  • A: It's not my blog

    B: The author's point was that Flatpak solves a lot of pain points for developers on Linux with distribution that Appimage doesn't, and package managers certainly don't, and that if there's going to be companies like Valve and Redhat that are going all-in on that method, it would benefit the Linux ecosystem that's currently driving away developers in droves with fragmentation to consider that.

    Personally I like Appimage for just being able to grab a file and run it, and I integrate Gear Lever updates by building my own repackaging infra to keep projects that use it updating via Gear Lever's Update All button. But I can completely commiserate with the idea that it isn't very useful for most users to have to come up with things like that themselves when Flatpak is easily integrated with Discover and other packagekit software updaters.

  • Memory bus speed of the Spark is poor and that's a huge detriment.

  • Stop, I can only get so erect.

  • TL/dr: they hated using it but it made a better product than they could have done themselves, more quickly.

  • They've burned a century of soft power and international goodwill in 18 months.

  • Honestly, the NC AIO is the same. I don't think you even need to change any of the environment options in the compose.

    But glad you found something that works for you.

  • That's basically OnlyOffice with file storage. I'm not sure how that trumps Nextcloud

  • Ah, the "Colt 45" close.

  • That's the standard weight for oats, but generally it actually runs 40 to 46 lbs/bu. The standard weight was built a long time ago before much of the modern seed varieties had been bred.

    That said, you're right, it's still a lot lighter to shovel than something like wheat, and glorious compared to faba beans which is like shovelling gravel.

    And you're right about the slickness, oats are almost a pleasure to shovel. But the dust is really irritating to the skin, at least to most people. It can be rough to deal with at harvest time.

  • I mean, the name made me think it was an April fool's joke, but the demo looks remarkably usable.

  • Oh, most of it picked up with the loader bucket, but we did have to shovel out from too close to the bin to run the loader, and scrape around to get the rest without adding in gravel.

  • "Then you'd better catch it..."

    Well, as far as mistakes go, this one was pretty minor, but I figured townies might find it funny. My expensive mistakes would be hard to capture in pictures, or they'd just make me cry.

    Otherwise, we just aim for mistakes that don't kill us.

  • Mostly oats, some rye in it right now. We'd usually mix in barley but we have a bunch of rye since we started growing cover crops and the distillers around only take so much. So it goes in cows.

  • See general reply in post.

  • That auger in the picture is what we use to put grain on the feed truck, but what went wrong was the auger that goes to the top of that bin from the mill just kept pumping the grain out the top when the bin was full and it fell off the top of the bin into those piles. About 4 tons or so.

  • So there's an auger that goes up to the top of that hopper bin in the foreground and drops the milled grain in the bin. The actual mill is off to the left and out of the picture.

    Left the mill running, got distracted, the bin filled up but there's no sensor to shut it off (yet) so it just kept pumping grain out and it all slid off the top of the bin and spilled on the ground. That was probably about 4 tons of oats on the ground.

    There was a shovel party to clean it up.
