From the title my stupid brain thought you were looking for flavour powder that made the water taste like it was expired/old (maybe for Halloween or as a joke or something) xD

Oh no, what did I miss this time? 🙈

Additionally stop looking at screens some time before bed, this influences your sleep negatively. Also avoid alcohol.

Most smart watches track your sleeping quality and some allow you to (manually) log such external interferences for you to reflect what might cause the most distress for your sleep.

For example I had the Amazfit GTS 2 mini, which is quite cheap and the app has this feature.

So is music.

Ergo: A Bong is a music instrument. Case closed.

They usually have bot accounts to upvote themselves. On reddit there were a lot of dropship scam bots, on other social media other shady stuff as you said.

In my head:

You: "Mom! Everything looks bad!"
Mom: "I know sweetheart, but even though everything seems hopeless we have to focus on the positive things.."

  • The speed of light is pretty slow at that scale, it would take thousands of years until the mouth is closed.

  • The speed of sound (in air?) is much much slower than the speed of light. See above.

  • How fast? I guess die, because that would cause a whole lot of other problems.

  • Yeah, the gravity would pull the galaxy to it, but it would also take quite some time (one normal galactic year is about 225 million earth years, we wouldn't instantly be pulled with an immense acceleration, we would probably just continue our orbit in a slightly different path or reverse, which would have it's effects but not immediate in our scale, right?)

Hi, I got a new router from my ISP, but it doesn't even have an option to change the address of the DNS server...

So I'm gonna switch (if necessary also the ISP).

I have never used a custom router, so I would appreciate a push in the right direction. What can you recommend? Synology? FritzBox? Asus? Bridge Mode on the ISP router + RasPi?

The following I am running on a separate device, but if possible it would be nice to have it directly on the router device:

  • PiHole
  • Wireguard
  • DDNS updater

Ahoy! I would like to be able to browse movies in Kodi and directly add them to Radarr.

Currently I'm using the TheMovieDb Helper Add-On in Kodi for browsing movies, and then add them to the Trakt Watchlist. In Radarr I'm monitoring the Watchlist and automatically add the movies that way.

Is there a better way to do this?
For example, can I configure/use some special player in TheMovieDb Helper for adding the movies directly to Radarr or Ombi when I clilck Play? Or is there an other Add-on that does something like that out of the box?


UPDATE:

I'm working on a plugin that can be used as a player for TheMovieDb Helper. But instead of actually playing anything, it uses the information to add the movie/show to Radar/Sonarr via the API.

The PoC was successful, now I have to put everything neatly together.

I'll create a new post once the first version is out.

What's a good way to have a simple self hosted (in Docker would be nice) web interface for starting yt-dlp jobs?

Preferably, I would like to have pre-defined yt-dlp commands and in the interface I can just add an URL and select which command to chose.

I know I could also use JDownloader or other tools to download the media, but I specifically would like to use yt-dlp because I have multiple use case commands already defined.

Thanks for the help!

I'm about to try some custom wake words, I can think of these so far:

  • Hey Assistant
  • Hey GlaDOS
  • Hey Skynet
  • Hey Tardis
  • R2-D2
  • CPU
  • Computer
  • Operator

I'll use them for a while and see which one I like best.

What wake word are you using? Do you have some other cool ideas?

So this is quite specific and I tried to fit the important stuff in the title, but here's further elaboration (because it is definitely needed).

When I remember documentaries about earth or universe (specifically how it was formed, big bang, or how the moon came to be, etc) from the nineties and early 2000s, then they seemingly all used the same kind of background music. Something that I can only describe as Old school LoFi, smooth but kind of exciting electronic beats.

Does anyone know what I'm talking about, and what this music really was called? Do you maybe even have some examples?

Thanks!

Edit: New Age fits best, Vangelis and Jean-Michel Jarre are really close to the (probably unknown) artists of the songs that I have in mind. The other recommendations are also great.

Jean-Michel Jarre - Oxygene pt. 13, or Era without lyrics, is as close as I can get from what I remember.

Now I hope that I come across one of those documentaries online ^^
