For the tap to pay I am now using my Garmin smartwatch. Still corporate, but not Google/Apple huge corporate. Very content with GOS otherwise. I blame app providers for their ridiculous limitations, not custom ROM developers.

Very cool! I am guessing you never got around to making the Kubernetes controller you mention in the README? :D

Supposedly creators get a bigger share from YT Premium users' compared to regular, ad-watching views, simply because skipped ads mean no revenue. It's still marginal because most people don't have Premium though.

I quite really like pdm! I can see why maybe poetry but especially pipenv might be replaced with uv, but what's the value of uv over pdm beyond performance? It ticks all my boxes otherwise.

Works fine for me on Firefox Linux. Interestingly took a lot longer to load in Chromium and Brave but they all work.

bsky still lacks basic security features like 2FA (beyond an email code) (andOAuth implementation), which puts me off from actively using it...

Thank you for introducing me to Terminal Trove. So many tools to try and experience, loving it!

The majority of configuration options in Windows Terminal are hidden in JSON. The GUI only exposes a fraction. They are doing work to expose more options in the GUI though. Having tried various alternatives for prolonged periods, it is curr

Or get an ODROID! Much more powerful for (nearly) the same price.

Instead of an error-prone SD card, use an SSD (internal, external doesn't matter). OR create frequent backups that are pushed to a better medium.

My previous HP Envy x360 had such a switch on the side of the laptop that would electronically disconnect the webcam; it would completely disconnect according to the system. Enabling it would show a new device being connected in `dmesg`. No

Cyberpunk != cyberpunk, unfortunately. Cyberpunk 2077 is set in the Cyberpunk RPG universe that was created by Mike Pondsmith in 1988. It was named after the vibe without changing the name... Also a helpful article: https://www.p

In my head 3.000,00 is correct and I always get confused because it seems most(?) people use the other method.

Blame the managers and product owners that don't think this is an issue, not the developers that likely raised it a million times already.

I've never used Flux, only Argo, but can you share a bit from your point of view on why you find Flux to be technically superior? Thanks!

I'm thinking you mean Ventoy? They say they can load vhd and img files, though I've only tried ISO's myself. https://www.ventoy.net/

12 Rules for Life was mostly good, it definitely helped me with some things. I liked his earlier podcasts on JRE and other shows. However, I couldn't get through Beyond Order at all; I had to drop it fairly early. I think I still like

Minecraft is still the shit and getting passed down to younger generations. If you go to the gaming category on YouTube while logged out and (optionally) connected through a VPN, you'll see these games are far from passé.

Some things can only be disabled on Windows Enterprise, not on Home or even Pro. For example for some aspects you need Group Policy, which isn't available in Home. The defaults might make sense from a usability perspective, but are pre
