  • Zuzahlungsforderung Krankentransport von der Krankenkasse: Falsch - Einsatzbericht noch gefunden, dort stand "kein Transport".
  • Pflegegutachten für meine Tochter: Falsch. Widerspruch erfolgreich.
  • Anfrage zu Assistenzleistungen für meine Tochter: Ablehnung, Falsch, bekommt sie nun.
  • Mahnung wg. Kita Essengeldern: Falsch, das 2. Mal bereits, diesmal sitze ich das aus.
  • Anspruch auf Kita Platz abgelehnt: Unterlagen über Berufstätigkeit bei der Kommune verloren gegangen.
  • Bewertung für neue Grundsteuer laut Katasteramt der Kommune falsch: Widerspruch.

Ich könnte das jetzt mit etwas nachdenken noch fortsetzen. Das kostet alles so viel Zeit und Energie und wenn man diese Fehler berichtigt, gibt es keine Entschuldigung.

Wir benötigen dringend eine , die jedesmal pauschal zugunsten der falsch belasteten Privatperson anfällt, wenn sie eine Forderung einer Behörde oder Versicherung nicht erfüllen musste. Um die Kosten für die Bearbeitung zu decken und eine Motivation zu schaffen, Mahnungen und Bescheide sorgfälltiger auszustellen und zu prüfen.

Setting up a new I tried to setup a portal for a registration vlan and failed miserably. The portal didn't show.

The solution turned out to be quiet simple: a dns misconfiguration that seems to be part of the default configuration when installing packetfence in Debian.

To learn more about and integration into I set up a packetfence server on an H3.

I'll try to integrate a TP Link RE500 running . While reading into wifi related stuff I found the README which turned out to be a perfect introduction to the topic.

It didn't deliver on my expectation for documentation about the file hostapd.vlan in OpenWRT, but that might be an include as well. Otherwise its content has been a nice surprise!

I guess we really need some law that makes it possible to buy a car and opt-out completely for any data transmission from the car to anybody. This is what happens if the data once is collected:

I'd wish that @noybeu@mastodon.social would look into this. Transformation to electric driving (if driving cars is needed at all) is important, but all the electric cars I looked at seem to inevitably send data to their manufacturer.

When doing the to share keyboard/mouse between my and my notebook on the Librem5 still the on-screen keyboard () keeps popping up and takes away part of the small screen.

This can be disabled through gsettings but doing so each time when I place the phone beside my notebook is tiresome.

So I recovered some old proof of concept I had made, tested it and packaged it:

switch-keyboard installs an rule that triggers when an external keyboard is connected and disables the osk. On disconnect it re-enables the osk and there is an entry for the menu included to just toggle the keyboard on and off just in case you're left without after disconnecting an external keyboard.

@white_gecko@chaos.social guessed it already: It's a really cute hardware hack called the .

Everything you need to know to build a can be found in its repository.

The parts you'll need are easily found and the pcb can be manufactured using the provided files.

Or you could look for a complete set of parts on flohmarkt.

and notebook sharing the same keyboard and mouse.

Moving the mouse over the edge of the screen into the direction of the other device brings the mouse focus to the other device - just like moving the mouse between displays in a dual screen setup.

The keyboard focus follows. It is like a kvm that is controlled by the mouse position.

Let's practice some . ​s still missing, but on their way.

Looking for a design with the following features:

  • 1 usb-c power in for a usb-c pd power supply
  • 1 usb-c connector to connect to a device
    • that consumes pd power (5V / 3A)
    • that connects to the other ports of the hub
  • 2 usb-a ports powered from the hub to connect keyboard, mouse or a memory stick

If possible (would be extremely nice):

  • a third usb-c connection to connect some usb-c device like a smartcard reader, simple memory stick, etc. (wouldn't need pd)

Any suggestions?

Note to myself: to regenerate a config file in use

pfcmd service <service> generateconfig

afterwards it could be restarted by

pfcmd service <service> restarting

Restarting a service using pfcmd service always recreates the configuration from the templates.

I intentionally broke audio output of and :

Lately I found that I'd sometimes like to click on audio content people are sharing. I do and somehow expectedly I can't hear what Firefox starts playing.

Found OpenWith which allows to open an URL through its context menu with any configured external program.

Now I can open links to a lot of content by using FreeTube.

Just registered an un-official room for .

This just broke. It stopped working one day without smoke or smell.

It has been connected to a 12V lamp which it could dim. Beside being most times switched on and off by a switchable wall socket touching the lamp a short time switched the light also. Holding the lamps case made the lamp dim down, back up, down again and so on.

I'm not an electrical engineer, but I know some very basic of the parts I can find inside the device.

How would I go about trying to figure out why this thing stopped working and maybe repair it by exchanging some of its components?

A good reason to not like is there use of . With my and its cookie settings and blockers I can't log in, because cloudflare can't check the "security of my connection".

stopping - some thoughts:

  • gives most governments tax income
  • follow-up costs of smoking are covered by health insurances and/or individual cost for care
  • smoking often goes along with average lower education and/or psychological problems getting off addictive substances (or not starting with them at all)

To put it together my impression is that politics are corrupted by the tax income from selling cigarettes. The additional tax money is paid by people needing help, because they do not understand how bad smoking is for there health or they are not able to get away from the by themself. For each Cent tax incoming from cigarettes politics are willing to let shareholders of cigarette companies take their share. All the bill in the end is paid by the health systems.

This all seems like a scheme to take money out of the health system and divert it to shareholders and tax.

The suffering of the people getting ill from smoking is not even part of this equation.

I bet taking a closer look at who pays most of the costs for smoking by money and lifetime and who gains from the things financed by states with the additional tax money does even paint a darker picture.

That the dividend paid to shareholders can only make the riches richer is the obvious part.
