Today I Learned

I want to go build these now, these are suspension setups I had no idea you could do in trailmakers.

keeping this in my back pocket for now. I just moved a few TB’s of data in the homelab and I am expecting a lot of duplication to show up.

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

FDUPES is a program for identifying or deleting duplicate files residing within specified directories.

Diun, looks like a very interesting tool to monitor for image updates, it does not make any change, it only makes notifications. This feels like an easy start to getting image updates started with low effort, keep git ops, but requires manual updates. I see this as a tool that would be a great start and pair well with automated image updaters to ensure they are working as expected.

Keel looks interesting, I might give it a try as a simple image updater. I’m unsure if it fits my gitops patterns though. I like to keep everything defined in git, I don’t like drift outside of that so Keel might not be the thing I want.

Damn he makes this easy. I did not know about hx-select. yes there is waste in requesting the entire thing every 5s, but damn that was easy to get life reload. I’ve only done very specific backend endpoints, built pages up from partials, made endpoints for partials. keeping this one in my back pocket.

I’m just kind of amazed that he could do this all in html without touching the backend or js, typically things like this require one or the other. Yes js is running, but no other js library I’m aware of lets you do this.

I recently discovered kubectl.nvim by Ramilito, and it’s truly impressive.

⎈ Streamline your Kubernetes management within Neovim—control and monitor your cluster seamlessly, all without leaving your coding environment.

This is a handy line to reset your admin password in nextcloud.

redis has all of their default self documented configs hosted here. You can pull the default redis.conf for any of the major releases.

If you’re into interesting projects, don’t miss out on xpipe-webtop, created by xpipe-io.

A containerized web-based desktop environment for XPipe

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

Access your entire server infrastructure from your local desktop

Using pbpaste for command substitution keeps sensitive or long URLs out of your shell history. Instead of typing git clone https://github.com/user/repo-with-long-name.git, copy the URL to clipboard and run git clone "$(pbpaste)". This prevents the URL from appearing in ~/.bash_history or ~/.zsh_history.

To get pbpaste working on both Xorg and Wayland, add this to your shell config:

if [[ $(command -v wl-copy) ]]; then alias pbcopy='wl-copy' pbpaste() { wl-paste; } elif [[ $(command -v xclip) ]]; then alias pbcopy='xclip -selection clipboard' pbpaste() { xclip -selection clipboard -o; } fi

The function approach (instead of alias) enables command substitution, while the quotes around $(pbpaste) handle spaces and special characters safely.

Now you can use it.

nice dataset to use for example / test projects. I’m using it to play with duckdb currently.

Good report, make notes later

looking into trying these Mill-Max pins on a handwired 3d printed build to see if I can get away from specialty hot swap sockets. Damn they aren’t exactly cheap, I really want the nice short ones but they start at $20 per 60ct and you need two per key, that adds up quick.

jina reader is a pretty sweet tool to convert a site to ai compatible text. There are other web to markdown types of tools, but the convenience of just adding r.jina.ai to the front of any page makes it so easy to grab for one page of docs.

the racked up 4 framework mainboards sound wild. connected with usb4 and 5gig ethernet. they said they can run big models quantized down from 600Gb to within the 512GB limit they have. This seems wild to bring this level of capability to such a low price point. It will be really cool to start to see demos come out.

Just starred monolith by Y2Z. It’s an exciting project with a lot to offer.

⬛️ CLI tool and library for saving complete web pages as a single HTML file

If you’re into interesting projects, don’t miss out on homelab-compose, created by Doomlab7.

A repository for the applications I run via docker-compose in my homelab

I recently discovered smallpond by deepseek-ai, and it’s truly impressive.

A lightweight data processing framework built on DuckDB and 3FS.
