  • Observed effect of Methylphenidate on the 8y/o - really helpful?

    Jump

  • It's really interesting to see the different effects that these ADHD drugs have on different people.

    I'm a recently diagnosed 49-year-old and I went through test rounds of increasing dosages of both methylphenidate and lisdexamfetamine. I maxed out both dosages and it the effects were so minimal that I couldn't even tell I had taken anything. I'm not taking anything now., I just manage the best I can with non-medicinal methods.

  • Alberta removes requirement for officials to publicly disclose receipts for expenses over $100

    Jump

  • Less accountability sure seems like it'll prevent scandals. Because there will be no way to find out that someone in government dropped $5K on hookers and blow...assuming that hookers and drug dealers provide receipts.

  • MRW I get a notification that the three-month waiting period is over and Section 31 memes are free game

  • I don't think this is true because Im not sure Section 31 even counts as Star Trek

  • Drummer for indie rockers the New Pornographers arrested over child sexual abuse images

  • Damn it. This is one of my favourite bands. What's the protocol here, am I still allowed to like them? What if they get a new drummer?

  • Huginn is a self-hosted, open-source alternative to IFTTT and Zapier

    Jump

  • Like the author of that article, I had never heard about Huginn until just now, but when IFTTT went down the shitter for me (around 2018) was about the same time I started using Home Assistant. I found that HA had every one of the service connections available that I used to use through IFTTT, so I naturally just re-implemented all of my flows as automations. HA has only added capabilities since those earlier days. It's not just for "home" automation.

    If you're interested in more graphical representations of your automations, HA can have NodeRed as a plug-in.

  • Mastodon to GoToSocial Migration

    Jump

  • If I could not just migrate to a new instance, but actually convert my existing (self-hosted, single-user) Mastodon instance to a GoToSocial instance, I would do it tomorrow. I don't want to lose the domain I picked for my Mastodon instance though.

    I remember seeing somebody working on a project to convert the Mastodon database to a GTS database, so this may yet happen.

    Edit: Found it. It was an issue in the GTS GitHub repo: https://github.com/superseriousbusiness/gotosocial/issues/128

  • Has anyone here installed friendica? I tried to give it a go yesterday with the the docker image. The login page is showing up, but it is giving me HTTP 500 errors when I click sign up I also get no errors in any logs.

  • Grouping zones

    Jump

  • A person's state becomes the name of the zone when they're in them.

    In the current version of Home Assistant, if a person is in two overlapping zones, what happens? It's possible to be in that state today.

    I suppose it doesn't really matter though. I've named all my home zones similarly: home1, home2, etc. It would be easy enough to check for a zone where the object_id starts with "home"

  • Grouping zones

    Jump

  • I...honestly thought I just did that. I want to have an irregularly-shaped zone. I don't see why they couldn't logically be grouped, you just aren't able to do it right now.

    Anyway, thanks for reading what I typed.

  • Grouping zones

    Jump

  • I am pretty sure I'm not confused. I want to group zones together so they can be used in automation triggers and I can change the group's membership and not have to change every automation trigger. The group's state should indicate the number of person entities that were in any zone in the group.

    I'm not talking about areas at all.

    Just to be clear, I don't believe grouping zones is currently possible. It's just a want I have.

  • Grouping zones

    Jump

  • You don't get the choice to use more than one zone as your official "home" zone though, do you?

  • Grouping zones

    Jump

  • Like when you create a zone, it's a circle. It has a radius. I want a zone that is an arbitrary shape, so I compose it out of several smaller zones. I want to formally make it a single zone in Home Assistant by grouping them. Currently you can't add zones to groups or create a zone with type: group or anything like that.

  • I wish the web interface let you sort the sub categories both ways. I have a series of subcategories of Year/month that I'm using as a journal and the longer I keep writing, the further have to scroll down :/
