I just tried it. When using it (in a bright environment, had no dark environment/ night at my hands) the time to take the image felt like 1s max. So not that much longer. Also I would like to control the exposure time...

 

Why is the exposure time/ shutter speed for my phone capped at 1/2 (half a second)? I would like to take photos with an exposure time of up to 30 seconds. Even when installing other apps, like GCam or Open Camera, it is not possible to increase the exposure time. I have an Fairphone 4 with Android 13.

In the screenshot you can see that the exposure time (S) is at the maximum value.

Do you have the same "issue" as me, or know how to fix it?

 

I am living in Germany and I need some Keycaps, which are not expensive. They don't need to be special, they just need to... work.

See https://lemmy.world/comment/9404186 for a Solution. Spoiler: switching from NVIDIA to an AMD GPU fixed the issue.

I also had problems with NVIDIA and I made the tough decision to buy a new Graphics card. After switching to an AMD GPU, the Audio issues were also gone... Don't ask me why, I'm just happy, that I have a working setup now.

Like you, I also planned to use containers for most everything, but… I eventually decided not to.

What was your reasoning for not using containers?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago) (1 children)

Firstly, I don’t think Docker is intended to be used as a security layer. I could be wrong, but I think it’s relatively easy to escape the sandbox. Although that might be different nowadays.

You are probably right. It's just something I tell myself to sleep well at night.

Anyway, I recently switched from Debian to NixOS for my server and it’s so much nicer. Being able to use a single language for configuring everything all in one place is so nice. If I want to try something new, I can just throw maybe 30 lines in a config and it’s there. If I don’t like it, then I can remove that config and it’s gone. Most services you’d want to run on a server are available in the package manager, and many have rather sensible defaults.

So you are installing your services/programs on your system and not inside a container, which you declare in your config?

I want to reset my server soon and I'm toying with the idea of using a different operating system. I am currently using Ubuntu Server LTS. However, I have been toying with the idea of using Fedora Server (I use Fedora on my laptop and made good experiences with it) or even Fedora CoreOS. I also recently installed NixOS on my desktop computer and find the declarativeness pretty cool (but I'm still a complete beginner) and could imagine that it would fit well into a server setup.

I have quite a few services running on my server, such as Nextcloud, Conduit (Matrix), Jellyfin, etc. and all in containers. I would also rather not install programs without containers, because 1. compose is super easy to maintain and set up, 2. it remains very clear with containers (and compose) and 3. I believe that containers are more secure. But since I also want to make the services inside the containers available, I currently have Nginx installed as a reverse proxy (not in the container, but on the system) and always create certificates with certbot so that I can use HTTPS encryption.

In the paragraph above I actually described exactly the use-case of Fedora CoreOS, but I have no experience with the system and how it works. That's why I'm still a bit hesitant at considering the OS at the moment. I can imagine that NixOS with its declarative nature seems well suited, since, as I have heard, you can configure containers as well as Nginx and with Nginx also https certificates declaratively. But I could also use a base system like before (Fedora Server or Ubuntu Server) and simply install podman, nginx and certbot and manage everything that way.

Have you had any experience with Fedora Server, Fedora CoreOS, NixOS or a completely different operating system for servers and what are/were your impressions with this setup? Or do you just want to share your knowledge here? I would be delighted.

Sadly, using WebCord or WebCord doesn't fix the issue for me :( My sound is still deadlocked somehow.

When I'm in-game (using steam and proton-ge or just proton) and have Discord open, I sometimes (or better often, just not predictable), have no sound. I can't hear the system-sound anymore (including discord) but my microphone works fine, meaning others in a discord call for example can still hear me. When I have Spotify open and music running the issue appears less often. But when it appears Spotify seems to not being able to play a song. There is a small white popup with roughly the text "current song not playable". The same in YouTube, just that the video is not loading (even when it has buffered). When I close my game and Discord the sound is back and Spotify/YouTube is able to play the current song/video again. Also, when I change the Audio Output from my Headset to my music speakers, then the sound is available again (when changing back to the headphones it is stuck again).

The Headphones mentioned are Sennhaiser GSP 960 and the music speakers are the Logi MX Sound. I am currently running stable NixOS, but the issue also appeared on an Arch Linux install.

Did anyone of you experience the same issue as me and found a fix for that, or know how I can debug the problem or can help debug the issue?

What was your beginner keyboard and which keyboard are you using now? It seems, that a lot of people tend to prefer smaller keyboards with layers. I myself am a bit intimidated by them, and would much prefer a somewhat more traditional number of keys, like the Lili58 or the Sofel has (as for now, I think I will get a Lili58).

Do you "regret" buying your first keyboard and would have preferred to start directly with your current keyboard (e.g. for saving money), or do you think that your beginner keyboard was necessary/important for you, to get into Spit-Ortho keyboards?

 

I want to get a corne keyboard, but I have a few questions, before I dare to dig deeper into the topic.

  1. Can I use the keyboard wired and wireless? Meaning, when I plug in a cable, that it (turns of its wireless connection and) uses the cable connection?
  2. Can I also just use one site at a time, meaning that the other side is turned off/unplugged?
  3. Which version (corne-classic, corne-cherry or corne-chocolate) should I use when I want to use Gateron Hot-Swap Switches (not low-profile)?
  4. Do I have to pay attention when buying keycaps, e.g. to also get special sized caps?

I already knew the video and I am considering giving it a try. I wanted the E-Reader to be also able to display PDF files, which is easier to implement with linux as a basis, I thought.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago) (1 children)

I thought about setting the CM4 to sleep when no input was done for ~10min and just hoped, that that would reduce the power consumption enough to last at least 1 week or up to 1 month when used for 1h a day. But it was just a thought. I have not settled to an approach yet.

I want to build my own portable E-Reader like a Tolino/Kindle in DIN-A5 format (I know there are similar projects, like the Open Book from joeycastillo, but I want to make my own just for fun). I'm considering using the Compute Module 4 from Raspberry Pi. That, at least according to my theories, would have the advantage of me not needing to create my own OS, and the availability of already existing EPUB/HTML (EPUB is essentially just HTML) & PDF parsers and UI libraries hopefully makes my life easier. I don't want to use a default Raspberry Pi, because I don't need all the ports and I want the size of the E-Reader to be not unnecessarily thick.

The modules I need/want:

  • Micro SD Card Reader for internal Storage (or just using eMMC Storage, have not settled yet on that topic)
  • SD Card Reader (large/normal sized SD Cards), with a snap-in/spring mechanism (like with Nintendo (3)DS cartridges)
  • E-Paper Display (e.g. a waveshare)
  • USB-C Port for charging the battery (and maybe, if possible also file transfer and if possible maybe also to connect to a docking station)
  • Battery

What is your experience with the Compute Module (4) and do you have good resources for creating my own PCB extension module for the Compute Module you would like to share? Do you have constructive critique for my project idea?

I am running Ubuntu server and I am... satisfied with it. It does what it should, no problems, nothing to worry about, stable AF (as any mature distro?). But lately I am thinking about switching to fedora server (I need to reset my system one way or another, because my space on the hard drive for the system ran out of space (it was a small drive)). I am using fedora on my work machine and I really like it, so I thought I could give fedora on my server a try.

The is the messenger matrix from the German blog Kukitz-Blog (it is a blog with a strong focus on privacy and is in my opinion well informed). But no worries, the matrix is also available in English.

Maybe you can take some inspiration from the matrix.
