Cannot send from Firefox via Pocket to Kobo (new reader setup) [SOLVED] (lemmy.ml)
submitted 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) by m_e@lemmy.ml to c/kobo@lemmy.world

I've just bought a new colour Kobo and I'm trying to set up everything so I can send pages from Firefox to the Kobo for reading, but it ~~is~~ was not working, ~~so I would like some advice~~.

When I set up Pocket on my phone or my PC, it wants me to register with my Firefox id. Then I can save a page from Firefox and it turns up in Pocket.

When I am on the Kobo and I try to link it to Pocket it just gives me a code on the Kobo and expects me to type that into my phone. ~~But then the page from Firefox doesn't appear on the Kobo.~~

~~I think it's created two Pocket accounts. That's the only explanation I can think of. But I'm not sure, and I can't see any way to fix it.~~

edit: it turned out that my test page did not work in Article View. I've tried several other pages, and they have made it through to the Kobo.

He is Baron Cameron of Chipping Norton, so he is a lord.

Simulation 67 keeps the coroutine data on the heap (it is garbage collected).

It would be nice to have more information on how to use.

Also, what is the status of the Linux port?

The only language to get it right was Simula 67.

Can we have a text summary please?

Shared hosting for Stable Diffusion? (lemmy.ml)
 

Does anyone have experience in running Stable Diffusion on a cloud server?

I am looking at unmanaged servers (I get a root prompt) that are shared (I pay by for usage, say CPU second, not by the month) and can run SD (so at least a GPU with12GB of VRAM, CPU with 32GB or so of RAM).

SD capable cloud servers? (lemmy.ml)
 

Does anyone use cloud pcs with enough capacity to run sd? In particular, with a video card with enough vram. This would be as an alternative to buying a pc.

Idea: a hierarchical subreddit system in c/lemmy@lemmy.ml
[–] m_e@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Wikipedia has its hierarchical categories, for an example that is already working. More historically, the librarians have the Dewey decimal system and the subject classification system.

But it's a good idea and may give the fediverse an edge until reddit copies it.

Hardware requirements for SDXL on A1111? (lemmy.ml)
 

What are the hardware requirements to run SDXL?

In particular, how much VRAM is required?

This is assuming A1111 and not using --lowvram or --medvram.

Are there plans to add support for wiki pages? in c/lemmy@lemmy.ml
[–] m_e@lemmy.ml 3 points 2 years ago

Gitea, GitHub and the like allow the owners of a repository to create an associated wiki by selecting a preference check box. You should be able to copy the relevant code from any free/open source implementation. It would be useful for providing Frequently Asked Questions for the community for example.

Programming on an Android tablet in c/android@lemmy.ml

Set up a headless Raspberry Pi and connect by SSH and VNC. To connect the two devices use a USB cable.

Alternatives:

  • connect them both to a router using Ethernet/wifi.
  • use a very small PC in headless mode so you can run x86_64 executables.
  • access a shared git repository on the cloud using local clones on both devices to share files

This may be less sexy but it is solid and reliable.

Some communities that I would like to see (lemmy.ml)
 

moved from: https://lemmy.ml/post/1381521

Some communities that I would like to see (equivalent of some sub-reddits that I am subscribed to):

  • Christianity (like r/Christianity, not r/TrueChristian)
  • Anglicanism
  • DnDBehindTheScreen
  • interlingua
  • rust_gamedev
  • shenzhen
  • storyenginedeck

I've checked all these in lemmy.ml's search function and nothing as come up.

I'm not ready to take on the responsibility of moderating these myself.

Of course, they don't need to be on lemmy.ml, just somewhere federated.
