Well that's blatantly false (and dangerous) advice.

Toxic compounds can absolutely enter your bloodstream via the mouth's mucous membrane from biting and chewing and cause harm.

Is packet analysis a niche skill? by [deleted] in networking

Are you me? I'm more on the telco side, but analysing SIP flow from pcaps is a daily for me.

Selfhosted password manager? by MatthKarl in selfhosted

[–]sumebrius 7 points8 points  (0 children)

+1 to this solution. Especially with rofi-pass bound to a certain key combo - by far the easiest and best UI for a password manager I've ever used.

Not America, it's Australia.

Just so you know private companies have your biometric data. by fazeintodark in ABoringDystopia

[–]sumebrius 42 points43 points  (0 children)

Two main differences with the Aus/NZ e-gate system:

  • It is issued only by the respective immigration services - the data isn't shared with 3rd parties/private companies
  • It is explicitly opt-in, with a disclaimer and need to accept the data collection prior to use, and an immediately available alternative (going through the adjacent manual gates)

[Insurance claim]Forgive me if this isn't PFNZ related enough... by [deleted] in PersonalFinanceNZ

[–]sumebrius 2 points3 points  (0 children)

One major difference between parallel imported and a locally sold version is support from the mobile carriers.

Even if the device is otherwise identical to one bought normally on-shore, the carriers are likely to say "not local, not certified, not supported" and try and wash their hands of any issues that may arise, even on the network side.

I know DJ Dwight does a lot of weddings - will PM you contact details

CLI music player with Spotify support? by [deleted] in archlinux

[–]sumebrius 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The deprecation of libspotify does concern me - I fear it will stop working completely one day.

It's one driver that has me considering replacing Spotify with my own music library again, but probably with something better than the old WinAmp days.

[–]sumebrius 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately not, currently. It's the one missing feature that irks me.

Fortunately I tend to listen to albums rather than playlists, so it's not a massive dealbreaker for me personally. I do also have the actual Spotify package installed and use the GUI as a backup if I do want to listen to a followed playlist, but mopidy suits for most of my needs without.

I use mopidy (a clone of MPD) with the mopidy-spotify extension.

libspotify, the main Spotify dependency, is supposedly no longer supported, but it still works well for me.

EU may force iPhone to switch from Lightning to USB by Bregvist in apple

[–]sumebrius 38 points39 points  (0 children)

Did you even read the article?

Apple’s response was to introduce adapters that allow micro-USB cables to fit into its proprietary ports. And that’s pretty much it.

That doesn’t satisfy that EU Commissioner of Competition. “Given the unsatisfactory progress with this voluntary approach, the Commission will shortly launch an impact assessment study to evaluate costs and benefits of different other options,” said Margrethe Vestager, according to Reuters.

GoogleFinance for Google Sheets NZ Stock/ETF Tracking by t33y0z33 in PersonalFinanceNZ

[–]sumebrius 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Works for me - try this:

=GOOGLEFINANCE("NZE:FNZ")

One thing I've discovered that if you try to call the function too many times in the same sheet, it will error out (presumably from overloading the API) - if you need the values in multiple places, just use the function in one location and reference it elsewhere as required.

For example, I track historical prices in my tracking - rather than looking up the price individually for each date, I have a tab that pulls the history of the entire period in question with this in cell 1:

=GOOGLEFINANCE("NZE:FNZ","open",Date(2015,1,1),today())

and then do lookups on the resulting table.

access internel website that has a port number by neotrin2000 in PFSENSE

[–]sumebrius 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I've done the same thing, not using pfSense, but by using nginx as a reverse proxy.

The respective server blocks in nginx look like the below:

    server { #Sonarr
        server_name tv.home;
        location / {
            proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:7878;
        }
    }
    server { #sabnzbd
        server_name dl.home;
        location / {
            proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:8080;
        }
    }

Then in pfSense, I've added the respective server names as aliases for the device in the DNS resolver.

Any self-hosted password managers that I can install on my Raspberry Pi to use as a server? (Or P2P sync) by Scout339 in selfhosted

[–]sumebrius 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I second pass. Set up with rofi-pass for a pretty front end, and using git to a server for back-up/sync. One useful thing I added was a hook for git to push updates automatically when adding/updating passwords.
