It's probably not a flaky USB cable. Androids charging limit of 80% includes a policy to charge 100% every 14 days to recalibrate the battery controller. A possibility to limit charging to ~65% does not exist per se but you can measure

Sounds awesome. What happens if you cleanup the source by deleting oldest snapshots? Is it able to replicate this, too?

I'm totally aware... However p10k is the thing I used before so fallback was a low hanging fruit.

starship is great. I use it with a powerlevel10k fallback in my dotfiles for systems, starship is not installed yet to not break the shell entirely.

Since I opted out of Google via GrapheneOS, I use one of my old phones in my car just to navigate. Another phone is an audiobook listening device for my kids (they choose and I play). Of course I also have a dedicated dev phone.

Absolutely - I know that but thanks for pointing that out again. There is no real "use case" for NOT storing the key into a root owned file. However, as I don't do it for myself there is no way of accidentally deleting the fi

Long time Linux Desktop user here. I really think Linux is a great choice as a Desktop in days of liquid glass and webviews. There are a lot of choices to make, but in the end it is working out really well (at least for me). KDE and the new

Try dra[1] and a simple shell script in your dotfiles that installs / updates everything in $HOME/bin along with extending the $PATH. Works great for most of my tools (exa, zoxide, bat, jq, etc). 1: https://githu

I bet that somehow you can make ImgBurn (the successor) include the old features (e.g. by setting a hidden key in the environment variables or something). If not, the code was probably patched out in the build process...

I did some research in dumping damaged dvds lately because I had some little treasures laying around that were just unusable. I had good success using DVD Decrypter (hardly available, I got my copy years ago) ignoring bad sectors in the set

Cool, i wish i had the skills. I'm planning to learn PCB design to build a low power low cost PCB based in the SG2002/LicheeRV Nano design with a MAX17043 battery gauge, gpio buttons and a battery controller like TP4057. Let me kn

Maybe I share my story here to give you another perspective on this. I was a higher role solution architect in a kind of start-up-ish fast growing company with a great team and great opportunities. I worked there for a long time, everything

My personal take is that most Android devices no longer get updates pretty soon after the release (where pretty soon means 2-3 years). Google promises 7 years of support for their newer devices, but most vendors don't. LineageOS is, be

MeiliSearch is the top thing to try on my list - did you use it in production environments? If so, how did the deployment go? And how is your experience about the minimum requirements for a stable search server? I would be very interested i

CachyOS has a decent kernel with ZFS integrated. So for everyone using Arch - you can also use ONLY the kernel without the other changes, which makes the general experience a bit quicker, battery lasting a bit longer and if you're usin

I'd rather go with an old Dell T30 and 2x10TB Seagate Exos in ZFS RAID1 mode (Mirror). This thing would make me nervous every day, even with a daily backup in place... While the Dell T30 would also make me nervous, you could at least p
