    I just tried it. When using it (in a bright environment, had no dark environment/ night at my hands) the time to take the image felt like 1s max. So not that much longer. Also I would like to control the exposure time...

    Exposure time/ shutter speed is capped

    Why is the exposure time/ shutter speed for my phone capped at 1/2 (half a second)? I would like to take photos with an exposure time of up to 30 seconds. Even when installing other apps, like GCam or Open Camera, it is not possible to increase the exposure time. I have an Fairphone 4 with Android 13. In the screenshot you can see that the exposure time (S) is at the maximum value. ![](https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/208b9a6a-d7a4-468f-8aaf-f85d7fd7d621.png) Do you have the same "issue" as me, or know how to fix it?

    Where do I get some "normal" Keycaps, like in the image?

    I am living in Germany and I need some Keycaps, which are not expensive. They don't need to be special, they just need to... work.

    I also had problems with NVIDIA and I made the tough decision to buy a new Graphics card. After switching to an AMD GPU, the Audio issues were also gone... Don't ask me why, I'm just happy, that I have a working setup now.

    Fedora has an annoying release cadence IMO. I have experienced desktop bugs in the early GA releases before which put me off. If I wanted instability I would sooner go with Arch (and I am yet to have many issues with Arch yet).

    Do you mean they are too frequent, or what do you mean?

    I don't know if the use-case you describes fit into my problem. I only have one server and its a physical server. I'm also not really able to extend the number of servers, as I don't really have the budget.

    I am also thinking about installing nix on my laptop, but I need a proprietary library for work, which is kinda hard to install/ not working on NixOS. But we might be able to just use docker for development. Well, that is currently preventing me from installing nix on my laptop, I am still looking for a way to fix that issue.

    I’d recommend it, but would also recommend taking a look at Flatcar Linux which is more or less the same without the IBM dependency (which makes my stomach hurt sometimes).

    Why exactly are the IBM dependencies a problem for you?

    I used debian before for some years, but at some point became tired of manually updating the system (which is probably one of the biggest benefit of FCOS). It takes, however, quite some time to put your first Ignition config together, and debugging is tedious as you have to redeploy to see if a bug / error is now gone (I’ve used a VM for that).

    I can't really find good resources on how FCOS is working and what are the benefits. Is it updating the system/kernel automatically as well as the containers? And what are generally, in your opinion, the advantages of FCOS?

    You can also use container within NixOS and AFAICT even declare the containers which should be running. Also NixOS is sad to be stable, or am I missing something?

    I’m probably the odd one out, but my home server is running Arch Linux. And it’s been really smooth. I do weekly maintenance in the form of updates and cleanup and it’s been reliable since I set it up a couple of years ago.

    I am basically doing the same right now, all by hand. It's just that I am not doing the system and container updates regularly. I also often forget which services I have running and some of the Services I am not even using anymore. I just wanted to give them a try and now they are sitting there, wasting (barely any, but it's nagging me) resources.

    Like you, I also planned to use containers for most everything, but… I eventually decided not to.

    What was your reasoning for not using containers?

    Firstly, I don’t think Docker is intended to be used as a security layer. I could be wrong, but I think it’s relatively easy to escape the sandbox. Although that might be different nowadays.

    You are probably right. It's just something I tell myself to sleep well at night.

    Anyway, I recently switched from Debian to NixOS for my server and it’s so much nicer. Being able to use a single language for configuring everything all in one place is so nice. If I want to try something new, I can just throw maybe 30 lines in a config and it’s there. If I don’t like it, then I can remove that config and it’s gone. Most services you’d want to run on a server are available in the package manager, and many have rather sensible defaults.

    So you are installing your services/programs on your system and not inside a container, which you declare in your config?

    Your beginner keyboard and regret buying that?

    What was your beginner keyboard and which keyboard are you using now? It seems, that a lot of people tend to prefer smaller keyboards with layers. I myself am a bit intimidated by them, and would much prefer a somewhat more traditional number of keys, like the Lili58 or the Sofel has (as for now, I think I will get a Lili58). Do you "regret" buying your first keyboard and would have preferred to start directly with your current keyboard (e.g. for saving money), or do you think that your beginner keyboard was necessary/important for you, to get into Spit-Ortho keyboards?

    Questions before getting a corne keyboard

    I want to get a corne keyboard, but I have a few questions, before I dare to dig deeper into the topic. 1. Can I use the keyboard wired and wireless? Meaning, when I plug in a cable, that it (turns of its wireless connection and) uses the cable connection? 2. Can I also just use one site at a time, meaning that the other side is turned off/unplugged? 3. Which version (`corne-classic`, `corne-cherry` or `corne-chocolate`) should I use when I want to use Gateron Hot-Swap Switches (*not* low-profile)? 4. Do I have to pay attention when buying keycaps, e.g. to also get special sized caps?

The modules I need/want: - Micro SD Card Reader for internal Storage (or just using eMMC Storage, have not settled yet on that topic) - SD Card Reader (large/normal sized SD Cards), with a snap-in/spring mechanism (like with Nintendo (3)DS cartridges) - E-Paper Display (e.g. a [waveshare](https://www.waveshare.com/product/10.3inch-e-paper.htm)) - USB-C Port for charging the battery (and maybe, if possible also file transfer and if possible maybe also to connect to a docking station) - Battery What is your experience with the Compute Module (4) and **do you have good resources for creating my own PCB extension module for the Compute Module** you would like to share? Do you have constructive critique for my project idea?

