This isn’t open source (but free if I recall correctly- I think I have a paid version but I installed it years ago): Recurlog will absolutely fit the bill for medications or other recurring tasks that repeat based on last-done date or due date (with or without automatic rollover = will reschedule for next day if one is missed).

You can set reminders at a specific time, and easily log directly from the reminder notification. You can log multiple times each day if you like, and add notes to the logged entry.

You can either set a “simple” recurring task without extra data, or optionally add data fields for text, numbers, Yes/No buttons or a time duration.

Manual backup to file. Unfortunately no encryption or visualizations.

I use it to log medications, reminders for physical exercises, cutting the dog’s nails, when the dog is due to come in heat and how long it lasted, monthly hair dye and products and results etc.

I know it’s old (last updated in 2018), but it’s phenomenal. I’ve been thinking of making a similar app with more features as a hobby project, but I also have a 10 mo baby so 🤷🏻‍♀️

Yes, agreed, some of it is probably just bluster to seem like they’re doing something.

However, even if we agree that more police resources are necessary, I don’t know how we should get more of competent, educated police in the short term unless we involve military (who do have some education at least). The last thing I want is for us to rapidly employ new “police” (ordningsvakter) with only weeks or a few months of training - that’s how we get additional problems with US-style police violence on top of the gang violence problems…

I agree that the current government is implementing exactly 0 long-term strategies to help deal with the root cause of the problems, like strengthening and financing social services and welfare, healthcare and mental healthcare, schools and social programs, decriminalizing some drugs etc, to curb influx of underage criminals into the gangs and remove some of the economical incentives. The opposition is coming out with good suggestion after good suggestion, and the right-wing (by Swedish standards) government has basically just slashed welfare across the board in practice. They are going for only the hard-on-crime approach, which as far as I know has no real scientific proof of long-term efficacy unless paired with social/community interventions.

However, I think many swedes agree that the police need more resources - particularly people watching possible targets of future bombings and just more eyes on the gangs. We have one of the lowest number of police per capita in Europe, slightly higher than the rest of the Nordic countries tbf, but with much bigger problems with organized crime and violence.

I’m also horrified at this general societal development, but I can see the merit of involving some of the military in more eyes-on-the-ground kinds of operations for a few years until we have more of a grip on the gang situation. I prefer that to visitation zones, harsher punishments and more generalized surveillance of non-suspects being allowed.

But maybe I’m just naïve to the implications.

I also use Connect. My phone is a Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra, I think it has to do with the emoji collection on the device rather than a specific app.

And try to force them to attend a mediation session with the murderer, actively discourage them from going to the police… Fail to report the baby deaths appropriately to the NHS, fail to do the initial investigation about the first three deaths the executive team had decided on. Fail to present to the board of trustees that the conclusion of two external reviews were that some of the baby deaths should be forensically investigated. Fail to do any investigation. Refuse to reassign the murderer for months while more murders and attempted murders happen, then reassign them into a position where they have access to manipulate the narrative. And additionally order the whistleblowers to cease email communications about the issue…

I think I missed a few things as well, there’s just too many things wrong in this picture.

Yes, it’s impossible that they didn’t at least entertain the idea that she was guilty with so many incidents and so many people speaking out. And the execs immediate response to that is to… silence the whistleblowers, to maintain the reputation of the hospital. Absolutely repulsive. They come very close to being accessories to the murders, in my opinion.

This whole story is the most insane, fucked up thing I have read in years.

Especially the companion story, Hospital bosses ignored months of doctors’ warnings about Lucy Letby. The hospital execs seem almost as callous as the murderer. Holy shit. You have to have some sort of psychological or empathetic disorder as manager or director to fail to act when babies are dying like flies, there is one common factor, and your response isn’t to immediately investigate and take that common factor out of the equation as a safety measure.

They just refused to act for 3 years (where 17 babies died mysteriously or had near-fatal unexplained events in one year) - except silence, threaten and bully the doctor and seven (!) pediatric consultants who repeatedly raised the alarm and called for outside investigation. Since the murderer was removed from the neonatal ward in 2016, there has apparently been 1 baby death. In total, in 7 years.

I don’t know how you would live with yourself knowing that you actively aided a serial killer by refusing to listen to multiple people warning you about them and pleading with you to act.

Unfortunately I don’t think it’s just Britain. I’ve seen this same sort of mentality gain traction all over Europe, my own Nordic country as well. Although Britain does seem to have a headstart into conservative dystopia.

I don’t remember exactly, but it used to be that you could only stream to mobile devices if you had Plex Pass (I mean, you could just use the mobile browser instead but that is ofc less convenient). Another perk with Plex Pass is that you can download content from the server to watch offline on your device, for example if you’re going traveling. Skipping intros I think is also a premium feature. Possibly the built-in subtitle downloader is also a Pass/premium feature.

But otherwise I don’t think it’s necessary. Try it out, all the basic features are available in the free version and spinning it up is super easy. If you decide you like it you can just purchase a lifetime Plex Pass.

No no.
