Work in progress on hosting stl models in my homelab.
I Make My Own Field Notes (and it costs almost nothing) www.youtube.com
This is the first time I’ve seen or heard of Perry Daniels, I really like his editing style, it reminds me of good eats; the tone, tempo, the resesarch, the odd camera angles. I found this video very inspiring to go make something, My wife likes to keep field notes and sometimes has one for a few different tasks at the same time. It would be so cool to make her some custom ones for each. [1] Super creative notebooks that Perry made. [2] The use of the corner rounding punch makes it sooo clean References: [1]: https://dropper.waylonwalker.com/file/ea0dffdf-15e3-474f-8211-24da5d7e0acb.webp [2]: https://dropper.waylonwalker.com/file/2f6733f8-2f37-43aa-8e5f-844b319c8800.webp

Nate Berkopec (@nateberkopec) on X So many people are about to self-retire from our industry as a result of LLMs completing changing how coding is done. They hate it. They hate prompting, managing agents, reviewing. They want it to… X (formerly Twitter) · x.com [1] The world has changed it’s now different and there is no going back. You get to choose to adopt it or not. You get to choose your attitude. But at this point the agents write most average code, better than the average developer, faster than the average developer, and the average developer sucks at steering it. Over time we will get better at steering them, they will continue to get better at breakneck speeds for a long time. We will either learn restraint or they will get better at making that choice not to boil the ocean for us. I really do get this feeling of the self-retire. It’s so easy to let agents do everything, and it so hard to watch the world turn to slop around us. No one can simply answer a question in a meeting or an interview without referring to their clanker and its it’s so irritating from both ends. It sucks to hear no one understands the depth of projects anymore, and at the same time it sucks to g...
I Tried The OS Everyone Says Will Replace macOS youtube.com
It’s crazy how many people are discovering linux here and are like why would I use this, oh it has tiling, it has workspaces. No shit so does every other good desktop environment that’s has came out in the last 10 years. All of these reviews are missing the polish that you don’t recognize until you have done it by hand. Full disk encryption setup with noting more than a password. Agents property use pkexec to ask for sudo permissions with a message saying what they are running. Out of the box I get snapshots and boot into snapshot. If I like using agents and I add an API key, I get a crash agent when any application fails if I choose to click the notification to have the agent fix my issue. Themes has polish that no other distro can claim. There are many good looking themes that automatically theme so many if the applications. You can do all of this yourself and maybe you should if you really like Linux and want to understand. The magic is how it is all assembled. The community being built to make it work on so many different devices, with a taste for speed and design.

I’m playing with omarchy on an old laptop and decided I want to share it with my kids without sharing what I also set up as my sudo password.

Lsblk -f

Look for the one labeled crypto_LUKS

Sudo cryptsetup luksChangeKey /dev/nvme0n1p2

Then you will be asked for your sudo password, previous full disk encryption password, then the new one twice.

Now my laptop can be shared without sharing my private sudo password.

Touch dishwasher controls

Touch dishwasher controls that don't work with wet hands should be illegal, I'll be starting mine with dried on s**** now.

First Find your usb disk. You should be able to identify it by size and name using lsblk.

lsblk -o NAME,SIZE,MODEL,TRAN,RM,MOUNTPOINTS

Here I see my good ol Trans-It Drive. It’s not fancy, it wasnt even at the time it was new, but I have it and it works. next we run the disk destroyer dd to copy raw bytes right on to the drive.

Warning

This is a full reformat of the drive, nothing on the drive will be recoverable afterwards. I keep this drive around as a boot disk and it just changes distro occasionally.

sudo dd if=~/Downloads/omarchy-4.0.1.iso of=/dev/sdb bs=4M status=progress conv=fsync

Note

Don’t forget the bs, the default block size is so slow it will take an eternity to copy a linux iso on to a boot drive.

I wanted to give omarchy quatro a try, here is the session to get it.

Stl Text Lab Update

I’m building out a set of tools for 3d printing. Things that I have not found out there yet, they may exist, they may not. The first was Posts tagged: caps [1], Now I’m taking the core of that project and starting a new one. Not sure if it counts as an update when I have had a lack of really posting about it. putting text on stl # [2] [3] The full interface [4] focusing in on the text projection [5] References: [1]: /tags/caps/ [2]: #putting-text-on-stl [3]: https://dropper.wayl.one/file/0a8d8ea3-6dac-47e6-89a1-920adc38c98f.webp [4]: https://dropper.wayl.one/file/44034253-a102-41a5-8aa1-8477c8402581.webp [5]: https://dropper.wayl.one/file/b6134789-df54-42a0-bdda-589fb40fcc62.webp

politics in linux

IDK if I agree with DHH on politics, have not gone looking for his views, dont really care to. I can 100% get behind leaving politics out of work, foss, linux. Until he starts dropping that omarchy money on some non-oss linux manner I'm with it. I dont think there is a world in which you can completely disassociate yourself with everyone that has a different viewpoint than yourself. There will always be things that simply don't align with your lived experiences and that is okay.

when did openai bring back the hourly limit

Here I am cranking away with luna==max== tokenmaxxing on my **$20** plus sub trying to keep 3 running around the clock to burn those precious tokens when open ai comes back and re-introduces the 5 hour limit, I just got used to rocking only a weekly limit.
