@prologic So, this flag isn't doing exactly what you thought it does? Or is there a bug in the implementation itself?
@prologic Ta! :-)
Add support for skipping backup if data is unchagned · 0cf9514e9e - backup-docker-volumes - Mills 👈 I just discovered today, when running backups, that this commit is why my backups stopped working for the last 4 months. It wasn't that I was forgetting to do them every month, I broke the fucking tool 🤣 Fuck 🤦‍♂️
There are now two (_recentish_) quotes I really like these days:

> The smartest person in the room is not the one with all the answers—it’s the one who’s brave enough to ask the dumb questions

and

> The kindest person in the room is often the smartest
@lyse Thanks! Fixed the typos. The links will stay broken for a bit because my online man collection is busted. It's on the list. :-/

Based on a recent study of the brains of mice I estimated the human brain to have 200B cells/neurons and 50,000T connections. We have several orders of magnitude to go before we reach that kind of scale with these fucking stupid Big LLMs 🤣 And the best part of all? 🧐 It is estimated that the human brain only consumes the equivalent of 5 Watts of power !!! 🤣🤣🤣

@bender You will be pleased to know that yarnd now only consumes ~60-80MB of memory depending on load 🤣 And bugger all CPU 😅~
And one more.
Reply?
Hmmm? Test?
@lyse Nice sunset 😎

@bender Did you see the Singaporian president's speech on this whole nonsense?! 😂 (trade wards, tariffs, free markets, etc)
@bender @ionores Yep, it's extremely seldom that a photo turns out looking better than reality. Very rarely does that happen. But basically never with sunsets. ;-) Maybe once a leap year I'm very surprised to wonder how that subject wasn't better in person but actually on film.
Glad gopher is alive!
Hi from Portland OR
@bender Totally agree with you 100%. No photo could ever replace the experience of seeing it live on site!

I once saw a paper, then lost it, I wish I could find it again, that had kind of a satirical tone, it was about teaching and went something like "how to be liked by your students without teaching much"

I have nightmares about this. I hope my students like my classes and also learn stuff, but I'm really never sure. Some like the classes, some learn stuff, but, am I optimizing for them liking the classes while learning less?

@lyse now, that's what I am talking about! Having been witness of similar sunsets, I would wholeheartedly agree that a photo (no matter how good!) is a poor replacement for not being able to spectate it in person.

@bender Just like you, I change the wallpaper on my PC more often! However, @prologic's "Lake View" photo is perfect for my laptop, where I spend quite a bit of time.

A mate and I met at the scout yard to prepare an upcoming workshop. Boy did we have an amazing sunset when we left. The photos don't reflect it, it was a hell lot more beautiful in person: https://lyse.isobeef.org/plaetzle-2025-04-11/

ABC Australia is reporting of a potential market manipulation in the US. Potential? I would call it almost certain. For as much as I would like not to be dragged into politics, it is rather impossible these days.
@anth Hahaha, for a second I thought that you implemented word splitting according to Swiss (.ch) rules. :-D

Btw, both manpage links string(2) and getields(2) (it's missing an f) point into nothingness: http://a.9srv.net/src/wordwrap.2.html

I can't help but notice line 9: http://a.9srv.net/src/wordwrap.c

@bender Fair enough 🧐
@bender Technically no but we'll talk more about this 👌
Yup, it is certainly something on the codebase here. /end of test
@bendereapl.me let's see how this mention comes out. I noticed that @kat's pod doesn't have this problem. That is, their mention to you works fine.
@prologic so, the twtxt is "lost"? Don't rush to reply, I think you deserve your sleep time! Have a nice weekend!
@prologic in this case it isn't vendor lock-in. I believe they do it because the carrier "eats" the costs (the interest part of the instalments). The phones are fully unlocked.

I will return the two we got for parents, and re-buy them again, this time on an instalment plan. Why pay $2,000 up front when you can split the cost in convenient monthly payments, all interest free, right?
@bender No insertion.
@prologic interesting. What would happen on a hash collision? 🤔
@bender It's a bug in the UI for sure. The hash is the primary key.
@prologic is it twice on database, or simply rendering twice? If you manually expunge it, will it affect the yarn?

@bender No, haven't figured out the reproducer yet 🧐
@prologic yay! One down! 😅 Have you figured out the single duplication issue?
What's gossip, gopher fishers? :)

Mais um debate comentado de forma diferente por não ter sido transmitido em canal aberto.

BE e PAN estão próximos em muitos temas, pelo menos em teoria. Mas há diferenças: BE rejeita a descida do IRC que o PAN propõe. Na habitação PAN propõe muita coisa, BE propõe tudo isso e mais, mas isso não resolve o problema imediato, e por isso quer também os tectos às rendas. PAN desperdiçou oportunidade para explicar porque é que não concorda.

Novidade (para mim, e pode ter sido por distracção) só uma: o #PAN defende comboio em todas as capitais de distrito (ideia proposta antigamente pelo #PS e depois varrida para debaixo do tapete).

1) Spinumviva: IL não quer falar sobre isso, PS diz que se percebe porquê.

2) governabilidade e Milei: PS faz o que fez. IL é a favor do Milei mas não quer falar da Argentina.

3) moderação: PNS não é nem nunca foi radical. Já a IL quer privatizar tudo.

4) Trump: IL acha que não se deve responder às tarifas com tarifas. PS acha que governo PSD em gestão devia ter falado com PS antes de decidir o pacote que anunciou hoje.

5) Milei outra vez: IL diz que temos de cortar a AP e privatizar coisas como a RTP. PS diz que não precisamos de motoserras e diz que as contas da IL não batem certo.

6) política fiscal: IL diz que temos de pôr as empresas a crescer e baixar o IRS. Em vez baixar o IVA, IL quer baixar os impostos às empresas para que as famílias tenham mais dinheiro O-o . PS em vez de reduzir o IRC (que não faz nada à economia) quer com menos desse custo fazer todas as suas medidas já anunciadas.

7) defesa: IL diz que investir mais em defesa é uma oportunidade e pode ser feita sem afectar negativamente os portugueses. PS defende que lá fora temos de ser consensuais.

@bender @movq Thanks! I'll think about switching to higher resolution teasers in the future. The reasoning behind the thumbnails is to avoid wasting traffic. Maybe folks in the outback or on expensive mobile networks appreciate it. Yeah, they could disable images in general.
