pass probably isn't for you then, unless you find a wrapper or something that lets you put all in one file. I've switched to keepassxc as well, I could never get the browser integration to work with pass.

No, only the file contents are encrypted. The file names and folder structure is visible to anyone who has access to the files.

The files themselves can contain a ton of stuff if you want, but the convention is to put the password on the first line and that's what "pass -c my/file" will copy.

Yeah, my experience with Aqara has been like that: flawless out of the box, pairs quickly with no issues, reports state correctly, all good. Then after a random while (at least a few hours, but within a day) they just drop off the network never to be seen again until I re-pair them.

I even got an Aqara smart plug just to act as a router and pair the Aqara stuff through it, it was better but this time it dropped off after a few weeks. Might've been the battery though, it was a temperature sensor in -20°C.

Running a bunch of services here on a i3 PC I built for my wife back in 2010. I've since upgraded the RAM to 16GB, added as many hard drives as there are SATA ports on the mobo, re-bedded the heatsink, etc.

It's pretty much always ran on Debian, but all services are on Docker these days so the base distro doesn't matter as much as it used to.

I'd like to get a good backup solution going for it so I can actually use it for important data, but realistically I'm probably just going to replace it with a NAS at some point.

I've switched to Flex D, and I'm using Home Assistant to manage peaks. Already saved about 160$ this winter, I really like it.

Can't really help you with Hilo, though. I've avoided that program for exactly the reason you mention, you kinda have to stay within their walled garden for all of it to work.

In the near future: Journalists use AI to turn 1 or 2 sentences into a full article. Meanwhile, readers use AI to summarize long articles into 1 or 2 sentences.

I'm not a Java dev, but I know enough of it to fix simple bugs in the backends I work with. My main issue with it is that 99% of the code doesn't seem to do anything. The clear, obvious place that looks like it handles the feature you're looking for? None of it does anything! It just instantiates another class from God knows where to actually do the work. I swear I spend most of my time in Java projects just looking for the damn implementation in a sea of AbstractSingletonFactoryBean shit.

Israel & Gaza are litterally on the other side of the world, on a different continent. Don't they teach you geography in school?

That's not US politics. And the rule is temporary; the goal is just to get a breather after a months-long marathon of hearing about nothing else on Lemmy.

Coming at this from the JS world... Why the heck would 2 projects share the same library? Seems like a pretty stupid idea that opens you up to a ton of issues, so what, you can save 200kb on you hard drive?

[–] ebc 2 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I'm no Python expert either and yeah, from an outsider's perspective it seems needlessly confusing. easy_install that's never been easy, pip that should absolutely be put on a Performance Improvement Plan, and now this venv nonsense.

You can criticize javascript's ridiculous dependencies all you want (left-pad?), but one thing that they absolutely got right is how to manage them. Everything's in node_modules and that's it. Yeah, you might get eleven copies of left-pad on your system, but you know what you NEVER get? Version conflicts between projects you're working on.

I'm not from the US and my Lemmy feed has been absolutely FLOODED with US political news for MONTHS. Yesterday's vote was the bushel that broke the camel's back, and I definitely understand non-political communities not wanting to be even more flooded with US politics than they already are.

Go complain about your broken country in politics-oriented communities, please, and let us talk about other, less despair-inducing subjects.
