Oooh, don’t fall asleep with these on!

Isn’t like 50% of the internet broken for you if you’re only running IPv6? It seems like so many websites , especially small ones, still aren’t setting up v6 addresses

Not all bad. Git is an incredible system for collaboration and humans have been honing it to improve quality and share work across teams for decades now.

Allowing bots to play a carefully defined role is probably going to end up being a net improvement but there are still kinks.

Masquerading as a human needs to be fixed though - I can see why it’s happening and that’s one of the first problems to solve.

I understand where you’re coming from, but of course the Linux I want to use is not a business with a centralized marketing department vying for market share. It’s something that I can customize and make into whatever I want it to be.

I think that’s why many people want to use Linux - they’re not pigeonholed into decisions made to gain market share, they’re free to choose whatever works well for them.

Paradoxically, 20 plus years ago people chose PCs and Microsoft over Apple for much of the same reason. We could select our own hardware from any manufacturer, easily run our own executables and develop code in any direction desired.

It’s hard to see that being a good thing

You’re right. I got in the habit of doing that because I’m endlessly tweaking my .env files and I don’t think those reload unless you shut down first

Never run:

docker compose pull
docker compose down
docker compose up -d

Right before the end of your day. Ask me how I know 😂

Huly is worth checking out. We’ve been on it for about a year. They’re in super active developments so features are coming rapidly, sometimes breaking or requiring migrations.

They have both a SaaS version and self-hosted version.

Handful of Windows desktop apps that don’t work well on Wine - WeChat desktop, LINE app desktop. I do tons of copy pasting of mocked up screenshots and stuff. It just doest work as well as in windows.

I have a laptop and a handful of desktops between my office and home. Some run Windows and some run Linux. I simply choose which one matches my task best.

Systems where I’m writing server-side code are going to be Linux. Systems that run jobs in the back end such as my self hosting stuff are all Linux. Systems where I’m doing email, documents, and general web browsing are going to be Windows.

Of course, my Windows systems have WSL, and my Linux systems can run Windows apps in virt. These days the line is super blurred and it would no doubt be possible to use only one if I were willing to give up some native app running.

A lot of FOSS projects are freemium based which seems viable for larger more complex projects.

In these projects it’s common to see the developer get paid for adding features on top of the core version, for a SaaS version, for custom development, or for offering support.

Other projects with a lot of community interest - and a good “community manager” style organizer can attract contributors in the form of pulls, bug testing and reports, and widespread use which generates valuable marketing. These projects only exist because of the labor of love from the whole community.

I used Waymo half a dozen times or so when traveling to San Francisco this year.

The experience was actually quite good. The cars arrive within a minute or two, they’re clean and high-end (for what amounts to a taxi), and you can set up the atmosphere according to your mood. The driving was smooth and uneventful.

Unless they raise the prices significantly, I would continue to choose Waymo over human drivers.

We’re about to go through about 10 years of vibe coded garbage aren’t we.

Interesting, I want to try some of these solutions.

I set up luks on some of my selfhosted virtualbox instances to protect against physical theft, but power issues cause all too frequent restarts that are a serious pain to physically access.

An ssh call in a script that could be remotely used to unlock and complete the boot would be so handy.

A dozen years ago or so there was a huge uproar about “common core” mathematics, which was a new standard being used in the USA for teaching.

It was a politicized trendy topic and even so-called-intellectuals were jumping on the train and calling it a deranged way of learning math.

I looked into it a bit, and I swear this pic pretty much sums up one of the key methods they were teaching.

Basically just tricks that a lot of people figure out to simplify problems.

In that vein of thinking, nobody needs appliances.

However we are in the home assistant group so I think people are interested in linking things in their house together and controlling them centrally (if “central” does not mean the manufacturer) in an effort to make them smarter.

Eek, I’m moving towards nextcloud (and away from Google fast as possible). Is there a better all-in-one groupware + files + collab + office apps suite out there?

It does appear that nextcloud’s devs are eyeballs deep in php tech debt, so their pace of development and integration has slowed.

It’s so big that none of their FOSS components are going to be #1 on their own.

Recently upgraded the version and had to allow untested app versions (which had just disappeared) because they hadn’t been updated yet. That’s a weird problem and yeah, I don’t really want to be beta tester everytime I try and open a document.

They also don’t really have a nice docker compose based deployment yet.

But I couldn’t be happier to be leaving google in the dust, so there’s that.

Your’s is an interesting edge case but maybe the best solution is keeping a folder full of pics on an external drive and plugging it in only when you need it?

There’s a really nice Google Take-Out parser for immich that will preserve all your meta data during import. It was kind of a dream to use, it worked so smoothly.

In my case, I moved about 100k photos and videos, and I’m still periodically finding old flash drives and SD cards laying around that were never imported, so im using the migration to catch up on decades of photo archival. So far, all good.

This is a general complaint about vehicles, not necessarily EVs, and extends to trucks, motorcycles, and basically anything that gives humans more range than their feet.

This position would probably be best directed at the city planning office.
