Thanks for the idea. All my browsers are Deb packages, no Snap/Flatpack/AppImage. I am still on Ubuntu for now, but I try to stay away from Snaps wherever I can due to slightly less-than-stellar experiences.

Ha! Thank you! Alexandrite works normally. Not my taste, though. 😀
Is there anything I can do now, or will I have to work with Alexandrite until the normal ui fixes itself somehow?
Thanks bunches for putting up with me. 👍
I have tried all privacy settings, no change. Where can I change the ui, please; it’s not in my account settings?
And Lemmy is the only site that does this. I do not have this issue with any other site, including other Fediverse sites like Mastodon or Pixelfed.
Thanks a lot!
It happens on Firefox (130), Vivaldi and a pretty virgin Chromium. Firefox is a little worse, in that if I press F5 to just reload a page, I am logged out again, no matter the security setting. This does not happen on the other browsers. I don’t really know what to look for in the console; it shows errors in fonts, things like ‘line-height’ and such, nothing that would give me a hint. However, I am not a web-developer and could easily overlook something.
I use external hard drives. Two of them, and they get rsynced every time something changes, so there’s a copy if one drive should fail. Once a month, I encrypt the whole shebang with gpg and send it off into an AWS bucket.
Terminator for me. It has tiles and tabs and does everything I need.
Shamed be he who thinks naughty of it. 🤣
Haha, I am a native German speaker, and I had a hard time following them without looking at the subtitles. But then, grammar is a fickle bitch in all languages.
Ah, F-Droid did it. Thank you so much!
Happy days!
My oldest “security camera” of this type has been online 24/7 since June 2019 and permanently connected to a charger of the smallest type I could find at that time. The battery still holds a charge when I take the phone down for cleaning. Not sure how old the phone itself is (a small Kyocera), probably a 2014 or 2015 model. So, for my requirements, I’d say, it’s reasonably reliable.
OTOH, you may be right, and they don’t make them like they used to in the olden days, haha.
My cheap and cheerful, but not very secure homebrew solution is a used smartphone, then load any of the motion-detection apps onto it, plus an FTP server app. Then place the phone anywhere within Wi-Fi reach. Run a script once a day on my home server that downloads and deletes the videos from the phone via FTP, and also deletes that footage after 30 days. So the “system” can run indefinitely without running out of memory. The old phones just need to be rebooted once in a while for some odd reason.
I have been using Terminator for years now, because you can easily slice and dice the window into several terminals, and it is reasonably configurable. But then, as I am completely happy with it, I never ventured out to find an even better one, so YMMV.
I think, these are great ideas. OTOH, how much would it cost to reinforce a roof structure to reliably withstand the forces and vibrations of such an apparatus?
The shareholders of the pharma-industry will not be happy. You have to manage a disease, not heal it; that would be detrimental for the balance sheet.
And unhappy shareholders of big pharma is definitely not what we want; if they are happy, we will be happy.
I have been using MapFactor Navigator for decades already. It uses OSM for maps (or Tomtom maps, if you want to go commercial), and you can configure every aspect of the navigation; you can completely geek out on it, if you want.
Not affiliated at all, just a happy user.
AFAIk, on Lemmy there are no “private communities” like they can exist on Reddit or most other forum-software, unless you build your own instance. I think, private spaces do have a good reason to exist e.g. for families or other closed groups who’d like to talk about an illness or other sensitive topic, but Lemmy seems not (yet?) to cater for that, unfortunately.
Thre could be two other things that I can think of:
Permissions maybe: Try “sudo chmod +x /path/yourscript.sh” to make your script explicitly executable.
Also, the environment of cron doing something may be different from when you do it as root or user. So you should always use the full path to every command in your script; like “/bin/tar” instead of just “tar”. To find out, where things are, you can use “whereis tar”, and it will tell you, whether it’s in /bin, /usr/bin or elsewhere.
I switched two of our boxes over to Debian “Bookworm”. And so far, I am completely happy with the change. On desktop, it’s still a little rough around the edges, and a few oddities need to be ironed out here and there, but that’s nothing compared with the ocean of pain that were snaps for me and my company.
Still a little nostalgic, though, after 17 years of Ubuntu 🫠
Over 65? Like Bill Gates, Steve Wozniak et al? No wonder, we know how to use these things; our generation invented them. I find it hilarious how some youngsters are amazed that we even know how to turn on our computers.
And that sees to be it. I could set the lemmy.world cookie to “lax” using a cookie manager extension. Now it seems to work, both with F5 and when I leave Firefox.
