Keypad to Control Entire Desk Setup - OLED TV, USB Switch, Lights, Desk, Macros... - David Zhang (youtube.com)
 

cross-posted from: https://programming.dev/post/6180665

I've been looking into putting together a home office setup for remote development and stumbled upon this nice home automation project by David Zhang, where they use a Raspberry Pi with a customized num pad to control almost every day-to-day arrangement of their office, from desk hight, KVM input/output switching, lighting, all the way to tiling window management. Looks like they've also published the combination of Auto Hotkey, Home Assistant and ESPHome scripts in order to work, including links to dependencies:

Anyway, I'm looking forward to scripting a similar setup once I've gathered the general equipment, and figured other programmers might similarly appreciate the ergonomics in such an automated workflow.

P.S. Any suggestions for a developer picking items for a new remote office from scratch would also be appreciated. E.g. office equipment recommendations like desk, chair, screen mounts, AV accessories.

Perhaps, is there an engineering meme community I could cross post this to?

It looks like another project outlined in the Bevy blogs that is also listed in steam (planned for release 2024) is Tiny Glade:

Does anyone have a favorite commercial game know to be developed using Bevy? Available on steam, Google Play, etc.

I know Bevy has a web site of indexing games from hackathons and what not, but I was more interested in seeing any commercially published titles.

All of my heat in winter comes from donating computing time to science. It's the same cost and amount of electricity as regular electric heat. Here's how. in c/zerowaste@lemmy.ml
[–] ruffsl@programming.dev 9 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

Any details on your setup?

  1. Do you use any ventilation to circulate the heated air through home?
  • E.g. do you place them in the basement and rely on raising connection l convention of heat, or dispersed around your living spaces?
  1. What scale of computing hardware do you host?
  • Retired server racks into a home lab?
  1. What grade of insulation is your home, the scale of the household?
  • built for what kind of winter climate zone in your geography?

Thanks!

How did you delimit the leaf pattern so evenly around the circumference of the brim of the bowl? Did you use a rotary indexer and a wood burning jig?

[TUI] Lazydocker: a lazier way to manage everything Docker | GitHub - jesseduffield in c/docker@programming.dev

Like a file tree view with respect to the context directory? Could be nice if it color coded the file by matching with the respective .dockerignore file as well. I'm always second guessing if I edited the ignore file correctly just after running docker build. Not like I can use git CLI to check if the .dockerignore change was interpreted as intended.

What was that device, an early cellular modem or 802.11 wireless bridge? The thing ontop of the briefcase looks like a head visor with an antenna. Google search keywords are just noise.

I'll note that when using multiple windows, I recall that switching the user in one window would switch the user for all other windows as well, so support for simultaneous user sessions would probably have to be added as well.

This is funny. @Ategon@programming.dev , could this bot include any citations? I was just curious about the source or context, as I'd guess it would have stirred up a debate. My guess is that this may have been a tweet or blog except, but it'd been fun to have a link to the direct source. Not sure that's available from the DB source these quotes are being pulled from.
