ycuser2··on Sniffnet – monitor your Internet traffic
Is it possible to select a pcap stream (named pipe or so) as input? With that I could monitor my routers interfaces.

Or are there other possibilities to monitor router interfaces with Stiffnet?

ycuser2··on Show HN: Microsoft Teams Ticketing System – Ticketing as a Service
I don't like to have more Apps in Teams.

For example, when I have a Planner Task opened in Teams and I get a call the Task disappears without being saved in favor of the call.

I my opinion, Microsoft should stick to the core functionallity of Teams (communication) and should stop implementing a new browser/OS/platform for everything.

But good luck and success for your Ticketing System!

ycuser2··on Ask HN: Is there any software you only made for your own use but nobody else?
> ..., along with audio extractor and pitch+speed correction for songs

What do you mean with pitch+speed correction? Have songs on youtube false pitch or speed?

ycuser2··on Ask HN: Is there any software you only made for your own use but nobody else?
I made a small tool that takes a screenshot all 5 minutes and stores it in a password protected zip file, but only if something has changed on screen.

Sometimes I go through the old screenshots and get nostalgic as the oldest are 10 years already.

I spend so much time of my life on my computer, so why not take photos of it?

Yes, but consider the energy consumption.
ycuser2··on A WiFi color eInk picture frame
Personaly, I don't like light emitting photo frames because I always get the feeling of "that's a display showing a photo, not a photo".
ycuser2··on A WiFi color eInk picture frame
I have built one by myself with a waveshare display. The dithering is visible and the contrast is bad. But from distance it is not noticeble.
ycuser2··on How Async/Await Works in C#
I don't think that async/await is about to make things faster. It's about to run things things in parallel. For example, you can run long tasks with making your GUI unresponsive.

ycuser2··on Japan adopts plan to make maximum use of nuclear power
> So the topic was basically about extending nuclear only in response to the short-term situation? Not about reevaluating it as a valid green energy source?

The Green Party sees nuclear energy as the evil. Never they consider it as green energy. Extending nuclear was a short-term compromise.

I don't know how they want to supply the industry with only renewable energy. I'm not deep enough into that topic.

ycuser2··on Japan adopts plan to make maximum use of nuclear power
> Would you say stances have changed at all in Germany from your POV since last year?

Not from my POV. There were long discussions to longer the running time of a few reactors by ... 3 months I guess? It was nationwide topic.

Germany wants to safe the whole world by "going by example". So instead of thinking pratically and realisticly "we" try do to things ideologically.

ycuser2··on Japan adopts plan to make maximum use of nuclear power
As a German this is quite bizzare to me. Here, our politicians take Fukushima as an example why we should stop nuclear energy. People are scared of nuclear energy. And now Japan goes max nuclear.
