the majority of grandparents could not afford the "left one".
Almost all of us could afford the "ikea like" ones a great point is, I do not need to leave it to my childrens because they will afford furniture they will like.
They (I hope) will not depend on stuff I will leve them.
Even today you can buy homemade luxury stuff you can live for your children.

Date format I remeber by heart as I'm using it several times monthly.
Yes, for exif params, I need to read manpages.
I am also using venice.ai more and more.
But still have some block when ChatGPT tried to help me with tuning of tomcat server by reasonably looking parameters that did not work. Reading documentation has shown that such parameters do not exist at all.
Or anything complicated in "ansible" (I do not know already) is almost impossible to get from AI. In such complicated cases the sourceforge.net is still more helpful.
Therefore if I can get something from manpage in 2 minutes longer than with the help of ai, I still prefer manpage.
But yes, there are cases when venice.ai saved me more time.
But I still evaluate situations - is the saving of 5 minutes of my time worth to become more lazy and dumb? I am still somehow proud of myself to use brain on daily basis.

Surprised. Do you really need help of AI to code in shell? With all your it history background?
My life is ruined. :)

Waiting for the possibility to manage nostr relays list. (with configuring whether I want to read "public" for each of them)

Will pip/pip3 install as non-root uid library to system directory? Really?
What is the difference to download any piece of sw directly from github as non-root user?

Will you accept surgery where doctors and nurses are not wearing any masks?
As I have written already. It's not about passing viruses through mask. It's about airflow of MY breath/sneezing/coughing. No rocket science.

The primary purpose of the mask is not to protect yourself against viruses spread by others.
But to prevent to spread your viruses to long distances (specially when you sneeze or cough) and therefore protect others.
There is a reason why doctors and nurses wear masks during surgery…

No, no. As ordinary homeowner you usually cannot get spot prices. But they could be used as financial background in case of "virtual battery".
Not always, just to be not "surprised".

"Sending power to the grid and then consume it later" is sometimes tricky.
Depends on the contract - devil could be in "small letter's paragraphs".
Many times you sell power for low price (it's a sunshine, spot price is low) and buy it expensive afterwards (it's a winter).
Just small note, that the cost savings are not always as expected ones.

IMHO, bigger trouble would be disk capacity than network limit (speed/capacity). VPS usualy don't have big disks.
Or do you mean to run it at home? Tor-based relay?

Returning back to pidgin.
Besides nicer pidgin's GUI that is just matter of personal preferences, I really don't like on gajim (1.1.3 @ Ubuntu 20.04.6 lts):
- no automatic join to chat rooms after connection to server
- advanced option "tabs_position" is ignored or is doing something else I would expect from the name
- incomming messages don't raise chat windows automatically. Missed few important messages
- during logoff I am getting warning that there are some unread mesages but I have no clue who written them (see previous point)
Gajim is now on my list "let's try it again in few years".

Can some alternate launcher be used in GrapheneOS or it will not work due to its security features?

Nor vpn, nor tor, nor airplane mode solves my use case when I just don't waste my limited mobile data by apps that can "wait" until I'm on wifi.

I would like to have Pixel+GrapheneOS as my new phone but everything I'm capable to find about "firewall per app" is just simple switch network/no-network (probably via kernel capabilities) then to ability filter network acces per app of style "no network / wifi only / wifi+mobile data". Some of them are even able to recognise and filter mobile data when on roaming.
But by my investigation, GrapheneOS can't do it.
What "firerall per app" on GrapheneOS do you mind in your comment?
Thanks.

We had open discussion with our small one since she started to ask. No bees, no flowers. Other children in the kindergarden are "problem of somebody else".

Almost all desktop apps are newer version from flatpak than from repos of my latest Debian.
I understand. For coder is much easier to test one version than all available distros.
And for maintainers the same. Too much apps to test.
Flatpak/AppImage/snap creates mess in system (oh, snap!) but for user it's a way to have good working environment.
Don't hesitate to use it.

Plebstr, Amethyst, Iris - all of them are always completely empty and are downloading messages after every opening.
Is it a nostr design? No "local first" storage?

2023-06-20 17:29:21

Sometimes Amethyst starts to download some zip file.
Any idea what it is?
