`gron` is really lifesaver for people like me who can't survive JSON (by simply looking / reading it) but have to deal with JSON on a daily basis (REST API, K8s related). Often times a few gron / ungron runs save the day ;-)

Not just cockatoos, but also magpies, at least that's what I've observed recently. Both are intelligent birds with not so good reputation, I'd avoid making them my enemies. Both can do significant damanages to your garden and

Ventoy is relatively new bootable USB creator supporting booting directly from ISOs instead of actually block by block copying (old fashioned - like dd or pv, quite like it). It works very well in most cases using popular distros, a bit gli

Good to know that I haven't missed much without CarpPlay :-) Agree, especially the standard 3 year warranty, useless. Combined with the basic service package (around 1500~2000 AUD covering 5 years with tricky T&Cs), the car would c

Don't really care about manufacture warranty (3 years... Really? The service packages the dealers sell in Australia are tricky, especially condition-based engine oil change WTF). Self and trusted mechanic friend can take good care of t

That requires your network attached storage (NFS/iSCSI or something else) to be HA ;-) I started booting from USB SSD a couple of months ago since I got my Pi 8GB, intended to use it as my low power consumption workstation replacing th

I've been running Fedora (21 - 32 as of now) on HP MicroServer N54L Gen7 since 2014, it has a relatively weak AMD Turion II Neo N54L Dual Core processor but it's been working reliably over the years, still strong (not really when

I'd recommend wg-access-server to start with (the one web UI that I tried first), fundamentally they are pretty much the same, just UI style difference.
