For people who didnt understand the phrase like myself: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thin_blue_line?wprov=sfla1

Codeberg keeps calling the group the far right. Is there any political motivation or something else here? To me, it just looks like troll behavior. Is there more details about the attacks that I missed?

What is 40s day?

This looks exciting. I hope the transition goes well.

I would say to get automated backups running on the first few before you do them all. Thats a luxury we get “for free” with cloud services.

Note on firefly iii. I use it because I’ve been using it, but after using it for 4ish years, I dont really recommend it. The way I use it anyway, I think inserting data could be easier (I do it manually on purpose) and the graphs/visualizations I also wish were better. My experience with search functionality is also sub par. I would look at other alternatives as well, but I think its still better than not tracking finances at all. But I wonder if using a database client to insert data and python scripts or grafana to analyze the data would be better for me…YMMV

Good luck!

Vim to edit markdown files. I use syncthing to sync between phone and other devices. I edit using markor on android.

I’ve tried other software, but usually discover that vim keybinds dont exist (even as a plugin) or opening as plain old markdown isnt available, so I give up and try the next one. I’ve finally accepted that for me, vim and markdown is my endgame note taking solution.

I replaced my tabbyml code assistant this week with ollama+continue.dev. But I’m having issues with speed. I think this is because I switched from code qwen 2.5B (ish) to Deepeek Coder 9B (ish) and I think I’m pushing the limits of my GPU. Maybe I’ll spend today sorting out which models I want to use and which computers I want to use them on so I dont run into this issue (I’ve got ollama on 2 computers with 3 GPUs shared between them, for a total of 24GB VRAM)

Floccus just syncs, so whatever hasnt been synced would just wait in your bookmarks until the server was available.

I’m due to make something with ratatui. I’ve heard wonderful things about it. Cool project OP

When you do finally get into an installation (dual boot or live usb) just remember that this a whole new OS. And things that you thought about how “computers” worked was actually how “windows” worked. I just want to make sure you set expectations, because you could easily frustrate yourself when you start expecting things to behave a certain way.

Hopefully, you learn a lot from this experience. I’m excited for you!

Why did you switch from bitwarden?

I use borgbackup to create backups. I point backups to another home computer and borgbase.com. Borg itself is an amazing tool. I think you should learn how it works even if it doesnt end up being the best fit for you.

I’ve got a subset of my files encrypted and backed up using borg. It gets backed up to another computer in my home and then cloud storage via borgbase.com.

Thanks for sharing your brewing method. I had never considered this, and based on the last post, a lot of people don’t either. I’m glad you got it tasting the way you like!

Have you tried this?

If your typically coffee disolves in hot milk, then you might be used to instant coffee. What you’ve shown here is a bag of coffee beans and a bag of ground coffee beans. This requires a different method than with instant coffee.

The intent is to capture the parsing errors within a function, so the response could be capture in a single if let or match or is_okay condition.

If you use functions that return result (like your main, but with a different error) you could remove some of the if let blocks with let num = part2.to_string().parse::()?;. That might obfuscate some of the conditionals so the statements are one after another.

Cool project, let us know about the next iteration.

I use my exist credit card company, now. I still get my x% cash back. And the credit card company arent the people Im trying to hide from in this case. Thanks for letting me know.

And how do you like yew? Long ago I used seed.rs, which was more like ELM than react. But I think that project has since gone unmaintained. I also tried yew when I think they were in the middle of a huge API transition. Do you think its easier to write in yew than it would be in react/vue/svelte?

Cursed tech stack and image. Project looks cool. Can you elaborate more on why you used rust for front end and python for backend? I would assume rust would have been more applicable for back end work. Then again, Im not familiar with fastAPI.
