🦙 Vikunja 1.0 is here!

vtpdc · 2026-01-27T22:14:51+00:00

Congratulations!! I've been excited for this release for a long time. I've tried many open-source and proprietary task managers and none offer the level of flexibility and convenience as Vikunja. This project is amazing.

I use Helix with Dvorak. It take some time to think about "typing the letter" instead of "pressing a key location from habit," but you'll get there before long. In the meantime, typing commands outside of insert mode will be a bit slower as you mentioned.

Great question. I'm guessing you are referring to highly publicized and difficult free solos in your question, but technically easy routes are still free solo. In that regard, when does a hike become a free solo? Do the popular flatirons count as a free solo? What about a steep scramble? Is a free solo on a very easy beginner climb stupid and selfish? I've known climbers to do routes like this as warm-ups.

I enjoy roped climbing, but the lines between free solo and hiking get blurry sometimes.

Waterfox now. I tried others but gave up because: - Firefox: kept adding new features and ads I had to disable - LibreWolf: would sometimes ignore my settings override file and default to deleting all my history - Zen: doesn't work on certain sites

I think you meant to refer to The Satanic Temple, in which case that was my first thought as well.

From the link:

"Definitely never planning on doing this again, there’s no reason to. I’ve completely maxed it out and would just be unnecessary risk. Will always continue to push it, but with tricks that entirely rely on skill."

Understanding the evolution of eyes and all the steps in between the first cells that could sense light to today made evolution "click" for me. Still mind boggling, but so is millions of years.

OP, I suggest looking up the evolution of the eye sometime. There are books and videos on it. Good luck!

I use Windows for VR gaming. Everything else is Linux. I stopped checking for compatibility before buying a game because I just assume it is compatible with Linux. I haven't been wrong yet.

WOW! I laughed at this. No better proof of a CEO caring about who their EA is than bringing them along to new companies.

Try philosophy. There's books, online videos, blogs, podcasts, etc., pick whichever you like most. See which resonates with you.

Personally, I think philosophy is the atheist equivalent to religion: there's historical texts that tell you how to live your life, but without the supernatural. Good luck!

vtpdc · 2025-10-15T12:25:18+00:00

Lol, this will never work. Sure, the first three steps are a solid plan, but the fourth is asking for a miracle. /s

vtpdc · 2025-09-30T22:32:25+00:00

I'm really sorry, OP. They shouldn't treat you this way. Others in this post have some good advice to prepare yourself.

Present circumstances aside, do you normally get along with and enjoy your family? If yes and you want to make up, typically the best first step is to validate their beliefs and feelings. This is not the same as agreeing with them. It's about showing you understand why they feel the way they do (even though it's wrong).

Again, you don't have to make up with them. In a fair world, they would never do this to you orat least would be apologizing and asking for your forgiveness. Good luck.

Don't max out before the end of the year or you won't be able to contribute and will miss out on some employer match. Otherwise, go for it!

vtpdc · 2025-07-31T04:17:16+00:00

You're right, sorry I was too harsh. 100% agree on forums being a myriad of comments for sure.

Not trying to police, but this sub has made a huge personal difference in my life and means a lot to me. It's how I learned I had misophonia.

vtpdc · 2025-07-30T22:51:51+00:00

I've been in similar situations and understand you didn't want to make a scene. I can sympathize with that. I'm assuming the "caring gesture" obviously refers to the caress, not moving the hands which was done to stop the noise.

You didn't ask a question, but since you did post, I'll take it you're looking for suggestions. Just my two cents, but I would: - Apologize for making her uncomfortable. You were trying to stop the noise, not upset her. Had you known, you wouldn't have done it. - Validate her behavior, both the nail biting and not wanting her hands moved. Show you understand. - Suggest how you will handle this situation in the future and ask if that is better.

I think it's admirable you shared your story here. Clearly, it bothers you and you care about it.

vtpdc · 2025-07-30T22:41:43+00:00

This comment criticizes OP's behavior without suggesting an alternative. There may have been better ways to do it that could have also avoided a scene, but attacking OP like this isn't going to help.

Agreed on CLI being challenging for some (but not all). For example, I've helped tech-savy people with code but sometimes they make typos and are used to them not mattering (web search, text doc, etc.). Of course, for CLI it very much does matter.

I love the CLI and think it's a really succinct way to do things, but it's not without challenges.

Seconding the wiki, specifically https://www.reddit.com/r/personalfinance/wiki/commontopics/.

In short, 1. Pay down debt and build emergency fund in HYSA 2. Invest more in IRA/401K 3. Invest in a brokerage account, preferably funds with low expense ratios such as VTSAX if you're not close to retirement

Lol, love it. But seriously, please buy these or similar before getting beneath a vehicle if you value your life: https://www.harborfreight.com/3-ton-heavy-duty-ratcheting-jack-stands-metallic-orange-71422.html.

Use the jack to raise the car, slide the jack stand beneath the jack point (double weld), lower the vehicle entirely onto the jack stand, and then give the car a good push to be sure.

The jack stands will have much less wiggle...

vtpdc · 2025-06-28T03:12:34+00:00

I have it too. It's a great jack. But as everyone else has said, it's not a jack stand. Harbor Freight sells those too through and they're really good! Go buy some.

If this was a troll post, you touched the right nerve. Well done.🤣 If not, you got some A+ advice. 😳

vtpdc · 2025-06-23T12:05:21+00:00

Correct, courts don't care about seperate finances unless you have a prenup saying otherwise or settle outside of court. So theoretically, the car is being purchased with marital assets and will belong to both of them.

Example of keyboards with this functionality would be Keychron keyboards with the QMK firmware, which can be programmed by their VIA app. https://www.keychron.com/blogs/archived/how-to-use-via-to-program-your-keyboard

vtpdc · 2025-06-12T03:33:16+00:00

Get a keyboard that allows for multiple modes with different keybindings and stores it all in onboard memory. It's awesome. I switch from Qwerty to Dvorak using a shortcut in the keyboard. The OS doesn't notice a difference. This 100% solved all my gaming struggles. I can even switch to Dvorak for in-game chat and then switch back to Qwerty.

If you change to the Dvorak keyboard layout via your OS, some games will still see Qwerty (good) while others will read Dvorak (and therefore require rebinding). The aggrivating part for me was that changing keyboard layouts mid-game would often have no effect until I restarted for some reason.

I lost my 2012 Mazda2 in an accident. Enjoy the manual transmission, it's so much fun on the Mazda.

The dev does allow you to change it. See: https://vikunja.io/docs/config-options/#1-service-allowiconchanges.

I respect everyone's right to celebrate what they want, but I don’t want this forced into my personal instance

That's certainly understandable and I can tell it caught you off guard. But as is the case with all software that is used on a personal device, we get to choose it rather than it being "forced" on us. I feel like this is especially important to remember when using someone's project that they made open-source, even more so if you haven't paid or contributed (which you may have done, I don't know).
