The worst are the triathletes. Always trying to work it into every conversation. Ugh.

Also, any other triathletes around?

I feel attacked.

But seriously, I just like some of the race shirts. I don’t typically wear it for anyone but me, though I do like seeing other peoples race gear. I’ve found out about a lot of cool races because someone had a shirt.

You can do that in LibreOffice. Its just a few more clicks than in Excel. Its such a common feature they should really make it clearer. I think the feature is “Database Ranges”

I mean, self hosting is basically gardening for computers.

Those work pretty well these days

What’s it got that Ptyxis doesn’t?

Every time I use Powershell it makes me love bash even more

I’ve not used i2p but I’ve had to mess with a lot of other random weird tools under bazzite. I’d suggest installing it in a distrobox. There is a command for linking programs from your host into the distrobox and then exposing them back to the host. I forget the exact syntax but I used it for vscode and intellij and it was really straight forward and worked well. I don’t see why it wouldn’t work with i2p and Firefox.

Looks neat, but Navidrome+Tempo have been working great for me.

Great points, but I’m on the opposite side while being in a similar user group. I never used Arch, but I used Gentoo for a few years and did LFS a couple times. Now I’m using Aurora/Bazzite on my workstations. I hack around on my machines a lot but sometimes I just like stuff that works too. When I need to get some development done, I don’t want to run into the weird bit of configuration left over from some previous project. I like that it pushes users towards encapsulation mechanisms like flatpaks and devcontainers. It keeps the core cleaner and more stable. The tradeoffs of having to bake extra packages into a container somewhere usually aren’t too bad.

I was describing this to my partner and she thought i said “LGBT”. Yes. The LGBTQ community created this technology and weaponized it. Next on Fox News.

Thank you for that visual. I never realized the world needed Zeppelin Man.

Kubernetes is great if you run lots of services and/or already use kubernetes at work. I use it all the time and I’ve learned a lot on my personal cluster that I’ve taken to work to improve their systems. If you’re used to managing infra already then it’s not that much more work, and it’s great to be able to shutdown a server for maintenance and not have to worry about more than a brief blip on your home services.

There are some antidepressants, like Wellbutrin, that are used off-label for ADHD very effectively, if anyone is interested in a non-simulant option. In my experience it doesn’t help so much with focus directly, but it makes the “boring” tasks feel less boring and thus easier to focus on. It’s especially effective for those with more of the depression symptoms that often accompany ADHD too.

And let’s not forget his marvelous performance as the unhinged detective in Leon/The Professional. Chef’s kiss

Embrace it. Think of awkwardness as your charm and eventually others will too.
