I agree. I learned and used emacs and org mode for several years. With age, I now want simpler tools that do not need extensive configuration. Using mainly Spyder and VS Code for python coding

Yes it is correct. TLDR; threads run one code at the time, but can access same data. processes is like running python many times, and can run code simultaneously, but sharing data is cumbersome.

If you use multiple threads, they all run on the same python instance, and they can share memory (i.e. objects/variables can be shared). Because of GIL (explained by other comment), the threads cannot run at the same time. This is OK if you are IO bound, but not CPU bound

If you use multiprocessing, it is like running python (from terminal) multiple times. There is no shared memory, and you have a large overhead since you have to start up python many times. But if you have large calculations you can do in parallell that takes long time, it will be much faster than threads as it can use all cpu cores.

If these processes need to share data, it is more complicated. You need to use special functions to share data, like queues and pipes. If you need to share many MB of data, this takes a lot of time in my experience (10s of milliseconds).

If you need to do large calculations, using numpy functions or numba may be faster than multiple processes, due to good optimizations. But if you need to crunch a lot of data, multiprocessing is usually the way to go

if i remember correctly, i just replaced gitea with forgejo for image: in my docker-compose, and it just worked

it was a couple of versions back, so i don’t know if that still works

I don’t use multiple users or ldap, but miniflux supports many users. And based on this pull request it seems to have the necessary interface for ldap?

https://github.com/miniflux/v2/pull/570

I enjoy and recommend miniflux for rss reading. I have used it for a long time now together with flux news android app. I also use save integration with wallabag sometimes.

You could take a look at one of the universal blue distros next time you want to try some linux https://universal-blue.org/

I use bazzite on my gaming pc and bluefin on my laptop. It is immutable linux, but the devs made the defaults really nice (for me at least)

The first generation Hyundai Ioniq 5 had solar roof (at least some models).

The first gen ioniq 5 also had a very low payload capacity, with stories of families who couldn’t legally be in the car at the same time without being over the capacity.

The reason, I’m told, is that supporting the solar roof reduced the payload capacity a lot.

Also, solar cells on a car doesn’t make much sense like others have already said.

My thoughts too, what makes this alloy so amazing? It seems to me that sapphire is harder, and otherwise similar use cases

No mention/comparison to Sapphire in the article that I could see, disappointing.

Maybe it is the sintering process that makes it interesting, could be easier to shape maybe 🤔

I use debian now for the first time in years. But the new version just released, so we’ll see how long it lasts

I would recommend using one of the distros backed by a big company or have very long track records. They are less likely to break on updates, and have a higher chance of supporting any uncommon hardware you may have.

• Fedora
• Ubuntu
• Mint
• Pop OS

If you have new hardware (e.g. GPU newer than 6 months) you will probably have issues. Follow the recommendations from the hardware supplier, or use something arch based. I used Manjaro a while when I got new hardware.

Besides those tips, you should decide which desktop environment you like best. I prefer gnome, as I enjoy to spend time in apps and not on in settings. Others prefer customization. Have a look at https://youtu.be/09cYQJBgKEs?si=KX8FZeMRcMlPTzG2

I tried it briefly, but it doesn’t/didn’t support disk encryption. For my laptop this is a must, so I’ll wait until it is implemented and out of alpha.

I use Debian + Gnome without custom extensions and like it.

I don’t use too many programs, so in the overview I have Firefox in position 1, signal in position 2 and steam in 3. Then I use Win+1,2,3 to launch them.

For other programs, I hit Win and then start typing the name and hit enter.

For switching between windows, i use alt-tab or alt-(key above tab). If I have many windows or playing game in full screen, I hit Win-key once and choose the window i want.

I don’t use workspaces, never found a good flow. And I rarely miss a taskbar.

Hear hear. Not allowing spare keys doesn’t make sense. I have as many spare keys for my digital stuff as my apartment. But yeah, too few sites support that

Nice!

In my opinion, the arkham games got progressively better (except origins) - my favorite is Arkham Knight.

Have you looked into the Batman Arkham series? They have great stories, and feel kinda Zelda in that you get new tools as you progress. There are puzzles which I don’t always love, but maybe you do.

There is combat, but you can play on easy. And you upgrade your skills, but it is not very crucial to the experience.

And also maybe portal? Not very rpg, but environment changes as you progress.

I used yadm for a while and liked it. It is a git wrapper that makes git’ing your home folder for config files less messy

Now I don’t care so much for keeping settings anymore and use mainly vanilla settings, therefore I stopped using it

how do you use proxmox + debian lxc?

I use that too, but run services + caddy reverse proxy with docker compose inside

I’ve read that docker should not be used inside containers, but it has worked for me. I have wireguard in a VM, I think I had some issues there
