How can I tell which is going to last the best in a hard working Raspberry Pi?
I don't see any 'read/write cycles' data.

Anyone have recommendations for a macOS app to manage and organize PDFs? I have somewhere over 1000.

I used to use the Books.app, but the rewrite a few years ago took away a bunch of the organization ability (tagging, metadata editing etc).

I Ideally want something that keeps the PDFs stored in a folder of my choosing and keeps all the metadata in the files themselves. It should have it's own database that is simply an index of those PDFs to make searching/organization quick and easy.

Would it be possible to "toggle" requests with #htmx? Like, first click makes the request, second one doesn't, third one makes a new request and so on...

Any cactus experts out there in socials land? Are these lighter green blobs just more growth or are they the first sign of buds?

I'm curious how others handle code reviews where the difference is a matter of personal taste (e.g., I like doing it this way because [some reason that really just boils down to preference]).

I'm curious from the reviewer's and the submitter's perspectives.

Also, I'm pretty sure something good has been written on this already, somewhere... so, I guess I'm not so curious, yet, that I'm willing to put in the work to get an answer.

If I wanted to know what concerts were played on the date 2006-06-21 in a certain city, where or how could I get that information? Sorting through search results full of totally unrelated dates and events seems useless.

Is it possible to use a view transition for an exit animation of something in the top-layer? For example, a popover that’s open, but following a link within it causes a transition (and consequently the popover is closed after the transition). #CSS #LazyWeb

Does anyone have a bookmark for that article that was making circles a few years ago about interactive accessible SVG? It used a map of Canada as the example. #SVG #LazyWeb

Wait, where are US citizens voting ? Because I saw an imgur meme about voting in a church and it seems so deeply wrong to me #lazyweb

Back in the day I used dia for making flowcharts and decision trees.

For the last couple of years, I had regressed to using .DOT

Today I have a rather complicated chart that I need others to help with, and I don't expect them to understand DOT format, but DIA hasn't had an update in YEARS.

Is it still "fine", or is there a better alternative out there?

Must be open source, installable on Windows and Linux, & preferrably not web based.

Dumb E-bike question: what do I look for to pull kids in a trailer?

Was nimmt heutzutage, wenn man mal eben ein 50+MiB File jemandem zur Verfügung stellen will und keinen auf adminhassle hat?

Dear #LazyWeb #FediHerd,

with different disasters - both natural and otherwise - on the rise, I am looking for recommendations on a radio receiver that would be well suited (also) for in such occasions.

What I imagine - but if you thought it through better, do let me know - one would need:
- AM, FM, DAB (I imagine internet radio is most fragile)
- battery - either easy replaceable or rechargeable
- also work without batteries
- good quality and sturdy
- portable
- world coverage would be cool

Dear #lazyWeb & #lazyFedi,

I've built a small model in @OpenSCAD and I'm looking to get it 3D printed. Does anyone have any recommendations for 3D printing services?

I'd like it printed with a decent bit of mechanical performance. It will get wet, it will probably get oily and grimy. Part of it will be under "reasonable" compression load.

Are PCBWay or JLC any good? What about Treatstock? UK or EU preferred.

Personal experiences desired! I know how to Google/DDG.

#LazyWeb: At some point 15-20 years ago, I was reading some Austin’s Group rationale for deprecating ucontext_t and friends, which said it was the only safe way of jumping out of a signal handler but was problematic because people were using it to implement userspace threading and it was not safe to do so because this required synchronising state that was not always visible in userspace. I can no longer find this and it appears not to be in the rationale section for any #POSIX spec I’ve checked. Does anyone have the reference to hand?

Dear #LazyWeb / #lazyfedi,

I'm new to #k8s and am wondering how to handle templating large amounts of config files. I couldn't find anything super useful in my search so I have an #Ansible sidecar I run to generate the kustomizations and config files. My most recent Ansible change was 30 lines, it resulted in changing 5,000 lines of YAML which will further be fed to Kustomize.

There has to be a better way?

I've heard about Helm, Yoke, KRO, and using an operator pattern. My understanding of those options is:

* Helm - My Org recommends avoiding (I don't know why)
* KRO - Not stable, but FFS neither is Kustomize
* Yoke - Almost kinda operator pattern
* Operator Pattern - This feels like reinventing a fucking config manager (ala #Ansible, #Puppet, #Chef, #Saltstack) for every fucking project. What new hell this is.

I'm hoping I'm missing something because the only workable flow for this workload is:
1) Create ansible roles/playbook to generate the kustomization.yaml and resources
2) Generate those kustomizations, check them into git
3) Use Kustomize via GitOps to expand the YAML even more
4) Push a metric fuckton of YAML to production

I'm losing my mind over here.

#LazyWeb looking for some suggestions for *good* use cases for #LLM tech.

I know I know, I'm not a fan either. But I'm required to build *something* using the tech for work as a demo. Hoping to get some good ideas for some use case where it's a benefit that it's just a statistical model, and not a fact based correctness machine.

#lazyweb #indieweb looking for #recommendations on #podcasts

Anything #science #technology #health #history #weirdnews #movies related. Hell, recommend anything.

Also, are #indiepodcasts a thing? If so, they get bumped to the head of the line.

perhaps another #lazyweb post but without starting a holy war: what's the state of things with #perl and #raku these days?
