Nice - having tried wvkbd I would agree. How did you plan to use gnome's vkb without gnome?

Software engineer here who works on web services. Most production-critical things in our workplace aren't managed by GUI's, or command lines... but by code. There are usually some infrastructure-as-code tools involved, like Terraform, CDK or Pulumi.

GUI's are often reserved for quick fixes and trying out things on staging servers (derisively called "click-ops").

I've gone through a similar conclusion myself. I used to use daily notes, dataview, and all sorts of Obsidian plugins to manage my tasks.

I find that I generally like to keep my vault to primarily be a "long term storage" tool. I want to use search to find curated info, not littered with to-do notes that don't add value past it's due date.

I've since migrated my To-Do activities to TickTick, and moved my daily notes to a secondary vault.

It's a desperate move to prevent a checkmate. If white did anything else (try c5 for example), black will reply with g6#.

If white did Bxf6, and black tries g6, white can escape by doing Kxg5.

Depends on what kind of app of course, but I've seen Progression (Android) recommended a lot around weight lifting online communities.

Honestly I've been wondering why AI porn is so... predictably unusual? Like I would have imagined having AI means we'll have absurd pterodactyl porn, but instead it's just nude photography but AI

On my Pixel 7 Pro, on Settings - Battery, 89% is estimated to last up to 15 hours 30 mins. How about yours?

Smart Launcher. It feels more polished than Nova Launcher, and has most of the features I'd expect from an alternate launcher.

With that said tho, I'm actually using the stock Pixel launcher because... Why not, it's not really bad.

Are these rules already known to me before making a choice? If so, then the two choices are:

  • Box A and B = guaranteed to be $0
  • Box B = could either be $100B or $0

Seems like an easy choice to make.

It's Box A and B because I don't want to be a billionaire.

I agree with this - I've been steadfast in working on a single monitor workflow. Not only is it more ergonomic (pressing keys is less effort than moving your head), I find that it helps with focus too. I find that having more than 2 (or 3) windows open only provides distractions and sensory overload for me.

Good observation! I tried to maximise rolls on common symbol bigrams (=> :) ({...})) and minimise single-finger bigrams. You're right that -= is kinda meh because it's an SFB but += and *= are kinda alright 😊

Wow, surprised I'm not hearing more about this

One downside though is Crostini takes a pretty big performance hit. I remember comparing Crostini (Linux in a VM) to Crouton (native) and it was night and day. I agree it's workable though it probably means you may need to pick out a Chromebook with sufficient specs.

Have you seen it? What do you think?

 

Hey all! For the longest time I've had a server that hosts some things (eg Syncthing), but is only available via SSH tunneling.

I've been thinking of self-hosting more things like Nextcloud and Vaultwarden. I can keep my SSH tunneling setup but it might make it difficult to do SSL.

How do you manage the security of having public-facing servers?
