Clearly the dark mode is the modern one! Jokes aside, I just realized that there THREE menu options on that toolbar: hamburger, kebab, and waffle! I realize they do different things, but no wonder people are confused by and scared of computers. Also, now I'm hungry!

You can reinstall the OS without overwriting your home partition or any other data partition. That's always an option.

That's right. zsh is POSIX compliant while fish is not. That's the reason I switched to zsh from fish.

That's right, to add a bit more color, any of Proton mail paid plans allows you to use Proton Bridge (which runs locally and speaks IMAP to your mail client).

Are you trying the terminal commands with sudo? You could also try logging in as root user with the password you used during setup.

That's really cool! Looking forward to future updates, great work.

Yes, Gitea is a hard-fork of Gogs and started years ago. Forgejo is a soft-fork of Gitea when the primary authors of Gitea created a company of the same name to provide paid support (there's history there you can look up) but Gitea remains free and open source. Forgejo, supported by Codeberg, is a community fork and will upstream to Gitea.

Gitea/Forgejo is a great option, they recently even added build actions which are compatible with Github Actions.

It's still a good thing. It's an open specification, so anyone creating a design that is compliant can use software targeted at RISC-V. Just like you can buy USB-C flash drive from any manufacturer and use it with any OS that supports USB mass storage!

Racknerd.com has their Black Friday deals page still active and I've had good experience with their shared hosting and support!

I would recommend Tailscale for connecting to the home network. You could run it on each box if running it on the router is wonky.

Just to clarify the entire Logseq app is open source including the sync mechanism, the server backend to receive the sync endpoint and store the data isn't. I use Syncthing (FOSS and cross platform) to sync noted between my devices.

 

I was making some steamed iced Americanos (Aerocano) last summer and really enjoyed that. I also enjoy the citros (nitro cold brew with a bit of lemonade) and find them very refreshing! So I decided to combine both and made this.

Simple syrup made with honey, fresh squeezed lemon juice, a double espresso, steamed with crushed ice, and served over a giant ice cube. Dialing in the recipe but it's a delicious refreshing summer drink.

 

I've been seeing a lot of posts about people being stuck between server (lemmy 0.18) and client (Jerboa 0.0.33—35) versions (not installed from IzzyOnDroid and logged in) with Jerboa crashing. Here's a way to avoid that issue while still being able to log in and browse both Lemmy 0.18 or older instances.

  • Add IzzyOnDroid repo to F-Droid
  • Delete app data from Android app info (edit)
  • Uninstall current version of Jerboa
  • Install 0.0.33 IzzyOnDroid version of Jerboa
  • Set phone to Airplane mode
  • Open Jerboa and use the hamburger menu to add your account
  • Fill in server, username, and password
  • Turn off Airplane mode
  • Login

You'll get a old server version notification of your server hasn't updated but you'll be able to use Jerboa regardless of server version.

Hope this helps!

 

Fighter planes in the 1950s used the  Bendix Central Air Data Computer to determine air speed, mach number, altitude and so forth from pressure. It is electromechanical, using gears and synchros for its computations. Amazingly, it is modular and can be easily disassembled.

We separated the top layer from the rest for testing. The "interface" between the layers is two gears and an electrical connection. The electronic servo amplifier blocks come off too.

The backwards compatibility achieved by clever "simple mechanics" is very cool!
