Dude, life is too short to wash spoons with your hands

Holy fuck I haven’t thought about old Greg in awhile

Those two days aren’t really spent configuring, they’re spent learning.

second time doesn’t take two days, but yeah you’re right.

I don't know anything about Linux and the idea of installing it frightens me. Where do I start?

I bought a laptop yesterday, it came pre-installed with Windows 11. I hate win 11 so I switched it down to Windows 10, but then started considering using Linux for total control over the laptop, but here’s the thing: I keep seeing memes about how complicated or fucky wucky Linux is to install and run. I love the idea of open...

Ubuntu is dead

Kinda showed your ass with this one

traches ,

The guy who wrote it is the editor-in-chief.

It’s a gag, I promise. He’s talked about it on their podcast

traches ,

First I’d ask if you need to open ports at all - if this is only for your family’s use then Tailscale or one of its alternatives can accomplish the same goal without opening ports in your firewall or worrying about security flaws in your hosted services.

If it’s for public use, maybe consider cloudflare tunnel?

Which RSS aggregator do you use? I cannot seem to find one that works for me.

I cannot stand google news any more, too much spam, clickbait and advertisement. So I decided to try to selfhost an RSS aggregator to make myself a news feed that I would be comfortable with. Being RSS such an “ancient” thing I thought there will be many mature systems, but I’m not sure that’s the case…...

Personally I use miniflux, which has been amazing. It offers the fever and Google reader APIs, which many phone apps can talk to which means the UI can be almost whatever you want (I’m using reeder on iOS)

It supports all the feed formats, but for sites that don’t offer a feed you’ll need some other solution like kill-the-newsletter.com

  • If you don’t have a surplus of time and energy, self hosting is not for you. You’re taking on administration that normal people effectively contract out
  • docker is worth learning and using. It’s one thing to learn, and with that knowledge you can run basically everything. It really does make your life easier

This meme is bullshit, they aren’t just eyeballing it. They analyze bones for muscle attachments and do modeling and shit

traches ,

Yes they used to not know what they were doing before they figured out what they were doing

traches ,

It doesn’t? Been a month or two since I updated the ISO but I’ve never had a problem

‘dd if=image.iso of=/dev/do_not_fuck_this_up bs=4M’ is a complete tutorial

Your quoted paragraph is the only sane alternative to the ad supported internet. Think Fastmail vs gmail - both are run for a profit, but fastmail’s business model is to simply sell subscriptions. Their incentives are better aligned with the consumer, and while nobody’s going to become a billionaire off the company I have to imagine that they have a very reliable customer base.

Good software should be paid for, devs gotta eat

traches ,

I know nothing about this person, but on multiple occasions I’ve had the thought that if I was a gazillionaire, I’d sponsor a bunch of open source. Maybe this is that? I’ll choose to stay hopeful (though I’m kinda dumb about this sorta stuff)

traches ,

That’s fair, but I’ll point out that eating is sort of a subscription model.

traches ,

The biggest problem frameworks solve is “I need the value of this variable to be on the page and I need it to stay up-to-date.” If you don’t have this problem, or you only have it in a couple of places where hand-writing the necessary event listeners isn’t too arduous, then yeah you don’t really need a front end js framework.

My advice is to just use Tailscale. It’s a 5 minute setup and you get access to your stuff from anywhere, securely, without opening ports to the public internet. It will give your server a second IP address, which you will be able to access from any other device which is also registered to your Tailscale account.

My personal setup:

  • Tailscale installed on all devices that need access to my home lab
  • Custom domain with root A record set to server’s Tailscale IP
  • caddyserver reverse proxy on server, with DNS https authentication configured (regular http with won’t work because it’s not on the public internet)
  • services all on subdomains

Trump was forced to listen silently as potential jurors offered their unvarnished assessments of him (apnews.com)

New Yorkers who said they couldn’t approach the case fairly were excused during jury selection. But one of the women with the harshest assessments of him will be among those who will determine his fate on 34 counts of falsifying business records....

Cool thing about state level crimes is the president can’t pardon them.

How is chown-R someuser different from systemctl—user?

traches ,

Pacdiff does this on arch-based distros

Been using arch + sway + neovim for 5 years now. Everyone says it’s the “I spend more time fucking with configs than getting work done” setup but then why does my dotfiles repo look like this?

Neither do I, but it’s nice to have the same settings on my desktop and laptop

For me subnautica is in my top 5. The survival elements aren’t very important, it’s more of an exploration game.

Heathrow is the fucking worst, I hate it so much. No windows, not enough seating because they need the space to sell overpriced cosmetics and luxury watches. Fucking keep your gate a secret until 20 minutes before departure to make sure you don’t sneak off and miss a chance to do a capitalism

Read the article - some of the mines are deliberately near fossil fuel plants that had been tapering off production.

SQL is run on the server to communicate with a database. The screenshot is jsx, which is a front-end, UI templating language. Writing SQL this way is cursed

"Combokeys" instead of hotkeys. [Feature/new command suggestion]

Title. Basically, “if a street fighter gamer and a linux tryhard had a baby” where a combination of keys is issued to run a command/script rather than a single or a simultaneous stroke of two or more. i.e left, down, left, right arrow keys, R_CTRL to run Firefox. Right, right, Up, right arrow keys, delete to power off the...

Sway and I3 as well, without the warning

Payroll pretty much always costs more than hosting. Update frequency and quality is a far more useful consideration

Title text: If that doesn’t fix it, git.txt contains the phone number of a friend of mine who understands git. Just wait through a few minutes of ‘It’s really pretty simple, just think of branches as…’ and eventually you’ll learn the commands that will fix everything.

Depends heavily on your hardware, and you didn’t look very hard

Encryption has very little overhead; modern CPUs have hardware acceleration for all the common algorithms. What are you doing that’s so performance constrained you can’t tolerate even that?

traches ,

Typescript gives you better suggestions, red squiggles where you would get errors or bugs if you try to run it, more information about whatever it is you’re using that’s defined somewhere else, and some other neat stuff like project-wide renaming that works every time.

traches ,

Typescript got a lot easier for me when I stopped even trying to read the error messages

traches ,

Nothing is off limits, you can change everything

traches ,

no

This thread is amazing. My own fuckups:

  • Tried upgrading Ubuntu
  • Closed laptop while updating
  • I bork bootloaders with concerning regularity
  • While experimenting with writing a PKGBUILD for some personal scripts, ignored a warning having to do with a conflict on /bin. Blew away that symlink.

Idunno, Ruby was my first language and the other day I was trying to write a one-file script to wrangle some CSV data and even that got irritating. What does this function need? What does it return? Who the fuck knows! Is it even a function? Run it and find out, loser

And I’ve got reasonably popular projects in ruby, I’m not a beginner.

This is why linting and static typing are mandatory

You don’t see most of these errors in situations where screenshots are possible

The correct way to fix traffic is to stop designing the world around cars to the exclusion of absolutely everything the fuck else including humans.

All the time, the tip has to stay subsonic so they don’t spin that fast. 1021 RPM on an H-model herc for example.
