Fellow homebox user here. As an aside: I’ve got a storage room with a bunch of shelves and bins. For each bin, I’ve suck labels on them (using a label maker or sharpie + painters tape), and an NFC tag. Each box in Homebox has its own location, and each NFC tag is a direct link to its instance in Homebox.
It’s much easier to categorize larger quantities of things that aren’t as valuable as vintage media. Ie. hygiene products, off-season clothing, etc…
Bookmarked this to try this setup next weekend!
This is equivalent to asking the road construction workers and engineers to be held accountable for those that break the speed limit
I separate the name from the ID, so the IDs are relative to the specific device only, and the names represent the device and location.
I’ve set the IDs for all my sensors to use a code. The letters identify the type of sensor, and the numbers are sequential when I got them. I also have a label maker and labeled all the devices with their codes.
Example:
AA##
So my first temperature sensor is
TS01
Then the name of the sensor is a little more elaborate, where it includes the type of the sensor, the code, and the location.
{Type} {ID} - {Location}
So my bedroom motion sensor is:
Motion MS02 - Bedroom
Then if I have to rearrange anything, I don’t update the device ID, just the name and how it’s used.
I recently moved and had to rearrange some of the devices. It wasn’t as bad as it could have been as I tried sticking the sensors in the proper rooms (ie all the old bedroom devices stayed in the bedroom). But there were some cases where I did have to rename them & update the integrations.
I’d like to point out that one 747 is ~$400 mill… [source]
Linkwarden user here. Can confirm - it’s a great tool to dump links for later. I’ve setup an iOS shortcut that lets me share links directly to linkwarden. Super handy
I’m not in a country with the age verification thing, but has it been turned on for Lemmy servers?
I was thinking OP could give everyone their own VM to use as a workstation so they could access the files on the server easily, and/or run programs based on their work. When their coworkers leave, OP can easily destroy the VM and the resources would be automatically reallocated (depending on the servers configuration). With a physical device, the storage on that device is only allocated to that device and can’t be shared when it’s not in use
Me, personally? I have multiple VMs for different contexts: my teaching job (super clean, video sharing tools, presentation tools), gaming, media server (has scripts to download stuff off of YouTube), server management (just a regular Debian install), and a fuck around box (I just use it to try new OSs like Fedora, or try breaking OSs like deleting the system32 folder on windows)
I know this isn’t exactly what you’re asking for, but I’d recommend also looking into a VM OS such as proxmox or unraid (I’m running unraid)
They’ll let you create/destroy VM instances you can access remotely. So in theory, you can give everyone their own VM to use and access the files on the server.
However, unraid / proxmox may have performance issues running in a VM on a Mac mini…
This is why I’m not going to buy RAM / Dodge / Chrysler/ Jeep / anything Stellantis owns, and this is why I’m not buying any new car with “smart” / “built-in” junk.
I don’t know of any car that has an actually good head unit. Its either garbage because its a giant touch screen, making it super difficult to navigate without looking (that’s why all the controls in an airplane are different shapes and sizes), or its just a hub for you to run Android Auto / apples equivalent.
Now ads? Ffs…
As much as I want to see Lemmy and the rest of the fediverse flourish; at the same time, I hope it doesn’t.
Once the fediverse becomes popular and gains main-stream attention, the billionaires and political twats will flock towards it and try to monetize it; Morons will flood the fediverse with memes and AI slop worse than !lemmyshitpost@lemmy.world (you know what you’ve done); corporations will start spamming ads for their shitty products; and scammers will start setting up bot nets to coerce users into sending them money to their new AI waifus.
The unbearable weight of all the garbage entering and attacking the fediverse will drive moderators out the door, leaving servers as wastelands of junk. No longer interesting, no longer human. Just trash, like how Reddit, Facebook, Instagram, etc… are today.
So yes, I’ll welcome friends and family into the fediverse with open arms. But I really hope we don’t start getting too many shout outs
They’re already making suggestions. Got one this morning telling me I can ask it for updates on Amazon packages.
Speaking of which, anyone have any suggestions for better smart speakers?
Looking through the docs n’ stuff, this is what I found:
I wasn’t able to find any additional instructions on how to update other than the expected generic steps (docker pull or pip install -r requirements.txt). So my guess at this point is that they have scripts built in to check the version and run upgrade scripts as needed

I haven’t gone through your specific case, but generally what I do when doing a major update with potentially breaking changes:
Beautiful! Great job
