Glad it wasn’t just me that read it that way.
What if I like ellipses…
No. As a general rule with all software, you purchase a license to use the software, not the actual software itself. That being said, GOG and Itch.io can’t yank games that you’ve already downloaded. I don’t know if Steam does or not, but it probably can.
Here’s another plug for gitea. It’s lightweight, but still has a nice feature set.
I tried hosting GitLab a number of years back, but it was more resource hungry than my host machine could handle well.
Nothing new. Nothing recent. Just people being scared of something because they don’t know how it works or because it’s relatively new.
Major distros have started adopting it in recent years. It’s one of many ways for a distro to manage which services are running. Many of the others are essentially a hodgepodge of shell scripts.
systemd provides a lot of flexibility with service dependencies and logging, amount other things. It has a standard way to have user-scoped services. It’s standardizes filtering logs for specific services.
Yes. I’ve used it to batch convert PNG and jpg to webp.
Check out mogrify
. I think it’s installed standard with ImageMagick, and it does wildcard conversions.
Do you have a write-up or anything if someone wanted to start building their own?
For organizing and searching the files, I’m using paperless-ngx. It’s worked pretty well for these and for scanned documents.
My issue is getting the PDFs without having to spend time every month manually downloading them.
All solutions that integrate with banking sites I’ve ever encountered were nothing more but ugly hacks, IMHO.
Yup. That’s basically what FileThis provided. A maintained set of ugly hacks to pull the files for you automatically :D.
Sounds like a great design direction to me. I’m excited to see how it turns out.
Honestly, I figured it was one of those things people didn’t talk about because it was useless.
I assumed that was something everyone could do 🤯
Restic using resticprofile to configure and schedule backup runs.
A dot files repo for some basic config and an Ansible repo to stand everything up. This applies to both my Linux and MacOS machines.
All the people taking about their NixOS setups had me thinking of giving that a try, though.
Makita for battery-powered tools.
Whether they’re directly caused by an ADHD neurotype or not, all those things are associated with ADHD
To pick one at random, Rejection Sensitive Disphoria (RSD) is often found with people who have ADHD. People dealing with RSD often imagine rejection where none was intended. That includes reading negative feelings into text messages, conversations, etc.
(CAVEAT: I am not an expert. This is not my professional field. This is speculation from someone who has ADHD and is around ADHD kids) I don’t know if there’s good research out there or not about RSD+ ADHD, but I suspect RSD is conditioned. Growing up with ADHD, you get a lot of negative feedback from people. You aren’t paying attention well enough, you’re often clumsy, you often say the wrong things at the wrong time, etc. With enough of that sort of feedback, developing negative self talk which turns into full RSD sounds like a natural outcome.
