My wife was a bone conduction earphone candidate for multiple reasons and I convinced her to try some. Her first pair from Shokz died relatively quickly, but they sent her a replacement without much hassle. She likes them a lot. Every now and then I steal them for a bit. I call it the "voice of god" because when you play something through them it's like telepathy. You can hear the outside unimpeded, but there's also this extra sound being injected into your head. Would recommend.

I would just append that judging people is a good thing, often blanket misinterpreted as a bad thing. You should make an initial judgement upon meeting someone (it doesn't really matter, your subconscious will anyway). The important part is being willing to update that judgement based on learning more.

Subbed. Just curious as to how (or if) you intend to differentiate yourself from the Jupiter Broadcasting team's Selfhosted.show podcast?

I'm a logseq user of about 6 months and overall really like it. It's mostly built around the daily journal, which mostly works if you lean into it. I basically write what I did, todo's or random thoughts for the day in there. I typically segregate my root bullet points into a handful of main "buckets" like a job, client or project. I used to do those with a hashtag like #job1 but moved to page tags like [[job1]] with sub bullets for main tasks, todos, notes, etc from each. i have many relevant hashtags for relevant subsystems/topics relating to the main ones.

from there I have setup some basic pages for things like [[job1]] with a query to show TODOs with that task (see below), then some relevant reference notes, and sometimes some links to bullets from previous journals if i find i will likely reference them frequently. you also can see below the linked references, which is frequently useful. i also frequently put tags to other tags, pages, etc. within to help map everything together

here's an example of a very basic query I would keep at the top of the [[job1]] page {{query (and [[job1]] (task NOW LATER DOING IN-PROGRESS TODO WAIT WAITING))[[job1]]}}

to your above, you have #workimprovements, you can either just jot those at the root as they come to you and include the full hashtag, or you could have a starting section of either [[workimprovements]] with various ideas below, but i would also suggest adding in other relevant hashtags for subtypes, areas, etc. another tip about hashtags, don't go crazy with them -- too many hashtags just makes a mess -- but don't skimp on them either. If you think you'll use it frequently enough, or at least want to go back and reference it easily in the future, make a hashtag. you can use the hashtag plugin after the fact to find unused and remove hashtags you didn't end up using.

one thing I really wish they would add is similar to hashtags, but for people. Right now, I "tag" people with an @ in front of their name, so I might have @BobS requested X which sort of helps to go back and search for things related to @BobS, but it's not natively done for fully fleshed out. It would be awesome if there was either native or a plugin functionality to more gracefully tie it together

anyway, there's my logseq ramble, hopefully it helps.

was coming in here to mention rclone, which is pretty cool stuff. this sort of sounds like a pretty wrapper for rclone, which means this should be pretty neat too. I'll have to check it out.

yeah, the clickbait title almost turned me off, but I did end up watching video. I'm not really into STT (or voice assistants in general), but the keyboard they are allegedly working on does sound pretty sweet and I would definitely be interested in that.

Being that even if you go to their site https://futo.org there is no mention that I could see of this STT/voice input product, I wonder if I'll ever be able to find out about said keyboard, should it actually release. For reference, the direct link to the voice input site is https://voiceinput.futo.org

edit: I also wanted to add that I was unaware of the saved recordings thing, which is horrifying, yet unsurprising... makes me glad I don't/didn't use STT... I think... maybe I should go check...

Pinetime isn't the most robust of smartwatches, but I would say it fits the bill.

Yeah. I often kick myself for getting an nvidia card. My former distro was Ubuntu so I'm familiar with it from that end. I can see how having a constantly updating kernel could cause pain with the nvidia drivers. Even on leap or Ubuntu any tine the nvidia drivers updated it took a fair bit of extra time for regular apt/zypper processing kernel stuff and whatnot.

im going to keep a sharp eye on slowroll. I might be crazy enough to (eventually) try to convert from leap 15.5 to tumbleweed to slowroll. If it all blows up I was probably going to have to do that anyway.

Tell me more about your Tumbleweed+NVIDIA problems. I'm on Leap 15.5, but with all this I've thought about moving over to Tumbleweed or Fedora. My card is NVIDIA, so I'm not looking for a big headache.

...I used to be cruel to my woman and beat her and kept her apart from the things that she loved...

I'm assuming it's that one. I'm not a Beatles historian so maybe I've missed the mark. But hey, gotta admit it's getting better

Plex probably isn't the best example, but yes, you can use Tailscale to create a sort of mesh network to access devices within private networks. Essentially any device that's connected to tailscale can be contacted by other clients connected to tailscale. There are extra routing things you can do to use a tailscale device as a sort of "exit node", but that's the basic gist.

I don't think it's necessarily universal in US libraries either. I'm not in a big city, but overall our library system is pretty good. They have a number of branches with "maker labs" so there are things like Cricuts, sewing machines, laser cutters, audio recording/production equipment and 3D printers you can rent. I'd recommend at least checking around.
