If all of the below doesnt work out, you can host git by itself. I did that at an office once.

https://gist.github.com/Kreijstal/28fc987270b71849505bbc89b3f2d90a steps look correct.

But for me forgejo worked out well for my side projects and mirroring.

They are free to do what they want to on their repo.

We are free to fork if need arises.

Personally I don’t like projects not showing what AI has made. And most of Claude was made on stolen code. Its against the open source license they themselves use https://github.com/lutris/lutris/blob/master/LICENSE

But almost no one actually enforces the license until the big companies show up. I hope they change their minds, but until then, im going to stop using/contributing for a while.

It helps! Ive seen it with two jobs completely change the culture around code review.

• Instead of you/team lead being the bad guy, its now the code/process.
• Code becomes more stable and releases actually become more frequent.
• If something goes wrong, your VM/docker/box/etc… can just be re-spun up by the same process.
• Easier to onboard since the same build process is in the CI. And is constantly being used rather than relying on the README (that may not have been updated in a while).

Mind you its not perfect of course. You can still “Vibe” test and/or remove tests that dont work. And make the project more brittle. Or go overboard with lint rules (I actually had to break up a fight with that one). But its much better than the old process of merge and pray.

Make ci/cd part of the process. It stops a lot of people who push huge unmaintanable changes.

If it doesent pass the tests and cant build then it stops them from merging.

It would be fun to create a CURL converter. Just simple aliases or conversion tool.

I just looked it up, looks like there may be something like it here: https://github.com/christianhelle/curlgenerator

I like the look of this: https://www.createopenapi.com/

I had a terracube. It litterally broke apart in my hands. The glue for the screen stopped working. And i tried to get it repaired only to be told they didnt support the first phone anymore. After less than two years.

I now have a fairphone 4. Much better device!

Ive always thought having options was a good thing.

How interesting! Very nice visualization.

https://piefed.social/topics is fun to look through.

Yeah I agree with the article, people will just say “Do not use in California” then…F off. OSes are VERY different all over the place.

I dont see this as enforceable. Linux in itself is multi-user. Everyone is just going to put some bogus year for age and continue on. I also dont see websites caving and adding it all in because that would cost a metric ton and be inconvenient for everyone involved. What about server OSes? OSes that have a machine as the only user. Or embedded devices?

It also does NOT protect Children in any way.

lol woops. Well thats how you know AI didnt write my stuff, spelling errors. ill keep it.

My computer loads up in 5 sec or less. And power bills are too much to be running all the time. Even sleep with devices plugged in takes power.

I shut it down when I am not suing it. Every time.

At work, we have been using windows since I started. Last year, because of the cloud strike issues, our systems ALL went down at the same time. Even our backups did.

But our experimental Linux systems did not. And for a little while they were the only thing that worked.

Since then windows 11 has rubbed management the wrong way with the latest shutdown bug crippling a couple of servers…again.

So we got the ok to start using Linux for all new products. And management is starting to warm up to using laptops/desktops that are not windows. They are looking into Macs or Linux devices for the first time ever. So it makes sense if other entities are thinking the same thing.

Plus most programs are just web apps nowadays, at least where I work at.

I usr it every day its great.

Thats the idea! You just have to get them off the store and download them somehow.

Calibre is what I would take a look at. There is a web version that has a couple of different setups. for docker this looks interesting:

https://github.com/linuxserver/docker-calibre-web

Ive also used yunohost (mostly for ease of use and backups) here: https://apps.yunohost.org/app/calibreweb

Its basically the same thing either way.

am I right in understanding that I can host my library of ebooks on my home server then point a client at that server so I have access to my full library without having to save the books locally on device?

Some do this and some dont. I personally find ebooks to be so small that it doesnt matter, but some people use the server client to keep track of where they were at on certain books, helpwith their large collection, share with others of the family, etc…etc… And I think books with pictures such as manga, magazines, or other such take up more room so it might make sense if you have a lot of those.

I personally like having the system auto-update my device with new books and convert into nice to read formats for my custom devices. It works out really well.

Both are great. NeoVim is better /s

I miss ipconfig. I had to make an alias just for it that I load up on new machines because its part of the muscle memory.

calibre is pretty great. I also have a kobo and its the reason I can load/convert a lot of what I read.
