Do you use KeePassDX on Android? If so, how do you access the vault from Nextcloud?
Specific supported devices, but the list keeps growing.
I use a Xiaomi Mi Band 7. Works pretty well for my needs.
Hoe do you sync it? I’ve been meaning to make the switch to these for a long time now, but still not gotten around to it.
I used to use it for that too, but since the API-thing I got the impression that they all stopped working due to rate limiting?
I love this for redirecting YouTube-links to FreeTube.
What you describe happened in Munich, at least. This is in another state.
Wow, thanks a lot for this thorough answer. I see I need to dust off the old employment contract and see what it says - I’ve had an assumption that any ownership my previous employer has pertains only to any discovery that could be commercialized through patents and spin-offs - this is not that. This work is academic research, and I was required to make any publication openly accessible (with CC-licenses) due to how the work was funded, and this code base contains all the analysis tools that underpin these publications.
The idea that a license added would only apply to code added after the license change is very funny.
I suppose it makes sense if it originally had a license, and you then change the license to be less permissive.
What is more difficult is that earlier commits won’t have that license explicitly unless you rewrite git history to make that happen (which is possible but tedious).
I will probably not do that, but I guess it factors into my second question: That I in that case should make sure to include it in all branches (which are not treated as branches in the common sense, but rather as forks within the repo - they will never be merged to the main branch).
check your contract, you might not own the code and your organization may have a process to determine how to license something.
Good point. I will need to double check the contract, but I believe the ownership restriction has more to do with patents and commercialization. All our output was in general meant to be made public.
Thanks for your answer.
- The license change won’t apply retroactively - I am not sure theres a legal way to retroactively change licenses and terms? I am recalling back to the Unity runtime fee, which they wanted to apply retroactively, but there was a lot of noise/discussion on whether it was legal to even do this.
OK, in that case it may not even make much sense to add a license. There will be no added code to this repo in the future, so there will nothing the new license would apply to.
- Once you have main released version of the repo that contains the license you want to use going forward, any branches from that point should contain license by default? Since its just a file in the main branch.
Yes, you kind of answered this in question 1. Since it is not retroactively applied, it won’t apply to the stale branches that only exist as snapshots of the code.
- Since you are using it commercially, and want to change the license for future versions, you will absolutely want to discuss this with whatever entity is using it. You could choose a license they refuse to accept, and end up not being able to use any future releases. My employer will not use copy-left style licenses for example.
Good point. This is not included in any software that is distributed, it is only a smaller part of an internal codebase used for data analysis. Does that not change things? But to be on the safe side, it would probably make sense to make it as permissive as possible to avoid any issues here. But then again, if it is not applied retroactively then nothing of the code used will be subject to any license. But good thing to remember for the future.
For the most part, I try to set up automatic data exports from these apps that is synced with my Nextcloud server, and my plan is to eventually develop something of a dashboard that allows me to easily view historical data from all these sources, but as of now it more a backup solution.
Really nice, I’ve been eagerly awaiting this beta! Great work!
For playing on a computer and controlling with your phone? If so, there’s KDE Connect that has multimedia controls. That might be what you are looking for?
Depending on how diverse your taste is, you could always try to branch out to something outside of “similar artists”. Just look up genre names and start checking them out. If you find something you like, you can use the same " similar artists" approach on an entirely new search space.
Perfect, thanks!
They also said that XMP is not supported - does that change anything?
Hm, the Music Assistant at least does not quite accomplish what I hope and it seems to rely on services such as Spotify or YT Music to be integrated. I couldn’t quite evaluate the LinkPlay-solution, but his comment on SD card corruption with RPis made me a bit worried for the balenaSound approach. I guess there’s a lot of write operations in such a setup, that can easily corrupt the SD cards. I wonder how often they kept failing for him - maybe it’ll end up being some sort of a “subscription fee” 😅
My wife says no more toys at the moment, but if I were to implement this, I’d probably pick up one of those Up2Streams for each room and try out the LinkPlay integration.
Then you have something to put on your list for Christmas, if that is something you celebrate :)
As long as you are connected, I think network adb will stay active but if you leave your network f.e., you have to re-enable it in the developer options. But don’t take my word for it. Feels like google changed this behaviour every major release with android.
Oh, if that is the case, this will not work. I’ll test it out later this week to see.
On their blog they say: This project is made possible by the awesome work of various open source projects, including Shairport Sync for Airplay, Raspotify for Spotify Connect and Snapcast for multi-room audio sync. So they “just” glue existing stuff together which leaves you with roughly the same limitations as if you would do it yourself. It might allow spotify to be used with snapcast for multiroom but as I’m a yt music user I didn’t digg any deeper.
Hmm, maybe I misunderstood it. Here is a blog post that shows how it can also use Bluetooth. To me, it sounds like that makes an app agnostic solution as long as you are fine with using Bluetooth. My understanding is that you then just connect to one of your speakers with Bluetooth when you want to cast, and you can then control which speakers the audio should play from. I will research this more. I should order a 3.5mm jack extension to the Pi Zero W, which is the only part I miss to be able to set up a proof-of-concept at home.
Is Kdenlive no good? Always heard good things, but I don’t use those kinds of software.
