populated. Also as a small instance, new communities that crop up may never make their way to you. LCS is a tool to seed communities, so your users have something in their All feed, right from the start. It tells your instance to pull the top communities and the communities with the top posts from your favorite instances.

How to run manually and in docker is included in the repo.

Let me know if there's anything anyone needs it to do and I'll see if I can fit it in. I'm going to work on a "purge old posts that are unsaved and not commented on by local users" first, since small instances are sure to run out of disk space.

 

I.E. delete images in the instance that are over X days old and aren't saved by a user?

If not, I will be writing one.
