I built up an AI Agent using n8n and email doing exactly this. Works great and was surprised I'd not seen any other place kicking the idea around.

Probably my favorite use case is I can shoot it shopping receipts and it'll roughly parse them and dump the line item and cost into a spreadsheet before uploading it to paperless-ngx.

I could have definitely used this a few weeks ago! Very nice.

Bought this same oven and share the same quibbles but otherwise it's been great.

The criteria of knobs on an induction oven filters out quite a lot of options annoyingly.

I mean the obvious one is cross platform support? People who don't want or have an icloud account?

Contrary to your belief there are still people out there living outside the apple bubble.

Hey this is really neat thanks for sharing definitely putting this on my list of things to put together.

Any chance the name has a connection to Twister?

Mesh Central has been really great for me. Moved to it from rust desk.

https://meshcentral.com/

Use it to manage my entire family's computers and phones.

Seriously I don't get how anyone can literally defend that garbage.

Bunch of Stockholm syndrome going around.

Sorry but windows explorer is miles ahead of finder.

Granted that's not that hard with how bad finder really is.

Really one of the worst pieces of software I've ever been forced to use.

I did this with AwesomeWM. The Lain (plugin/extension/i forget what its called in awesome) has a "centerwork" style layout that solves this exact issue.

Actually it's really surprising how few tiling WMs support this sort of scenario.

I eventually just gave up and switched to KDE+KZones as it covers 90% of what I'd get from a tiling WM anyway.

I gotta disagree hard here. Macs have by far the most obnoxious and temperamental WiFi stack I've ever experienced. Constant disconnects, have to turn it off and on to get it to bother looking for APs again. All of them constantly trigger bad experience scores in UniFi.

Absolutely subpar compared to any of my Linux devices, even the raspberry pi jammed inside a metal box.

Wow that is where that garbage comes from? So damn embarrassing...

This is what I do when my job forced me to use a mac. I think the only thing I installed on the mac outside of it was Firefox.

Worked great for years before I changed jobs that let me bring my own hardware finally.

Isn't that the truth. For a site with the word "hacker" in it there seem to be so few of them. I can't imagine letting all that curiosity die out of me like the parent comment implies.

I don't have the amount of time I used to to do that stuff either but the curiosity of it has never died and if I had more time I'd still do it.

If I ever lost that drive I think I'd rather be dead.

> I think the traditional desktop will go away slowly anyways and most people will use operating systems like iOS and Android.

What a nightmarish hellscape that sounds like.

Such a weird take, complaining that a trillion dollar company might no longer be your personal guardian who gets to decide what you are allowed access to.

All you want is Apple to continue fucking over the people who build the software just so you aren't slightly inconvenienced. Bravo.

I'm the same way a trackpad is a trackpad. I actually find mac's more annoying because they are so big for some reason and i barely use like a quarter of the entire space of the dang thing but my palm will constantly accidentally trigger it because it's so huge. Why are they so big? drives me nuts.

I also don't use any gestures. I hate moving my hand down to the trackpad at all if i can avoid it and the entire OS seems built around you using the dumb gestures.

Yeah KDE connect fan here - works great absolutely amazing piece of open source software.

> It’s almost dimensionally identical to the F-150 and the masculine “look at me” cyberpunk appearance is 100% in line with basically everything about the big three automakers’ trucks’ demographics.

You clearly are not around any of the big three automakers trucks demos if you really believe this shit was ever going to succeed in it.

This site has some of the worst attitudes towards anything that's not just the same old apple garbage.

Bring something thats genuinely unique or something that really encompasses the spirit of what a hacker was when I was growing up you just get garbage responses like the parent.

MeshCentral is great, just migrated all my rustdesk setup to it.

I mostly use it for family remote support and things tho, performance isn't amazing but it's plenty good.

Also supports things like relaying over an agent, hardware key authentication, file browsing. It's a little wonky in spots but overall it's such a great piece of software.

You people are fucking insane... You really want people wearing this crap driving cars and doing mission critical things??

Christ the people on the website are just another level.

Cloud isn't a dependency to accomplish this. I can stand up new instances of our primary infrastructure within minutes on any VM or server running linux and our agent.

This sounds like a case of treating your infra as pets and getting stuck when it suddenly needs to be replaced.

There still are. As someone who has done both production and homelab deployments: unless you are specifically just looking for experience with it and just setting up a demo - don't bother.

When it works, it works great - when it goes wrong it's a huge headache.

Edit: As just an edit, if distributed storage is just something you are interested in there are much better options for a homelab setup:

- seaweedfs has been rock solid for me for years in both small and huge scales. we actually moved our production ceph setup to this.

- longhorn was solid for me when i was in the k8s world

- glusterfs is still fine as long as you know what you are going into.

The last point is the case with my Steam account. I'll never be able to shed it given how much money is essentially associated with it. Granted, I think only I will ever see the name but boy do I wish I could change it.

Not even young at this point. I overheard two grown men talking about how much they hate people with green bubbles and purposely skip inviting them into group chats because of it.

Yeah that's not the part I'm referring to.

You compare alternative app stores on Android devices to apple alt stores requiring rooting an Apple device. Very different and not an equal comparison what so ever.

Then referring to PWAs existence as an excuse for apple not having a monopoly to their device ignoring the fact apple has resisted PWAs in general and has taken a long time to even allow them to do something as basic as permit notifications.

Your attempt at equating the two is very obviously flawed.

Wow,that's a huge reach on the apple side of things.

I use photosync to photoprism and it works great

I toss my phone on the wireless charger and it auto uploads them.

Best part is unlike trapping my photos in Google or Apple they are just files stored on a disk

Absolute nightmare. Took me two weeks to help someone get their data out of icloud.

I can't imagine fighting to get my photos out of Google only to put them in something even worse.

Madness
