  • Look into beelink mini s12 pro for example. Currently 199 eur on Amazon. Just install Linux on it and Bob's your uncle. It's x86 so no weird arm issues. Full support of the hw in mainline kernel.

    Intel, 500 GB SSD , 16 GB ram, GPU acceleration, WiFi 6, Bluetooth, 1 Gbps link. You can add another SSD drive. Raspberry is clearly an underdog here.

  • It's an infernal machine. My wife bought it secondhand for pennies and is making smoothies for kids with it. But damn at full throttle it sounds like a jet engine. Whenever it stands on the kitchen counter I carefully tiptoe around it scared it will suck me in and pulverize me into fine tomato paste.

  • In Berlin, in 2004, a letfist local newspaper Taz initiated a move to rename part of a street their office is located at in remembrance of Rudi-Dutschke. He was a prominent socialist activist in the 60s, even survived assassination but unfortunately died a couple of years later.

    Another newspaper, Axel-Springer has their headquarters on the same street. The same company did play significant role in dissing the student movement Rudi-Dutschke was part of and some believe they are indirectly responsible for the assassination.

    What ensued was a long legal battle, where the court had to decide whether the street could be renamed. Taz won the court case and in 2008 the street got its new name.

    In 2009, Taz installed a sculpture displaying well-known editors of Bild (owned by Axel Springer), the most sold tabloid in Europe. Their chief editor Kai Diekmann (sic) sports an oversized dick that goes up to the roof of the building. Of course Bild tried to sue, but they lost and the sculpture is there to be enjoyed to this day.

    In Germany, you can have fun, but it must be blessed by the court.

  • Take some leftover rice from yesterday, or prepare some by steaming.

    Heat a pan, drop a tablespoon of oil in. Fry any form of fresh garlic and ginger in it. Throw in the rice. Stir, mix, fry.

    Then mix the soy sauce into the rice, mix. Start with smaller amount, you can add more later. Crack an egg or two and pour them in. Mix for a while until the eggs cook.

    Top with a spring onion, Lao gan ma chilli crisp, sesame oil, sesame. Serve.

    Most of the ingredients in the recipe are optional, you really just need the rice, soy sauce and eggs.

    If you like porridges, try making some congee, it is easier if you have a rice cooker. The rest of the recipe is almost the same as with the fried rice above.

  • My first Linux distro was SuSE 7.x, just because we had an installation box in the high school library. 8 CDs to install packages from etc. Funny stuff.

    Then I played with Gentoo & Debian for a couple of years, but went back to openSuSE once I started my first real job. We had to use it because we needed a Red Hat compatible and enterprise ready Linux. And I am using openSuSE to this day if I have a choice. Everything works, if I quickly need something YaST can configure a lot of shit and is just super user-friendly.

    But I recommend Leap for day-to-day work, Tumbleweed with its rolling updates keeps updating almost 24/7.

  • I use grafanalib. I have a script that generates the dashboards depending on given parameters, then I store generated JSON as a k8s configmap that's mounted into the directory that's checked by grafana on startup. Might not be everyone's cup of tea but it is good enough for me.

  • I used to buy a lot of things in AliExpress, but since they've changed their business it's usually better to just order on Amazon.

    The things on AliExpress used to be dirt cheap and it was a no brainer buying random electronics components in a pack of five for a price of one in the EU shop.

    Or sometimes I was looking to some oddly specific item and I always found it on AliExpress. It's no longer the case, it seems the search results are 10 products of 3 manufacturers that are essentially the same thing.

  • Only when googling stuff I sometime add site:reddit.com, but I am no longer browsing reddit on my phone. With the death of RIF and APIs I just can't stomach looking at the page.

    And good bless old.reddit redirector plugin.
