- Comment on Matrix messaging gaining ground in government IT 1 day ago:
Oh, is that why everyone hates matrix so much? I’ve been rocking it for years for me and my wife to communicate. It’s been pretty solid. Calls/video calls are hit and miss, but the chat has been great. I’ve never federated it. Account creation is locked down, local auth, etc.

As former QA I also agree with this chart.
- Comment on which library for a selfhosted simple matrix bot? 1 week ago:
I’m not sure about bots, but if you don’t shy away from python, I just use the requests library:
homeserver_url = “XXX”
access_token = “XXX”
room_id = “!XXX”
url = f{homeserver_url}/_matrix/client/r0/rooms/{room_id}/send/m.room.message"headers = {“Authorization”: f"Bearer {access_token}",“Content-Type”: “application/json”,}
data = `“msgtype”: “m.text”,“body”: “Question of the day!”,}
response = requests.post(url, headers=headers, data=json.dumps(data))
- Comment on YSK facts about renewable vs fossil, and more 1 week ago:
Was about to watch it, then read “Please watch til the end. I guarantee you will not regret it.”
If I had a nickle fot every time I’ve been promised that, and regretted it, I’d be a rich man.
- Comment on How long does it take for pregnancy to become noticeable? 1 week ago:
Depends on the girl and the number of babies you’ve had. If you’re on your 4th baby people will be able to tell sooner than your first.
Generally it’s unnoticeable for everyone in the first trimester. Second trimester is probably pretty safe too, this is when you might start looking a little fat by the end, but not really pregnant. Third trimester is when the majority of the weight is gained, and the baby grows the fastest. In the last month of the third trimester the baby gains like a pound per week.

I don’t think this is it, but maybe?
- Comment on Why do you need a launcher? (asking older gamers actually) 2 weeks ago:
Depending on how you make the game some launchers can make sense. You can set disolay options before launching the game. Back in ye olden times some games would launch by default in a set resolution which often made changing that in-game difficult as it would be off screen. Also makes your first time launching it a better experience than some low-res garbage. Also, without a platform like steam they can handle updates.
That being said, I don’t think most modern games need those functions. Graphics engines are pretty good at getting screen resolution from your os (not perfect). And platforms handle patches and updates.

You interested in home improvement? Buy the shitty flat, slowly fix it up the way you like, and if you ever decide to sell, it’ll likely be worth a little more.
- Comment on PC game recommendation for my partner and I 3 weeks ago:
It takes two split fiction
These two were the top two favs of my wife and I last year. Played it takes two on our steam decks, and split fiction on our PCs. One of them is older and handled it great. Both pcs run linux.
- Comment on Finished Dying Light: The Beast, it was a good game. 3 weeks ago:
I will admit to enjoying splatting zombies as I drive through them. If they brought the parquor/fighting challenges back, I’d probably seek out the driving/splatting challenge.
- Comment on Finished Dying Light: The Beast, it was a good game. 3 weeks ago:
I agree with the truck mechanic. The map would have been too big without them. I also would have been cool with a fast travel mechanic from one unlocked safe zone to another.
My biggest complaint was arrow retrieval. It’s not just me, but it’s either bugged or only working worse than DL1. Arrow retrieval for me is 1 in 20. I loved DL1 bow/arrows. I’d run around and gather a big group, jump up somewhere high and rain down headshots, and retrieve most if my spent arrows.
- Comment on 4 weeks ago:
Yep, I think the only thing github actions has over jenkins is built in versioning. I wish in jenkins I could edit a pipeline and easily roll it back. Or even better have tags so if I break something the team can just use the previous tag while I figure it out.
- Comment on 4 weeks ago:
And the Actions in the marketplace aren’t?
My employers have only allowed a very small subset of each. It’s super frustrating having to reinvent the wheel constantly.
- Comment on 4 weeks ago:
You can install the github actions runner locally and use it, however all that does is eat your cpu cycles and prevent them from charging you. It doesn’t help you debug that blackbox at all.
- Comment on 4 weeks ago:
Not saying it’s perfect, but every job I’ve been at they’re migrating away from Jenkins. And they never have a reason to do so other than shiny new toy. Jenkins has it’s own problems, but I personally think it’s litterally decades ahead of github actions.
I do like runners better than the default jenkins run baremetal on the server, however the runners are too blackbox. I wish there was a debug toggle on runners. Pause at step, then provide a console into the runner. Some runs litterally take hours, so adding some debug output, and rerunning makes troubleshooting tedious.
- Comment on 4 weeks ago:
Huh, I was expecting more. There’s so much to hate with github actions!
- Sometimes you can pass a list, or boolean, but for composite actions you can only pass strings.
- Open bugs that github actions just doesn’t care to fix (I’ve run across about 3). Most recently, concurrency flag cancel_in_progress doesn’t work, and they aren’t fixing it.
- variables often not accessable until next step.
- API is slow to update. Running jobs querying themselfs won’t see themselves as running 50% of the time
- Inability to easily pass vars from one job to another. (output in step, output from job, needs, call) it’s 4 lines of code to get a single var accessable in another job.
- UI doesn’t show startup errors. Depending on the error if you make a dumb syntax error in the workflow file, the UI will just say failed to startup. Won’t tell you what happened, won’t even link it to your PR which kicked it off, you have to go hunting for it.
- Workflow Dispatch is a joke. Can’t run it in a branch, no dynamic inputs, no banners.
- Can’t run schedules in branches.
- Inconsistant Event Data labels and locations across triggers. Want to get the head sha? It’s in a different place for each trigger, same for so many things.
- Merge Queues have the worst Event Data. They run off a autogenerated branch, and so they fill everything in with actor=mergequeuebot and garbage that is unhelpful. Good luck trying to get the head sha and look up the real info like say the branch name you’re merging in. You have to parse it out from a head_ref’s description or some junk.
- No dynamic run names. Well, you can, but you have to call the api and update it. It’s a hassle. Why not just let me toss in an @actor, or @branch in the run name? That way when a dev is looking for their instance of “Build Job” from a massive list, they can actually find theirs.
I could go on. I do CI/CD for work and gha is the tool they are having us use. I have no say in the matter.

Jackbox is one of the worst offenders of this. Have to exit 4 times to actually exit the game.

If he didn’t read your message, he likely didn’t read messages from others. If his account is gone, it sounds like he deleted it like so many people are getting fed up with social media.

Fascinating that the browser using so much RAM is the OS’s fault, not the browser’s. Though, it using more RAM could be considered a good thing if it sped up page loading, but apparently that’s not the case with Win11.

The Anycubic Kobra 3 v2. There might be a plugin or something, I didn’t play with it much, but by default it’s not in the list.
- Comment on Linux Slicer 5 weeks ago:
I just installed orca yesterday! The appimage mostly worked, but it wouldn’t actually slice. I removed that, and found it in AUR, installed that version, and it’s been working great. It doesn’t support my printer, so I can’t print directly, but I can save the stl file and then copy that over to print.
- Comment on The dominoes are falling: motherboard sales down 50% as PC enthusiasts are put off by stinking memory prices 1 month ago:
Makes sense. CPU/Mobo/RAM typically go together in a rebuild. Storage, case, PSU, perepherals, GPU can often carry over between builds as they’re all pretty backwards compatible.
- Comment on what do y'all use for CI/CD? 1 month ago:
I hadn’t used gitea for long. I just had both running, and then cloned my repos one at a time manually. So long as I had the code, I didn’t really care.

This is what I was using till I switched to forgejo and never got around to setting up one of their runners.
