  I am using SiYuan and I use the web app as a short cut, so that I can easily create notes on my phone.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨We are all going through something⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Sounds like a dialog from Dark Souls

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Plex got hacked.⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Fully agree. There is no time and space to play the blame game, as it simply does not matter at this point. React swiftly and be transparent. You are free to invest months afterwards for investigations and followups

  I knew Michael Stapelberg from other projects, but I just realized he is the author of the i3 Window Manager. Damn!

  Wait, I thought it is for left- and right handed people?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨18% of people running Nextcloud don't know what database they are using⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  And 46% have no idea what a database is.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨This was a big deal. You could play a game on your cell phone⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  And you could use the IR blaster to play multiplayer games.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨YSK that despite being outside of US jurisdiction, Lego has dropped diversity and inclusion terminology from its annual report⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  As if I would care what’s included and not in an annual report. Stop acting as this is the only thing which is wrong in any given company. How about you just boycott everything, starting with the manufacturer of the device you are currently using. Hypocrites.

  They have a concept of a strategy.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨We too often minimize the sacrifices parents make for us⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I see. My interpretation might have been wrong. Things can be of different value, from low to high. What I was trying to say was, that it does not feel like a sacrifice to me, since I am not losing that much, and I gain a lot, by investing time and money into my kids.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨We too often minimize the sacrifices parents make for us⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Sacrificing means giving up something valued for the sake of something else. Nothing is of value to me except my kids. In that sense, I don’t have to sacrifice anything.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Can fully agree and would even say wait until 32

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Itch.io are seeking out new payment processors who are more comfortable with adult material⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Oh right. I keep on forgetting about this awesome project. Now I wonder why it is not successful and I fear the lobbyism of banking and payment providers is just too good.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Itch.io are seeking out new payment processors who are more comfortable with adult material⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I hate to say it, but this would be one use case where crypto currencies would be ideal. Or any other decentralized solution.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Sony Sues Tencent Over Horizon Lookalike⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Oh they obviously make more money out of those IP than they invest. And some IP’s are rather good. However, suing competition also means the market is so small, it is worth fighting them on the legal path, which actually proves my point.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Sony Sues Tencent Over Horizon Lookalike⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Same for Assassin’s Creed, Black Ops, etc. It does not mean they get bought because they are good. It means there is nothing else to play. For Pokémon there is actually a good example how to create this healthy competition - it is called Palworld.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Sony Sues Tencent Over Horizon Lookalike⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  A game does not sell just because of art or the IP. So I like that there is competition. Would suck for Sony if the copy had better code quality, a better story, more content than their games at half the price.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Solar powered personal umbrella with battery?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  You know there are transparent materials that can withstand forces of those, that are applied on a bicycle path. No one was even remotely talking about driving over unprotected panels. That’s just a weird imagination in your head. Instead of doing that, you could just invest a couple of minutes into reading what is getting tested already.

  Netherland’s Solar Roadway Performing Even Better Than Expected!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Solar powered personal umbrella with battery?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  There is nothing absurd about it. Every surface, which is constantly exposed to the sun, should be covered in PV panels.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Solar powered personal umbrella with battery?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I actually did not, and here around, I don’t see anyone do that. I believe climate and culture are the factors influencing the popularity of using an umbrella as mobile shade.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Solar powered personal umbrella with battery?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Interesting. It appears that it is one side effect of climate change.

  Side note: PV panels try to absorb a lot of light. Parasols try to reflect it, which is why they usually have a bright color. Imagine now holding an umbrella, absorbing more energy than your skin/hair would, causing you to sweat even more?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Solar powered personal umbrella with battery?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I think there are some test roads in the Netherlands on the bike lane. Roads are used in all weather conditions, 24/7. Umbrellas not. Roads have approximately the same energy yield as any solar panel on the roof, minus the suboptimal angle and minus the road users causing shadows.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Solar powered personal umbrella with battery?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Different device, similar features. They tend to be much larger, making the weight an even bigger issue.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Solar powered personal umbrella with battery?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  A device, which is only used when it is really cloudy for photovoltaics has to be one of the dumbest ideas ever.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The Price is Wrong, Bitch⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Oh wow. He is some personality

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The Price is Wrong, Bitch⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Wait, did this actually happen, or is he just a look a like with the same first name?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨blursed⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Wait. I know how to cure the MAGA’s.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨PAPERS, PLEASE - The Short Film⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  It is easy to say “they could have left the country. They did not. So they support Putin.”

  Just look at the US.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨From Docker with Ansible to k3s: I don't get it...⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Of course it is overkill for a homelab. The other features can be achieved by the other solutions as well.

  Just ask yourself the following question: why is helm so popular? Why do I need a third party scripting language just for K8s?

  You clearly will feel that K8s did many things right. 10 years ago. But we learned from that. And operations cost are exploding everywhere I see K8s in use (with or without Helm). Weird side effects, because at this layer you almost have an indefinite amount of edge cases.

  That’s why I move away from K8s. To make very large and complex platforms manageable for a small operations team. The DevOps Engineers don’t like that obviously, because it is a major skill on the job market. In the end, I have to prioritize and all I can do is spread awareness, that K8s was great at some point, as was Windows 98 SE.
