If you’re into interesting projects, don’t miss out on blahg, created by cassidoo.

Cassidy’s blog template built with Astro and TinaCMS!

Reminder to tune in later, can’t watch now, but saw a link on Dave’s blog.

Cheers to the Unique brains dave. I can say I am 100% with Dave on all of these, except the clean environment thing, lucky Dave. If I have enough room to see what I am doing and walk around a mess, I probably wont even notice it. I’m so hyper focused on what is right in front of me that mess could be a huge pile of cash and i’d never see it.

I love me some styled rss, it’s how the OG internet was made to be. You choose what you want to read and when. There is no middleman aggregator inflating the reach of things they want you to see or suffocating things against them. It’s just you and your internet friends.

Cassidy has a quite lovely and easy to read rss feed, with an open source style sheet, that is part of her open source blog template for astro blahg, love that name by the way!

I first learned of styled rss feeds from shoptalkshow.com, specifically from Dave Rupert.

Dave uses a pretty bog standard styled rss feed with Dec 18, 2024

Today i got hit by this accessibility issue on my site. Low contrast links are not distiniquishable. I had not seen this error title before it was new to me, maybe I have bad memory or maybe it’s new to me.

I ended up dropping the background color of the site down a notch as I didn’t really care for the semi-dark brown anyways. I’m liking the near black bg-zinc-950 much better now.

Now I got that 100 A11y score in lighthouse.

Dropper is a place for me to drop files for quick posts like this.

Nice example of adding a healthcheck to fastapi, and integrating it with docker. Don’t forget to include curl in the install, nice touch.

new versions of just now come with color variables already set.

I found this nugget in thechangelogs justfile, it lets you add color to your justfile with variables quite easily.

Usage

Hurl was mentioned by @gerhard on the latest changelog and Friends. Looks like a feature rich easy to use testing tool that is tested via what looks like a config file.

Hurl is a command line tool that runs HTTP requests defined in a simple plain text format. It can chain requests, capture values and evaluate queries on headers and body response. Hurl is very versatile: it can be used for both fetching data and testing HTTP sessions. Hurl makes it easy to work with HTML content, REST / SOAP / GraphQL APIs, or any...

Today I discovered the Urllink function in bash from the ujust tool from ublue.it. Seems like a cool trick, but might not work everywhere.

Simple, modern and high performance file watching and code reload in python.

I’m really excited about turso, an amazing project by tursodatabase. It’s worth exploring!

Turso Database is a project to build the next evolution of SQLite.

limbo by tursodatabase is a game-changer in its space. Excited to see how it evolves.

Limbo is a work-in-progress, in-process OLTP database management system, compatible with SQLite.

For some reason the ublue ecosystem does not prompt you to set your hostname on install and you get a hostname like bazzite showing up. Looks like this is the fix.

hostnamectl –static hostname babyblue-aurora

Great examples for working with s3 buckets with ansible.

I came across cockpit-identities from 45Drives, and it’s packed with great features and ideas.

User and group management plugin for Houston UI (Cockpit)

cockpit-file-sharing by 45Drives is a game-changer in its space. Excited to see how it evolves.

A Cockpit plugin to easily manage samba and NFS file sharing.

On reboot of my opnsense router it did not tailscale up. I’m not sure if a key expired or what happened. The fix was to first enable ssh, then ssh in and run tailscale up.

In opnsense System > Settings > Administration > Secure Shell > Enable Secure Shell

ssh <opnsense ip> 8 # to select shell tailscale up

Follow the link to log in.

now uncheck secure shell to lock down the opnsense machine.
