I use 24h clocks and ISO 8601 dates almost always
Honestly, I’m better at organizing code than I am my actual life

Timezones make intuitive sense for humans
UTC / Unix timestamps make intuitive sense for computers
The issue is bridging the gap
I wonder if KDE connect could leverage the way Syncthing does device discovery and pairing
It works across networks, with no configuration
There’s a reason I run Linux, and root my Android
Because it actually feels like my device now
(And fixing issues is significantly easier, if you know where to look)
The downvotes aren’t surprising; it’s not a very popular idea
I still think it’s an idea worth exploring, though
Businesses won’t support Linux if they can’t sell something, and it gives us access to the code
We should have more “source available, but you still need to pay for it” licenses
Best of both worlds, the company still gets to sell a product, and we can inspect the source, or even submit PR’s (and maybe get a little kickback (but that’s pie in the sky))
Granted, it’s super easy to remove the license restrictions with the source available
Gimp is super useful
But the learning curve is insane (especially if you’re not already familiar with digital art/ photo manip)
I’m so glad i can use Linux on my work PC
It’s an explicit “opt-out” by the OP, such that their content cannot (legally) be used to train LLMs or such (Chat GPT, Github Copilot, etc)
Well, that’s what I assumed until i read the license terms. It doesn’t explicitly mention AI or LLMs, but it does say
You may not use the material for commercial purposes
Which i assume has the same limitations for AI training, for commercial AI
(I am not a lawyer)
While i also disagree with python’s tendency to use exceptions as control flow
Python is a pretty stellar scripting language. I wouldn’t use it for app dev, but it’s quite handy for the odd automation or CLI task
I’ve gone full linux both at home and at work. Thankfully, most of the tools we use are cross platform / FOSS. But in the odd case, I use KVM (the linux equivalent to Hyper-V) to spin up a windows VM
It has it’s issues (like graphics card pass-through), but it works pretty well
To be fair, it wasn’t something most of us were thinking about in the early 2000’s
Then Google became ubiquitous, to the point where we didn’t question it. Like cell service
Use a spectroscopic app on your phone
It’ll help you identify the source of high pitch sounds
I once noticed an external HDD was making a high pitch noise intermittently, as the LED turned on and off. It was bizarre
Edit: spalling
I feel like that would cause false positives
Then again, not that many people mess with their router
I recently broke the networking stack by uninstalling ca-certificates
I was using a slightly risky command to delete unneeded packages, and for some reason ca-certificates
was on the list
At least the fix was simple. Boot the rescue iso and reinstall them
It’s the same for me
Except, i try to give reddit as little traffic as possible, unless i need it for reference for something
We kinda do, with GPS satellites that have to correct their clocks due to the effects of gravity and speed
And communication with space probes
