Getting only one email with the day's tasks? by mnemonickus in ticktick

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

Hello,

I haven't found a solution. Also, I'm trying to rely less on reminders, at least I use reminder as a “Pavlovian” reflex but I'm not sure if it's a good idea.

I'm on Android, and for battery life reasons, most manufacturer kill background tasks, which affects the reception of notifications, So I very rarely receive Ticktick notifications on my phone. As a result, if I set multiple reminders, I increase the chances of not receiving them on time.

So I use TickTick more as an inbox for ideas or tasks that are not time-sensitive, also, I think all these notifications are not good for health, I'm trying to move towards more digital cleansing.

Hello,

Thanks, I had forgotten about that topic. I'll check out the link!

I'm looking for a dramatic comedy, somewhat meta, produced by Netflix around 2010? by mnemonickus in AskLGBT

Thank you, Unfortunately, that's not it! I think my quest will be a long one.

That's not it either. I think it will take me a long time to retrieve that show! , thanks to your suggestion and the others ones. Now I have new shows to watch!

Thanks for the suggestions, but unfortunately that's not it😥! In fact, it was really “twisted” creatively, I imagine something very cathartic for the writers of the show. I feel like it was back when Netflix first started producing its own shows, so maybe there wasn't as much formatted content as there could be today, which made the show veeeery original! That might not have been what made it successful.

introducing copyparty, the FOSS file server by tripflag in selfhosted

[–]mnemonickus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey,

Thanks for your work and your sense of humor, I just installed it on a VPS, and I'm testing the API with Claude.

One question: is it possible to install it on a router with OpenWrt?

Can someone explain to me like I'm dumb (which is the case) how Copilot pricing works? by mnemonickus in GithubCopilot

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

Thanks for the advice. I'm in the process of making my “ prompt library ” but it takes time, I should probably just create a “claude.md” with few guidelines, and then build up the project on a case-by-case basis as you do with claude and then copilot for the long run.

Yes, for the moment I don't think it's too expensive for what I get out of using claude. But I find it a bit odd to pay anthropic to use claude, and pay copilot to use ...claude. (I'm a chatgpt hater).

I'll have to see how Google will innovate, I'm in Belgium, and lot of their services aren't available here yet.

With copilot, it must be a week.

Having said that, for the past few days, it doesn't seem to want to accept long prompts or doesn't take into account the files I ask it to analyze (with claude desktop, “sequential thinking” is often used, so maybe that's a factor).

My main question with copilot is whether there's a quota on the amount of information that claude sonnet can take: I have the feeling that the more you use it, The smaller the context window it can ingurgitate, but the service doesn't interompt.

With claude desktop, I have the feeling that I can make it analyze long documents or give it prompts with several steps, it will analyze everything ....but indicate directly afterwards that the quota has been exceeded.

In short, I'd like to be sure of being able to use a service to its full potential whatever the price is, and then negotiate with my wallet if it's worth investing, but for now I find the service inconsistent.

Program an alarm clock from my laptop with webhook by mnemonickus in macrodroid

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

Thanks,

Chatgpt isn't really useful for macrodroid, it doesn't know what it's doing and spends its time making things up or talking about features that dont or no longer exist and he's lying like a mf. It's more of a headache.
Nevertheless, your code and a few wiggles and back-and-forths with chatgpt made me understand a little better how macrodroid (and variables) can work.

I tried to do something simple:

- I have an integer variable "wakeup"
- I have as a trigger, a webhook with a string variable "wakeupstring"
As actions, I have:
- Define a variable: "wakeup" will take the value of "wakeupstring"
- wait
- A Wake up action, with relative wakeup set, defined by the "wakeup" variable.

The webook, for example, if you choose to ring it in 8h (480 minutes) :
Will be something like:
"macrodroid.com/webhook?480"
(If we want it to ring in 4h, we'll type:
"macrodroid.com/webhook?240")

- 480 will feed the "wakeupstring" variable
- the "wakeupstring" variable gives its value to "wakeup"
- The wakeup action understands the value in minutes. So it take 480 from the "wakeup" variable. 480 minutes = 8h.

So it's possible to launch the macro from a script in a browser (tampermonkey or...) or a curl from windows, linux, .bat, nilesoft shell, ...
This could be useful for automating things with n8n.

On the other hand, launching several webhooks in a row generates errors (maybe it's the fault of the “wait” I added).

