If you’ve got access to a microwave, I’ve found rice dishes quite convenient, like for example a lentil curry. They generally re-heat without tasting worse and the rice traps the moisture, so even if your container isn’t 100% sealed, you’re unlikely to get mess everywhere.
(Though I’d still recommend getting a properly sealed container. Personally, I also transport my food in a separate cloth bag, so that if it should ever leak, I can just wash that bag.)
Everything I implement at work is open source because I don’t want to wait for a purchase approval.
Just to say, though, I feel like 99% of the software we deploy is open-source for that exact reason. Projects generally start out small, where you try to evaluate some concept. You’re not gonna spend months to go through the purchase process of some proprietary tool, if you can help it…
Yeah, if the fascists want to lock you up, they’ll declare you a terrorist. You need to make sure that the non-fascists know this is not true.
Well, even before those, there were machines which wouldn’t spin the can. It would just conveyor-belt it under the sensor, not find a barcode and then conveyor-belt it back out, until you turned it the right way around…
Well, this version is going to be in the Ubuntu repos eventually, but might take a while. Ubuntu 26.04 is already in feature-freeze, so it’ll be in 26.10 at the earliest (or 28.04, if you follow the LTS releases).
I guess, it would probably also show up in the “backports” repo before that, if you enable that, but might be easiest to use the Flatpak or AppImage instead…
These machines used to require you to put the barcode into the right position. Maybe they’re still used to those machines and therefore look for the barcode on each container?
Obsidian is not open-source…
I just saw this on F-Droid, will need to test it, but sounds like it could be really good: https://f-droid.org/packages/lu.knaff.alain.saf_sftp
I’m hoping, it works like mounting or FUSE on proper Linux, where you can just use normal applications to transparently access network files. Then you’d be able to use any old file manager app to actually work with the files…
You probably just misread, but just to note that SFTP is different from SMB. They’re similar in purpose, but basically competing protocols…
Yeah, I was gonna specifically pick out biology. Feels like the more you know about it, the cooler it gets to just head outside and look at critters. Kind of like Pokémon, but real.
Most developers I’ve looked at would happily just paste the curl|bash thing into the terminal.
I mean, I typically see it used for installing applications, and so long as TLS is used for the download, I’m still not aware of a good reason why you should check the Bash script in particular in that case, since the application itself could just as well be malware.
Of course, it’s better to check the Bash script than to not check it, but at that point we should also advise to download the source code for the application, review it and then compile it yourself.
At some point, you just have to bite the bullet and I have not yet seen a good argument why the Bash script deserves special treatment here…
Having said that, for cases where you’re not installing an application, yeah, reviewing the script allows you to use it, without having to trust the source to the same degree as you do for installing an application.
Firefox Sync is end-to-end-encrypted. Mozilla cannot see your synced data.
Either way, I have no idea how this is supposed to happen without you entering your credentials into Firefox at some point. Even if Mozilla wanted to be sus, they couldn’t just guess which account is yours.
Are you using Firefox Sync with the same e-mail address? I believe, that all gets put into the same account system.
They cause a huge amount of load, deteriorating the service for everyone else. I’m also guessing the time ranges in the graph, where there’s no data, is when OP’s server crashed from the load and had to restart.
That kind of shit can easily trigger alerting and will look like a DDoS attack. I would be pissed, too, if I dropped everything to see why my server is going down and it’s not even proper criminals, but rather just some silicon valley cunts.
My best guess is that they don’t just index things, but rather download straight from the internet when they need fresh training data. They can’t really cache the whole internet after all…
Can’t easily test this, but it might be possible to set the game itself to “Full Screen (Windowed)” and then tell Plasma to fullscreen the window. You can try this by launching the game and then pressing Alt+F3 to bring up the window menu. In there, you can fullscreen it through Plasma. You can also set a keyboard shortcut for this (I use Meta+F11).
Was queuing at the checkout in the grocery store today and realized I wasn’t going to be done putting my foods onto the conveyor belt by the time the cashier would be done with the previous customer. Then a guy comes in to queue behind me and in the corner of my eye, I could tell that he only had three items or so. So, I turn to him and tell him that he can skip ahead of me.
At that point, I see that it’s a bouquet of flowers and a greeting card that he’s holding. He looked a bit embarassed, but then also somewhat touched, because he wasn’t sure, if I was being nice, because he’s carrying his emotions out in the open.
I wasn’t. 😅 I mainly just did not want to cause unnecessary delay. But was an unexpectedly wholesome encounter anyways.
I’m of the opinion that one should recommend distros that you’re familiar with, and ideally use yourself. Because they will have questions and particularly, if you actively use it yourself, you’ll also be able to test whether stuff normally works, which is broken on their machine.
For those unfamiliar with music production: VSTs are basically plugins you can use in music production software (more specifically in “Digital Audio Workstation” software, DAW).
Except they’re also not really plugins, because they’re actually full-fledged programs, into which an audio stream is fed and then they run arbitrary code to ransom your files transform that audio stream. Well, and typically also to display a UI with knobs to control how the effect should sound like. Those pictures on that webpage are screenshots of their UI.
As a result, most VSTs are basically just bundled EXE files. You can often run them through WINE, but many people use dozens of these VSTs and may even pay money for them, so you really don’t want to have to worry about them not working under Linux.
Yeah, I can understand the frustration when an external decision forces you to disappoint some of your users, but ultimately you have to pick your battles. When neither the Python nor Rust ecosystem thinks those platforms are worth supporting, it’s probably not either worth it for you to worry…
