This looks really useful. I have a home server with various VMs and containers, but I don't do server admin very often, so whenever something breaks I have to find out how to fix it each time. Having terminals in a document just like y

Does running an indexer and crawler help make the content available to others, or why would this be legally risky? Why would anyone care about what kind of Docker container I run on my home server?

What's stopping you from using ONNX models on other platforms? A hardware agnostic abstraction to make it easier for consumers to actually use their inference capable hardware seems like a good idea, and exactly the kind of stuff I thi

One killer feature in OSMAnd is the ability to add new maps layers. It's possible to find Strava's heatmaps as overlays (unofficially), which can be really helpful for instance.

I hope this is the start of more ML filters in ffmpeg. They added the sr (super resolution) filter years ago, but it's old and it's difficult to get the weights so you can run it, since they're not included. They have added s

Fun fact about Strava's routing, they don't support ferries, something most other alternatives like RWGPS do. They've been asked for years to support it, just as they've been asked for more than a decade to support multi
