    The end goal will be to have none of the Pis connected to wifi; this will be a closed unit. For now, both of the Pis I'm testing with are connected to my wifi.

    I want to communicate over USB, and it seemed like ethernet-over-USB + regular web services are the easiest way to do that.

    The goal is to have each Pi Zero be able to communicate with the Pi 4b and the Pi 4b be able to communicate with each Pi Zero.

    When you say I should see it as a USB-Ethernet card, where would I see it? I only see eth0, lo, and wlan0 when I use ifconfig -a on the 4b.

    EDIT: Oh my god. My cable was bad. I swapped cables and now I can see it.

  • I've got a Zero set up with usb0 as g_ether and a static IP address: ``` usb0: flags=4099<UP,BROADCAST,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 inet 10.14.0.15 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 10.14.0.255 ether 7e:24:7d:cc:68:7c txqueuelen 1000 (Ethernet) RX packets 0 bytes 0 (0.0 B) RX errors 0 dropped 0 overruns 0 frame 0 TX packets 0 bytes 0 (0.0 B) TX errors 0 dropped 0 overruns 0 carrier 0 collisions 0 ``` I have the OTG port connected to one of the four USB ports on a 4b. I'm not sure what the next steps are to get the actual connectivity to function, though. I've seen posts saying that gadget mode is only supported on the USB-C port - does that only mean for using the 4b as a peripheral, or does that mean for any connectivity, even if it's the host?

    If you're carrying your media with you, you could run Jellyfin on the server to provide access to the media to anyone connected to its wifi.

    (I don't know what the problem with a water bowl is, but I digress)

    (cats are more likely to drink moving water than still water since moving water is less likely to have bad things growing in it)

    The machines haven't worked for me, so I just started opting out immediately as well, since that ends up being much faster. I don't understand the point of this.

    There are some domain names that have requirements but nothing like you're thinking. The only one I would automatically consider as providing useful information would be .gov.

  • Would you consider making a sandwich to be "cooking?"

    Depends on the sandwich. If you're constructing a sandwich without using heat, I would consider that "making lunch" or "making dinner" but not explicitly cooking. I'm not sure that the difference matters in any significant situations, though. Why are you asking?

    New to CircuitPython, this feels like it should work according to the docs but it prints six `False`s. Any ideas? ``` #!/usr/bin/env python import board import digitalio import time class body_controller: def __init__(self): SWDIO = board.D5 self._reset_pin = digitalio.DigitalInOut(SWDIO) print(self._reset_pin.value) self._reset_pin.switch_to_output(True) print(self._reset_pin.value) def turn_on(self): print(self._reset_pin.value) self._reset_pin.value = False print(self._reset_pin.value) time.sleep(1) print(self._reset_pin.value) self._reset_pin.value = True print(self._reset_pin.value) body = body_controller() time.sleep(1) body.turn_on() time.sleep(1) ```

    This happens if I use `set_time` or `set_position`. Is this typical, or am I just not doing it right? This is on a Pi Zero 2 W, so not the most powerful, but should be able to handle this. These are the relevant bits of how I'm setting up the player: ``` self._vlc = vlc.Instance() self._player = self._vlc.media_player_new() self._list_player = self._vlc.media_list_player_new() self._list_player.set_media_player(self._player) playlist = self._vlc.media_list_new() for index in self._play_order: playlist.add_media(self._vlc.media_new_path(self._songs[index])) self._list_player.stop() self._list_player.set_media_list(playlist) self._list_player.play() ``` And trying to seek is just this: ``` self._player.set_time(_s_to_ms(seconds)) ``` Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!

    I've somehow managed to bend a RAM clip so it can't clip anymore because it's blocking itself. I haven't been able to bend it back. Any suggestions?

    Do anyone else's wrist hairs get caught in the little gap between the frame and the trackpad/spacers?

    Does anyone know if it's possible to have events from the Keybow keyboard cause effects on the Pi Zero W running the keyboard instead of outputting to another machine? Or do I need to go with a different OS and figure out the handling of the keys myself?

    I just hibernated my laptop and then brought it back up, and it went straight into LMDE without asking me for a password on a lock screen. That seems.. like weird behavior. Is there something I can set to fix that?

    Anyone been able to set up a fingerprint reader in LMDE 6 with Cinnamon? I can use `fprintd-enroll` and `fprintd-verify` successfully, but it doesn't show up in `pam-auth-update` so I don't know how to add it to the login screen or the terminal.

    I know the drivers come in the distro package manager, but, is there a set straight from AMD? Trying to use Brave causes freezes and black screen flashes, which I'm pretty sure is a driver thing.

    Is there any way to complete the Outpost Control job? It's that only (non-First Order) job I haven't completed, and I'm not sure how to. I thought maybe I'd need to install and retrieve the skimmer, but I did that today and it didn't progress the job chat. Edit: I've tried installing defenses on every panel, but that also didn't work. Next time I'm on planet, I'll try installing the skimmer and leaving it long enough to gather some credits. Edit2: Okay, I think maybe it doesn't actually complete until one faction gains control of the outpost for the day, and not enough people play for that to happen. Damn.

    So, I have a bunch of services behind Authelia, utilizing LDAP hosted on my NAS. I log in once and it carries through my other services that are secured by Authelia, which is great. However, since my wife rarely visits these services - mostly when I send her links - she has to log in basically every time. I've contemplated putting our laptops on a network login backed by the same LDAP, though I haven't started researching how to do that yet. If I do, though, is there a way to have the laptop login integrate with Authelia or another solution to prevent login prompts? I know I could do it with Windows and AD, but we're both on Linux, so that complicates things a bit.

    Is there a way to set a movie extra to repeat endlessly? There's a fireplace feature that can cycle on the DVD but I'm not sure how to make it do that in Jellyfin. I have it in there as an extra.

    Is this a good deal?

    It seems good based on the price of just the CPU. If it's good, what kind of server case would it need?
