Use a raid atrray, and replace drives as they fail. Ideally they wouldnt fail behind your back, like an optical disk would.

I’ve used minio briefly, and I’ve never used any other self hosted object storage. In the context of spinning it up with docker, it’s pretty easy. The difficult part in my project was that I wanted some buckets predefined. The docker image doesn’t provide this functionality directly, so I had to spin up an adjacent container with the minio cli that would create the buckets automatically every time I spun up minio.

But for your use case you would manage bucket creation manually, from the UI. It seems straight forward enough, and I don’t have complaints. I think it would work for your use case, but I can’t say its any worse or better than alternatives.

The problem isnt gmail, the problem is using an email for this purpose. Switching to protonmail wont make a difference. If you want privacy, use a different communications protocol. For example, use signal, and if anyone wants baby updates, they better install it too, cause thats the only way you’ll send them.

Has anyone ever used the enterprise version of dbeaver? Does it do as good a job interfacing with nosql databases it does relational databases?

Thanks for keeping the Lemmy community up to date. Its been cool hearing about how youve grown this project from engine to website to online cloud platform and now a game cohesive enough to sell to a casual steam audience. Congratulations on this achievement. Your passion for backgammon, and this bgammon project, is inspiring.

Can you post a pic of your DE? Im curious to know what your cinnamon looks like.

Cashing checks and zelle are the big ones

Big fan of the reader mode changes. I’ll probabky start using it more often, not just on sites with horrendous popups.

I’ve used this extension for krita, which lets you select part of the image and have an AI draw in your selection based on a prompt. It can work for outpainting, and inpainting, like removing a feature from an image (or adding one). You may have to do some prompt engineering to get the right outcome: https://github.com/Acly/krita-ai-diffusion?tab=readme-ov-file

Upscayl is for specifically AI upscaling: https://upscayl.org/download Its a handy tool to have nearby depending on the type of image work you’re doing.

My drive to nix was so I could simply manage what packages I had installed with a text file. If I removed something from the file, I expect it to be uninstalled. I never found a tool/wrapper for apt to do this.

If you want to start with nixos, I would take whatever distro you are on and install nix and then home manager. Then, you can slowly migrate your user configuration over without starting from scratch. That worked really well for me going from ubuntu to nixos.

Wow thats a crazy trackball! What brand/model is it?

Most people don’t validate anything on a resume, depends on industry. If you think its too personal, dont put it. Make it up. Dont put your phone number or address if you dont want to. Or lie. Most applications I applied for I put the address of the town center in the city I live in. They dont need to know my actual address until I talk with payroll.

Ooh, can you explain how guns/shooting becomes a hobby? I can imagine how you might buy one for self defense or hunting, does that maks it a hobby or does it go deeper?

I use Vutlr. They have a nice UI.

This is very multipurpose, but if you haven’t heard of gridfinity, there might be modules that would be helpful you home lab, or your home in general.

Wow, I never considered swap. I’ve had this problem with my laptop for the last year. I’ll fix this, thank you.

Whats the name of the process monitor? The fade on the process list is awesome.

Are these complaints about the free tier? I can see how they might start witholding options for that. Removing the delete option doesn’t seem right.
