This however is the main problem of social media in general. It creates circles of like-minded people where it is really easy to reject "other" thoughts and accept "our" ideas without much questioning. This is less a problem for people who are trained in critical thinking, but might be dangerous for more unstable people.

I'm just saying that a mix of different views is always good to some degree. Whether/how this should be done on Lemmy is a different thing.

Haha right xD

Actually I just recently bought it because I finally want to read it. I'll see if I like it...

Though it is pretty wild they chose a vacuum bot lol.

In engineering school we created a robot that does specific tasks for a contest. It was a lot of work, but that was the main goal. Using an existing device that already has a LIDAR (and probably SLAM) sounds like a very smart move to me, for a project where you want to focus on other problems that have no existing solution yet.

Yes, for me this is a much greater factor than attention span.

Reading The Iliad over the next three weeks on holidays, oh nice!
Reading The Iliad over the next three weeks while having a lot of other assignments from different classes, fuuuck me...

Hi, I got a new router from my ISP, but it doesn't even have an option to change the address of the DNS server...

So I'm gonna switch (if necessary also the ISP).

I have never used a custom router, so I would appreciate a push in the right direction. What can you recommend? Synology? FritzBox? Asus? Bridge Mode on the ISP router + RasPi?

The following I am running on a separate device, but if possible it would be nice to have it directly on the router device:

  • PiHole
  • Wireguard
  • DDNS updater
 

Ahoy! I would like to be able to browse movies in Kodi and directly add them to Radarr.

Currently I'm using the TheMovieDb Helper Add-On in Kodi for browsing movies, and then add them to the Trakt Watchlist. In Radarr I'm monitoring the Watchlist and automatically add the movies that way.

Is there a better way to do this?
For example, can I configure/use some special player in TheMovieDb Helper for adding the movies directly to Radarr or Ombi when I clilck Play? Or is there an other Add-on that does something like that out of the box?

What's a good way to have a simple self hosted (in Docker would be nice) web interface for starting yt-dlp jobs?

Preferably, I would like to have pre-defined yt-dlp commands and in the interface I can just add an URL and select which command to chose.

I know I could also use JDownloader or other tools to download the media, but I specifically would like to use yt-dlp because I have multiple use case commands already defined.

Thanks for the help!

 

I'm about to try some custom wake words, I can think of these so far:

  • Hey Assistant
  • Hey GlaDOS
  • Hey Skynet
  • Hey Tardis
  • R2-D2
  • CPU
  • Computer
  • Operator

I'll use them for a while and see which one I like best.

What wake word are you using? Do you have some other cool ideas?

 

So this is quite specific and I tried to fit the important stuff in the title, but here's further elaboration (because it is definitely needed).

When I remember documentaries about earth or universe (specifically how it was formed, big bang, or how the moon came to be, etc) from the nineties and early 2000s, then they seemingly all used the same kind of background music. Something that I can only describe as Old school LoFi, smooth but kind of exciting electronic beats.

Does anyone know what I'm talking about, and what this music really was called? Do you maybe even have some examples?

Thanks!

Edit: New Age fits best, Vangelis and Jean-Michel Jarre are really close to the (probably unknown) artists of the songs that I have in mind. The other recommendations are also great.

Jean-Michel Jarre - Oxygene pt. 13, or Era without lyrics, is as close as I can get from what I remember.

Now I hope that I come across one of those documentaries online ^^

 

When I open a post, I only want to see the parent comments. To see the reply comments of a specific parent comment, I could then unfold only these replies.

This was one of my favourite features of RiF. Does anyone know an Android app that can do this already for lemmy? Connect for Lemmy, Jerboa, Liftoff and Thunder all have nice collapsing features, but they all only start with unfolded comments, currently.

Jerboa additionally supports jumping from parent comment to the previous/next one with dedicated buttons, which is really nice and also something I was frequently using in RiF.
