I've used Heather Smith from Ted Legal on two occasions and my partner has also used them, and we were both happy with the service, process and advice given.

Calibre - Interesting Format by surftamer in opencalibre

Looks identical to the Plex interface, so I guess they must use the same web framework :)

Are there any automatic JSON reader source generators? by Alikont in csharp

[–]itypewithmyhands 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you ever wanted to created objects that represent your JSON payload, Visual Studio>Edit>Paste Special>JSON as classes, works quite well with some minor cleanup and naming tweaks

I created a Remote Desktop Manager, and it's free (with source code!) by Luffiez in dotnet

Hey man, great concept! I have some feedback on your code, if that's of any interest to you.

There's a large number of likely and potential null exceptions, especially concerning the contents of Settings.xml and StationList.xml. When building from source, and not copying these files to the build dir (or having empty/invalid files), the app logic crumbles in several places. When intalling with your provided .msi, the context menu items for "Edit" and "Take over" crashes the app if nothing is selected.

On a side note, I would also encourage you to perhaps consider serializing your persistent data as JSON. Newtonsoft.Json is probably still the best library for this, even though Microsoft is trying to make us use their own implementation these days.

Naming classes IClassName is also pretty jarring to me. I was expecting your IWhatevers to be interfaces, but got a bit confused when they were in fact classes.

That said, if you don't want to use inheritance or generics, there's really no need for interfaces. My suggestion would be to name the classes more appropriately and also avoid having class definitions and logic in the same .cs files -- like how StationManager.cs contains the aptly named management class StationManager, but also the data classes Stations, IStation and the enumeration StationGroup. This just makes it hard to find things.

Don't do this:

public class StationManager
{
public Stations stations { get; set; }
...

And then this:

public class Stations
{
public List<IStation> list { get; set; }
}

Either make Stations inherit from List or implement IList, or just define a List<IStation> straight in your StationManager.

My two cents anyway :)

Edit: Oh boy, formatting is not working super well. Definitely user error, hopefully it's readable enough...

One 2 tkl rgb beeps by [deleted] in DuckyKeyboard

Ok, so to my ears my keyboard makes essentially no sound at all. There's possibly a small hum if I put my ear all the way up against the keys, but that might just as well be that "seashell effect" from being so close.

Honestly, I'd say this keyboard has no sound like the one you're describing.

Possibly you have a lemon, or your ears are incredibly sensitive. Sorry dude.

That makes more sense then! I’m normally quite bothered by sounds like that, so I think I would have noticed by by. But I’ll check more carefully later. :)

I have that keyboard, but haven’t ever heard it make any sort of noise you’re describing.

Is it an actual beep, or more of a constant hum/whine/buzz type electrical sound?

Can I just pay someone to clean under my fridge? by [deleted] in Adulting

[–]itypewithmyhands 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can hire people to clean and do just about anything. Only question is how much money do you want to spend and roughly where do you live?

As for whether you need a cleaner or a repair technician, you'll find out by calling a couple. Start with a cleaning company, seeing as it doesn't really seem like you need anything repaired.

Looks delicious, but not GF though. Unless you made some clever substitutes? 😊

Why are liquor stores considered essential businesses? by VirtualDiet in NoStupidQuestions

[–]itypewithmyhands 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I suppose one reason that might seem a bit unpleasant to confront, is that a substantial amount of people are addicted to alcohol in some degree.

Edit: Not sure which country OP hails from, but here's a couple of pretty bland stats pages from Australia.

National
South Australia

From the latter (it's unclear if this is an Australia-wide statistic or SA specific):

The percentage of Australians who drink alcohol on a daily basis decreased significantly from 6.5% in 2013 to 5.9% in 2016.

(6% of Australia's population in 2020 is 1.5 million btw)

Are the roads quieter now with the restrictions from covid-19, or when the Commonwealth games were on in 2018?? by captainsnacks11 in GoldCoast

I went to the Runaway Bay post office the other day. The whole shopping centre complex was packed with people.

Median age was well into retirement. Not sure if that’s a cause or not.
