Haha, I am a native German speaker, and I had a hard time following them without looking at the subtitles. But then, grammar is a fickle bitch in all languages.
I would like to use wget or curl on Android, mostly to test my webserver against some rules that I set.
I do have Termux on my tablet, but it will no longer install new packages, seems to be abandoned, maybe?
Is there an app/way to have one or both of these commands working on Android (13) without root? My GoogleFoo is failing me.
Thanks for any hint.
Also, don’t use YouTube directly, use Invidious or Piped, and this particular issue would be gone.
It's the convenience. If you want to run a channel, you're kind of damned to sell your soul. 🙃 The question is for how much you'd sell yourself out completely.
Not sure, if these apps run on a desktop computer, though, which is my main workhorse.
So I may try out Firefox's sandboxing capabilities. That should take care of cookies, but I am not sure about fingerprinting.
Do you have the Amazon app installed on the same device
Linux pc. There is no Amazon nor YouTube app for that, that I know of.
what prompted you to look up the horses stuff?
Nothing really. I am more interested in dogs, but wanted to know how other animals are trained and possibly learn something new from their techniques.
I could try Firefox's sandboxing, maybe.
Today I was watching a few YouTube videos about groundwork with horses. First time I did that. Yes, I was logged in.
Later today, I hopped on Amazon to track one of my packages. And in my suggestions, there were horse grooming kits, halters and the like, even though I had never before looked for things like these on there.
My mail addresses are different on the two places, and so are, of course, my passwords. I am on Linux with Firefox, uBlock etc. So this must be an incredible coincidence, a miracle, mind-reading, or maybe witchcraft?
I wonder what I could tweak to make things like this happen less in future. I am thinking of adding a Pi-hole to my router, yet I am no longer so sure, if it would help?
I use DokuWiki for this type of thing. With a few add-ons it is nicely configurable (galleries, discussions etc), could be run from any webspace, and doesn't need a database. You can have ACLs that make sure that only registered users get access. But it is a bit of a DIY solution, and takes a bit of work to set up.
My oldest "security camera" of this type has been online 24/7 since June 2019 and permanently connected to a charger of the smallest type I could find at that time. The battery still holds a charge when I take the phone down for cleaning. Not sure how old the phone itself is (a small Kyocera), probably a 2014 or 2015 model. So, for my requirements, I'd say, it's reasonably reliable.
OTOH, you may be right, and they don't make them like they used to in the olden days, haha.
My cheap and cheerful, but not very secure homebrew solution is a used smartphone, then load any of the motion-detection apps onto it, plus an FTP server app. Then place the phone anywhere within Wi-Fi reach. Run a script once a day on my home server that downloads and deletes the videos from the phone via FTP, and also deletes that footage after 30 days. So the "system" can run indefinitely without running out of memory. The old phones just need to be rebooted once in a while for some odd reason.
I have been using Terminator for years now, because you can easily slice and dice the window into several terminals, and it is reasonably configurable. But then, as I am completely happy with it, I never ventured out to find an even better one, so YMMV.
I think, these are great ideas. OTOH, how much would it cost to reinforce a roof structure to reliably withstand the forces and vibrations of such an apparatus?
The shareholders of the pharma-industry will not be happy. You have to manage a disease, not heal it; that would be detrimental for the balance sheet.
And unhappy shareholders of big pharma is definitely not what we want; if they are happy, we will be happy.
I have been using MapFactor Navigator for decades already. It uses OSM for maps (or Tomtom maps, if you want to go commercial), and you can configure every aspect of the navigation; you can completely geek out on it, if you want.
Not affiliated at all, just a happy user.
An old truck is repaired in order to carry grain all through Ukraine. Then the adventure starts. It really is a very different world.
Video is in French. Subtitles in many languages are available.
AFAIk, on Lemmy there are no "private communities" like they can exist on Reddit or most other forum-software, unless you build your own instance. I think, private spaces do have a good reason to exist e.g. for families or other closed groups who'd like to talk about an illness or other sensitive topic, but Lemmy seems not (yet?) to cater for that, unfortunately.
I find it fascinating to follow chief Makoi's travels.
"Uncle Roger" joins "Cowboy Kent Rollins" at his cowboy-kitchen, and they cook egg fried rice on a way too heavy wok. Hilarious, and an excellent recipe!
Thre could be two other things that I can think of:
Permissions maybe: Try "sudo chmod +x /path/yourscript.sh" to make your script explicitly executable.
Also, the environment of cron doing something may be different from when you do it as root or user. So you should always use the full path to every command in your script; like "/bin/tar" instead of just "tar". To find out, where things are, you can use "whereis tar", and it will tell you, whether it's in /bin, /usr/bin or elsewhere.
I switched two of our boxes over to Debian "Bookworm". And so far, I am completely happy with the change. On desktop, it's still a little rough around the edges, and a few oddities need to be ironed out here and there, but that's nothing compared with the ocean of pain that were snaps for me and my company.
Still a little nostalgic, though, after 17 years of Ubuntu 🫠
Over 65? Like Bill Gates, Steve Wozniak et al? No wonder, we know how to use these things; our generation invented them. I find it hilarious how some youngsters are amazed that we even know how to turn on our computers.
