  • I doubt quantum computing is ever gonna be viable for home computing. The benefits they offer over conventional computing are largely irrelevant to almost anything you might be doing at home, and better materials or manufacturing methods won't change that.

  • I also find ORMs and query builders much easier to debug than most mative SQL database queries. Mostly because native SQL error messages tend to be some of the most unhelpful, most undescriptive crap out there, and ORMs help a bit with that.

    Seriously, fuck MySQL error messages. 9 times out of 10 shit boils down to "you got some sort of error somewhere roughly over there, go fix".

  • I got that. I myself live in a hot climate where the cars turn into disgusting saunas when left 1 minute too long in the sun. Never have I ever even considered driving through someone's yard to park in the shade of their tree, even when I knew the the alternative was returning to a steering wheel that's too hot to touch.

  • I ran into that same DNS issue with pi-hole but in a docker container, and the (bandaid) solution was to put the container in host network mode too. But turns out it's not an issue but a feature. By default pi-hole only responds to DNS queries from within its local network. The host machine's LAN is an external network to the containers, unless you set the container's network mode to host. Pi-hole does have a setting to make it respond to DNS queries from other networks as well, though. What I'm saying is, that might not have been a podman issue.

  • Pspsps is essential. It draws the cat's attention to you. Then you extend a hand and look at how the cat's reacting to it. You can tell with great accuracy how interested the cat is in being pet by you, just by watching that. Works great for me. And believe me, as a resident of İstanbul for more than two decades, I have considerable experience with stray cats. I have honed my stray cat petting skills by going out of my way to interact with most of the cats I see on the streets, which is of course a rather large number of cats because İstanbul.

  • Ye, good tomatoes are not supposed to have a lot of that jelly stuff. They have more flesh per tomato, and the jelly stuff inside isn't as slimy. Where I live it's not difficult at all to get my hands on good (and cheap) tomatoes, but I also spent some time in other regions where the tomato situation was dire indeed.

  • I would be interested in understanding how the hell it's such a big issue, honestly. Even if we generously assume that runit boots 5 times as fast as systemd, on modern systems it makes like a few seconds difference, which... who cares? Who goes around constantly rebooting their shit so many times a day that those 5 seconds they save per boot add up to any significant amount of time?

  • There's no version of this reality where Jobs isn't a good businessman. You might not like the company or their products, but they've somehow managed to build a huge and successful business selling those overpriced toys to tons of people. They managed to create a cult around expensive consumer electronics. That is a massive success no matter how you slice it. And you can't deny that Jobs played a big part in that.
