Yeah unfortunately this seems to be something very few outside of bug tech dedicate resources to. Even for them it seems to be an afterthought, at least in my professional experience. It winds up another compliance checkbox just like securi

This has gotten much better fairly recently ime. My backups to WebDAV work most of the time and when it fails I get notifications. But it was quite bad for a long time so I sympathize with your point

It's very configurable and extensible. As some have mentioned, the interface can be a bit confusing at times but once you're used to it it's mostly out of your way. I like that I can run it on both my Kobo and android phone a

I agree, I truly love logseq as it fits the way my brain works in a way the few other tools seem to be able to replicate. Unfortunately my notes being in plain text is a non-negotiable for me. This will probably be the push I need to transi

Honestly this shouldn't be limited to traditional computing devices. Why do I need some hacker to reverse engineer my robot vacuum and then fully disassemble it just to install custom firmware to it? Should be a basic requirement of ri

This is tricky since it can and will ignore your md directions. When possible I try to lean on tool call hooks or skills that invoke deterministic scripts. As much as you can remove the "choice" the better though still there'

Yup, been using it on an older roborock s5 for several years now. It's excellent and works flawlessly with home assistant. Cannot recommend enough. The robot running its own webserver while it cleans my apartment is still so funny to m

I'm surprised no one is talking about the fact that the headset is ARM and that valve has been heavily contributing to the translation layer FEX. I love my steam deck, but lately find myself reaching for emulation handhelds like the Re

I’d try both, they tend to target different use cases. Proxmox doesn’t come with a lot of the tooling for things like SMB, LDAP, etc that Truenas ships with but you may find you don’t actually want any of these extras. In that case Proxmox

IMO NAS setup is much more straightforward on truenas. It’s doable in Proxmox inside a VM or LXC, but true as exposes this all directly via a nice UI. I personally use Proxmox with a simple Debian NFS VM, but for less technical users that j

Prime video has always been extremely buggy in my experience. It’s baffling that a product backed by someone as big as Amazon and part of their core prime offering can be so difficult to use. Then again Netflix has been getting much less us

Also worth noting that editing recommendations are a part of the M365 office suite. I agree with those voicing concern as AI is very new still and can have huge implications at FAANG scale, but I’m not surprised to see Google at this.

The worst thing for me is slow docker performance. Not usually an issue on my work MacBook since I tend to do stuff on remote build servers, but it can be really annoying to spin up projects on MacOS without polluting your OS with all the d

Just wanted to give praise to the ngrok team. Solves a real hurdle for corporate developers and has been working great for our team.

I think the reality is that most companies don’t have the skill set needed to maintain on-prem infra. A lot of us here take this kind of knowledge for granted, but most businesses don’t have the time or resources to build some of this stuff

Ngrok is indeed nice for this. I’ve found that Firefox dev tools can replay requests out of the box which is pretty handy.

I would say this isn’t necessarily unusual for NK. As far as I know, they’re the only nation state actor known to hack for profit and they’ve committed several of the largest cyber bank robberies ever. Nation state actors have an _incredibl

Yeah I just mute the tabs and set video speed to as fast as it’ll let me. Ours has little quiz sections but you pretty much always get infinite tries and it doesn’t take a genius to guess the answers.

This is something I’ve battled with personally quite a bit. In my current role I’m sure I don’t do the world harm, but I’d like to provide more benefit. I’ve dabbled with contributing to open source as well as volunteering my time as a deve

Have you shared this accessibility feedback with the gnome team directly? There’s been a huge push in recent years to make software more accessible and it’s very likely these frustrations are the result of ignorance more than malice on the

I fully agree, open source is incredibly underutilized. When it works well it can be extremely powerful. Take for instance the recent flipper zero kickstarter/product. It’s finally shopping and even though it’s very incomplete there’s

I work for a large cloud provider and it’s even worse than you imagine because this same thing has happened to us. I don’t work on cloud, but we use cloud internally for our other products and devs on those teams are expected to manage all

My weight fluctuates a lot ( especially if I find myself consuming more alcohol) but I have a system that’s always worked for me when I want to drop weight 1. Only black coffee for breakfast. Maybe a banana or granola bar if you really need

I do the same by having my resume in latex which I’ve checked in to git. Been meaning to write a GH action to generate the pdf artifact automatically.

In Firefox dev tools you can replay and modify requests which isn’t something I’ve found in chromium browsers.

Helm charts are roughly the k8s equivalent of docker compose. Might be a few years before they’re as widespread but a lot of common things you’d want to host are largely “solved” already.

Not OP but you find a lot of these kinds of setups on Reddit. Check out /r/homelab if you’re interested. Even crazier is /r/homedatacenter where you’ll find dudes with full tape libraries and everything. Super interestin
