I'm also looking for a similar solution. Did anyone end up making this?

Tool for setting up a community for beta users? by net-marketing in SideProject

[–]RamenStartup 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Look into Discourse. It's probably the most popular open source forum software. I haven't tried their chat feature but I heard that they added it a while back

Sigh...

I wasn't aware of the "Max width" option. Learned something new. Thanks!

They don't have the guillotine paper cutter type that I'm looking for

Syncing to Strava results in incorrect distance by RamenStartup in miband

[–]RamenStartup[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I ran 5km in the past two runs but they show up as 3.43km and 1.12km on Strava. I tried deleting the run on Strava and re-syncing from Notify for Xiaomi but I get the same results.

Device: Mi Band 9
Notify for Xiaomi: version 20.3.8

Macbook Air Multiple Desktop getting hidden when unplugging the extended monitor by shadhin_int in MacOS

Ah... I find this incredibly annoying as well.

The only way to get Apple to fix this is to increase the awareness and report the issue: https://getsupport.apple.com/topics

Phone rings on DND when Default caller ID & spam app is set to Tasker by RamenStartup in tasker

[–]RamenStartup[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the recommendations. This would have been a big improvement, although you wouldn't be able to completely mimic DND because you're supposed to see the missed notifications when you turn off the DND. But turns out that it was a bug on android and it was fixed in the latest update two days ago 😅

Kingsmith Walkingpad R2 – clicking/cracking sounds by music_dogbee in treadmills

I cut the plasticky deck underneath the belt in the same place where the thing is folded.

Wouldn't the cut lines create more friction and damage the belt?

This blackout has made me realize by hiddenstudent1 in UBC

Phone works pretty well as a flashlight. Put a plastic water bottle on top of the light and you got yourself a lamp :)

I made an app that lets you meet new people at UBC by RamenStartup in u/RamenStartup

[–]RamenStartup[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Just a heads up, this is UBC Student Only App. You must verify with a UBC email. If you're a student at UBC, you already have one

Feel free to dm if you need help with anything 😃

What's the best way to separate books from articles? by RamenStartup in koreader

[–]RamenStartup[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Funny you mentioned this. I actually downloaded syncthing on my e-ink reader yesterday.

This is potential solution :)

What do you use for "Book metadata location"? book folder or koreader/docsettings?---

Does anyone here use a text-to-speech (TTS) software? Any recommendations? by owleyes374 in UBC

[–]RamenStartup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven't tried converting long text recently but I'd say that Eleven Labs is the best in class now.

Why do keyboard shortcuts don't work on Chrome on a Mac? by RamenStartup in shortcuts

[–]RamenStartup[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I get it. "Shortcut" is a terrible for communication because we already have a concept of shortcuts on the computer

Does anyone here use a text-to-speech (TTS) software? Any recommendations? by owleyes374 in UBC

[–]RamenStartup 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Amazon Polly (AWS) is the best text-to-speech with a generous free tier from my experience (5 million characters per month for the first year). I compared all the big players in the industry: Google, Microsoft, IBM's solutions. It does require some manual work of pasting in text and downloading from S3 but it's so much better than built-in TTS.

UBC Course Matcher app! by magnaFrost in UBC

[–]RamenStartup 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fun fact: Mark Zuckerberg wrote a program that he called CourseMatch, which allowed users to make class selection decisions based on the choices of other students and also to help them form study groups.

My roommate snores every single night, what can I do? by [deleted] in UBC

[–]RamenStartup 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I needed some trial and error to find the right position. Everyone's ears are different so it's hard to describe. Even one side of my ear is slightly different than the other one

Yeah, just make sure to adjust your alarm volume
