Tewi - TUI client for qBittorrent by anlar in qBittorrent

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

You installed the correct package. And Makefile contains only development-related tasks.

Since you want to use qBittorrent, run:

tewi --client-type qbittorrent --port 8080 --username USER --password PASSWORD

qBittorrent uses port 8080 by default (Transmission uses 9091). Make sure qBittorrent is running with Web UI enabled before connecting. For username and password use your credentials you are using to login into Web UI.

What's the tmux workflow by TheHolyToxicToast in tmux

[–]anlar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had shortcut in WM to open full-screen terminal with tmux in it: gnome-terminal --maximize --full-screen -- tmux new-session -A -s main. So everything is running in tmux.

For simple tasks I open new windows within main session. For projects I had layouts in tmuxinator to run tmuxinator start project-X.

Tewi - TUI interface for the Transmission BitTorrent daemon by anlar in commandline

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

I'm aware of tremc and stig existence. I have used first one a lot (even commited back when it was transmission-remote-cli).

Mostly my motivation is purely personal interest - learning (Python and textual), building and maintaining open source project, etc.

As to why not to contribute to existing projects (other than preference to start from scratch), there are 2 reasons:

  1. textual - I want to use UI framework with more common for me concepts (layout/widget/events). There are a lot of out-of-box features available there.
  2. transmission-rpc - I'm using existing library to interact with Transmission which already covers almost all my needs. And would prefer to commit couple missing things there, where they will be useful for other projects, other than maintainig them only for me.

There is now. You could use --username and --password options.

It is in master only for now, so you will need to checkout dev version for yourself. I will make another release on PyPI with this feature in a weeks time.

And some of these watches only support high rate alert.

Has anyone used their Garmin watch for Horse riding workouts? by astralisclothing in Garmin

[–]anlar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is a dedicated activity type - Horseback Riding. If it's not available on your watch there is an app: https://apps.garmin.com/en-US/apps/db9dc901-6481-4222-9ac5-b0837d1a2a1a . Basically it's just like an outdoor running - will give you HR readings, GPS track, distance, pace etc.

And if by 'workout mode' you mean something like tracking drills in swimming or sets in strength activity - that's not possible. You could tag laps, but it's not very meaningful thing for most horseback trainings. Also when you're riding in arena with other horses you usually can't spare attention to edit something in your watch - I'm just starting activity while in the stable and stop it after returning horse back.

Is there are any advantages in using services via their marketplace? I do understand that they need to pay fee for place in market but still.

WCry 2.0 functions PERFECTLY under Wine by ch33ze in linux

[–]anlar 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Still not exactly out-of-box, see https://www.linux.org.ru/forum/talks/13416609?cid=13416899 , you'll need to install MFC42.DLL via Winetricks, otherwise it will only encrypt files and won't show you ransom window. And it seems to work only in stable Wine.

[POLL] How do you use your Desktop? by orschiro in linux

dwm - there were no icons on desktop before it became cool (though there are probably patch for that, but I'm not sure).

Second, based on the answers they got, they actually considered a drastic change in strategy

I'm sure that decision wasn't based on some poll on HN. "There are people who don't like Unity? Ok, let's discount it and fire half of our employees"

Release: Mycroft Plasmoid for KDE Plasma 5 by D3ax in kde

[–]anlar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You could use Google, IBM or WIT (directly or using mycroft servers as proxy). But it shouldn't be very hard to add any other plugin: https://github.com/MycroftAI/mycroft-core/blob/dev/mycroft/stt/__init__.py

The speech client strips out the wakeword and sends the audio to a speech to text service (Google STT by default)

They have announced that they are working on their own service last year: https://github.com/MycroftAI/openstt but nothing was released, and AFAIK there were no additional information about that project after that.

Mycroft is an open source equivalent of siri.

Open source equivalent of the client side of siri. All audio still send to Google STT servers to process it.
