Also, here in Belgium, vegan Gouda is literally cheaper per kilo than actual, cheap Gouda.

Isn’t the point that Ian sounds like it should start with an E, where Isle sounds like it should start with an I?

If I do that, the seasoning comes right off lol. Even using one of those green scrubbers (but the blue, non-scratch) makes that happen.

Claude directly has over 1100000 lines of direct code contribution. It has pretty much the same amount of code committed directly as the creator has.

His entire coding history before Claude consisted of changing readmes or searching and replacing project name text or modifying a dead link to his own link.

Suddenly in 4 months, without ever producing actual code before, he becomes a very competent coder enough to tackle mCAD, a notoriously difficult coding task that takes many many years with teams to make meaningful progress on?

That is vibe coding.

And his co-contributer “gianlucafiore” is exactly the same story. Has literally only made issues until LLM coding got released and then late 2025 (December) switched to making commits that he badly copied from an LLM such that some of the commits are literally one full line (as direct in-file working of the LLM wasn’t as accessible then)

That is vibe coding.

So the top 3 contributes are

1. An LLM
2. Someone that only has committed any code via an LLM
3. Someone who has only made issues before beginning with an LLM and submits clearly generated code

There is likely no human-made code in the entire project besides changing a couple links.

Huh, I have come across their posts on random big communities multiple times and I don’t remember ever seeing porn or anything even nsfw (besides text, but that is debatable if text deserves an NSFW tag)

It is literally a cloudflare tunnel/ tailscale type thing but contained in the app. The only real difference is that it is bundled in the app, so less setup and in exchange, Plex itself is free to harvest all of your data.

Picos are very bad for battery applications. If you do end up doing this, make sure it is mains-powered like your original thought.

Esp32s, MSP430s, and nRF chips have sleep currents down to around 5uA or less.

Picos have sleep currents of 1-4mA. That is 1000x higher and the battery will only last for a few days instead of a few years.

It seems as though codeberg and github were deleted or made private and their website is just a “go away” webp now so I can’t search through the blocklist

Hey, even if people don’t approve of AI software (or baby-killing village-starving Nestle), turning something open source local-controlled instead of cloud SaaS locked down bullshit is always a good cause!

Also, accounts. Long promised for community or lowest tier then integrated only in the expensive tier of photoprism IIRC, which made me switch because that only then works for individuals.

Except for database versions in 2.7.5->3.0.0

But one docker compose change and it migrated seamlessly.

I don’t think Italians could handle a week long game lol.

Well to be fair, the US declaration of independence is quite explicit about the right to revolution being one of the inalienable rights. They spent I think around 20 written lines talking about it.

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.–That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, --That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.–Such has been the patient sufferance of these Colonies; and such is now the necessity which constrains them to alter their former Systems of Government. The history of the present King of Great Britain is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute Tyranny over these States.

Of course, it doesn’t mean their causes were just or their intentions were good or even that they were much more than an angry mob, but America was literally founded on the idea that a corrupt government should be overthrown by force. What is bad, how it is bad, blah blah blah depends on where you sit and if you value human life or human hierarchy.

Also literally every cafe does this sort of thing that it is called margin spreading and accounting for labor and food waste costs. Loss leaders being recouped by high margins of other products is literally how almost all stores work.

I hate Starbucks for many reasons, but go after them for their union busting, genocide support, or numerous illegal or unethical things, not a nothing sandwich.

But that is why here in Belgium it is mandated that doors have a minimum gap for ventilation while also keeping the door closed and also outside ventilation

Snapmaker seems to be Bambu from a few years ago, promises, good hardware, but all proprietary and as locked down as possible hatdware-wise. I am fairly confident they will follow a similar path even though they have made some software source - available.

Hell, I find the easiest workflow for me is literally on one computer:

• scan with skanpage
• save
• drag/upload via web UI to paperless server

Then you automatically have a 2 location backup (and 3 with 1 off site if you have a backup server implemented) and it is very simple for family to pick up.

Hollow earth? What sort of new-age conspiracy is that? True believers know the earth is a turtle.

Oh no, mullvad started advertising a bit 😱

Only print ads though IIRC

Wanted to setup opencloud but it doesn’t work without 3-4 additional containers and CNAMEs on the domain.

I simply wanted to spin it up locally and test it out, but it doesn’t accept any admin credentials whatsoever and wiping every file to completely restart leads to the same behavior.

If the simplest bit of startup flow local first time login doesn’t work, then why would the rest and why would I trust it? Also it isn’t a certificate error with not setting up SSL or something because I also tried it on my domain with all the correct certificates and got the exact same behavior. It doesn’t even allow you to try a different admin password when it claims that the last is wrong. You get one try and otherwise have to wipe the entire volume.

There are issues on github for it and workarounds with very YMMV results, for me none of it worked.
