i second this. when you try to load a book, it can have a file select and also an opt in for syncing with local server, project gutenberg, or whatever. same with dictionary, select the dictionary file with instructions on where to find it, or opt in to download one from a known source.

    From what I've read, it is somehow a VoIP number only and I cannot switch it to a regular cell.

    I did look into other VoIP services, but I quickly felt overwhelmed and do not understand sip and all the other stuff I need

    i mostly agree with all these points. been using nura on fairphone 5 for a week with phosh. my fairphone 6 with eos stopped charging, even after replacing the usb port, so im in the warranty process now.

    my microphone doesnt work for calls, but i had problems on android with this phone too. also it was not for sale in the us, so maybe it has something to do with that somehow.

    surprisingly usable, and frustratingly unusable all at once lol.

    id recommend the app "webapp hub" turns websites into apps on the phone. rely on waydroid more than id like and it crashes regularly.

    have many notifications going to my protonmail, and leave the protonmail app open constantly to get them.

    i use google voice which is annoying for degoogling, since everyone has my gv number. theres no app to properly integrate it. theres also no clear replacement. if i lose my phone i can call or text from a computer or my wifes phone. during the pandemic i cancelled my phone plan and still got calls and texts. this is truly going to be the hardest thing for my transition away from google.

    i dont know exact software, but you could maybe set up an rtmp server (nginx) at home, either with ports open or vpn home (tailscale) and stream video to the server from your phone (does that exist?). then have ffmpeg constantly looking for content on the rtmp server and saving it to a shared place like nextcloud or syncthing the folder to the trusted friend.

    ive got a surface tablet at work running nixos. it mostly is used to view security cameras.

    the machine is fairly low spec and bogs itself down after a coupke days, so id like it to auto reboot at 9am. i work a late shift and often don't leave til around 2am.

    i guess we don't use cron anymore? i really don't understand how the systemd timers work... the wiki doesnt really give great details...

    systemd.timers."autoreboot" = {

    wantedBy = [ "timers.target" ];

    timerConfig = {
    
      OnCalendar="*-*-* 9:00:00";                                     Unit = "autoreboot.service";
    
    };
    

    };

    systemd.services."autoreboot" = {

    script = ''

    set -eu
    
    ${pkgs.coreutils}/run/current-system/sw/bin/reboot
    

    '';

    serviceConfig = {

    Type = "oneshot";
    
    User = "root";
    

    };

    };

    the systemd target seems to be created, but it reports as dead when i check it...

    any advice?

    Smart home? (lemmy.ml)
     

    I've been working on degoogling. i got a fairphone 6 with e/os. its been a great push in the right direction because many google services i previously relied on such as google home dont work.

    no worries, ive always wanted to get better with Home Assistant. but devices dont generally advertise if theyre compatable with home assistant. so i got the matter controller for home assistant, great. just arrived yesterday, and tried to add a matter bulb to test it out.

    home assistant says i need to be on official android with the home assistant companion app downloaded from the play store, not the fdroid version

    I recently got a new NAS and Im trying to import my watched status. the recommended way seems to be via trakt, which I am already using.

    The issue is the new jellyfin instance doesnt seem to be importing my trakt watched status. I do have my files organized differently on the new server, if thats the issue.

    Anyway, this is keeping me from actually using my new NAS so I'd like to get this solved. Any advice is appreciated
