Here is the humongous blog post describing how Boxie, the always offline audio player for my 3 year old was built. Includes files and instructions so you can build your own (if you are brave).

Photo of the audio player. It looks like a Gameboy, but with a speaker instead of a screen. Next to it is a tray with cartridges containing an audio book each. The cartridges are also Gameboy inspired.

Ha! If I click on the "desktop mode" button in the embedded chrome in Fedilab it works also. That checkbox you saw in the last screenshot.

@cadey
LTE. I just copied the link in Chrome and there I passed the check. Also tried again with the in app browser and failed again. As far as I know this in app browser is just a chrome webview

@cadey
No. Tested in the in-app browser in #Fedilab on my Pixel 9 with the android 16 beta.

Das erinnert mich an die Mensazeiten. Dort gab es eine Nudelbar mit einer "ein Teller pro Gast und das Essen darf nur den Teller berühren"-Regel. Als die zur Verfügung gestellten Teller keiner geworden sind und die Preise erhöht wurden wurde das recht schnell zu einer Optimierungsaufgabe für uns. Welche Nudelformen müssen wie mit welchen Saucen geschichtet werden um die größtmögliche Portion zu bekommen.

Bypassing disk encryption on systems with automatic TPM2 unlock – oddlama.org/blog/bypassing-dis

oddlama writes: '"Most TPM2 unlock setups fail to verify the LUKS identity of the decrypted partition. Since the initrd must reside in an unencrypted boot partition, an attacker can inspect it to learn how it decrypts the disk and also what type of filesystem it expects to find inside. By recreating the LUKS partition with a known key, we can confuse the initrd […]"' #tpm #linux #Encryption

I’ve made an incredible discovery. I installed Monopoly CD-ROM (1995) on my XP machine. It came with a program called WCHAT, a chat client for several Westwood games. Imagine my surprise when it connected right up to the server!

Time to install wireshark… (1/n)

@PILED3D HDMI and power cable. This is a semi mobile monitor. The screw holes are this because I had no shorter screws with the right diameter in the office by the way.

@PILED3D I did something similar exactly one year ago.

@txt_file I just use the thermostat helper [1]. That helper has a automatic/off switch build in. If the state is on automatic then home assistant will switch the socket off/on depending on the temperature. Nothing else implemented on my side

@fink @abulling An Aquara TVOC [1]. But not sure if I would recommend it. It takes two coin cells and they go empty too fast for my taste.

@petko @homeassistant Yes, required in my country for the whole household.

I really like how easy it is to create a thermostat with home assistant!
I wanted to have a way to pre heat the bathroom for giving the baby a bath. The cheap 15€ space heater heats the room but the buildin thermostat was crappy. As I already had an air sensor in my bathroom, I just added a remote controlled wall socket plug I had laying around to the space heater. In home assistant you then can add a generic thermostat by selecting the sensor and the actor (wall plug).
