Replace Manjaro for EndeavourOS and it's a fine chart

What dotfiles manager do you use? in c/linux@lemmy.ml

[-] manned_meatball@lemmy.ml 2 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

My own intricate system of 4 git repos to manage dotfiles, bash initialization, cli tools/scripts, and system state.

The last one keeps track of installed packages and "dotfiles" out of the home directory (system config files like /etc/hosts).

OSS tools for documenting database schema? in c/python@lemmy.ml

[-] manned_meatball@lemmy.ml 4 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

I don't have a specific recommendation (I could just give out names of tools that seem to match your needs but I can't really say I've used any), but in your place I'd reconsider your last requirement of "no connection to the DB".

In my view the best docs are the ones that take the least effort to keep up-to-date. Consider a tool that's able to dynamically list and extract schemas from your existing tables and generate a nice HTML or diagram that can be used as a quick and up-to-date reference. That will require little or zero maintenance compared to a manual diagramming tool. So I'd start looking there.

Depending on the project and usage I'd also consider exposing the database through an API. This makes documentation much easier too, as there are tools to auto generate API docs and you'll decouple your DB schema + access from its usage, which has its own benefits.

Is there a web archive equivalent to github repos? At least for the most popular ones.

I know there are hard copies in Svalbard's seed vault, but they're more for a one-in-thousands-of-years post-apocalyptic scenarios than this.

Which is one conspiracy theory that you think/believe may have some verity to it? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml

[-] manned_meatball@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Without knowing the "higher" reality, I'd still call it a simulation. An emulator is capable of replacing the "real" system it's emulating. Maybe that's your view on the topic, but I find it more likely the higher reality is more complex than ours because it contains ours. Therefore our reality could not be an emulation. Lots of speculation though.

Probably a stupid question, but will we ever have something like a microwave to make things cold? Is there a reason this can't exist? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml

For those using docker compose, how do you manage your stacks? (lemmy.ml)

I've been using Portainer to manage my homelab stacks from a single dashboard, which is more convenient than the CLI, but I'm not very satisfied with it so I've been looking for alternatives.

Portainer often fails to deploy them and is either silent about it, or doesn't give me much information to work with. The main convenience is that (when it works) it automatically pulls the updated docker compose files from my repo and deploys it without any action on my part.

Docker Swarm and Kubernetes seem to be the next ones in line. I have some experience with K8s so I know it can be complex, but I hope it's a complexity most paid upfront when setting everything up rather than being complicated to maintain.

Do you have any experience with either one of these, or perhaps another way to orchestrate these services?

Firefox keeps signing out of Google (lemmy.ml)

I don't know if this is a Firefox or Google issue tbh, but I'm getting signed out of Google more than once a day lately for no reason and this is getting really annoying. Is anyone else experiencing this?

Edit: I was able to narrow down to Nodium. As I visit a medium website with the extension enabled, I need to sign in again to Google. It seems they're a bit sloppy when deleting medium cookies.

Yesterday I checked if there were unknown devices in the security dashboard, but everything seemed alright. The supposedly signed out devices still show up as active sessions, which leads me to believe something's up between Firefox and Google.

And it's only happening with Google, for both accounts that I use. I disabled some extensions that could be getting in the way, but that didn't help. There's also no "you were signed out message", yesterday I was even using Google Meet when it happened and I just got kicked out of the meeting.

Lemmy's equivalent to Reddit's card view (lemmy.ml)

Lemming greetings,

I like to mainly scroll rather than click on posts to read them. Is there an equivalent to Reddit's card view that features images and text in the main feed so we don't (necessarily) have to open all posts we want to read?

Jerboa has a card view for mobile, but do we have something like this for desktop?
