That also cracked me up. Great phrase

xbps as of recent

Packages that cannot be accepted upstream: themes, icons, fonts, packages that are “too new” (think Zig 0.16 for example), anything that packages binary blobs, anything that maintainers refuse to accept like Brave browser, or even your own tools.

Just off the top of my head. The reason I started that repo in the first place was to get a Noctalia package that I can install across multiple machines.

Didn’t have any issues installing the Nvidia driver and using Steam from flatpak.

Been using Void for a while now, at home and at work, about 4 installs in total.

I have my own packages repo which follows the official void-packages closely where I keep my custom templates, they get built by CI and signed, so on my void machines I simply add my repo to xbps config and get all my junk. Here’s the repo: https://code.hosaka.cc/hosaka/vast-packages

In addition, I rsync the official repo to mirror it on my server that syncs every few hours and my custom packages are build against that (see the CI workflow in the repo). This also has a benefit of being able to update the packages on my machines from my own mirror at much faster speeds.

It took me a while to get things setup this way, but was worth it in the end.

I’m in exactly tha same boat, but with 16 years of exp. I’ve considered investing into aviation school, but realistically it takes a couple of years and then a few more before you start earning well.

I’ve been using coolify for in house services and databases at work on our own hardware, it works pretty well, albeit a bit difficult to get the initial setup going. So far it does the job.

This was a really good read, I love how the author explains the whole story from the start and how it all started from a bit of tinkering with the hardware just for fun and grew into something bigger.

Does it support account syncing? I’m using vanilla Firefox+user.js now with a self-hosted sync server.

We need jungle I’m afraid

Yeah, didn’t catch your sarcasm there :D

For functions that want to accept variadic arguments in C/Cpp

This looks neat, so the repositories are distributed across the people who run the radicale nodes? I’ve been self hosting forgejo for a while, wouldn’t mind trying this out just for fun.

In reality meta quest games use their Platform SDK (for things like user entitlement check, match making, leaderboards, DLC) I’m not sure it’ll be an easy port for Quest games because you’ll be missing Meta’s services that run on the quest itself.

Currently just alpine with docker compose, but I initially wanted to use podman, this was before quadlets were a thing and I found it very cumbersome to configure the networking between containers, also recall having to use kustomize as an extra step, so I gave up and went with compose.

Now there are quadlets with podman, which seem to do everything I need but require systemd. I’d be happy to switch from openrc to systemd just for the sake of using podman.

I’ll finally be able to switch from docker compose to podman with quadlets on my server running alpine

GitLab LFS storage is mad expensive. I regret buying into it… We have an unreal engine project and the assets cross over 20GB, not raw assets mind you. I’ve self hosted perforce before and should have stuck with that

You would probably want to start with the openai-agents SDK in that case.

Forgejo has auto mirroring built in, it’ll periodically sync the repos you add. The disadvantage is you have to add them manually. Initially I wanted a list of my started github repos synced to my forgejo instance and just added them one by one. A simple cron job might be enough to do that, but last time I checked github didn’t have an API for fetching started repositories.

Mainly use it as a documentation search for APIs I’m not familiar with, or when I’m not sure what options there are to approach a problem. I work with unreal engine a lot, so I’d get a few pointers from an LLM first, then go read the source code of those APIs and inplement the rest myself.
