I host my own Lemmy instance and have a user account on it that I use everywhere (I don't host local communities, I just use it as a home for my Lemmy user account). I needed to re-home my Lemmy server, and though it's a docker installation, copying the /var/lib/docker/volumes/lemmy_* directories to the new installation didn't work. So I created a new Lemmy server.

How can I move my old account to the new server, so I can keep all my subscriptions and post/comment history?

I just got a Solo 2C+ NFC, but when I hold it up to the back of my phone, the web browser launches and loads https://solokeys.com. It doesn't seem to do anything as a security key.

I have a Pixel7 running GrapheneOS.

Has anyone else encountered this? Am I using it wrong? Thanks for guidance.

I bought an old iPad2 for the purpose of viewing a Home Assistant dashboard via a web browser. My thinking was that the ability to browse the web was the sole requirement for a tablet for this purpose, but I was wrong: Home Assistant's web pages apparently require a newer version of javascript than iOS 9.3.5 can handle, but the iPad 2 can only be updated to iOS 9.3.5.

So is it possible to flash a newer OS (e.g., linux) onto an old iPad 2? ChatGPT says it's not possible because a bootloader exploit for the iPad 2 isn't known, but ChatGPT is often wrong.

I'm confused by the different elements of HA's voice assistant sentences.

1. What's the difference between a conversation and an intent_script? Per HA's custom sentence example, a conversation has an intents sub-element, and an intent_script doesn't. Does a conversation's intent merely declare the element that will respond to the sentence, while an intent_script is purely the response (i.e., does an intents point to an intent_script)?

2. HA then explains that while the example above defined the conversation and intent_script in configuration.yaml, you can also define intents in config/custom_sentences/. Should you use both of these methods simultaneously or will it cause conflict or degrade performance? I wouldn't think you should define the same sentence in both places, but the data structure for their 2 examples are different - is 1 better than the other?

In configuration.yaml:

conversation:
  intents:
    YearOfVoice:
      - "how is the year of voice going"

In config/custom_sentences/en:

intents:
  SetVolume:
    data:
      - sentences:
          - "(set|change) {media_player} volume to {volume} [percent]"
          - "(set|change) [the] volume for {media_player} to {volume} [percent]"

3. Then they say responses for existing intents can be customized as well in config/custom_sentences/. What's the difference between a response and an intent_script? It seems like intent_script can only be defined in configuration.yaml and responses can only be defined in config/custom_sentences/` - is that right?

Thanks for any clarification you can share.

Hi. I run Moneydance in Ubuntu 22.04.2 and it periodically stops accepting keyboard input - not just in tet fields, but key shortcuts, keyboard navigation, everything related to keyboard. I have to quit and relaunch it for it to accept keyboard input again.

Moneydance is written in Java. Has anyone heard of Java apps dropping keyboard connectivity?
