I'll usually do steps 1 and 2 for a reasonably complex review. I'll reference the diff from the website (for work, this is Azure DevOps, for personal, GitHub or similar) while I inspect and run the modified code locally.

Tiny aerosolized particles of toilet tissue from constantly unrolling it.

I might be ok with this if they also had "ebb" pricing. If I could walk in at 8pm and get a burger for a buck, it might be worth it never to go at lunchtime again.

This, of course, will never happen.

If using open source projects and sharing my experience by helping others on forums and logging detailed bugs when I find them counts as contribution, then everyday.

I'm a software dev myself, but I have enough on my plate with my day job and two kids that have to be taken to all manner of activities. I don't know how all these people find the time to work on free software, probably for little to no compensation, but my hat is off to all of you, wherever you are.

GoToSocial is pretty good, but it has some fundamental limitations like being unable to follow hashtags and not having a web client of its own. I currently have a self-hosted instances of both Mastodon and GoToSocial (for testing purposes), but I mostly use the Mastodon one.

Doesn't it bug you that the LMDE logo in neofetch has the top line messed up? I have all my local systems patches and there is a PR up on their repo for it.

Thia sucks, I have an S23 and I'm up to date with patches, but I don't see this option.

Edit: Just realized that I'm only on OneUI 6.0.

Just put a candidate endorsement in porn to make it political.

The first thing I do when researching a new electronic thing is to search "[brand] home assistant" to see if there is already an integration for their stuff. If not, I usually keep looking.

Bookstack is what I self host, but this is the best pure markdown editor I've found: https://markdownlivepreview.com/

Oh, I fully blame HP for this, but I am also just asking the question. Now that you mentioned colouring pages, I remember that I used a printer pretty heavily while my kids were home during quarantine.

For the odd time I have to print something, it's more worth my while to just go to Staples or whatever and get it printed for me there.

The only other thing I cam remember printing in the near term has been amazon return labels.

Somebody tell me again why we, as a society, still print things? Other than publishing, why do we need printers?

Exactly. I have a stainless French press as well. I've broken two glass ones. Not only is there broken glass to clean up, there's also no coffee...

I just use Navidrome's web client. It does everything I need. DSub on Android.

I am using a normal desktop case with an external usb-c 8-bay JBOD drive enclosure from Mediasonic. I'm using mdadm to combine the drives with RAID-6. I know I'm not getting the performance that I could with native SATA, but it can still saturate my 1Gbps network, so it's good enough for serving video, audio, and some other web-based apps.

Also worked for the Commodore 64 and Vic20.
