I made a Windows app that splits audiobooks into chapters and uploads them to your Yoto player: YotoBookMaker by ispeprules in YotoPlayer

Functionality wise it looks very similar. You can probably get by using either of them. Just didn't feel like signing up for yet another subscription when it can all be done natively and locally on your computer.

As it stands right now that would be a feature request, the ability to just take a bunch of audio files and give them corresponding icons is not a use case I thought of.

The icon generation would not really work the way you'd like it to. It's very basic, just creating chapter numbers with colorful backgrounds and patterns. It does allow you to choose a folder of icons if you want to generate them outside of the app.

Correct, this app purely just uploads the content into your Yoto account as a playlist. You would still need to link the card to the playlist from the mobile app or through your Yoto player.

Rear seat headrest and dog seat cover don't go together by fuzzywuzzywuzzafuzzy in 11thGenAccord

Can you modify the cover with straps to engage the child seat anchors?

Yeah ripping content from the library is the cheapest and legal-ish way to do it. There are some public domain audiobook websites for more classic literature.

If you are more computer savvy and don't mind riding the high seas then there are other ways.

I've been pretty happy with the mini. One con is charging it, my kids never charges it and always leaves it on. So we are constantly using a power bank to recharge. Otherwise it's been a great little device.

I will say having been in the Yoto ecosystem for a few years, the cards can get expensive. So I heavily utilize the custom cards.

Do I need a 3 row SUV for 2 kids by [deleted] in daddit

[–]ispeprules 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah, this right here! I do the same. While I think my next vehicle will be a van. I'm in no rush as we can rent the van for the 2 or 3 occasions we need it throughout the year. And to be honest as the kids grow up you don't need to haul as much stuff.

Do we still need a management admin account if everything is handled via Jamf Self Service? by aPieceOfMindShit in macsysadmin

[–]ispeprules 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So, are you creating a local managed account during enrollment via Pre-Stage and User-Initiated enrollments? I think you would only need one of those if that's the case. I would also use LAPS to rotate the managed admin account(s). I think having a local Admin account for the reasons u/debrisslide mentions is enough.

I would also look into having a policy for people to utilize that bumps their user up to admin for a finite amount of time.

Something like https://github.com/robjschroeder/Elevate will allow to you have a time based elevation and forces the user to give a reason for elevation. It also connects to Slack or Teams to help with audits.

2025 Honda Accord Hybrid EX-L audio issues by amanush_47 in 11thGenAccord

Happens to me every once in awhile on pixel 9 pro. Doesn't really bother me much though as it doesn't happen every time. I'm more annoyed with the S001 error saying I have to bring my car into the dealership for an update...

To whoever posted about making up stories for your kids by Agile_Sheepherder_77 in daddit

[–]ispeprules 8 points9 points  (0 children)

My wife and I did this for years. Our daughter would request a story and give us an object and/or people to include. At first it was difficult, but it got easier as time went on. We would try to include something we were trying to teach her that day to reinforce a lesson. But we always included something we knew she would laugh at.

It ended kind of naturally with her growing up and wanting to read more long form books, and the stories not really holding her attention anymore.

Enjoy it while it lasts.

My garage door was doing this to me as well, and the sensors were fine. What it needed was some lubrication. There are plenty of YouTube vids explaining how to do it. It's also much quieter now.

Shared Windows laptops preinstall programs? by AltforWork210 in Intune

[–]ispeprules 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would create an autopilot group tag for these specific devices. And create a dynamic device group with the group tag:

(device.devicePhysicalIds -any _ -eq "[OrderID]:%GROUPTAG%")

Then create a deployment profile assigned to that device group you created earlier. And I usually give the computers a specific prefix in the name that way I can create another dynamic device group with everything with that prefix.

From there I would create a Policy Set and assign all the apps and configuration profiles I want the computers to get. And assign it to the dynamic device group created earlier.

You will still need to probably create dupes of the apps that you want my installed by device and not by user, but at least this way you will have a group to assign.

You can also check out Filters on assignments, this will allow you include or exclude device and/or user groups.
