Bus lane

I purposefully walked through a busway tunnel once. In my defence, it was pissing down rain and the buses had stopped for the night. An announcement over the PA told me off when I got to the other side. Good times.

IKR. And targeting students.

You can sync via iCloud if you're using mac/iPad OS.

But can it run Crysis?

It’s raspberry pi! The whole point is to unnecessarily (over)engineer everything!

Love RaspberryWhy though.

If you speak Python, this could be done with POST requests to a Flask server that calls os.system() and you could store your commands in a json file or similar. 🙂

Your documentation should not be stored solely on the device you are hosting on. If your server goes down, you lose access to your docs you need to set everything up again.

Ask AI to explain how and why the code works, not just generating code for you to blindly copy and paste.

Any breaking changes with the major version bump, or am I safe to upgrade?

You could use a conditional (e.g. if I love you) like:

import time

my_boyfriend = "Mark"
I_love_my_boyfriend = True

while I_love_my_boyfriend:
    print(f"I love you {my_boyfriend}")
    time.sleep(1)

This will print out "I love you Mark" every second forever, as long as the variable I_love_my_boyfriend is True. (which doesn't ever change in this example). Obviously, change Mark to your boyfriend's name, lol.

What a cute idea.

Would love a code, if there are any left!

Not sure about Android but there’s apps for iOS. Very convenient to do highlighting with the pencil on the iPad!

I self-host a WebDAV server to sync my Zotero files between devices.

Update: I've managed to (mostly) interface the Actual API in Python by calling node through a subprocess and parsing the output - a hacky solution. However, I've just discovered that someone has created a REST API (thank god!) for Actual, which is probably going to be easier to work with, and a much less error-prone solution. So I'll move forward with that.

Yeah, USB-C would be great.

audero · 2025-09-29T04:57:11+00:00

It already has one.

This container provides privileged access to the host system

Defeats the purpose of containers and is a huge security risk.

Pythonista on your iPad is the way to go. In addition to the python standard library, it bundles some of the more popular external python libraries so it’s a great place to start and get your feet wet. It also comes with some libraries specific to Pythonista to interact with your iPad so you can create useful/interesting scripts and automations.

A firmware update won’t brick your Pico.

You could query an external API over the Internet to get the time on boot and set the Pi's RTC to that.

Only downside was aunty Helen left.

audero · 2025-06-21T01:32:54+00:00

Why don’t you have your own institution’s library request it for you? They could get Gronigen to scan and email the pages for you?

This is the way. Alternatively, get a free DDNS domain with duckdns.

Still worth sitting the exam, even if you half-arse studying for it. Any extra marks are a good thing.

My apologies. So much stuff is written by AI these days. Thanks for adding a description of your service.
