  • I use the AmazFit Band 7, the last sensibly sized watch that exists it often feels like.

    Weather fails to sync, but then it’s probably the least important feature on a watch. The only feature I really wish Gadgetbridge could do that even the official stack can’t is “nap mode”

    As a narcoleptic person still recovering from major depression, I wish I could either press a button to silence the watch and set a “smart alarm” for 30 minutes. Even better if it would turn on automatically if it detects me sleeping during the day!

    The only other thing GB can’t do is stand in for the phone-side ZeppOS API functionality, but who needs that, let’s be honest!

    Fantastic battery life to boot. I have gone two weeks after forgetting to charge it while wearing it almost 24×7!








  • I did in fact use to add large padding to the menus back when it was possible, so I couse use my drawing tablet to navigate bookmarks! But alas…

    I think it’s a bug specific to how Firefox handles menus though. Case in point, it only does this some of the times, usually after two levels. Just a single level, and it stays open, except when the second level is too wide to fit to the space available to the right—

    As I was typing this I realized that is it. It doesn’t work if the new level cannot open to the right of the menu. Then, moving the mouse away slightly closes it. But now that I’ve moved the bookmark menu button to the left, it stays open for four or five levels deep!

    Gotta get used to the new location, but good enough!!

    (I know, I need to sort out my mess of a bookmarks collection. It’s almost two decade old, cut me some slack!)






  • I would like to know this as well.

    So far, it seems it’s a bit easier to do with Podman / “standard OCI containers” because they’re rootless and get stored in my home directory. But the solution I keep seeing is to move the directory and then symlink or mount bind the folder. I do the latter so that podman continues to work when that external drive isn’t connected.

    This does actually work, but I really don’t like it. Why isn’t there a way to store a container entirely in a specific location and then run straight from that location?

    The alternative is to provide Podman a custom storage.conf for a specific location. But that too is a “permanent” change. I would love to know a cleaner solution to portable containers!
