Art Recommendations
Inspired by my mis-reading of a recent post title, I’d like to ask if anyone has strong recommendations for an artist who can capture my beautiful boy in paint? Canadian-based if possible?

[SOLVED] Using clangd with vscode to develop a flatpak
I’m developing a program in C++ targeting flatpak, since I’m on an immutable system I’d rather develop for flatpak than try using a container (plus I can’t get SDL to open a window in a container anyway). Everything works with GNOME Builder but it’s not as nice to use as vscode: less syntax highlighting, doesn’t...
What's the ideal self hosted RSS setup?
I have used FreshRSS before but I was always annoyed that some sites don’t provide RSS feeds and that even if they provide feeds they don’t provide the whole content through it and only a preview....

I think we have technology sufficiently advanced for me to have an Iron Golem follow me around and bash my enemies.

The joy of *not* eking-out games
Things have sort of come full circle for me. When I was younger, I recall playing a copy of Super Mario Bros 3 on Game Boy Advance and never being able to complete it (in fairness I eventually got to the final world). This was the case for a lot of games for me; essentially they’d have infinite replayability....

How did you get into coding/programming?
I’ve always had trouble getting into coding/programming because I’ve never truly dedicated myself to it. Mostly, this is because I kinda always lose momentum to learn it. I’m a heavy FOSS user; I love coreboot/Libreboot and am interested in getting into firmware development. I’ve already helped test hardware for...
Anyone drink tea? Have suggestions for a simple recipe?
I love coffee, but have a surplus of tea bags that I want to experiment with. Does anyone have suggestions for how to get started with tea? Or a simple recipe to use as a baseline? I’m only working with tea bags at this time, which appear to be 2g. I would also love to know how much agitation you are supposed to do with the...

How do I make enough money to live?
Yes, I do have a full-time job, and I even enjoy it, but it doesn’t pay enough to survive in this hellscape of a world we live in. I lack the college degree required to get almost any decent-paying job (plus my last job hunt took MONTHS to get a lead), I don’t have the skills or originality to become an online content...

How Much Is Your Time Worth?
I spend a lot of time fixing things, for myself and others. (Computers, electrical, plumbing, etc). While I learn a lot, I wonder sometimes if it would be better to pay a professional and do something else for which I am more ‘valuable’. Do you do the same, and do you find it worthwhile?
