Best advice is can give you is to #DOCUMENT everything you do for what reason and how it works inside your config file. So you know what each code block does and how it executes making your entire config dummy proof also helps learn the syntax super fast!
- Comment on I built a self-hosted period tracker because I couldn't find one worth using 1 week ago:
I see how they differ now. Local vs self hosted. Niche use. But I get your idea especially helpful between partners I suppose. Keep it going! Let’s see where it lands in time. Personally I think the name is hard to remember and pronounce correctly which means it might not be super catchy and really take off. My opinion and in no way should deter you. Perhaps tweak the name. Overall though good job and keep going. This not a negative thing I say. Just to trying to help you refine the idea to success. Best of luck!
- Comment on Lenovo’s New ThinkPads Score 10/10 for Repairability— Repair goes mega mainstream with the launch of Lenovo's new T-series laptops 1 week ago:
The shitty aspect is their actually not bad hardware. They last forever and seem to be held in high regards in the tech community but it’s as if people forgot a decade later than their still owned by Chinese. Still banned for security reasons for military use even currently after 20 years. Now the military still supplies them just not for mission critical purposes but for personal devices not govt use.
Wild. Every tech person at some point shills for Lenovo and they do have great things. Just screams Trojan horse to me still. IMO

Why not use drip or mensinator? Both FOSS.

Isnt lenovo the company that used to make the rugged military laptops that actually had Chinese or foreign backdoors installed?

- Comment on Is Fast Charging Killing the Battery? A 2-Year Test on 40 Phones 4 months ago:
I think this accurate or close to it for phones but my laptop battery a Dell has degraded very quickly through 50 plus or more cycles of battery like 15 percent. It went from 59wh down to 50wh and it ebbs and flows. Runs Linux mint and installed power top and some other low power mods to help dumb things down to conserve. I feel like arm processors vs x86 are wildly different.
- Comment on iSweep 4 months ago:
Wyze makes a good one for 150 USD. It comes with 4 wheel drive and can drive over a pile of 100ft extension cord tangled on the floor. No account bullshit. It’s not best sucker upper but it doesn’t wildly work good for the cheap price. Keeps the house mostly spotless. Fuck the mop versions they suck. But the vacuum version is worth the money. You do manually empty the bin and long hair jams the rolling vacuum head but it’s small potatoes compared to the dog hair it gets.

- Comment on How do you secure your home lab? Like, physically? From thieves? 5 months ago:
Encrypt your data period. A burglar isn’t going to worry about your home lab unless it’s oozing money from the look of it.
Your family and friends will be the ones to snoop your data. So know that and prepare accordingly.
A thief is going to steal car wheels, weapons, tools, electronics that seem resellable, gold and jewelry, things of immediate value to sell or trade for most likely drugs. Quick cash.

- Comment on Bye Intel, hi AMD! I’m done after 2 dead Intels 6 months ago:
If your running that CPU then you almost certainly have done research or have money. Either way. Enjoy the setup you’ve got a good cooler and CPU it seems.
- Comment on Bye Intel, hi AMD! I’m done after 2 dead Intels 6 months ago:
The Noctua NH 15 is a great air cooler one of the best air coolers actually. What are you pairing it to? What CPU?
Almost all things noctua are good. However. They are expensive and if you’re not plotting on future cpu high TDP chips it’s overkill. I don’t honestly see the need to drop that much money on a CPU cooler. There’s near equal more cost effective options. Unless your doing major overclocks, cpu heavy loads at near max clock speed constantly where you think major wear and tear will happen I don’t for see the need to spend that much. I’ve built many many PCs.
You can find comparable air coolers much cheaper. Think 50 to 80 range and technically you can score them on eBay for cheaper than that. Look at the Phantom spirit 120 cheapest 30 to 40 usd, AK620 1 to 3c cooler than phantom 50 to 65usd, frost commander 140 80usd, noctua DH 15 150 to 180usd.
Of course prices fluctuate. Those get you the best ranked air coolers for the most part. Their all within roughly 5C of each other. All good coolers. Take the extra money savings and add to a GPU or whatever part you really need.
- Comment on Bye Intel, hi AMD! I’m done after 2 dead Intels 6 months ago:
95c is damn near boiling at 203f. That is too hot to sustain any good longevity of a part, and any good workload for any component in a PC. That is a lot of heat. You will not get the best performance for a processor at its maximum temperatures running it like that all the time or even close to its max operating temp. I’m not saying you can’t hit that number but ideally you really really shouldn’t.
So what I said I think stands. Upgrade to a better air cooler and if need be a water cooler at least a 240AIO nothing smaller period. Keep temps lower and parts last longer. Performance boosts during core loads hold clocks longer. No question.
- Comment on DDR4 costs soar as manufacturers pull the plug — panic buying and stockpiling impact DDR4 spot pricing as supply dwindles 6 months ago:
16 is minimum and 32 is recommended if you do much pc gaming, browsing, or torrenting. Things with multiple programs. A single browser and steam open. I regularly hit 16 to 20gb on mint and librewolf.
- Comment on Bye Intel, hi AMD! I’m done after 2 dead Intels 6 months ago:
Slight under volt, or upgrade cooler. 90c is too hot sustainably. Idle high 40s to 50s is not the best. Find a better air cooler or use a 240 AIO atleast.
