    Perhaps, and that's not unreasonable in and of itself. But to do so in such a user-hostile manner? That's a bit over the top. A new minimal package, advertising it, and only then e…

    In a way I'm glad it's not mentioned. As a FreeBSD user, nothing is more disheartening than to find a cool and interesting project written in a great^1 language without any packagi…

    Rammed earth is the one that I find fascinating. But I've not seen or heard much about it's use in the Midwest where winters tend to wet.

    Except I cannot `go run ~/that/project/over/there` as the use of go modules means I have to change directory to be inside the package first. I'm not sure why that is exactly, but i…

    I ran into this on FreeBSD when cryptography started using a rust core for its work. Suddenly my jails needed a full rust build environment just to install this one package. It was…

    GNUCash is great, it definitely had a learning period for me. My biggest gripe is not with GNUCash but with the damn banks. The fact there isn't any API to download.u transactions …

    I wonder how full it'll be. The python bindings aren't complete. For instance it's impossible to add scheduled transactions. Which I'd investigating doing for tax depreciation on a…

    Their website is pretty crap. But. You haven't seen anything until you use their mobile app. It is definitely one of the worst thing I've seen. I mean Subaru's Starlink was way wor…

    Yes, this is 100% possible with the core ansible toolkit. I don't have a copy of any of our playbooks on this as I'm at home and it's late. But it's basically just a couple of task…
