THANKS! I will try to do this this weekend (kids and all, might not have the time. :-) )

there’s nothing to do or at sea

Just being out on the sea is by itself a worthwhile experience, in my opinion. At least the first time. like flying, it is super boring sitting in a plane for multiple hours. But the first time being above the clouds is cool.

I can understand that. I like webp because of its small size. I don't know how it compares in quality to other formats but jpeg adds up. If I can store in a small size with minimal loss, I'd like that.

Haha! Could be it. 😂

What's annoying with webp?

“hands-on” graduation project

Does hand-on mean supervised?

One has to wonder. They have the equipment, someone saw fit to buy and and then use it.

It is still probably one of the better ways to manage your passwords short of using a password manager. I don't know any hackas but it feels like a lot of effort, finding patterns in a list of passwords. When you have found a pattern, you must also figure out what the pattern is.

On the other hand, it could be a viable way given that there are some huge leaks with a lot of data. Perhaps someone is selling datasets of hacked patterns, it could be another way to find someones paypal password.

The OS crasching before Firefox seems weird. The OS should kill the offending process to free up memory for its own use. I wonder what went wrong.

This link has more information that looks relevant: https://askubuntu.com/questions/89219/is-there-a-difference-between-swap-and-cache-memory

Disk Cache memory: This are chunks of the physical memory, the RAM, used to store files. That way when a program needs to read the file, it's fetched from memory instead of the hard disk. This is done because memory is way faster.

Swap: This is a place on the hard disk (usually a dedicated partition) that is used to store programs or data that can't fit in memory, like when a program grows more than the available memory. SWAP is way slower than RAM, so when you hit swap the computer gets slower, but at least the program can work. In linux swap is also used to hibernate, or to move low used program out of memory to allow more space to the disk cache.

 

Title. I looked at how to configure anything and found Caddy to be much easier to use. Aside from a lot of docker images integrating with it, why is everyone using it? Edit: I meant Traefik

 

In the light of Firefox's changes to sharing data and the fact that there are only two browsers^[/s], here is a reminder about Servo, an "experimental browser engine".

Who know, it could be the next big browser (one can hope at least).

 

Using uBlock Origin, you can add your own filter. This filter will block any post with the text "Elon Musk" (not case sensitive), modify as needed.

lemmy.world##div.post-listing:has(span:has-text("/elon musk/i"))

div.post-listing is the element to block
:has(args) returns elements where args evaluate to true
span is the element with the title text
:has-text(needle) returns the element if it has the next needle, supports regex with \needle\ and remove case sensitivity with i

I just found out about AppImageLauncher, a package handler for AppImages. It organizes them, creates desktop files for you and handles updates and removal.

Integrate AppImages to your application launcher with one click, and manage, update and remove them from there. Double-click AppImages to open them, without having to make them executable first.

Much better than having to create all the desktop files myself, and having to figure out what to put in them for it to work correctly (I'm looking at you, qBittorrent and magnet links).
