  • It's cool that he vibe coded something for his specific needs but the lamenting of being unable to share it because of the fear of a backlash is a bit premature. I wonder how long he (and others like him) will be able to keep his project going when he eventually adds more features that introduce more bugs and the effort/cost of maintaining the project becomes too much. We've already seen that for the majority of people vibe coding stuff, the answer is relatively quickly.

    I've found interesting projects that have been vibe coded and seem to be well-maintained but I think vibe coded projects need at least 6 months to a year of history before they replace anything critical in my stack.

  • I'm definitely stage 3 but it's still an enjoyable hobby that isn't that time-consuming. I think stage 4 is creating your own services and spamming social media in search of users.

  • Scott Jenson — How the (Linux) Desktop UX Needs to Evolve to Keep Up with Local-First

    Jump

  • Got around to watching the video. It's not something that can be easily summarized as everything he's talking about is very visual and needs to be seen to be understood.

    Got a lot of niri vibes when he was talking about the desktop stuff.

  • From notegpt:

    The speaker shares early prototype ideas to illustrate possibilities:

    • Ultra-wide Monitor Window Management:
      • Reduce cursor travel by repositioning menu bars closer to workspaces.
      • Add a background pattern causing a perspective warp, improving visual ergonomics.
      • Blend temporary window overview (Exposé) with persistent window management.
      • Enable windows to be parked off to the sides and dynamically resized or reformatted (small interactive buttons).
      • Reduce reliance on virtual desktops for moderately organized multitasking.
    • Clipboard-as-File Cache:
      • Convert clipboard history into an editable, persistent file cache associated with documents.
      • Enables dragging text snippets or web content to a "side panel" for later retrieval, improving work-in-progress management.
      • Combines features of clipboard managers, file managers, and window management.
    • Local AI Context Integration:
      • Leverage local document context (similar to Claude Code’s AI using file systems) to group and suggest actions on related content (e.g., mapping multiple hotel references).
      • This creates a playground for local AI to assist without ignoring desktop UX.
    • Privacy-Conscious Telemetry:
      • Collect weak signals (time on page, scrolling, clipboard events) to identify important browser history items without invasive data collection.
      • Compress and visualize history as an interactive timeline summarizing user activity flow, aiding memory and navigation.

    These prototypes emphasize user control, privacy, and organic integration, avoiding high-complexity or opaque AI.`

  • Daily Invidious Restarts

    Jump

  • I'd be surprised if most people running invidious for private use are following that advice. I've been on the master branch for a while and it gets updated fairly often. For my instance, I haven't seen any reason to restart the service more often.

  • It is and I thought it would be abandoned like most other AI slop but it the dev has been pretty active since I first became aware of it.

  • Lenovo Warns PC RAM Prices Will "Never" Go Back to Normal

  • They're basically saying the AI companies are going to keep demand elevated to the point that supply will never catch up. It's possible but with variables like public backlash, unrealistic power requirements, eventual financial and AI regulation, I would bet on a painful collapse.

  • Getting started with NextCloud?

    Jump

  • Can you elaborate on what you didn't like about what you've seen so far? I imagine most guides advise you to spin up an AIO instance of nextcloud in docker.

  • Arch Linux AUR Hit By Another Wave Of Now More Sophisticated Malware Attack

    Jump

  • It seems like a continuation from the DDOS attacks that still happen from time to time. If I was going down the conspiracy rabbit hole, I'd think some group is trying to keep linux in the press with bad/scary news to drive away growing interest and arch seems like the easiest target atm.

  • How do you manage you DB in a docker environment?

    Jump

  • Start a new thread with your compose file (minus the sensitive stuff). I'd be happy to take a look and I'm sure others will step in as well.

  • I've been looking for something like calino for a while. I know it's vibe coded and likely to be abandoned but it fits the need for something quick and simple for now. I don't know why thunderbird's calendar workflow irks me but it does.

  • I've learned to start looking at alternatives as soon as I get a whiff of venture capital near anything I rely on. I hope I'm wrong but this is probably just the start of the downfall of bitwarden.

    I'm on vaultwarden for now and keeping an eye on aliasvault and passbolt.

  • I'm counting down the days until they revoke all existing lifetime passes. With this change and the recent bitwarden price increases, we're definitely in the era of being squeezed for every dime from all sides.

    Like many others, I bought the lifetime plex pass when it was relatively cheap but switched to jellyfin for personal use years ago. I keep plex running for family members but that'll stop as soon as the lifetime pass goes away.
