I considered this as well but didn't really want to mess with the hardware. But if you're up for that you can buy the components yourself, or go for something like inkplate [1] which is an E-paper display + ESP microcontroller and

I don't know exactly yet, but from what I'm now seeing it consumes 3-4% battery per day, with the dashboard updating every 30 minutes for 10 hours a day. I'm only letting it update during office hours, so I reckon I should ge

Yes that should be possible. You could use this as a starting point: https://www.mobileread.com/forums/showpost.php?p=3812831&pos... . With that you can wait for the 'goingToScreenSaver' event and then wri

You do need the screen to kick off the jailbreak process I'm afraid.

Yeah they seem to actively prevent jailbreaking on more recent devices. I specifically picked up a used Kindle 4 NT for this project, because it's so easy to jailbreak.

Thanks for pointing this out! I've been using Aegis for quite a while and didn't know this.

Nice work! I was looking for a wiki system with a similar workflow the other day and was surprised not to find anything. If anyone knows of a wiki system that supports this kind of review/merge flow I'm very interested.

I've been hosting Nextcloud since version 13 and have upgraded 7 times in total, to version 20 now. Never had a single issue upgrading. I'm hosting via Docker, so upgrading is as simple as pulling and starting a new image. Nextclo

I just noticed this project is using a bit of code [1] I put up on GitHub over 4 years ago to create Alfred workflows in Go. I never realized people other than myself were actually using this, wonderful! [1] https://github.com&#x

Nice work! How does it compare to n8n? [0] n8n is the closest OSS alternative to Zapier I've seen so far. [0] https://n8n.io/

I don't really understand this sentiment of not needing a queue system. This is not much different from spawning a thread in Java to delay the email sending. For any serious application you want a job like that to be persisted so you c

This 100%. Dialyzer helps a bit but is difficult to work with due to really cryptic errors. Also the workflow of having the typechecker run as a separate process not part of the compiler feels really cumbersome; it's easy not to notice

Tailwind is becoming the new Bootstrap. It's pretty recognizable in it's default configuration.

I've tried setting up django-webpack-loader but it felt very heavy handed and I didn't like how it forces you to use some non-standard manifest plugin that was pretty buggy. Instead I went with vanilla Webpack outputting files int

The Django Inertia adapter seems to be abandoned [1], what are you using? [1] https://github.com/jsbeckr/inertia-django

It doesn't. In fact it doesn't do anything for assets in general. But integrating it with Webpack is quite straightforward if you're comfortable with Webpack.

We recently used Kind for a k8s workshop. We provisioned a beefy cloud server and ran 15 3-node Kind clusters on it, so everyone had it's own k8s instance without having to install anything locally. It worked absolutely great for this
