  • Well, where?

    Jump

  • emacs ofc. I'm sure there's an emacs implementation of heaven

  • Underappreciated top

  • Why are good features never made defaults in some tools? We can make it look almost like htop and it feels like the defaults couldn't be worse. It's such a waste to hide good features behind bad defaults.

  • Linux terminal with text selection

    Jump

  • Same, I have most of those, but selection with shift

  • PC Master Race

    Jump

  • idk about that. I have both and I still prefer using the desktop at home because I can get a much nicer performance out of it than connecting an external display to the laptop. Even for ordinary things like watching a YT video it makes a difference.

    people might not need it, but no one who's not a game developer needs a console either

  • How often do you update software on your servers?

    Jump

  • everyday to once a month, depending how often I use the server

    IME usually waiting longer to apply larger updates causes more issues than smaller and more frequent ones

  • PC Master Race

    Jump

  • some $2k beats a console and you get more games, cheaper price, and can do whatever you want with it

    so if you're already getting a computer, it just makes sense

  • Why do some people fork repos but make no changes to them?

    Jump

  • you compare the number of forks with the number of contributors

    forks are almost always higher, not just higher, but often by a factor of 10

  • lol the readme reads "a not so terrible" but the repo description reads like

    A terrible web ui and RPC server for yt-dlp

  • Mistakes I see engineers making in their code reviews

    Jump

  • Good, I just partially disagree with the 5-6 comments per PR. The number of comments is usually proportional to the number of changes. 10 comments in a 300-line PR seems excessive. 20 comments for 5k lines doesn't.

    Sure I can just shrug it and say I'm not reviewing a 10k line PR until it's split, but that's not very helpful either. So I just leave more comments and if they think it's too much, I'd encourage them to open a smaller PR next time.

  • that marmot

  • all employees at the good day factory already passed of old age

  • thats all

  • ooooooh that little bump, right

  • thats all

  • I need to find one first

  • Self-Host Weekly (24 October 2025)

    Jump

  • yeah, I adopted it last year and I probably wouldn't have picked it today. I'm glad that despite of that, in the end it's just an S3 compatible storage and, thanks to that, it's not too difficult to replace.

  • Know the difference

    Another day of AWS outages

    Jump

  • tbh it's still more uptime than I can manage myself

  • The fucking HP printer lives better than I do

    Jump

  • that's why cartridges don't last

  • The AWS outage hit us during the day in Australia. I didn't notice because I run my own server, btw

    Jump

  • We do it for an immediate benefit not for some hypothetical apocalyptic scenario result of a half baked conspiracy theory.

    It's a bit like calling people who camp in the woods, fish, or rock climb "preppers" because these would be useful skills after the modern civilization.

  • this is one of the most misused templates

  • As Microsoft Forces Users to Ditch Windows 10, It Announces That It’s Also Turning Windows 11 into an AI-Controlled Monstrosity

    Jump

  • Yeah, it's BS. I scrutinize PRs to let peers realize that it's often not worth the time when they have to redo basically everything the agent wrote in the first place. There's been some truly lazy PRs...
