achayala··on Leaving GitHub for Forgejo
I really like forgejo. I selfhosted it too, but then I go back to codeberg. Probably I will selfhosted it again. I really want a descentralized internet and https://forgefed.org/ gives me hope.
achayala··on I moved my digital stack to Europe
Nice post. I really was expecting you replace Github/Gitlab with Codeberg.
achayala··on Rv: The Missing Piece for Ruby Programmer Happiness

achayala··on Building a framework-agnostic Ruby gem (and making sure it doesn't break)
I discover the same, Ruby is not just Ruby on Rails. So I made the same change for my engine and I wrote something about it here:

It is nice to see more people building outside Ruby on Rails, that create a health environment.

achayala··on A Year with the Framework 13
Ok, I did some tests again and the battery life says is 90%. I was able to work for a bit more than 3 hours. Still this is the half you can work :o

I run debian, with backports enable for run the newest kernel version. I have syncthing running, but I think this is not a big problem. Fan run hard when doing work, otherwise it is quiet. All this in KDE battery save profile mode.

I don't know, maybe battery have something wrong? I was looking the framework page, and it says "The 61Wh battery retains up to 80% capacity after 1,000 cycles of use. ". Mine has 142 change-cycles and it is at 91%!!

achayala··on A Year with the Framework 13
I am not so happy, it is really a surprise to me the battery life. I mean you mention all day work? men, my framework laptop with Intel Ultra 5 just work for 2 hours maximum from I bought it, I also have problems with touchpad (support send me a new one) and the heat is a real problem. I mean, I just have to manage the laptop in battery save mode, otherwise the cpu temp easy get 100 degrees or more doing normal work.

Still, I am really surprised about your battery duration.

achayala··on Migrating to the EU
I did the same! The only problem with this is the uptime of codeberg.org, it sucks haha, but that is not a problem for me. I have not critical services there.

achayala··on I switched from VSCode to Zed
