Do you use it offline without a Microsoft account?

Been enjoying Rhythmbox, what are your thoughts? in c/linux@lemmy.ml
[–] chockblock@lemmy.world 1 points 9 months ago

I use Rhythmbox to edit/import/maintain my music collection and sync my iPods, and then I use Lollypop to play my music from my computer. Lollypop has next to no of the aforementioned features but its just nice to look at and simple.

I'm curious if the PineNote on the official Pine Store the 2nd edition that we have been waiting for or is this identical to the first release?

Problem with Rheem Econet integration in c/homeassistant@lemmy.world
[–] chockblock@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago (2 children)

If I look at the HA log, the thermostat seems to disconnect and reconnect itself every few minutes. Does yours do that? After looking closer at it, I think this is an issue with the Rheem thermostat not staying connected to the home WiFi network.

Also, have you considered wiring in to the thermostat directly to avoid having to use a Rheem account?

Problem with Rheem Econet integration (lemmy.world)
 

Is anyone else having issues with the Rheem Econet integration? It worked so well for so long but now it spends most of its time disconnected from Econet. It appears to reconnect every few minutes for a bit but it seems like every time I open the home assistant app, my thermostat is not functioning. The actual thermostat in my house is functioning normally and connected to the network.

Do you guys have any suggestions?

Someone on Reddit theorized that he saw the term Delta and associated it with Delta Faucets the company, and that is where the faucet idea of his comes from.

Is there an Essential Amino Acid supplement that doesn't have any sweeteners in it? (lemmy.world)
 

I'm currently using this one and I like it: https://canprev.ca/products/musclerescue-powder-162g-pineapple-punch/

But I would prefer something that doesn't have any sweeteners in it. I'm aware it wouldn't taste all that great, but I'm trying to avoid sweeteners, artificial or otherwise.

Thanks

Are there any open source Strava alternatives? in c/fitness@lemmy.world
[–] chockblock@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Does it have any segment options - to isolate a specific trail/section to show your best times on that section?

Are there any open source Strava alternatives? (lemmy.world)
 

I've found lots of great open source workout tracking apps, but I'm looking for a program that can show me my times on popular segments like certain bike trails, just as Strava does. Are there any free (and hopefully open source) alternatives?

What is the best value, out of the box PC gaming solution? (lemmy.world)
 

I have a Steam Deck that is connected to my TV 90% of the time. I'd like to replace this with a PC that has maybe slightly higher specs than the Steam Deck. Are there any pre-built solutions that are really affordable?

Are there any apps compatible with Syncthing to sync articles between devices? (lemmy.world)
 

I'm currently using Pocket to sync articles between my phone and computer. I would like to leave Pocket behind and just sync downloaded articles directly between devices.

The author of this article believes her electric car is friendly to the planet (www.cbc.ca)
 

I find this ignorance really frustrating that people believe purchasing an electric car is somehow environmentally neutral. People should be educated on the environmental toll of EV production, lithium mining, tire pollution etc.

Any unique use-cases for a Pinephone? (lemmy.world)
 

I bought a Pinephone out of curiosity and while it has been fun to play with, I am looking to repurpose it to something else. Has anyone found a good use for it, maybe incorporated into a smart home setup or something along those lines?

what is the best privacy distro? (lemmy.world)
 

For my phone, I use Graphene OS. What would be the best desktop Linux option to match the level of security and privacy that GOS provides?

has anyone had issues with PinePower when using the american plug? (lemmy.world)
 

I find that the brick is so heavy and the connection point doesn't fit very snug, and the power plug falls out quite easily. Anyone else experience this?

Graphene OS vs Lineage OS (lemmy.world)
 

I am currently running Graphene OS and I am very happy with it, but I am not so happy with my Pixel phone. I am wanting to switch hardware that Graphene does not support.

Would I be losing many privacy & security advantages by switching to Lineage?
