I hope you’re joking about rebooting to Windows for paint 😁

But just in case, and for the benefit of others: KolourPaint

It’s basically KDE Paint, and works great as a simple image editor

I’m in this picture and I don’t like it

Yeah Track&Graph is great. I also use it for tracking exercises and weight, and just use the built-in graphs to see the trend over time

One way is to make a new “entity”, that’s not actually linked to your previous temperature sensor. I’m not familiar with how to tie them together in a “device” like how ZigBee2mqtt auto discovery does.

So just add a new “sensor”/“entity”

  - name: "Sala_battery"
    unique_id: "temp_sala_battery"
    state_topic: "zigbee2mqtt/temp_sala"
    value_template: "{{ value_json.battery }}"
    unit_of_measurement: "%"

Use MQTT Explorer to listen to your ZigBee2mqtt broker topic “zigbee2mqtt/temp_sala” to get the exact field name (battery, battery_state or some such)

The biggest problem with Discord is that its an information black hole. Its not properly searchable and not indexed by search engines.

Discord is fine for casual chat, but horrible when used for forum-type discussions and even worse when used for documentation.

You see the same problems being discussed and solved again and again, but you cant just “link” someone the solution like you could with a forum thread cause its spread out over 3-10 chat messages that are interleaved in-between other topics being discussed in the same room

Anything of long-term value for the project (forum-type discussions, documentation etc) should not recide in Discord

Thanks for the clarification.

Are there any plans for a built-in sync feature in the future?

Does that mean TreeDome is the only program that can meaningfully open the notes file?

Is there a mobile client planned? Or do you know if any current mobile apps are able to read the TreeDome notes file?

With everything stored in a single file, does that mean you need to close Treedome on ComputerA before it can by synced to ComputerB?

If computerA makes an edit in one note while computer B makes an edit in another note, does that create a sync conflict? (Assuming syncing with Nextcloud, syncThing or similar)?

There’s a list of reasons under Origin and Namesake

Although for me having everything stored in a single database-file is a negative, I much prefer a directory with individual files, accessible from any software. So I’ll have a closer look at CherryTree, thanks for bringing it to my attention

Thanks for explaining (For some reason my mind went to Dodge Challenger the car, not the Challenger shuttle)

I never new there were that many ignored warnings for the Challenger shuttle disaster. It remains an important cautionary tale to this day. The poor crew never saw it coming

Story time?

Depending on what you need, you might get away with any old small PC (like 1 litre office PCs or old thin clients), or an SBC like Raspberry Pi.

For Operating system, instead of Android, try LibreELEC, or any Linux distro starting straight in to Kodi could work, for Firefox in Kiosk mode opening your Jellyfin.

Bazzite is a version of Fedora initially started as a steamOS alternative for the steam deck. So if you install the Deck version of Bazzite it boots straight in to Steam Big Picture intended for the TV.

KDE Plasma also has a Plasma Big Screen version, but I’m not sure how ready that is yet, or if it’s easy to install.

Color temperature is actually quite OK with simple remotes. Like the IKEA remote control used left and right arrows to change between stark white, warm yellow and happy medium.

Problem is non-smart bulbs with smart wall-switch can’t change color temperature. Theoretically I suppose there could be a switch/bulb combo, where the switch is Zwave/ZigBee enabled, and somehow communicate with the bulb. But I don’t think anything like that exists. It’d probably be very expensive if it did

Cheaper? :O This is the super-deluxe splurge option compared to some cheap IKEA ZigBee bulbs

Got any recommendations? ZigBee, Zwave, or something else?

One nice thing about having the bulbs smart is changing the color temperature. Is there any way of doing that from the wall-switch? It’s kinda what’s been stopping me from upgrading from smart bulbs to smart switches

So DIY home-assistant based cloud-relay is better than custom made purpose built cloud-relay by muliti billion dollar company? xD

Which is both hilarious and a testament to the power of Home-assistant and open source (and I suppose it says something about how much Hyundai cares about their app)

Working well with version control is such a killer feature!

Certain platforms (not necessarily in the EDA space) like to make 5000 line diff after just opening a project and thinking about changing a comment

I meant “just a text editor” in the sense that it’s not a full IDE with compilers and build system, versioning, project management etc. But now with plugins Kate does these things too

I use Kate mostly for config files or interpreted code like python, bash etc, and just launch the code from the terminal (or Kate’s built-in terminal 🙂 )

For compiled code I like KDevelop, if that can be considered lightweight. Vscode / vscodium is nice too but not exactly lightweight by many people’s standards (though I haven’t tried it with compiled code)

What are build targets in the context of Kate? Kate itself is “just” a text editor. Related to a plugin maybe?

Protip: KDE’s Dolphin is available for Windows.

The Windows integration isn’t perfect, but it’s very useful nonetheless. Multiple tabs and the Ctrl+I filter alone makes it worthwhile.

On a related note: KDE’s Kate text editor is also available on Windows and it works GREAT! So great that KDE eV has published it on the Windows store, making it easy to install

Thanks for sharing, LibrePCB looks amazing, much simpler than KiCAD.

Last time I used KiCAD (admittedly quite some years ago) it was amazingly powerful but kinda overwhelming to get started
