Inside me there are two wolves, one that thinks "gamer" stuff is stupid, and another that thinks this router looks sweet as hell.

Ive got some stuff that i think is similar to what you are trying where i have an excel file template and use python to read from the database and populate cells in excel and then save a pdf.

There are a couple different options for python libraries - openpyxl, xlwings, or pywin32.

It is annoying and goofy, but works. Excel can be very flexible with getting everything sized just right for what your final output/pdf should look like.

Im very amused at it being in word rather than .xlsx or .txt, like them going out if their way to make it worse because word is all they know.

Ive started using homebox and i like it. Granted, i only use it for myself right now, not sure how it works for multiple people and public vs private repos

There is a paint pigment that is available for sale but you have to confirm that you are not Anish Kapoor (another artist) and that you will let Kapoor get his hands on the pigment.

I imagine that this incident will come up in the Apple antitrust case that the US Department of Justice has brought.

Thanks!

If im doing this right, the url is just the releases page for the repo with a .atom at the end. So for Vaultwarden it is https://github.com/dani-garcia/vaultwarden/releases.atom

If youre up for it, you could stream off of your home desktop with Sunshine and use the laptop just as a light-weight client. Then the requirements for the laptop are a lot less and could potentially play even better games.

I played dota on my old laptop at a friends house while it actually streamed from my home desktop and it worked fine. I dont remember if you need a domain or static IP or anything like that, which may be a barrier. Or if upload speeds just wont allow it

Do you have any sources that go into this? Nothing comes up in my cursory searching...

I may finally get around to switching the main machine if this is the case

I started out using certbot, but once i needed a reverse proxy i found caddy. I was confused at first at how to set up the certificates for caddy, but it told me it would just work and my sites have the https and the little lock, so i guess it is just magic!

Have found caddy to be generally easy. I think first starting with it took a bit more to figure out, but it does work well

Pretty well lit for a shadowy place.

But holy shit those ergonomics. The desk is at their shoulders...

I think the idea/joke is that the police are effectively privatized by being privately funded and carring out the rules of their funders.

Yes

If im drunk in someone elses tesla and i shit myself, im leaving the drawers in the car. Im not walking around in that.

I selfhost a forgejo instance, which is the underlying framework for codeberg (and they maintain forgejo).

Federation is in the works, they say.

If i was going to have any projects public, this is where i would do it.

Tyty

What incredibly obvious thing am i missing that i cant add my freshrss account? It is all just greyed out...

Would be a bit more like "i consider myself a Christian, not because i follow the mainstream conception of Christianity but because i read what Jesus himself said and agree with it."

At least some of these tools change their "user agent" to be whatever google's crawler is.

When you browse in, say, Firefox, one of the headers that firefox sends to the website is "I am using Firefox" which might affect how the website should display to you or let the admin knkw they need firefox compatibility (or be used to fingerprint you...).

You can just lie on that, though. Some privacy tools will change it to Chrome, since that's the most common.

Or, you say "i am the google web crawler", which they let past the paywall so it can be added to google.

The culture war is v stupid, yes. But "use signal" is the same as "dont text your friend with a different app at all" with signal dropping sms. They are in a different position that google and apple, so not saying i blame them for dropping, but i did stop using it once it become "another app" instead of how i text.
