New to CircuitPython, this feels like it should work according to the docs but it prints six Falses. Any ideas?

#!/usr/bin/env python
import board
import digitalio
import time

class body_controller:

  def __init__(self):
    SWDIO = board.D5
    self._reset_pin = digitalio.DigitalInOut(SWDIO)
    print(self._reset_pin.value)
    self._reset_pin.switch_to_output(True)
    print(self._reset_pin.value)

  def turn_on(self):
    print(self._reset_pin.value)
    self._reset_pin.value = False
    print(self._reset_pin.value)
    time.sleep(1)
    print(self._reset_pin.value)
    self._reset_pin.value = True
    print(self._reset_pin.value)

body = body_controller()
time.sleep(1)
body.turn_on()
time.sleep(1)

This happens if I use set_time or set_position. Is this typical, or am I just not doing it right?

This is on a Pi Zero 2 W, so not the most powerful, but should be able to handle this.

These are the relevant bits of how I'm setting up the player:

    self._vlc = vlc.Instance()
    self._player = self._vlc.media_player_new()
    self._list_player = self._vlc.media_list_player_new()
    self._list_player.set_media_player(self._player)

    playlist = self._vlc.media_list_new()
    for index in self._play_order:
      playlist.add_media(self._vlc.media_new_path(self._songs[index]))

    self._list_player.stop()
    self._list_player.set_media_list(playlist)
    self._list_player.play()

And trying to seek is just this:

    self._player.set_time(_s_to_ms(seconds))

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!

I have a Keybow MINI hooked up to a Raspberry Pi Zero W, and I'm using Python to respond to events. I have one button that kicks off playing a song on a passive buzzer, and I'm wondering if there's a way to have a button press stop the song before it completes.

Does anyone know if it's possible to have events from the Keybow keyboard cause effects on the Pi Zero W running the keyboard instead of outputting to another machine? Or do I need to go with a different OS and figure out the handling of the keys myself?

So, I have a bunch of services behind Authelia, utilizing LDAP hosted on my NAS. I log in once and it carries through my other services that are secured by Authelia, which is great.

However, since my wife rarely visits these services - mostly when I send her links - she has to log in basically every time. I've contemplated putting our laptops on a network login backed by the same LDAP, though I haven't started researching how to do that yet. If I do, though, is there a way to have the laptop login integrate with Authelia or another solution to prevent login prompts?

I know I could do it with Windows and AD, but we're both on Linux, so that complicates things a bit.

So, I watched a TV show a while ago and have forgotten what it's called and can't find it. Anyone have any ideas on this one?

• Woman is going through something rough and a person gives her a card and is like come talk to me
• That person functions kind like a therapist but there's something mystical going on
• There are doors that go to other places
• Her therapist retires after a season or two
• She starts helping others in the same way
• There's a bartender that does the same thing at some point

Maybe not much to go on, but I'm hoping someone recognizes it.

Edit: It's Lovesick! Thank you, @magic_window@lemmy.world!

Hi! I'm hoping someone can help me out. I'm trying to find a show I streamed a while ago. Here's what I remember:

• It was a British show
• Two guys were roommates; I think the apartment was messy
• They had a woman friend
• One of the roommates and the friend were in love but they kept having bad timing
• I think the other friend was a manager at a company?
• I think the woman had to move in with them at some point?
• There was a guy named Jono (sp?) who kept saying, "I'm Jono"

I want to be able to control my thermostat from my phone, so I'm looking for recommendations for one that meets the following:

• Works with no network access (as in, I can access it but it can't access anywhere else, enforced via VLAN on my firewall)
• Lets me control my single apartment thermostat (temperature, heat/cool, maybe programming but it's okay if I have to do that on the unit directly)
• Not hundreds of dollars
• No microphone

Any thoughts? Really just want something simple.

Edit: I have no other smart home devices right now, if that matters.

I wasn't sure where to ask this, so please feel free to direct me to a different community if there's a good one for this question.

Are there any US banks that allow their clients programmatic access to their own data? As far as I'm aware, that's not really a thing in the US, but I might be willing to switch banks if there are any that provide access.

Like, to make folders/categories/collections of them so you can collapse groups in the sidebar?

Basically, which linux distro is the best for a non-power user? Someone who wants to be able to get up and running without having to learn how to manage the OS using the cli.

Quick example: When I install a new OS, the first thing I want to do is install Brave. That should be as easy as "click on this thing, type in brave, select Brave, install."
