  • What's your entirely unimportant and inconsequential hot take?

  • American cheese is “real” cheese, and it’s called a “process cheese,” not “processed cheese,” because process cheese is a culinary term for a cheese made from a mixture of cheeses. Also it melts so good because of a perfectly safe food additive called sodium citrate which just prevents the fat from separating.

  • There’s plenty of good stuff made by decent people out there, I’m fine with dropping someone awful. I also like to think it helps me avoid picking up bad behaviors or internalizing shitty ideas.

  • Whats a good hobby to get into, as someones whos home alot with a laptop?

    Jump

  • I like to program as a hobby (though I also do it as a professional, so I get a lot of paid time to learn this stuff too) and so much stuff is just freely available online. Tutorials, documentation, tools, whatever, mostly open-source which means free to use and play with as you please.

    You can make web pages with nothing but a text editor and any one of a million guides on web programming. Just put HTML code in a text file and open it in your browser, and bam you’ve got a web page. You can gradually learn stuff like CSS and JavaScript to make them look neat and do cool stuff. Then you can use GitHub Pages to deploy your pages to the internet for other people to see and use. Or learn a programming language like Python to build a web server that serves up that HTML you learned. You don’t need a beefy machine at all to write code.

  • Question: Is there a Self Hosted Discord like app?

    Jump

  • I’m running Prosody and it was easy to set up and the docs are good.

  • Matrix is an option but it’s slow and breaks all the time. I’m a big fan of XMPP myself but good luck convincing anyone else to make an account 😔

  • What is it about technology that fascinates you?

    Jump

  • Computers are just modern clockwork made with silicon and electricity instead of brass and we’ve used them to build a global network where people and machines can communicate near-instantly and automate so much work. We tricked the rocks into thinking and I think that’s incredible.

  • Anybody out there self hosting Searxing?

    Jump

  • I host it as a docker container and the maintenance has been painless

  • what do y'all use for CI/CD?

  • Apparently Homebox allows setting third-party label rendering endpoint through an HBOX_LABEL_MAKER_LABEL_SERVICE_URL env var

  • Homebox is great, I bought a usb label maker specifically for it

  • Using Vim is Amazing

    Jump

  • There are always more cool tricks and great plugins out there, have fun!

    Also I’d recommend Neovim, it’s exactly like vim except it supports Lua scripting, so there are lots of powerful plugins that aren’t available on vanilla vim.

  • btrfs offsite backup

    Jump

  • I’m not familiar with btrbk specifically, but my backups all send a ping to https://healthchecks.io/ when they start and when they finish. healthchecks.io works by getting a simple curl request, similar to ntfy, but if that request doesn’t happen after a certain amount of time (or if you do a start request and a succeed/fail request and the job is taking too long) then it will notify you. It can use ntfy for notifications, but it can also send emails or use any of a number other services.

  • What the most memorable moment from any video game?

    Jump

  • Assassin’s Creed 2:

    “It’s-a me, Mario!”

  • I must have died and gone to heaven [nushell]

    Jump

  • They kinda have to replace some coreutils like find from scratch to be compatible with their philosophy of piping data tables instead of text. It’s super cool and ends up being really powerful but yeah it’s a whole new ecosystem which makes it pretty much impossible to be a drop-in shell replacement.

  • I must have died and gone to heaven [nushell]

    Jump

  • Nushell is so cool! I’m happy it’s still progressing; I was worried it would die out because it’s such a leap from existing shells that they kinda need to develop an ecosystem from scratch. Piping actual data tables between commands is brilliant. I’ve tried using it as a daily driver but it takes some work to convert existing dot files and scripts. I might try it again.

  • New repos, high hopes, every time

    Good group to post this?

  • When Trump logs into his Lemmy account he’s going to be so owned.

  • Just a reminder that Codeberg exists, is completely free and open source, and has a GitHub import feature.
