I ran in this trouble, where Photoshop app can’t be opened, after I used Migration Assistant.app on my MacBook Air from my Intel iMac.

I think I’ve reached a good level of information for this 800x480px (Pimoroni HyperPixel 4") display:

But this image don’t tell a lot if you haven’t spent days in watching the code and organizing the sections in order to make it usefuel and aesthetically pleasant, so here are the changes highlighted:

Because it’s a real mess to reinstall Big Sur!

I don’t know what went on with this time but it has drove me crazy for one morning… let’s start the story saying that those ARM Macs are beautiful/fantistic/great products!

So I bought a MacBook Air, and in order to start I thought “too lazy to prepare again all the thing of my installation, I haven’t done it, and I’m cloning it, since Snow Leopard…” so, let’s try as usual with the great and indispensable Carbon Copy Cloner. So I started the MBA holding the power button, entered recovery mode, set…

In the research of show more useful stats/infos on the display of my Raspberry PI I found another useful data: when Unbound has updated the root.hints file with the 13 root name servers in order to get the authoritative name servers. A you can see from the image I added under the Unboun section the “Updated: January 11, 2021”

But I run in some trouble for a quite silly reason: if you have installed Unbound via a package manager, it has downloaded and installed the root.hints, and updated, by default in /usr/share/dns/. …

Unfortunately after almost 10 years of great service, my photo backup hard drive has encountered some troubles… I don’t know what was wrong because from my checks all was good, but I still wasn’t unable to tranfer files, after 4/5Gb it was failing every time. See these weird errors:

I’ve just read on CanonWatch (article) about this new Canon camera that should be available on the market in the next weeks (and it’s already available for preorders). And I think anyone should boycott this thing but I also think that -fortunately- it will have no success and it will end up in the oblivion.

The camera is not a true camera, is more like CCTV camera, it stays on every time (well I hope the battery last the least possible, 2.5hours from the specs) and it should follow the faces in the area, and also a big area due…

Since I’m using Unbound on the Pi-Hole, that will give you better privacy and performance for your DNS, I wanted to have some infos about what Unbound is and how it’s performing. So I decided to delete some not useful (for me) infos on PADD, and I replaced them with Unbound stats.

I wrote a simply tutorial of my setup, that I suggest you to read before going forward, you can find it here.

First of all you need to enable Unbound stats by editing

/etc/unbound/unbound.conf.d/pi-hole.conf

and add this text

# Remote control config section. remote-control: control-enable: yes

Then restart…

I needed to play an italian television news only channel (Rai News 24) on my Echos devices without a display, but there wasn’t the skill to do it, so I built my own using the .m3u8 official stream from the channel, yes the stream with video, works as audio only on Echo devices.

And this is a simply tutorial to build the same if you are italian, or another straming radio/channel/tv with a custom stream url (I think works only for .m3u8 streams but you can try with other formats). Start:
