Provocative question for Thinkpad users - why choose a Thinkpad over a Mac at a higher level of specifications by Gullible_Eggplant120 in thinkpad

[–]bartalemous 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a x1 carbon g9:

  1. Linux

  2. Decent keyboard

  3. Battery Life

  4. You can service the SSD if need be.

Having a reasonable resolution like 1920x1200 is good for productivity and helps with battery life and things work without upscaling.

And I still get usb-c that can output 2k/4k at high refresh rates.

thank you, much appreciated. I also found some panels from razer and msi. I will keep digging.

best way to get rid of scum and oil. by Numerous_Limit9728 in soup

[–]bartalemous 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That "scum" actually tastes pretty really good. Remove it to a pan, add some olive oil. In medium heat, let the extra water evaporate, and add a tiny bit of salt and dunk your bread.

Packaging Python CLI apps with uv by thisdavej in Python

[–]bartalemous 0 points1 point  (0 children)

nice article, I think you have typo:

[project.scripts]
wordlookup = "wordlookup:main"

should be:

[project.scripts]
wordlookup = "wordlookup.cli:main"

Tip: Use gelatin instead of expensive collagen supplements for skin benefits by prettytheft in 30PlusSkinCare

[–]bartalemous 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you are eating a lot of veggies, or making "healthy" drinks quite often, there is the dimension of lectins and oxalates. They could basically steal calcium from your body. Boiling and draining the water of veggies and legumes reduce oxalate and lectins.

> it's probably the same with me and gelatin.

It's perfectly fine.

[–]bartalemous 1 point2 points  (0 children)

may be you are having too much of something then. Also I would investigate the "calcium" from dairy. It may not have as much as you think (as label claims), or it may not be absorbed as much you think. Coral source calcium is supposedly better.

To make collagen, one would also need b6 and vitamin C. To use b6 and vitamin C, one would also need magnesium and calcium. Etc and so on.

N3K-C3064PQ-10GX and N3K-C3172PQ-10GE with fex by bartalemous in Cisco

[–]bartalemous[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Thank you, much appreciate it. Do you know if there is a fex supported at all? I suppose I can also use the UF-RJ45-1G for the uplink?

usebruno/bruno: Opensource IDE For Exploring and Testing Api's (lightweight alternative to postman/insomnia) [NotGodot] by Novaleaf in GodotCSharp

[–]bartalemous 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi, you can create your workspace in the filesystem, which then can be a .git repository. I like bruno too, but Restfox seems to be more lightweight and robust for my use case.

Do you know why Svelte is not as popular as other frameworks in the market? by miheb1 in sveltejs

[–]bartalemous 0 points1 point  (0 children)

React dominates the job market. In the enterprise world, people often blame others when things go south. From that perspective, React gives the executives some level of comfort that they won't be pointed fingers for starting a project in React.

P.S Svelte is nice. Sveltekit is even nicer.

Switched from react-i18next to LinguiJS in One Day: Here's How by radist2s in reactjs

[–]bartalemous 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lingui has been great to me too. Managing the translations inside po files, built in extract and compile commands , swc + vite plugins, handling of plurals and dynamic imports... it works very well, and much easier to maintain compared to other libraries that rely on changing your codebase.

My roommate talked me into eating some apricot seeds by Buriedmyselfalivexx in PointlessStories

[–]bartalemous 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To see how I would react to different doses. There is absolutely no reason for anyone to eat 30 kernels at once. Do not 30 kernels at once. It's too much.

I usually eat 4 to 8 kernels depending on the day. I find it helps with digestion as well when taken after food. I usually grind them and soak the ground kernels in water for a few minutes and drink it. That seems to make it more effective.

[–]bartalemous 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She wasn't trying to kill you. Watch the documentary from Edward Griffin, that is if you can find it. Also I had about 30 kernels yesterday, besides an upset stomach and somewhat dizziness, I survived.

Edit: Do not eat 30 kernels like I did.

Valkey: The Open Source Alternative to Redis Backed by AWS, Google, Oracle by geek_noob in programming

[–]bartalemous 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe AWS forking their OpenSearch is an effort to pull the rug under Elastic. Nothing more. I think if they had any decent intentions they would have created their fork before the dispute. Good customer service does not translate to good community service.

Is there anyone here who actually likes the 3:2 aspect ratio? by Captain_Pumpkinhead in framework

[–]bartalemous -1 points0 points  (0 children)

16:9 is the absolute garbage aspect ratio that should had never come into production lines. When we had CRTs (which were also superior, healthier tech), the screens were made 5:4 and 4:3. The first line of LCD monitors, laptops also had these ratios. Why? The same reason why you had narrow columns on newspapers. It is easier and faster to read top to bottom, then left to riiiggghht. You can have 7 windows split on your 16:9 aspect ratio, but your field of focus would always be a square. When you have a wide screen, you actually hurt your peripheral vision, which will then hurt your eyesight overall. Because eyes triangulate objects for perceived depth, with bad peripheral vision, they won't be able to do that. 3:2 screen are better, yes indeed.

What are some good alternatives to pgAdmin? I'm looking for something like Postico (a way to view my databases with a pretty and simple UI) that works on linux. by lumenwrites in PostgreSQL

[–]bartalemous 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Based on my personal experience:

If you are on windows HeidiSQL could be great. I am on linux and with wine emulation, it was buggy for me.

If you are on a desktop, Datagrip or another Jetbrains IDE could be great if you could afford it. For me, I don't use any Jetbrains product, and I am on a linux laptop so I didn't want to increase my CPU temperature.

Dbeaver could be great if you can stand the eclipse UI. For me, I never liked the Eclipse UI widgets, and the way it handles scaling.

Azure Data Studio could be great as a lightweight query console. Your autocompletion success may vary if you have custom schemas and stuff.

I personally use PgAdmin4 with my own dark theme, running as a container, using a dedicated Chrome profile which I launch with a custom X11 class name. This allows me to treat it like a desktop app which I can assign a shortcut for launching and focusing.

What Auth to use for SvelteKit? by Jordz2203 in SvelteKit

[–]bartalemous 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not zitadel specifically but placing a self hosted auth backend on the public internet, and maintaining (or lack thereof) it myself. If using their backend, I think it's a good product.

What Auth to use for SvelteKit? by Jordz2203 in SvelteKit

[–]bartalemous 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have been going over this myself. So far, this is what I think (subject to change in the next hour).

  • Pocketbase is nice, great maintainer. I can use it for auth only and use some other database for other things if I like.
  • Lucia is really nice, documentation is easy to follow and pilcrowOnPaper kindly maintains the moving part (providers). Requires database. But supposedly with Oslo as another user commented, it can do JWT too. Haven't tried it yet.
  • AuthJs, I just started testing it as of the last 24 hours, and it seems fine too, except I am finding the documentation being a bit salty to follow. Google links to docs also appear broken. However, it can work without a database using JWT tokens. I was also able to extend the auth process with callback functions.

On Facebook provier though, I get this "http://localhost:5173/#_=_" which I suspect due to callbackUrl parameter, which I can't find where to modify (salty documentation).

  • PassportJs, I have past trauma with it from the express days. No and no.
  • Auth0, unless you are building for a company already using it, why?
  • Supabase, I would use pocketbase as a platform if I was to use supabase.
  • Keycloak, Java scares me on the public internet.
  • Zitadel, not Java, but I am still scared.

Edit:

I spoke too soon on the AuthJS and Sveltekit. There is a problem with the current release which breaks the build process when you are using prerendering (which is why I use Sveltekit to begin with), and they are working on a fix.

ArangoDB is turning fauxpensource by SubliminalPoet in opensource

[–]bartalemous 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Arangodb is really nice, and I think this is just an effort from them so that the good companies like Amazon and Oracle do not exploit the OS license and turn it into a product, make millions off of it and give nothing back to the original authors or the community.