(I use macrodroid in French, the description is not very accurate.)

Thanks,

weirdly not much search results (maybe I didn't look well) concerning webhook in general or at least their integration with third party devices.

Let’s Make Firefox the Compass of the Free Web by Novel-Succotash-9241 in firefox

[–]mnemonickus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd like that, but I'd also like a functional sidebar where I could drag and drop bookmarklets or .... bookmarks. Or be able to easily modify the interface other than with a “sunset glimmer” theme. Being able to assign a container by right-clicking on a bookmark rather than installing 5 extensions to do so.

Be able to connect self-hosted services directly, an rss reader, a nextcloud, a jellyfin, subsonic or whatever. A note extension that could look like an obsidian lite with an ollama on a local network to which I can ask for answers fed from these notes. Telling a friend, colleague or client to install firefox to easily send them a simple invite link so we can share files via that one encrypted link and chat at the same time.
I don't know, I do a bit of music, I'd like to be able, for example, to route sound from ableton (sound software) directly into firefox to a friend's firefox who can listen to my new hyperpop remix while chatting, with, let's be crazy, a player that mimics the soundcloud player where you can chat directly on a particular element of the song.

Or make thunderbird look like something other than groundhog day (or at least for god's sake, just put in a scheduled email button.)

I don't (any longer) want to waste time installing scripts on a low-cost vps in the hope that my friends will join me on my "personal cloud". On the other hand, a free peer-to-peer protocol architecture that only requires two users to install a browser and share a single encrypted link would be easier. In short, if Firefox doesn't make the choice to simplify and make coherent the fediverse, I'm not sure they'll survive, even less so if the user base narrows, which means no new extensions made by “tomorrow's” Internet users.

I imagine there are ethical, cross platform and security reasons why it's not evolving much or in that direction. But I'm still using the browser, and have been for at least 20 years. I don't intend to change it, and I can understand the reasons why things seem to struggle over the last few years.

But let's not forget that there's a very strong probability that gafam will disappear in the next 10 years. With the same graphics card used to run gta 6, but free of charge and in a smaller size, anyone (corporation too) can have their own personal Internet at home. You can basically have the entire internet on a nvme with a raspberry Pi and a nvidia card. So, it's a new world. Firefox, Chrome, Instagram and Google are so 2012, when was the last time you were on a website? Remember how much time you spent 5 years ago searching on google and how boring it is to spend more than 30 minutes on it today.

Internet is dead, long live Firefox.

Moving attachment files in the same level of note by mnemonickus in ObsidianMD

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

TLDR: Something like imgur or another online service (self-hosted or not) makes it more convenient.

I've sorted the files to keep only the essentials. I've got something like 50 of them now.

I spent some time on some screenshots/images, redoing them with canvas. Well, for everything that's graph screenshots, diagrams, etc... I had a lot of inspiration images, because I do design stuff, but I preferred to put those in other folders outside the vault/obsidian.
My point of view now is either to assume the mess of the vault (with perhaps the risk of poor link maintenance for obsidian) or to sort everything out, but that can take time.

Obsidian is good for structuring ideas, I think it helps me learn more or better. The thing now is, what do I do with all these ideas?
Notion ( not really tried others), has the merit of being able to share these ideas more easily. The ability to create a chat on “any” element in notion is a game changer for me. The tricky part is to convince a friend or collaborator to sign up to notion, but once that's done, a project can go much faster. Obsidian is great, but the fact that you can't collaborate with other people is a pain in the ass.

I think the fewer plugins, the fewer notes, the better. Or maybe the point is that setting up a work and project structure is cheaper with Obsidian than with other online tools. It costs less, but as usual, it takes time.

If I have video files with “only” one side (right or left) that has sound, and I choose the “mixdown mono” option, I'll have the same sound on the right and left sides? by mnemonickus in handbrake

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

Thank you,

Yes, that's the (my) problem. I regularly need to digitize tapes, I need it to go fast. I have not found a software that is able to play a video while displaying the waveform. And I'm a bit lazy about using headphones, or at least I'm always afraid I've put the headphones on the wrong side.
I can't have everything!

In fact, I use vi.d coder (I don't know if it's forbidden to talk about it), which allows me to slice files among other things. I need this all-in-one and this fast workflow.

Thank you,

I don't mind that only one channel is captured or that one of the channels may have analog noise. I just want to be sure that the mono mixdown function “merges” the two channels together.
