I hope you’re joking about rebooting to Windows for paint 😁

But just in case, and for the benefit of others: KolourPaint

It’s basically KDE Paint, and works great as a simple image editor

I’m in this picture and I don’t like it

Yeah Track&Graph is great. I also use it for tracking exercises and weight, and just use the built-in graphs to see the trend over time

They were too preoccupied on wether they could, they never stopped to question wether they should

Dogs really are the best people

The price is also including 19% EU tax which you might be exempted for if shopping from outside EU (hopefully to a country with less than 19% import tax).

But yeah, while Linux can work great for a lot of usecases, I’m not gonna pretend it’s always easy and always works 100%, especially if everything you do is geared towards Windows. It works for me, including gaming ^^ your milage may vary.

(But just for the sake of “lol get Linux” memes :P there’s always VirtualBox for trying out and playing around without messing up anything xP)

I know your pain! (Cries in Nvidia laptop) when i bought mine i literally couldn’t find a laptop with AMD graphics in my region.

There is some hope these days. In addition to the previously mentioned Frameworks laptop, there’s also this TUXEDO Sirius 16 - Gen1. (Tuxedo is a German company specializing in Linux-compatible computers). It might not be exactly what your looking for, but AMD graphics laptops are so few and far between I thought I should put it out there.

I third Proxmix

I run most stuff as Docker images inside a VM, but also a few services as LXC containers and some non-docker stuff in other VMs

One way is to make a new “entity”, that’s not actually linked to your previous temperature sensor. I’m not familiar with how to tie them together in a “device” like how ZigBee2mqtt auto discovery does.

So just add a new “sensor”/“entity”

  - name: "Sala_battery"
    unique_id: "temp_sala_battery"
    state_topic: "zigbee2mqtt/temp_sala"
    value_template: "{{ value_json.battery }}"
    unit_of_measurement: "%"

Use MQTT Explorer to listen to your ZigBee2mqtt broker topic “zigbee2mqtt/temp_sala” to get the exact field name (battery, battery_state or some such)

The biggest problem with Discord is that its an information black hole. Its not properly searchable and not indexed by search engines.

Discord is fine for casual chat, but horrible when used for forum-type discussions and even worse when used for documentation.

You see the same problems being discussed and solved again and again, but you cant just “link” someone the solution like you could with a forum thread cause its spread out over 3-10 chat messages that are interleaved in-between other topics being discussed in the same room

Anything of long-term value for the project (forum-type discussions, documentation etc) should not recide in Discord

Thanks for the clarification.

Are there any plans for a built-in sync feature in the future?

Does that mean TreeDome is the only program that can meaningfully open the notes file?

Is there a mobile client planned? Or do you know if any current mobile apps are able to read the TreeDome notes file?

With everything stored in a single file, does that mean you need to close Treedome on ComputerA before it can by synced to ComputerB?

If computerA makes an edit in one note while computer B makes an edit in another note, does that create a sync conflict? (Assuming syncing with Nextcloud, syncThing or similar)?

There’s a list of reasons under Origin and Namesake

Although for me having everything stored in a single database-file is a negative, I much prefer a directory with individual files, accessible from any software. So I’ll have a closer look at CherryTree, thanks for bringing it to my attention

Woohoo, so glad to see some of these fixes getting backported to 5.27

Shift+dragging windows to custom-tile them now works even if you’ve set your keyboard to do something exotic like emulate the Caps Lock key when pressing both Shift keys together

But who’s this real life space bar heater ? :D

Suddenly I feel very happy (and a little bit smug) about my 2 year old Sony Xperia which both a notification LED, headphone jack and micro SD card slot.

But a replacable battery is sorely lacking…

I think I’ll go with the latest Fairphone when my current needs replacement, but I’m a bit worried about it’s lack of water resistance

Maybe it’s a different culture, or matter of car and people density, but in my country (Norway) most people cycle on the sidewalk. Including kids of course, from the age of 10 they can cycle to school instead of having to walk.

Many footpaths here are also officially designated “cycling and walking paths”. Generally the only cyclists you see in the road are sports cyclists in racing bicycles and tight skin suits.

The thinking here is that cyclists and pedestrians are both “soft traffic participants” so they share a space, while “hard traffic participants” like cars, trucks and motorcycles are kept separate.

Pedestrians do have right of way over cyclists. As the heavier faster party, cyclists have the responsibility to avoid conflict, by giving right of way, and slowing down and/or chiming their bell to signal their presence before passing pedestrians.

Personally, if I was told that tomorrow I’m only allowed to cycle on the road, I would get rid of my bike. If I’m gonna be on the road full of lorries busses and SUVs going 60kph, I’d rather just be in my car. It’s just not worth the risk and constant peril. This is in a more suburban and industrial/commercial setting, where the sidewalks have gaps to buildings, and pedestrians are far apart.

I can however see how in a dense, crowded downtown area where the cars mostly drive slow and the sidewalks are dense with people, that cycling in the road makes more sense.

Thinking about it the only roads with 30kph limit and a sidewalk are in the very center of the city. All other places with 30kph are basically neighbourhoods etc where there are no sidewalks and everybody shares the road. Roads here with a dedicated sidewalk also have higher speed limits that what a casual cyclist can achieve

People often rode them on sidewalks posing a danger to people walking.

I’ve seen this sentiment around, but where else are you supposed to ride eScoooters and bicycles? Of course ideally they belong in the bike lane, but most places don’t have bike lines, so the alternatives are sidewalks or in the road with cars.

If we’re gonna get people out of cars, we need to recognize that walking+transit doesn’t work for everyone a lot of people and that a bicycle/ eScooter is the solution (look at Amsterdam/ Copenhagen how well bicycles work) , but bike lanes don’t get built overnight, especially when few people cycle, if their banished from the safe sidewalk and only allowed to cycle in the dangerous road.

(I’ve lumped bikes and eScooters together since they both solve the same problem of rapid personal transport, both having speeds of 20-30 kph which is significantly more than pedestrians but less than cars)

Where are all the sedans and station wagons? Enough SUVs and crossovers already. Well there’s a handful sedans in existence at least.

And in Europe there’s somewhat decent selection of hatchbacks

Sounds like the FDA should be involved here somehow…
