    I use Infuse on the Apple TV and it’s great. I’m not sure how the free version of it compares, but they have a lifetime license for it that I believe is about $100. Definitely wort…

    I see a lot of people mentioning Pydantic here, but you should take a look into TypedDict. It provides a type structure ontop of a plain dictionary, and sounds like exactly what yo…

    I once had a VPN utility that HAD to be closed with a Keyboard Interrupt in order for it to shut-off properly, so my systemd setup for it didn’t work. I ended up making bash aliase…

    One problem I have with switching exclusively to Yubikeys(or similar) entirely with no other 2FA option, is the lack of support in embedded browsers. I’m not entirely sure what the…

    I’m arguing there’s not a benefit, it’s just the service I have to use for reasons outside of my control.

    Throughout my company’s pursuit of moving everything under the sun into AWS I have done my best to keep everything able to be migrated, we have some systems which are just, simply …

    Are smaller plugins like this potentially an easy place for first time contributors to work in? My Rust skills are certainly very lacking but if there is some big list of arbitrary…

    I maintain a few open source libraries and we have recently switched to Ruff from Flake8 exclusively because of the lack of pyproject.toml support. These are relatively speaking sm…

    I used to be really involved in RuneScape private server development in the early to mid 2010’s. It is to this day some of the most enjoyable programming I’ve done. The challenge p…

    Sorry for a late reply, I am generally using ARM based images and I have run into VERY few things that availability was a problem for. I’ve never seen anything based on Debian or A…

    I used a Framework for a while, and I’d definitely give it my vote for the best Linux laptop I’ve used(Also PopOS has the best out of the box support for most laptops in my experie…

    As someone who maintains Postgres 9.2, 9.4, and 9.6 databases. No, they do not. (It is not my will that these databases aren’t on newer versions, I would very much like them to be)…

    A little over 2 years I came into a very similar situation, however in my situation we had none of the original developers working on it anymore. At least from a technical perspect…

    I made the comment that some of our web portals could run off of a raspberry pi perfectly fine, and I wasn’t necessarily suggesting we go do that, but merely trying to get the poin…

    I work at a VOIP services provider and we operate multiple brands which are companies we’ve acquired over several years. One thing that has rang true of every company we’ve acquire…

    Well I guess I’m not saying it doesn’t ever have a place, it’s nice to have a universal means of communication, but for regular ongoing communication within a given subset of peopl…

    I can’t imagine actually using SMS, iMessage or not. It’s just an inferior experience to basically any other chat solution. The only thing I actually use SMS for are things that ma…

    I as well am very surprised by how many people seem to have had issues with it. I have used Manjaro and Pop OS on it, and encountered basically 0 issues on either one. The only iss…
