I don’t know if DevOps can render them. It certainly can’t on my system. I would recommend not using the remote repository WebUI for that feature.

Jupyter notebooks can totally handled by git! If you use GitHub, it will even render them on the WebUI for you.

I’m almost a year in to a job where I was given this task with no admin access on my local windows machine, with a team that had never used an IDE or git before, and with only Google Drive as my allowed cloud tool. When I got here everything was just a bunch of Jupyter notebooks that would get run in Google Collab that were stored haphazardly over a shared Google Drive.

It’s been a slog, but Python for Windows, VSCode, Git for Windows, and Poetry can all be installed without admin access, and we got limited access to Azure DevOps. I’ve taught my team how to use powershell, git, VSCode, and Poetry, and taught them about testing and documentation (this is a slowwww process). We finally got a desktop computer with admin access this week that we can RDP into (that I requested basically right when I started), so we can run scheduled tasks on Windows and hack together some kind of a CI/CD system. We started a wiki on Azure, have most of our stuff documented and in a well organized monorepo, and track our work in boards now.

Now that other teams are starting to see how we’re doing things, they want in, too. Thank god these people are wonderful and excited to learn because otherwise this would be very frustrating.

I use FreshRSS, Read You on Android, and NewsFlash on my PC. It all syncs via FreshRSS seamlessly.

Yeah, I guess I shouldn’t have put that in this comment, I was just airing a tangential frustration. It still doesn’t help me unless I set up a vps on a whitelisted domain at my work.

I cannot access my homelab from my work network, so I cannot sync via Nextcloud. Syncthing would be better, but they just stopped supporting Android sync, which I need. Proton Drive doesn’t sync files on Android. On top of that, I don’t want to deal with sync issues because keepass isn’t designed for syncing like that. I’m not gonna go back to using Google, Microsoft, or Dropbox just for keepass. I’ve considered just keeping my db file on a flash drive, but all of the keepass Android apps I tried won’t automatically detect that the file exists when I plug in the drive.

If someone has a better way for me to use it, please enlighten me.

Bitwarden is slowly turning their stuff closed-source, and I hope they don’t turn to shit, but right now it’s what works.

Yeah, I’m talking about not just Nix, but NixOS. Nix (the package manager) can do a lot, but NixOS + disko + home-manager can literally be all of the configuration for your machine from drive partitioning through to dot files. Throw in nixos-anywhere and impermanence and you can have an insane amount of control over all of your computers.

Ansible, Terraform, Chef, etc. do have some overlap, but the main difference is that those tools iterate through the system modifying it piece by piece and NixOS is declarative.

If something fails in some of my bigger Ansible playbooks, it could mean 30 minutes of just running through all the steps again. I could probably break it into sections, but then I have to worry about making sure they all get run when things get updated. In my NixOS install, it’s way faster, I can roll back to a previous state, and troubleshooting is way easier in my opinion.

You can’t have your entire system configuration in a repository of plain text files, which has lots of advantages, but it’s not worth caring about unless you feel excited to get into it.

I’ve been able to return some games based on news that they will be adding kernel-level anti-cheat. I’m glad Valve is doing this right.

really weird that they only included a discord link, but here is the repo: https://github.com/dittofeed/dittofeed

I use it as second monitor, so I don’t game on it. Now that I think about it, though, it might be fun to play gameboy or DS emulators on it.

Good. Keeping it the same means that the original Steam Deck will remain a target device for game developers for longer.

This is insane. I will be first in line for the kit when/if it becomes available

Yeah, I got stuck on secrets management. I just could not get network manager to keep my WiFi passwords. I’ll probably go back and try again at some point.

Trying to configure Sway in NixOS. I gave up and just use KDE Plasma. I do miss using Sway from when I used Arch, though.

Ryujinx did everything right and legal. Let’s see how Nintendo supporters try to justify this one.

The main thing I have learned after switching to Linux full-time is that weird, proprietary hardware like this is almost never a good idea, for many reasons. It’s very easy to make labels for keys if you really want to, and if you need more functionality, having more buttons instead of layers is always going to be faster to learn and use. Especially if you are trying to use this as a home automation interface, it’s probably a better idea to have either a touch screen or a separate screen and keypad.

Sure, this thing looks nice, but in a couple years (at most) it will be e-waste.

They only list support for Windows and MacOS on their site. The answer is almost certainly no, it doesn’t work with Linux. People may reverse engineer it like they did with the Stream Deck or GoXLR devices, but don’t hold your breath. Your best alternative would be something like this: https://drop.com/buy/megalodon-doio-hot-swappable-rgb-30-keyboard?defaultSelectionIds=970727

EDIT: Or, you could build your own without the need of a raspberry pi using something like this: https://www.instructables.com/STREAM-DECK-KILLER-and-OpenSource/

When I was in my early 20’s and first on dating apps, ghosting was frustrating, but as I became more aware and empathetic, and learned that I am not entitled to the attention of others, that frustration became a lot less of an issue pretty quickly. This looks like it was developed by people who haven’t realized that and it feels pretty cringe. I doubt this will go anywhere.

The fact that there is overlap has no bearing on whether your definition is common.
