Hi, sorry in advance for the poorly english. Hope i can make myself understandable.
I recentely bought a Colmi 8 Sky 8 Smartwatch. Very simple device that meet my needs by far. But, like others simmilars devices, it do not integrate with Strava.
I would like to create an automation wich when I start an activity with the smartwatch it triggers the same activity on Strava.
I tried the IFTTT - Strava is linked already - but I could make the trigger, at least with the free account.
Does anyone have any ideas that can help me? Or others forums/subreddits that I can search?
I have some dev knowledge and I'm willing to learn to make this work.
Thanks in advance
Hey guys! This is not a commercial but just asking about customer needs. ⭐ By filling out a survey you have a chance to win a free product or a 50% off discount! https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSffWk46JBEwKtKRy8klL3D92C_8J3kFU_FNpI93cqwMw4JiRQ/viewform?usp=sf_link ⭐
We’re a tech and AI company that is dedicated to customer robots and robotic devices. We’d like to introduce you to our NEW conceptual product - a “camera on wheels” that is able to drift freely (360° rotation / lateral drift / 45° oblique drift, etc.)
Now it comes with 1080P image, night vision, Wi-Fi connection, and app control. We’re thinking about making it a helpful addition for family and have five different options for ya!
How do you like that? Check out our draft and share your thoughts at the link above. Any suggestions on features, industrial design, size, speed, materials, etc. are also welcomed!
I'd like to know how difficult it is to make a script that activates after a certain amount of internet data usage and carries out tasks on a web browser. The reason i want this is because i have an unlimited 4g subscription (i have no cable connection) that requires me to log onto the providers website and activate it again after every Gb. This is free so it is indeed kind of unlimited but needing to log onto the website every 10 minutes is very annoying. I'm used to downloading up to 1.5 Tb a month. A script that does this for me would make my life a lot easier, especially when i"m not at home and am trying to download hundreds of Gbs of data. I'm quite intelligent and have basic knowledge of java, visual basic and html. I don't want to waste a lot of time researching something that will turn out to be too hard for me.
I'm using a pc with windows 10 btw
I re-image computers for my current job (deleting everything off of a computer, re-installing the operating system, joining the network, etc.)
Everything is done by manually typing in the same things over and over. Also, this would have to be done on the windows login screen too, if possible. For example, we start off by:
etc...
Being lazy (and needing to be fast), we use TONS of keyboard shortcuts.
So, can I use a flash drive to automatically input text on a computer that doesn't have some program installed? Like, run the program from the flash drive or something? Or does windows consider this as a virus and prevent it?
I believe this was written by /u/CantankerousMind Its a nice, useful tool if you upload a lot of files reguarly and don't want to manually go to several different file hosting websites. Check out AutoUploader here.
Either via your computer (bluetooth, wifi, usb, doesn't matter) or via the cellular network from your phone or through sending it text messages. Is there a product like this? Essentially I need something I can plug into the outlet that I can then control to turn it on and off dynamically (setting up my own rulesets).
Gimage download and instructions.
Gimage uses a built-in browser, so you can enter a search term into Google, narrow it down however you would like, then download the resulting images. So having the full power of a google search is nice.
The next update will include a configurable output location for images.
The next programs in the lineup are:
Netflix crawler that grabs the titles for the highest rated movies for each genre. Output results to a .csv file so I don't have to scroll through Netflix to find a good movie.
A crawler that lets you search for prices on specific commodities across multiple websites in order to find the best price for online shopping. Output results to a .csv file, and include FTP options. This one might take a little longer than a month so I'll probably work on it in pieces. I'm thinking websites like Target, Wal Mart, Best Buy, Amazon, and Google.
Let me know if you have any suggestions!
*/9 6,7,8,9,10,11 * * * env DISPLAY=:0.0; pkill mplayer; mplayer "$(find /path/to/Music|shuf -n 1)";
#*/9 = maximum snooze delay; #6,7,8,9,10,11 = hours to go off #I have not messed with DOM and MON, but DOW would also be good to set.
##best with alias responsibility="pkill mplayer";
I've been considered getting a raspberry pi and hooking it up to a switch for a winch to raise and lower things from my third story apartment.
Problem is, all of the winchs I've found are expensive and meant to haul multithousand kilo loads.
I only need 100 kilos or so.
Any ideas?
Would a garage door motor perhaps serve me better?
Thanks!
How to add SEEK and CareerOne jobs to your Job Search Efforts - youtube
edit: V0.2 to deal with SEEK messages clumping together in gmail (just make sure you reduce the trigger period to 1~5 mins, and only send a another job application after the trigger period has passed to ensure all is sent.
Installation Instruction for JobActive users:
var JSID = "YOUR JSID NUMBER HERE"
with your number.Disable Script:
Possible Extentions:
Filter Settings in Gmail:
Matches: from:(no_reply@careerone.com.au) subject:(Confirmation of Submission)
Matches: from:(service@seek.com.au) subject:(Job Application Confirmation)
Code was adapted from: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/10420435/trigger-google-apps-script-by-email

Title: Google Script Automatic Forwarder for JobActive
Version: V0.2 Jan 2016
Purpose: To automate the process shown in [How to Add SEEK or CareerOne Jobs to My Job Search Effort]( https://jobsearch.gov.au/documents/how%20to%20add%20seek%20job%20applications%20to%20my%20job%20search%20effort.pdf )
Why?: You cannot automatically foward email to an external email account you do not own in gmail.
Author: Mofosyne
Installation Instruction for JobActive users:
1. Make sure that you have an email produced in https://jobsearch.gov.au/Jobseekers/PersonalDetails/RegistrationDetails . This is because JobSearchEffort@employment.gov.au will only accept emails that belongs to you.
2.1. Setup your Gmail filter to append the label 'JobActive-UNSENT' from accepted job search website (As of 2016 Jan, this is only SEEK or CareerOne)
2.2. Also create a label 'JobActive-SENT' to handle emails that has already been sent to JobActive
3. Go to script.google.com and create a new empty script.
4. Copy this script over to the IDE window of script.google.com and edit the `var JSID = "YOUR JSID NUMBER HERE"` with your number;
5. In the same scripting window, go to menu "Resources / Current Project's Triggers" and set the Trigger event to be time based every couple of minutes or less (or whatever you feel like).
6. Now everytime you make an application on these job websites, your confirmation email will be automatically forwarded to JobActive with the required JobSeeker ID appended to the subject as required.
Disable Script:
1. In script.google.com go to menu "Resources / All your triggers", and delete the trigger for jobActiveForwarder()
Possible Extentions:
* Have a seperate GUI interface or google app to make it easier for non technical users to install and use.
* Install & Remove script/interface
* Investigate if filters can be added or removed.
Filter Settings in Gmail:
Matches: from:(no_reply@careerone.com.au) subject:(Confirmation of Submission)
Do this: Apply label "JobActive-UNSENT"
Matches: from:(service@seek.com.au) subject:(Job Application Confirmation)
Do this: Apply label "JobActive-UNSENT"
Code was adapted from: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/10420435/trigger-google-apps-script-by-email
