Introducing Pi-hole v6 in c/selfhosted@lemmy.world
[–] chriscrutch@lemm.ee 1 points 3 days ago

I was running Pi-hole on an actual Raspberry Pi 4 that was apparently running Raspbian 10. My upgrade did not go smoothly. But I got it and I'm liking the new version. The only issue I see so far is that the admin panel in v5 used to have a "remember me for 7 days" checkbox when logging in, this version does not.

Never heard of that place before, thank you. It looks quite promising!

Organic Maps Turns 4 Years: The Privacy-Focused Alternative to Google Maps in c/privacy@lemmy.ml
[–] chriscrutch@lemm.ee 1 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

When I type in my home address, it lists it in a city that's three tows away from where it is. Maps it in the correct location though. My address is correct and in the correct town in OpenStreetMap. That's enough for me to not use Organic Maps. I don't want to guess what incorrect town to use if I type in an address to navigate to.

Account suspended (lemm.ee)
 

Browsing Reddit at work like I've literally done every work day for the last six years, suddenly Reddit won't let me vote. Says my account has been suspended, but all I have to do is reset my password, using the email address I have on file. I don't have one. Can't get the email to reset the password, can't add an email now. I can be logged in but can't vote or comment or post. A 12 year old Reddit account down the drain. The password was unique, 20 characters with upper and lowercase letters, numbers, symbols. Generated by my password manager. No way someone compromised my account. Thanks, Reddit.

Joplin alternative? in c/selfhosted@lemmy.world
[–] chriscrutch@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

I moved from Joplin to Obsidian and am very happy with the move, but it's not FOSS

TIL that Die Hard received mixed reviews upon release. Critics didn't like Bruce Willis' performance, action and violence in c/til@lemmy.world
[–] chriscrutch@lemm.ee 29 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I was too young to watch Moonlighting when it was on TV, so I never knew Bruce Willis as anything other than an action and drama guy until he was on Friends for a few episodes, and then I thought he was out of place.

@MileHighMims composes a short list of the refs bailing out the Chiefs recently in c/nfl@lemmy.world

Outstanding. Ya know, I was actually starting to not hate that guy this season, and now he blew it.

What's something that feels illegal to know? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.world
[–] chriscrutch@lemm.ee 27 points 1 year ago (1 children)

So I could get some and just release it literally anywhere there are people, at least one of whom would inevitably call the fire department and they'd come out and waste a bunch of resources looking for non-existent propane? Huh.

Night owls of lemmy, how do you cope with modern society? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.world
[–] chriscrutch@lemm.ee 22 points 1 year ago

I am single with no children. Having no reason to switch to a "normal person" schedule on my days off, I simply don't. Combine that with blackout curtains and I don't have many problems. Occasionally I need to engage with a business who for some God-awful reason insists on doing work before noon, and those days suck, but otherwise I'm good.

Self-hosted calendar that isn't Nextcloud and can send e-mail reminders, not just pop-ups in c/selfhosted@lemmy.world
[–] chriscrutch@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

This looks quite promising, thank you! I'll be trying that.

I will look into that, thank you.

Self-hosted calendar that isn't Nextcloud and can send e-mail reminders, not just pop-ups (lemm.ee)
 

I'm trying to de-Google my life and self-host more. One tricky point with me is calendaring. I can get a CalDav server running and syncing with my Android phone without much hassle, but I haven't yet found a server or client that can send e-mail reminders for events, rather than just pop-up notifications.

I've been told to try Nextcloud. I tried installing it but it's overkill for me, and I don't want to deal with setting up a domain. Surely there can't be exactly one CalDav option that can send email reminders. But I've never heard anyone say anything other than "Nextcloud."

Where can I find discussion on the Lemmy software itself? (lemm.ee)
 

I'm looking for a community where discussion about the Lemmy software itself is discussed. I have a feature request and although I can't see any such request on the Lemmy github, it seems nearly impossible to me that no one has asked for it yet. I want to chat about it with other Lemmy users before determining if I'm way out in left field or not.

People who have those talking buttons for their pet, how long did it take for them to catch on, and do they really work? (lemm.ee)
 

I've been seeing a dog food ad that includes one of those pads with the buttons that talk, I was curious to hear about them from people who actually have them.

Walmart on Hermit returns "Request Rejected" (lemm.ee)
 

When creating a lite app either by hand or with the pre-made app for www.walmart.com, opening it in Hermit returns "The requested URL was rejected. Please consult with your administrator" instead of the Walmart homepage. I'm guessing this is due to something on walmart's end, but maybe it's a Hermit issue.

Does anyone else get the same result, and is it fixable? Thanks, all.
