  • Not open source but freeware and really simple and powerful. Absolutely no BS program and it just gets right to the business.

    https://www.faststone.org/

    I’ve used it for years on Windows. I wish there was a similar program for Linux thats just freaking works.

    Forgot to mention that it is stupid farst since it preloads images into memory so it can display images instantly hence the name. Perfect for browsing network shares. I only used the faststone image viewer, so not sure how the other programs work but I’m sure they are great too.


  • Fyi there ar multiple standards for Poe with different voltages and some Poe switches only does one or maybe two standards (most often at 48-57 V) but if you have older/cheaper Poe devices they might use passive Poe at 24-38V and not all switches supports that mode simultaneously with the more modern Poe standards. Some switches will “support” both modes but only one mode at the time for all ports or maybe its just pasively passing on the input voltage as output voltage. Luckily most Poe switches support auto detection (unless its a crappy no name brand) and having that feature will protect your non Poe devices from damage. Poe is detected by some specific resistance steps on the wires (don’t quote me) but this means if you have very long wires auto detection might not work but that will always default to off. You can usually on a proper brand switch force a port to be on but then be sure to physically mark that port with a sticker or something saying it’s “HOT” because then there’s no protection for non Poe devices any longer.

    I won’t recommend any switch for you at the moment untill I know more about your skill level and use case.











  • Well I’ll keep it short. Godt stressed and depressed and after way too long time not dealing with ot it got so bad i begged my girlfriend for help to force me to call for help. Talked to a psychiatrist and started taking methylphenidat and now i feel a lot better. Its been one and a half year now. I still have my upps and downs, brain fog, and days with nothing but distracted brain, but over all its going better.


  • I’ve been there far too often and beaten myself up for not doing anything to no help at all. After I finally dragged my “lazy” ass to the doc being depressed af and got a diagnosis i understood how bad i was. Now i have methylphenidat (Ritalin uno extended release) i can actually do something. I would never be able to do what i can now without it. I cannot see any other way or any technique that can work as well as my meds without also feeling like beating and wipping myself along at the same time. The meds makes the beating and wipping unnecessary and im just more happy.

    I hope you find a way, but if you know you have adhd and you have trouble please go talk with your doc about it.

    I’m sorry but I have no other recommendations than meds that I can confidently say will have a lasting effect. Then while on meds you can hopefully gain some new strong habits that over time can minimise the need for them, but learning those same habits without, will be nothing but self torture.



  • Already deleted organic maps and downloaded comaps instead and used it yesterday. Works great for navigation showing intersections and turns at a nice zoom level and clear guides. Love it over Google maps already.

    Only major downside is live traffic and also that map changes for closed roads doesn’t seem to update the navigation. The navigation still takes me down a temporary closed road that as far as I can see on osm.org is marked as closed but I’m not sure who’s fault it is because the road is also still visible on osm.org and only by selecting the road and looking at metadata can I see that it is closed. Not sure how and where to report this bug.
