Just a guy doing stuff.
It was a lighthearted jab at calling 8 years ago recent; Not a political statement about Apple or operating systems.
8 years is a ton of time in tech, CPUs from 2016 are ancient. Single-core CPU performance has doubled in Intel’s laptop chips since then, and modern laptop CPUs from Intel are often 12-core, versus the top end 2016 MacBook Pro having 4 cores.
Not trying to start any fights, was just poking fun at the choice to call 2016 recent
I can read, and a 2016 MacBook pro is not even a bit recent; It’s from 8 years ago :-)
Just a bit of light-hearted leg pulling, nothing to get worked up over
I hate to break it to you friendo, but 8 year old hardware isn’t recent. It may still be usable, but that doesn’t make it recent. It’s ok though grandpa, let’s get you back to bed
The dual GPU problem has actually for the most part also been solved; Optimus rarely poses a problem these days
If just telling her what you want isn’t enough for you to feel like you’re communicating effectively, try asking her if you could add to it by telling her how you want it, and then maybe expand to how you’re desiring to feel about it.
E.g. not just “I would like oral” but instead, “I would like oral, and I’d love to hear that you’re enjoying it, however you want to express it.” <- This is a request that is direct and specific but doesn’t feel robotic or unceremonious IMHO.
I have ASD and my wife doesn’t, so we’ve established that it often makes the most sense when we just explicitly just ask one another, “what can I do for you tonight?” Which leads to very specific answers about what we’re wanting to get out of it and how we can best achieve that together. “I’ve been thinking about you in this way” or “I’d like to know what it looks/feels/tastes/sounds like when you …” Followed by describing whatever action would best fulfill the desire, followed by any specifics and how we’re feeling about it now. “Now that we’ve talked about it I’m definitely excited to see that” and such.
Dunno if that’s helpful but there might be ways to make it feel more special while still being explicit and direct! Just talk about the how and why and how you feel about it.
Basically, imagine every gun has a laser beam coming out the end. If that laser lights something up, that something is in danger.
Always fail soft in underlying code and hard in user space IMHO
A single git command can get everything for split repos if you use submodules
I just use discord in a browser on my machine. Cant stand the desktop client.
Meanwhile, for my homelab I just use split DNS and a (properly registered+set up) .house domain - But that’s because I have services that I want to have working with one name both inside and outside of my network
Yep, as someone who just recently setup a hyperconverged mini proxmox cluster running ceph for a kubernetes cluster atop it, storage is hard to do right. Wasn’t until after I migrated my minor services to the new cluster that I realized that ceph’s rbd csi can’t be used by multiple pods at once, so having replicas of something like Nextcloud means I’ll have to use object storage instead of block storage. I mean. I can do that, I just don’t want to lol. It also heavily complicates installing apps into Nextcloud.
Four words all uppercase, one word all lowercase
Certbot also does DNS challenge, fwiw
DNS challenge makes it even easier, since you don’t have to go through the process of transferring it yourself
Others have addressed the root and trust questions, so I thought I’d mention the “mess” question:
Even the messiest bowl of ravioli is easier to untangle than a bowl of spaghetti.
The mounts/networks/rules and such aren’t “mess”, they are isolation. They’re commoditization. They’re abstraction - Ways to tell whatever is running in the container what it wants to hear, so that you can treat the container as a “black box” that solves the problem you want solved.
Think of Docker containers less like pets and more like cattle, and it very quickly justifies a lot of that stuff because it makes the container disposable, even if the data it’s handling isn’t.
That’s pretty much what I do as well. It was an absolute game-changer for me when I discovered tiling WMs some ~7 years ago, because it meant super consistent keyboard shortcuts for getting to exactly what I wanted to interact with. I know where individual apps/tasks go, so I put them there. And then when I need to switch to them, it’s as straightforward as Super+[workspace].
Also helps a ton that i3wm’s workspaces only take up a single monitor at a time, which makes it excellent for jumping between monitors.
None of this is set in stone, but I usually follow a relatively consistent pattern:
Center Monitor
Left monitor
Right monitor
Ah, neat! I just looked it up and it does look useful.
I’ve never really had any trouble with dark reader speed-wise - though it gives one major bonus that no other extension has so far: Attempting to match the appearance of darkened websites to my system theme (Catppuccin)
I can’t tell if you’re agreeing with me, disagreeing with me, or suggesting some alternative
I’m sorry, my goal wasn’t to be a bother. My initial comment was intended to be friendly and funny - I’m not trying to patronize or be antagonistic. I learned a couple of years ago that I have autism, so I should have learned my lesson by now and stopped trying to be funny; It never pans out the way I mean for it to.
Hope I wasn’t too much of a drag on your day, and I hope it gets better for you.
With that said, a genuine question with no jokes: Can you help me understand how 2016 counts as recent, given the context? It was almost a decade ago, and I’m having trouble comprehending how it counts at all as recent since in tech “recent” usually means “in the last 2-3 years” unless you’re comparing to something from a much longer time ago like the 90s.
