Well, we just spun up anubis in front of a two user private (as in publicly accessible but with almost all content set to private/login protected) forgejo instance after it started getting hammered (mostly by amazon ips presenting as a

"Perfection is the enemy of good" also applies here, imho. If you need one specific machine and cannot work without it, well I guess there's not much more you can do than the nail polish trick. But if you "just" nee

Having played and completed (though not 100%'ed) both, I did like HZD's story more - though Zelda has never been known for the stories - but disliked/hated everything else, to the point of going from somewhat hyped for the se

Death Stranding on the PS4 is the last time I remember being truly immersed in the world the game is presenting - in a non-Nintendo game. The first time you go out of the city, the world just opens up to you and the soundtrack just gets mor

I have a very basic "content repository" that started out as an RSS reader and now has pocket/instapaper like link saving, notetaking and basic GPT integrations (summary for rss entries/saved links + chatgpt like interfa

Everything is relative. I'm in IT - in fact in a decently high paying and relevant part of it, being a devops specialist - in the West (in Italy) and I make ~1700 euros a month, and this is with 10 years of experience in the sector. I&

Actual pros are just doing it for free with the same setup but added Prowlarr/Jackett and private trackers, so it's all free without having to pay for usenet. The issue then becomes getting access to the tracker, but it's not

In Italy, where I (and many other posters on HN) live, a self-employing carpenter makes _much_ more than a software developer, at least at "normal" salaries for the country. For reference, I've used Sublime Text for many, man

Officially, the cartridges stopped production around the same date the digital version was "taken down". It just sold exactly as poorly as every other retrogaming/nostalgia cash grab remake, and I say that as someone that bou

Same with Emacs + CIDER for Clojure instead of Common Lisp. Fully remote project setup on powerful server, accessed from local Emacs with TRAMP mode. CIDER commands (REPL included) work over the remote connection perfectly fine and run on t

I'll be reading Domain Modeling Made Functional [1], which seems fun as it applies F#/ML/FP concepts to "enterprisey" DDD. [1] https://isthisit.nz/posts/2019/domain-modeling-made-function..

Got any specs on those Atoms? A passively cooled homelab build sounds pretty interesting...

Besides, I don't get the whole "can't do geek things on an iPad". I have an iPad Pro 2017 and I've: - Run full linux on it (both emulated X86 and via WASM magic, via A-Shell and iSH, both on the App Store) - Coded P

This makes sense to me, looking for stability both in usage and in configuration. Emacs has been that for me, but I do use it for nearly everything for a very extensive configuration. As I understand it the idea is to look for the familiari

This sounds similar to what I do with Emacs, having it fullscreen with a code buffer mostly full window with occasional split columns on the right for terminals, magit etc - also controlled by keyboard, obviously. Though I see how having a

I never really understood TWMs. They look incredibly pretty after heavy configuration, and I get the appeal of that, but for daily use my workflow - on two 27' 4k monitor - is to keep a window maximized on each and alt-tab through them

Of course there is! The GPD family of Windows devices (Win/Win2/Win Max and Pocket/Pocket 2/Pocket2 Max) have pretty good hardware and somewhat decent linux support (they all have official Ubuntu Mate images), and the GP

It's extremely easy to set up the entire stack (Sonarr for TV, Radarr for movies, Lidarr for music, Transmission (or Deluge, or Rtorrent) and Jackett for torrent handling, Plex (or Emby, or Jellyfin) in a docker-compose using the Linux

Powershell kinda does this, but people are still debating if it's a good thing or not. (personally, I think it is, and helps give structure to the sometimes too "dynamic" world that is shell scripting)

WoW works perfectly on linux with Proton, and installing it is as easy as getting Lutris and double clicking on WoW's icon. WoW classic also works perfectly, if that's your thing.

Might be a Blizzard thing, I remember the original WoW box (the 5 CDs version) came with a small-book sized manual (200 pages or so, IIRC) with lore and explanations for the various classes, races, skills. The battle chests (base game + exp

Funny enough, the first landing (Orbcomm OG2 Launch 2, December 2015) was at night (well, 8:30 PM in december, close enough)!

He's talking about friday's landing that came down very hard and used up pretty much all the emergency crush core in the legs, because it came down on the side of the ship, then overcorrected to the other side, then corrected agai

Thanks! Will definitely read this. I got fooled by Signal's requirement of a phone for the activation and thought it was also required for normal usage, I guess that's better than Whatsapp, though being able to register and use it

Signal does have sync, but it works exactly the same way as Whatsapp's does, requiring your phone to be on and connected Telegram's secret chats are also client-specific and not synced, and I have no idea how it would even be poss
