Agreed.

I once worked on a team in a company who had to ssh into a server and do all the development work on that server. So all we could use was either vim or emacs. I had my vim decked out with all the plugins and customizations, and it was fine.

But after you get back to using an IDE (especially an IDE with a vim plugin), it’s hard to go back

Ask Lemmy:

Yeah it would be screen mirroring

Yeah, there is a software you can install on the Pi called scrcpy (which is a terminal utility), you can get a GUI for it with guiscrcpy

Here’s the link going over it: here

And for the GUI part here

I haven’t use it, so not sure how well it works. There could also be other software to support casting that I’m not aware of.

Thanks for the clarification! That does make it more interesting than just an ActivityPub clone

They’ve been going on about that for years now, and last I heard about it, they said it would cost too much to implement or something like that? Can’t remember now.

How is this different to ActivityPub protocol that the fediverse uses? Seems like its trying to accomplish very similar things? Like how KBin and Lemmy can interact with the same content and have different layouts, apps, etc.

I suppose it’s good to have alternative protocols for decentralized communication, but wouldn’t it be better to focus on one and put more effort into improving it?

As far as I’m aware, the only way to get a private streaming box would be to use a RaspberryPi. You could use Google Chromecast but then you get Google, Nvidia have Nvidia Shield but that costs a lot and I’m not familiar enough with it to know if it has spyware.

With RaspberryPi, all you really need is to just install the Raspbian OS (they have detailed instructions on their website) and you basically have a mini PC with an Internet browser and all that. So you could just do that?

There is also this Chromium DRM compliant browser which supports Hulu, Amazon Prime, Netflix, etc. Which you can install on the Pi for streaming support. Here’s the link

Just stay away from Chinese made Android Boxes. Linus did a good video covering those here

They are very similar. The main differences are:

• LogSeq uses bullet points. Obsidian is just pure markdown
• LogSeq is open source. Obsidian is closed source
• LogSeq has a predefined structure to it (folders). Obsidian allows you to have whatever folders you want

Personally, I use LogSeq for my day to day work. Primarily because I prefer the bullet point approach when taking notes. But some people would prefer writing long continuous text with Obsidian.

So to each their own. If you’re interested, try both (they’re both using markdown, so you can transfer between the two). I went back and forth a few times before settling with LogSeq

So like LogSeq, Obsidian is a free note taking application which stores notes in Markdown format locally on your PC. Unlike LogSeq however, it is not open source and is designed more for long form text (LogSeq is more bullet points).

You can check out Obsidian here

Same! I’ve become like a walking advertisement for LogSeq at work. Its great

Ever since I discovered LogSeq and Obsidian, I stopped checking out other note-taking software

Its self documenting code, just like the rest of my spaghetti code.

The code

package main

import "fmt"

func main() {
  fmt.Println("Hello World")
}

Just gonna leave this little gem here, enjoy.

This is where VPNs come into play. You can ban me all you want, I’ll just come back with a different IP.

I’d much rather sink money into a bunch of VPN providers than disable my adblocker or worse, pay YouTube.

The difference is, in the job interview you’re writing it from scratch yourself. On the job you have to take over from the guy who left 10 years ago and that button was designed in such a way that resizing it will add garbage data to all tables in the database and also send an email to all your customers telling them to switch providers.

I bought a 4090 just to run LLM and Stable Diffusion, with some occasional gaming. But if you’re just use it for ML, get whatever is cheaper (ironically I found 4090 cheaper than 3090 when shopping around).

The Firefox addon is so good for it, its open source and just runs a basic Python script in the background locally. Very handy.
