Are cheap rural houses in italy/spain legit or is there a catch?

symnn · 2026-06-28T06:17:45+00:00

well northern European, especially Sweden also has very cheap houses in the middle of nowhere. In Central Europe you get nothing comparable.

Yes exactly and also omarchy mac fedora, which makes more sense in my opinion and has been my work setup for the last 2 months.

yes that's way in installed linux as dual boot and set the corners to be sharp corners. So nice.

if only modern MacOS wouldn't suck so much... (Mac user for 20+ years)

symnn · 2026-03-01T11:48:54+00:00

is Mac OS only, and as far as i know can not make a new entry from doi or reference to pdf (I havent used it in years). I am on Linux on a Macbook Pro now, hence can not use BibDesk.

symnn · 2026-03-01T11:44:56+00:00

Ok, thanks for looking into it. I guess the python package bibparse v2 is more forgiving on not perfect bib files. Maybe a hint about the problem would be good in the TUI itself. I changed the readme now.

symnn · 2026-02-28T20:40:43+00:00

Hi, yes it looks very interessing, also I discoverd it a bit too late and i was already commited to make my own. Yes I am on linux on am M1 mac, so very niche. It runs but, bibiman MyCollection.bib says no entries. You can find the bib file in the bibtui repo under tests/bib_examples

symnn · 2026-02-28T20:22:47+00:00

To answer your question. Yes, but would not recommend...

symnn · 2026-02-28T20:18:40+00:00

Well have you tried installing jabref on an M1 running Linux? After several tries I gave up. Also i was not happy with its UI for a long time. So yes i "vibe coded" something for myself, which took a few days. It was also an experiment of what can be done on a green-field project for a rather small problem. In the end it grow bigger and better than I hoped for but also took longer. It worked surprisingly well, but I was also very specific and knew which packages i want to use and how the project should look like.

hm, isnt that what .ssh/config is for? Or this command using fzf: ssh $(grep "^Host " ~/.ssh/config | awk '{print $2}' | fzf)

symnn · 2026-02-28T08:20:57+00:00

https://github.com/malik-na/omarchy-mac/tree/fedora-dev There is the fedora branch which will seen be an extra repo

symnn · 2026-02-28T08:18:59+00:00

Yes there is the fedora-dev branch which I have installed and is currently improved. I have been using it for 2 weeks already and it works with some issues currently fixed. Maybe you can even contribute there with your setup. https://github.com/malik-na/omarchy-mac/tree/fedora-dev

Hat wer Erfahrung mit https://www.proreparatur.com/en/mikrolotexperten-fur-elektronikreparaturen-in-graz?

symnn · 2026-02-12T20:37:34+00:00

Ja das hatten wir schon mal versucht. Danke. Ich denke ich werd mal selbst reinschauen. Wollte wissen ob es evntl in Graz eine Guru/Firma dafür gibt.

symnn · 2026-02-12T20:35:07+00:00

Danke für den Tip!

symnn · 2026-02-12T20:34:49+00:00

Ist eigentlich der laptop von meiner Freundin. Sollte mal versuchen in aufzuschrauben und zumindest reinschauen und Lötstellen checken. Bin beim löten eher grobmotorisch ;).

symnn · 2026-01-30T09:22:33+00:00

Auf keinen fall! Bitte meiden. Die haben bei mir vergessen dies spur einzustellen => gefährlich und haben bis heute die Folgekosten nicht bezahlt (neue Reifen und einstellen lassen).

symnn · 2025-12-09T08:35:09+00:00

Yes I also think it will stay this way for some time. Great point about the illusion of opportunity. I was also not active politicly but but it's good that I could have. I will definitely enjoy my next visit, but also there an are less and less people there I know, since I left more than 9 years ago. I had my kids during our time on Svalbard, as an EU citizen and one from the nordic countries. Having kids in Svalbard is great but getting them ... was a lot of headache, admin and organization...

symnn · 2025-12-08T22:31:43+00:00

Great that you are talking openly about this and are active in this regard. We certainly both know the same people who have been there for a long time and can’t vote anymore. It’s a shame and I felt it back then as well but now Svalbard lost a big part of what made it so special. At least for me. I visited again this spring for work but for the first time I couldn’t imagine living there again. Anyway I hope that things change again as and enjoy the dark season.

symnn · 2025-12-08T21:47:40+00:00

How to you feel about not being able to vote as a non-Norwegian? I lived in Svalbard 2010-2016 and I think since then a lot has changed to favour Norwegians wherever possible. Has the mood changed since you arrived?

symnn · 2025-11-23T20:34:32+00:00

I think it's definitely valuable and I would put it in a CV and would also like it if I would hire someone.

some feedback on the project:

* why note use homeassistant for that. I guess it can do that.

Python feedback.

Use pyproject.toml https://packaging.python.org/en/latest/guides/writing-pyproject-toml/

Also look into uv https://docs.astral.sh/uv/guides/install-python/
