I've already run it for more than a decade, it's not going anywhere :) The project is also open-source, and the daily SFTP log exports can be imported into another instance. I hate lock-in. Ultimately, it uses an irrelevant % of r

I've just started adding logs to notifico (ex: https://n.tkte.ch/c/1/2023-07-28 ), which is very barebones. Don't get much time to work on it, but I'm working on implementing search in a cost-effecti

Photoprism had the critical flaw of being single user last time I tried it, making it neat but a complete non starter for someone with a family larger than 1.

There are many, many IRC networks that are still very active with tens of thousands of active users. Libera.chat is probably the best one I can suggest at the moment for a wide selection of topics. Politics, news, every tech group and subje

You just described the ActivityPub universe. There are quite a few servers that are minimal ux or api only, and there are a ton of clients that allow you to use multiple servers on whatever platform you want, with mobile, desktop, and web c

Not even old modems, AT is still used everywhere. Just about every modem I've bought off Sparkfun uses AT.

California does this all the time, and this actually works for California because, well, they matter. Businesses want access to their market. Utah has less people than my city, and produces 0.9% of the national GDP. Anyone attempting to do

As a counterpoint to this, I've had the KDE DE running for myself (8+ hours a day), my wife, and my grandparents, running on arch for more than 3 years. We've encountered no serious or really even minor bugs in that time. My only

Its magic function wrapping comes at a cost, trading ease of use for runtime performance. When you have a single C++ function to call that will run for a "long" time, pybind all the way. But pysimdjson tends to call a single funct

Pybind11 has significant overhead that makes it non-viable for some projects, even if it has a nice API. For pysimdjson we switched back to cython for an order of magnitude improvement.

From a business sense, it would likely be a reasonable and profitable acquisition for both parties. From a personal standpoint, I would like to see Cloudflare (among others) smashed into a neutral backbone provider and all its product offer

Not the person you're replying to, but those drivers are essentially just the communication bridge between the kernel and the "real" driver, which is mostly in the closed-source firmware blob. They're also woefully incom

You are 100% correct. Boy that's confusing. I thought they'd just gotten a new site!

Keep in mind that ntfy works with a bunch of backends. You can send the notifications to Telegram, jabber/XMPP, IRC (using my own https://n.tkte.ch ), Slack, etc, etc. So, you probably don't have to actually install any

My understanding is that the entire suite of colors is calibrated by material, among other things. #aabbcc on the screen does not look like #aabbcc when painted onto wood, or from plastic injection moulding. But Pantone Color #32 will be ab

Intel contributed support which is in kernel versions 3.18 and up. Low priority tasks like the Baloo file indexer in KDE will always try to run on an E core. You can also manually pin to cores in Linux and some platforms support manual mana

That's how long the drive has been powered up, not the CPU. It sleeps pretty aggressively, and why not, no disk to spin up.

I can't be the only one that just includes any dependency with a permissive license? `git subtree` is so ridiculously easy for the larger dependencies and 90% of these projects are sub-500 lines in a single file, just include them.

You need a (probably paid) option to keep designs private if you want professionals to use this. MidJourney does this for example as an add-on price.

I wonder if you could design a keel with semi-permanent "slots" for the battery packs. They're going to weigh an incredible amount, so they'll probably need to be as low as possible, and partial surface contact with the
