  • I use syncthing all over the place for this sort of thing. I have some sync directories that are multi way synced across multiple devices, others that are one-way drop targets to a specific device, others that are for operations like backing up photos. It's quite excellent with a good sync algorithm that rarely results in conflicts.

  • Another suggestion for Darktable. It handles this case of mixed types transparently. It's a big thing to learn, but extremely powerful and capable, and you don't have to know all the corners of it, just enough for your workflow.

  • Address already in use is the key - something else has already bound to that address:port combination. Next step is to find out what process is listening on it. Try ss, netstat, lsof to name a few hints.

  • ESPHome is amazing - there's so much you can do without writing a single line of code.

    I have built a few projects around the platform - a boiler monitor that tells me temperatures and state of zone valves, an energy monitoring system tracking electricity usage and solar export, and a hot tub mod that inhibits the heater to reduce grid import and maximize self consumption of solar. They have all been rock-solid stable.

  • ZHA here. I picked it since it's a bit easier to set up with less bits. It works for me, so I didn't see a reason to change it. I have done channel changes a couple of times with no issue - maybe I just got lucky!

  • FreeCAD. It's fantastic but takes some getting used to. I recommend the Ondsel fork - it's still free and open source except for the cloud storage which you can ignore. Ondsel includes some newer features and some interface changes.

  • It's not that bad, glue and screw. Remove the inner board from the drawer front and reattach it to the drawer first. You might have to clean up the MDF a bit. Use filler if you have to, maybe, but don't use nails. Then reattach the drawer front - again with screws. It might not look perfect, but it'll probably look fine when the drawer is closed. Consider wood block fillets at the interior corners (sacrificing a bit of space).

    Alternatively you could rebuild the drawer frame, using the same drawer front so it matches.

  • Just don't open the drawer if you don't want the drawer - doesn't that make the most sense versus looking for something with few features? Never look to Apple for the right answer - that is always a good place to start.

    Nova launcher lets you customize how the app drawer is opened - so you can turn off gesture opening via one of the other options. Nova is a great launcher, I switched to the paid version a couple of years back and found it to be my favorite. I just wish they'd launch Nova 8 which has been in beta for 2 years already.

  • I just put it in my dryer at 40C for a few hours with little regard to a target humidity. I also live in a dry climate where the ambient humidity is low, so maybe it's not enough in wetter climates, but this works for me.

  • So what do I have wrong here?

    Nothing, as far as I'm concerned. I guess DEs have to constantly change or they become stale to some people. I'm an older guy than the normal demographic here too and stale is exactly what I want. I run i3 with a bunch of terminals, a browser, and sublime text when vi in a terminal isn't enough (yes, it's really vim, but it'll always be vi to me), and I xsetroot the classic weave pattern for my background. That's it. I don't need or want menus, widgets, themes, file managers or anything else. I guess someday Wayland will win, and I'll be forced to do something different, but until then, not changing this extremely productive and efficient environment.

  • I don't use Fedora, but I have ZFS on all my Arch systems for everything (including root fs). So, I'll make a guess - is the package you installed for ZFS a DKMS kernel module, or a binary one? That's the first thing. If it's a DKMS module, I don't see anything on your output showing it was compiled, which would explain the module not loading. If it's a binary module in that package, it must be for the exact same version of the kernel that is installed - exact same. If it mismatches then you need either a different kennel or different ZFS package. In either case, you'll probably need to wire in a hook for your initramfs, but it looks that part might be ok from your output. Hope that helps, good luck. ZFS is incredibly good.

  • urxvt is the only terminal I'll use. Every time I try something else I come back to it because of some basic thing that's not right - usually font rendering which urxvt is one of the few that works well with scalable fonts. It's fast and simple and does everything I need without any bloated stuff I'll never use.

  • Yep, it's because of that proprietary and "every device must be licensed" nature of Z-wave that I use Zigbee devices - I'll pick an open platform everyday over a closed one, even if it has limitations.