    I am running Ubuntu server and I am... satisfied with it. It does what it should, no problems, nothing to worry about, stable AF (as any mature distro?). But lately I am thinking about switching to fedora server (I need to reset my system one way or another, because my space on the hard drive for the system ran out of space (it was a small drive)). I am using fedora on my work machine and I really like it, so I thought I could give fedora on my server a try.

    The is the messenger matrix from the German blog Kukitz-Blog (it is a blog with a strong focus on privacy and is in my opinion well informed). But no worries, the matrix is also available in English.

    Maybe you can take some inspiration from the matrix.

    As far as I can tell, Černý Důl doesn't have a train station, are you sure you're not looking at buses?

    Yes, I also meant busses. I should have included that in my message. My bad.

    Also the website you linked shows two connecting buses and the price it shows for this route is a "partial price", meaning you can only buy ticket to the first bus from the site. I would guess the second bus ticket would be purchased on the spot then.

    Ahhh, okay. That explains the price, thank you for clarifying!

    Do you know a good App/Website where I can look up the bus times? For example here in Germany we have the DB App (DB = Deutsche Bahn = german railroad).

    Traveling per Train in Czech

    Hi everyone, First off sorry for posting in english, but I don't speak czech. I will be traveling by train from Germany into the Czech Republic (Černý Důl). I was able to book the route to Prague without any problems at the travel center, but I could no longer book within the Czech Republic. I have to travel from Prague to Černý Důl (AFAICT Černý Důl doesn't have a train station, but only a bus stop), but unfortunately I don't know where I can book a ticket or whether I can simply buy a ticket on the spot. I found the website https://idos.idnes.cz, but the prices there are very low at CZK 195 (= EUR 7.85) which sounds sketchy. What advice would you give me about where (website, app, location) and how I should book? Are there any special things I should be aware of, e.g. if I miss a connecting train (German trains are ALWAYS late) what should I do then?

    For anyone who wonders how I solved my issue:

    I created the file ~/.config/systemd/user/protonmail-bridge.service and wrote the following into it:

    [Unit]
    Description=ProtonMail Bridge Flatpak Service
    
    [Service]
    ExecStart=/usr/bin/flatpak run ch.protonmail.protonmail-bridge --no-window
    Restart=always
    RestartSec=10
    
    [Install]
    WantedBy=default.target
    

    If you are not using the Flatpack version of ProtonMail Bridge, then modify the ExecStart value to your installation.

    After that I ran systemctl --user start protonmail-bridge.service to start the service and systemctl --user enable protonmail-bridge.service to make it auto-start upon login-in into my account.

    Launching the App at startup is not my problem (at least not for now). It is rather that I would like to have ProtonMail Bridge minimize into the background applications list (like steam does, shown in the screenshot appended).

  • mobergmann mobergmann 11 months ago 100%

    I just bought a decommissioned computer from a public institution for 40€ (they are usually relatively cheap and still top modern, since companies replace their computers after 2 to 4 years, for tax reasons).
    For this I just bought 2 HDD hard drives (I can only put 2 in; they are relatively cheap in comparison for a lot of storage space) and a nvme2 ssd was already included, there is the OS on it.

    To make the server publicly accessible with a private internet connection (not a business connection), I bought a domain (I bought it at namecheap) and then I set up DynDNS at my domain provider and my router. This was relatively easy (with namecheap and a FritzBox).

    I added a DNS entry that forward all subdomains to my DynDNS. The software, I want to have installed, I then simply install in a docke/ podman container and make a reverse proxy to the docker container via Nginx. This allows me to let multiple applications use the http(s) port from the outside via subdomains, so the URL doesn't need a port.

    I can post the specs later, with an edit.

    Edit: I don't know how much the electricity costs, because I currently don't pay for the electricity. But I have a 200W Power Supply and the machine is idling around a lot, as the service just not often used, but sporadic.

    Is there a reason you're suspecting it wouldn't work?

    No, not really. I was just wondering if that works too. I have an old PC with stand in my room and I must urgently upgrade the memory. For this I wanted to use hard drives, because they are cheaper.
    I've been playing with the idea of getting something like a NAS for a while. And because I always find DIY cool I was wondering if others have already tried it with a framework.

    I didn't consider that you can use the USB ports to connect hard drives. In my naivety I only thought about SATA ports.

    I already feared that, but thanks for the answer!

    however, you're going to be standing there for quite a long time transferring even 10Mbits of data. That's about 25 seconds of holding the devices close together. (You can scale that for Gbits...)

    Yea, 25 seconds is way to long.

    You'd be better off using NFC to bootstrap a more robust, higher-speed connection. Use the NFC as the identification phase of bootstrapping a secure, say, Bluetooth connection or the like.

    I guess I will look into stuff like that.

    How would I use std::lock_guard when using asynchronous callbacks?

    I want to free my code from the 5 `std::mutex::unlock` calls per function in favor of `std::lock_guard`. But I have the problem, that I have to keep the mutex locked when entering asynchronous callbacks. Take this code for example: ```c++ std::map<std::size_t, std::set<std::size_t>> my_map; size_t bar1 = ...; size_t bar2 = ...; std::lock_guard guard(my_map); // lock the map my_map[p].insert(10); foo(bar1, [&my_map](const auto& p){ my_map[p].insert(10); // here we can unlock }); ``` `foo` is computing sth and then asynchronously calling the given lambda function and passing a parameter `e` to it. I need `my_map` to be locked the whole time. Keep in mind, that this is just an code example which might not map the real problem, so please don't optimize my given code.
