Since I’ve had so many problems with Nextcloud updates in the past, I’m now sticking with the oldest LTS version for as long as possible and won’t update until it reaches its end of life. This has really improved my Nextcloud experience. The update to major version 32 went smoothly. I only had to run two commands manually afterward.
docker exec --user www-data nextcloud-app php occ db:add-missing-indices
docker exec --user www-data nextcloud-app php occ maintenance:repair --include-expensive

About seven years ago, I wrote down the Firefox extensions I was using. I kept the list updated for a while. Looking at the list now, many of these extensions are still relevant to me today. So here’s an updated version.
In der Meine Formulare App können über den BAdI HCMFAB_B_MYFORMS ganz einfach Spalten ausgeblendet werden. Dafür eine BAdI Implementierung anlegen und die Methode FILL_FORM_SPECIFIC_FIELDS ausprogrammieren. Zum Entfernen einer Spalte muss diese einfach aus dem CHANGING Parameter ct_form_specific_fields gelöscht werden.
Dabei einfach über den FORM_TYPE auf das entsprechende Formular filtern und die gewünschte Spalte entfernen:
DELETE ct_form_specific_fields WHERE form_type = 'SAP_INT_TIM_STM' AND field_id = 'DEVIATION'. "Abweichung entfernen

I’ve been using my Proxmox HTPC for six years now. All this time, I’ve been watching YouTube via YouTube Leanback in a full-screen Firefox Browser window. This is most of the time working fine, but from time to time you have to change the user-agent if something stops working or the video quality is poor for some reason.
And while I was once again searching for a new user-agent which improves the YouTube Leanback experience, I randomly stumbled on VacuumTube. This was something I always wanted/needed for my HTPC! Using Firefox was working fine, and I could also use all Firefox Extensions that exists for YouTube. But it also has drawbacks, like keyboard shortcuts were not working well (depending on the user-agent used) or, as mentioned already, the video quality is sometimes limited. Therefore, I gave VacuumTube a try and must say, since then it is working perfectly! With version v1.4.0 it even got SponsorBlock integrated! Right now, there is really no feature missing for me.
What I recently found is, that you can save videos to your Watch later playlist without starting to play the actual video. Simply long press the enter key on your keyboard and select “Save to Watch later” on the menu that appears. At least in Firefox, none of the user agents I tested were able to do that. Really cool!
Another handy feature is that you can turn the subtitles on and off using the ‘C’ key.
A few years ago, I bought a used Samsung CHG90 (LC49HG90DMUXEN) monitor on eBay. After I got the device, I learned that this model series had a hardware issue (see here or here). Fortunately, the problems only occurred every few weeks. Since some people on Reddit wrote that a firmware update had improved the situation, even though it was a hardware issue, I tried updating the firmware as well. There is a generic update guide from Samsung, but it is not detailed enough to actually do the update…
The required firmware update can be found on the Samsung website under support > user manuals and guide and by searching with the model code: LC49HG90DMUXEN
https://www.samsung.com/de/support/user-manuals-and-guide
Although the latest firmware version is from September 2020, I was able to perform an update because my monitor was still running version 1017.2. The hardest part was figuring out how to find the software updater in the monitor menu, but after a quick search in the documentation, I found the right section. The trick was to open the menu and hold down the arrow key for 5 seconds.

The update took only a few seconds and completed successfully. Let’s see if this improves anything…
Recently I bought a new car and the previous owner replaced the standard board computer with a tablet running Android Auto. On my phone, I use the popular VLC player to listen to music and AntennaPod for podcasts. To my surprise, both apps did not appear in the Android Auto Launcher after I connected my phone. After a quick search on Perplexity, I found out that the most likely reason is that the apps weren’t installed via the Google Play Store. That made sense in my case, since both apps were installed via the F-Droid store.
It seems you can’t make just any app of your smartphone available for Android Auto, but at least apps that are generally supported by Android Auto can be made visible via the developer settings of Android Auto. To do this, open the Android Auto settings on your smartphone by searching for Android Auto in your phone’s settings. Scroll all the way down to the Information section.
Tap Version ten times and confirm “Allow development settings”. After that, you can find the developer options in the three-dot menu on the top right.
Here search for unknown sources (“Unbekannte Quellen” in german) and tick the checkbox.
After that, additional apps suddenly appeared in the Android Auto Launcher settings that I could add, including VLC Player and AntennaPod.
Für einen direkten Absprung von z.B. einer Stellenanzeige einer Karriereseite zu dem zugehörigen Jobangebot im Recruiting, muss ein Link folgendermaßen aufgebaut sein:
https://hcm12preview.sapsf.eu/career
?company=xxxx
&site=
&lang=de_DE
&career_ns=job_application
&career_job_req_id=5698
Dies kann hilfreich sein, wenn man den Karriere-Feed in einem Drittsystem eingebunden hat, aber dennoch einen direkten Absprung für den Bewerber haben möchte.
Kürzlich habe ich die My Reporting App in der S/4HANA Version auf einem System aktiviert. Nach der Einrichtung bin ich aber in die folgende generische Fehlermeldung gelaufen:
App kann nicht geöffnet werden, weil die SAP-UI5-Komponente der Anwendung nicht geladen werden konnte.
UI5-Komponente für Navigationsabsicht “#Manager-launchReports?scenarioId=SAP_EXAMPLE” wurde nicht geladen.
Ein Blick in die Konsole zeigte, dass versucht wurde, eine weitere Komponente namens hcm_reuselibs1 zu laden. Diese wird in der Fiori Reference Library zu der App nicht erwähnt, aber nach der Aktivierung, ließ sich die App erfolgreich laden.
