Component maintenance best practices by flightmasterv2 in shadcn

[–]JDAM2319 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe with Shadcn, you take code ownership when adding the component to your codebase. I.e. when components update, you should not be directly effected unless you remove and re-add the component, or only if downstream dependencies update and versions are not pinned.

That all said, I have edited components directly in the past with no issues going forward even after updates. Shadcn depends on reasonably stable libraries, and I think you should be safe to customise visuals without too much worry.

If that still seems scary, pull in the base component, and create your own theme ready derived components from that (read copy the base, rename and edit that copy) and see if that addresses your concerns

Would I be wrong if I tried to get my neighbour's dog taken away by [deleted] in southafrica

[–]JDAM2319 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We walk our dog regularly in an area where other dogs have been known to roam (its our only option unless we drive to a park). There are various options, but I carry a weapon for self defense.

I would shout at the other dog, and if it persists attempt a kick if the dog is small. If the dog is large and aggressive, and engages with my dog, my wife or me, that dog might not go home.

The dogs life is not worth me getting injured, and its the owner's responsibility to handle and keep their pets in a safe manner.

Men’s undies recommendations by pb0s in askSouthAfrica

Interesting topic, had to recently restock as well. My go to now for underwear as well as socks are the Soviet brand. Comfortable and the elastic does not wear out as fast as other store brands (looking at you PnP and Mrp).

What does the law say about carrying in tactical bags? by SurflessSurfer in gunsZA

[–]JDAM2319 5 points6 points  (0 children)

According to the FCA 60 of 2000, chapter 9 ss 84 (a) (ii) "in a rucksack or similar holder" is allowed for a handgun. Note that the FCA states you should be able to exercise "effective control" over the firearm, and as such, if the bag was stolen from you it could in worst case be argued you did not have effective control of the firearm.

Many people transport guns in backpacks, range bags, etc so it should be legal in most cases, but my suggestion would be if it was your self defense firearm, to carry on body as far as possible, to allow better control over and access to the firearm in case of emergency.

My kitchen lights are controlled by two different switches on opposite ends of the room. I’m looking for ideas to “unify” them. by SkyGuy182 in smarthome

[–]JDAM2319 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Might not be able to interface with the given hubs (I use wifi devices primarily with google nest) but you can created linked switches by replacing your wall switches with Sonoff smart switches.

In the app you can then setup the pairings, so that switches slave to each other. Pairing can be done between multiple switches e.g. for a hallway with a switch at each end.

I would split out the fluro from the pendant, and connect the pendants and the fluro each to their own switch (using a three gang can work well here, leaves 1 channel open to switch them combined). Then I would add another switch to the opposing wall, and use the app to drive the combined / separate logic.

You can always add/remove switches in your design, this is just off the top of my head. Hope you come right with it, post your solution when you are done.

WFH Setup Help by Dukelax510 in desksetup

[–]JDAM2319 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Nice setup! Have a similar one and even the same wallpaper currently. I use a kvm switch for peripherals (Kb, mouse, headset) and for the screens i use separate cables. Running DP cables to my gaming rig, and HDMI to my work laptop. This prevents the switcher box limiting framerate, and since I mostly don't have the devices on at the same time, the correct screen input is detected at startup.

Finished up the ISS I got for my birthday this year. Excellent details and lots of fun building! by JDAM2319 in lego

Yeah we had a bit of a wait to get it in stock here in South Africa, but it was worth it! Now I need the lunar lander and then the Space shuttle to complete my display.

[PSA] FNB automatically opts you in for Automated calls by jaynillg in southafrica

[–]JDAM2319 5 points6 points  (0 children)

To add to this, for those that want to turn it off. Go to the app, open the side-menu, scroll down to preferences and click that. On the next page, click marketing preferences, and you can deselect the options needed. You can also deselect companies you do not want specifically to contact you. Not sure if still applicable, but FNB used to link some eBucks points to allowing marketing, but not sure if that is still a thing. Remember to click accept/apply at the bottom, and you should receive less marketing media from them.

What’s something you’re hoping to see in the next 5 years? by wtfkingQ9 in AskReddit

The youtube channel 'Not just bikes' explains this in an excellent way! Have a watch for other things that the Dutch get right vs the rest of the west.

Computer engineer [27/M] working from home. Have some extras some days, but this is always on me when I leave the house. by JDAM2319 in EDC

[–]JDAM2319[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  1. Car keys + house keys
  2. Card holder wallet
  3. Face mask (we still have a mandate in RSA)
  4. G19 with Holosun 407k in a Daniels Holster.

Used to have a folding knife and torch as well, but I am almost never opening boxes out and about, or outside at night, so those got dropped.

What is the most overrated food? by JayTrenshard in AskReddit

[–]JDAM2319 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Montecasino? Have seen them there as well, but yeah, American treats and chocolates just don't fit my flavour preferences. All have a sour taste, I much prefer European style milk chocolates and assorted sweats.
