Hello all!

I'm looking for a simple to use GUI for my FOSS python project.

I have tried tkinter which is, uh, usable but seriously oldish? Good point seems to be it's basically inbuilt in python so not hard to distribute.

PyQt is on the heavy end, I just need windows, scrollbars and buttons (basically, see below), also I wonder about the license of Qt (it's always a PITA when trying to do C++ Qt) and also what you must package when you distribute the soft.

Must haves:

• Frames (I need two independent lists of files and another with global info)
• Text, buttons & colors, an "open file" dialog. Editable text field.
• Scrollable lists, with clickable icons (ex. "Filename [Delete icon] [Update icon]")
• Async behaviour (so that a thread can update one part when it sees fit)
• Works on most popular Linux
• FOSS (I don't want to change everything when the soft dies, or be on the enshittification ride)

Nice to have :

• Possibility to make pop out windows (like a settings manager)
• Mac & Win support

Cheers and thank you!

I heard the news on the grapevine and digged just the slightest so this is the first link I found.

Maybe true or just another stalling technique?

Hello all !

I have a docker image that you can run with:

docker compose -f compose_10f.yml up

The compose_10f.yml looks like this:

services:
  setup:
    image: tenfingers_10f:v1
    volumes:
      - ./:/data
    working_dir: /data/

Which makes the image believe it runs in ./ so if it saves "./hello" it will be saved in the folder where it's launched (it works).

The thing is, it's a command line program (named 10f.py), not a server or such, so I'd like to run it like this:

docker run -v ./:/data -w /data/ tenfingers_10f:v1 10f.py

And it works with the exception it doesn't get to run in the mounted ./ folder.

It confuses the "mount" (or I'm just lucky the compose file works?) and it believes it lives in /data/, not in ./

python3: can't open file '/data/10f.py': [Errno 2] No such file or directory

I did struggle to set this up in the compose file, but I'd like to make the images run in a specific directory thinking they are in ./

Any ideas how I can figure this out?

Cheers and thank you so much!

Hello all,

I'm playing Knights of pen and paper for the second time, it's a nice time waster IMO (free part is better than the paid one, again IMO).

Last cRPG I really liked was Neverwinter Nights, but it has sure aged a little bit.

Would love a lazy rpg on android or a slightly more story rpg on linux (no graphic card 😅).

Any recommendations?

Thank you all 💖 !

Hello all!

I hava a xiaomi (redmi note pro 9) and its battery seems to start to flake out a bit, or I'm using it more or why not both?

So from time to time, like now, I'm at 19% but it's 22:36 and it will most probably be OK, but if I want some more time before bedtime I tried to hook up my old 5Ah (or as they cleverly say 5000mAh) powerbank to charge up a bit during important scrolling and film viewing.

It works, but almost by just slowing down the deteriorating of the charge level...

Is there some small battery packs that can actually deliver, and also allow that delivery to said phone (I have a couple of wall chargers, usb cables that interdicts the real fast charge)?

I have only found big powerbanks that seems to deliver.

Thank you all!

PS. Like a smaller one than the 5Ah one ❤️

Hello!

I have some weird problems since I upgraded from 0.18.4 to 0.19.1 (I did it incrementally).

Posts doesnt seem to show up any more, for example if I, on the web (just to illustrate, its the same with Jer oa or Voyager) go here:

https://lemmy.sdf.org/c/permacomputing

I can see a bunch of posts.

But if I go through my server:

https://lemmy.mindoki.com/c/permacomputing@lemmy.sdf.org

There is no pists at all (I have refreshed, waited, reloaded...).

I do see the page of the community on both links though.

Anyone having an idea about what could be wrong? Am I banned everywhere (I have never been to lemmy.sdf.org before and I usually don't behave bad online at all).

I'm asking here because the lemmy.ml and lemmy.world support has tge same problem (??).

Cheers

Hello !

On my PC I use a torrent client that's FOSS and that only works if my VPN is running. It's great!

Is there a similar soft for mobile (Android)?

Harr & Cheers!

Hello,

At my new work I got this very lightweight Jabra headphone & micro on a stick (IDK but it looks like a Biz 2300 Duo). It works very well (sound and micro), but the cable is some of the devil's work, it's rubbery and it sticks on anything, there is some stupid heavy connector perfectly at the worst part of the cable, roll it up and store it (if you can) and it'll come out like a Gordian knot, try to turn the usb 180° to fit in the usb slot and the whole apparatus tries to prevent it by pushing back as the cable is so rigid.

Briefly, albeit being at use only for once or twice a day, and with a good sound, it drives me crazy.

Searching on a search engines nowadays only yields like "why not buy a JABRA" so I'm turning to you in my quest for a lightweight, small, transportable, easy to use, somewhet sturdy headphone with a micro that has a good sound for talking to people (no need for music!).

Cheers

Edit: usb slot not slit
