I saw someone recommend a site called "The Storygraph" recently - haven't tried it yet, but it seems like an interesting alternative to Goodreads. In particular the "moods" feature caught my eye.

I was amazed to discover, a few months ago, that iPeng is still under active development! I went to set the alarm on my Squeezebox Boom one night and the time picker widget was completely broken. By the next week they'd pushed out an u

If you can find the .ipa, you can sideload them, no developer account or anything needed. The downsides are that you can only have 3 sideloaded apps at a time, and you have to reinstall them every 7 days. https://sideloadly.io&#x

Systemd has a mechanism[0] for configuring those limits. I believe you can limit a unit to 1 vCPU and 256MB of memory by using something like the following: [Service] CPUQuota=100% # 100% of a core MemoryLimit=256MB Red Hat has some documen

Same here - it's a shame because I'm happy to continue supporting the developer, but I won't pay for a functional downgrade.

You make a good point - there are loads of third-party magnetic charging cables out there, but I never saw the point when I have a wireless charger. I might have to give the cables a try next time I replace my battery, see how it affects lo

I recently came across another useful utility for debugging unexpected packet drops - PWRU[0] (Packet, Where Are You) by Cilium. It uses eBPF to try to trace the path of the packet through the kernel. Haven't needed to use it yet, but

The thing that bothers me is that it's not even restricted to iDevices. I was recently looking into replacing Time Machine on my MBP (which has a tendency to corrupt over SMB) with APFS snapshots, synced to ZFS snapshots on my NAS. Unf

The key word that covers the Heroku-style experience is "GitOps". Most tools are Kubernetes-centric (i.e. FluxCD[0] or Jenkins X[1]), but there are some simpler Docker-only options as well such as Dokku[2]. [0]: https:/&#x2F

While I don't think it's likely, it's not hard to conceive a scenario where the NIC purposely weakens the security for attackers in the know. Purely theoretical (and I'm not a crypto guy, so please do correct me if this
