I’m not sure if any app syncs progress with eReaders, but I haven’t looked into it. Maybe KOreader can? Other than that Audiobookshelf works well with ebooks. I haven’t tested it with graphic novels, but it does handle regular ebooks (PDF and EPUB) just fine.
The Six Bullerby Children by Astrid Lindgren. I was maybe 9 at the time. I should reread it someday.
Translations can get you results ranging from hilarous to horrible. Especially crowdsourced.
Translation got me. It’s Dashboard in English interface.
Go to Cockpit > Libraries > Manage library, there’s an option to automatically refresh metadata from the Internet every 30-90 days.
I’d recommend picking something light. A thriller, light fantasy or whatever you prefer that doesn’t require too much attention. Michael Crichton is one author I often picked on road trips.
It does not match my description, unfortunately.
I’ve seen codebases that had old testValid2 style of test as well as fully fleshed out conversionReturnsNullOnEmptyString style. Working there made me apreciate proper naming. I know different test frameworks in different languages let you name the test separately, but it’s a bit of an effort duplication.
Anything that does under-the-cover low level magic is bad. The deeper the magic, the worse. Spring is the particular offender here with the lengths it goes so to make you not use new and never be able to debug why something happens. Or worse, why something doesn’t happen. We know how to deal with code, but not magic.
Now it gets funnier. The new 2.5 Gbps NIC just randomly appears on boot or not. I’ve spent half of the day to troubleshoot this and can’t figure out why.
It’s a complete experiment with cheap network gear from China. I have a HP T730 mini PC that serves as my router. I’m installing a cheap 2.5 Gbps NIC for LAN side. Then there’s a switch with 4x2.5 Gbps Ethernet and 2xSFP+ ports. My two main machines (PC and home server) are getting 10 Gbps SFP+ cards that I’ll attach with DAC cables.
OS is OpenWRT, because I’ve been connecting over WiFi to the Internet in both old and new locations. OPNsense just will not work with any wireless adapter I’ve tried. I will try agan once I route Ethernet to my room.
I’m curious if all of this works with cheap network gear. Today I’m configuring a fresh OpenWRT installation on the router.
I’ve just moved and I’m setting up my machines. NIC died in my DIY router just before the move so I’m upgrading to 2.5/10 Gbps at the same time.
Thanks. Plain Wireguard is an option I’m considering, but it’s also considerably more hassle to configure and maintain, especially as I connect more family members to my network. Headscale also has an extra layer of security in the form of ACLs, which I plan to use on top of basic firewall configuration. I do connect my personal machines with Wireguard, but I use one family member as a Tailscale/Headscale test subject.
As for SELinux, I’ve gave up on it already. It caused me so much headache over the years I disable it with a kernel parameter by default on all machines.
The same also applies to other things, like tools.
I’m working in Java ecosystem and there’s a noticeable trend to look down on people who don’t use IntelliJ Idea. I’ve recently joined a new project and I was strongly encouraged to use it. Therefore I’m currently 3 weeks into my 4th attempt over past 10 years to switch to this tool and it simply doesn’t work for me. I’ve been using Eclipse since around 2007, know it very well and it gets the job done. I will not claim that it is better than Idea. I just don’t think switching would give me enough return on investment. Especially now, as I’m still learning the new project.
Another reason not to switch is to avoid becoming dependant on an expensive tool. My current team is using Ultimate edition and I’ve noticed that they are really depending on the extra features.
I’ve tried it a few times, never stuck. I guess it’s just convenience, it is a well integrated piece of software, especially if you use both LXC and VMs. Personally I keep using virt-manager and Cockpit.
