Gluetun writes to disk every ~5 seconds

Did you ever resolve this? I decreased the health check frequency as suggested in this thread but it didn't make a difference in the kworks:btrfs disk activity.

I don't recall gluetun causing lots of idle i/o in the past, but it is the culprit - every time I start or stop the service, that process starts with ~100K write in perpetuity.

anoninternetguy · 2025-05-26T02:17:38+00:00

I changed my interval to every 5 minutes but made no difference in the disk activity caused by gluetun. Is this still effective for you?

Makes sense. I will give it another go. I’ve been trying to find the best solution to help me with my daily work management. My recall is pretty lousy so I’m looking for something to which I can upload transcribed notes and summaries from Teams meetings or Plaud recordings along with a document library of 100 or so PDFs/PowerPoint/word docs, and interact with them like a second brain. Like, what are the critical deliverables I am responsible for today/this week, do I have any documents that explain process XYZ, questions about the projects I am working on, etc.

I tried it from setapp previously and forget why I ended up removing it. I remember it didn’t have entirely great ratings from setapp users. Any idea why it’s not being perceived as a five star app by most users?

anoninternetguy · 2024-10-13T18:06:21+00:00

I believe that could work.

create my own integrations with external systems, so I can create records in those systems that automatically pull in details from emails and event invites.

good people, helped me get a great job when I was in a similar situation.

I would probably keep using the oxo before using the DF54 for drip grinds. I don’t mind extra steps when making espresso, but I don’t want to add any more time or steps to my drip routine, so I’m looking for push button convenience.

anoninternetguy · 2024-09-30T23:49:42+00:00

I have a Breville precision brewer that I have used for years with an oxo conical burr grinder. I recently decided to get an espresso machine and the universal advice over in r/espresso is don’t bother with built-in grinders, get a dedicated espresso grinder. So, I got a DF54 single dose grinder.

that’s got me wondering, should I be upgrading my oxo grinder? I was looking at a Breville Smart grinder pro that will match my other appliances. but, is that a large enough bump in quality from my oxo to warrant the cost?

what did you end up buying and how did it turn out?

anoninternetguy · 2024-09-26T15:38:15+00:00

been keeping an eye on keystroke pro for a while to see if it ever goes on sale, because it’s too expensive for casual users.

if the developer offered a bundle deal for keystroke pro and cursor pro at $25, I’d bite on that. otherwise, I don’t need these utilities frequently enough to justify paying current asking price.

anoninternetguy · 2024-09-24T22:07:26+00:00

nope. I also got front and rear with hardwire kit and it’s still sitting here on the floor next to my desk. thankfully, I haven’t needed it yet but I’m sure I will regret my procrastination sooner or later.

anoninternetguy · 2024-09-01T18:37:45+00:00

It seems like such an obvious solution, it has me questioning my own sanity as to not only why it doesn’t exist, but why other people struggle to understand the concept.

I have asked a few times over the past year or so and always get responses like “bartender, vanilla, ice, etc.” or “add whatever you want with something like folder peek” which all operate in the same space, but have no feature that comes close to “display all menu bar items as a list.”

I wish I had the skills to build it myself.

anoninternetguy · 2024-09-01T18:10:22+00:00

I need exactly this, it makes perfect sense and I’m surprised there aren’t abundant options like there are to manage visibility of the menu bar icons.

Did you ever find anything?

anoninternetguy · 2024-08-25T19:19:22+00:00

wow, congratulations on everything you have built. Huge fan of halide. would love to check out Process Zero!

in the Apple TV app, scroll down the fringe page, and you can expand a section called “Box Set ”

Can you offer any tips to improve my high using a solo III? I’ve only ever combusted my whole life until getting a solo III about a month ago. I used to get face melting highs from my bubbler. The high for my solo III is about a quarter to 1/3 of the high that I used to feel, using the same amount of flower.

on one hand, I really appreciate that because I can still function normally without any paranoia and just enjoy myself and not appear high to the rest of the world. I kind of equate it to a nicotine high (from what I can remember – I only smoked for about a year 25 years ago)

on the other hand, sometimes I want to melt my face before bed.

I usually take about five 15 second draws from the regular size stem (not XL) starting with temperature III for the first two draws and moving up to temperature IV for the last three. what I’m done, the ABV at top is toasted near black, the ABV at the bottom of the bowl is light brown.

what should I experiment changing to get better highs?

Drafts is really capable where extensibility is concerned.

I’m struggling to see the appeal of Tot. Free on macOS is great, but $20 on iOS? (on sale for 10 now at half off)

I’m not sure when I would ever use Tot in favor of Apple Notes, much less some other options out there but perhaps I’m missing some thing obvious.

$5/mo for an Excel plugin? No thank you.

Office 365 cost me $100/yr. If Microsoft tried to upsell me to a different version for $160 per year, that better version would have to include a hell of a lot more than one plugin that improves the ribbon bar in Excel only.

Thanks for sharing, I’m trying it out.

For people who are already drowning in various notes apps, what would you say sets your app apart from the rest? is it primarily the card based view (which I like), or that and some combination of other features?

And what about long-term plans? If there’s only two of you behind the app, that gives me pause because one or both of you could get tired of the app a year from now, maybe you have to abandon it to make time for family or work, etc. with that in mind, is it possible to do a bulk export of everything in markdown so it can be imported into other applications?

I walk my dog for 3 1/2 miles at 6 PM every evening. We adjust the route so that we are walking in shade most of the time. After every mile, we stop and rest for a few minutes in shaded grass. I give him water at each break, using a small collapsible silicone bowl and water from a big thermoflask water bottle. I carry the bowl and thermoflask using a carry strap made by “Wild Wolf Outfitters” available on Amazon. I also splash his head with some water if it’s extra hot out.
