brunoqc··on KOReader: Open-Source eBook Reader
To sync progress, you can use `https://sync.koreader.rocks/` as a custom sync server. While in a book, top bar, settings, "Progress sync".

I think it works using the file name of the epub. Not sure.

brunoqc··on Everyone knows all the apps on your phone
> apps know everything I am doing

I think I call bullshit on this.

But I agree that they could do way more and that they don't seem to care.

> Solitary isn't torturous in the traditional sense of the word.

I think it might actually be. It can break people.

Surely prisoners still have some privileges that could be taken away as a punishment (going outdoors, books, tv, computers, phone, visits, classes/work...

Would you mainly use the 12 inch one or you like having both?

Why would you prefer AMD? price, heat/fan noise?
brunoqc··on We were wrong about GPUs
It's great when people admit they were wrong but I can't help to find those headlines clickbaity.

A bit like "stop doing this..." and we think: omg, am I doing the same deadly mistake?

brunoqc··on We replaced our React front end with Go and WebAssembly
Gleam might be a good fit for that.
brunoqc··on Purelymail: Cheap, no-nonsense email
Doesn't Google claim they don't read your emails?

There's plenty of reasons to drop Google thought. They barely improve old products.

They probably try to force us to use their products: I think you can't use your own assistant with a wakeword. On my pixel watch 1, using a calendar other than Google's sucks. There is almost no useful wearos apps (sure, it's the devs jobs but Google could bribe them or something). A lot of great wear os apps would benefit everyone.

I'm still pissed that they want a monthly subscription for the sleep tracking with the Google home thing... That you buy with your own money.

brunoqc··on Using AZs can eat up your budget – From Prometheus to VictoriaMetrics
You are right. I guess I just saw the Apache 2 license and assumed it was foss.

Btw, both clickhouse and timescale are open core. If you care about that.
brunoqc··on A Practitioner's Guide to Wide Events
Can you emit only 1 event per request when you use the open telemetry collector are you emit a bunch of spans? I think I saw that Victoria logs support the otel collector.
brunoqc··on Siyuan: Privacy-first, self-hosted personal knowledge management software
> though that would be a major jerk move

Would it? If they don't want people to do it they could just use a proprietary license.

brunoqc··on Siyuan: Privacy-first, self-hosted personal knowledge management software
Right but it's a bit unusual. I was expecting the "pro" features to be in a separate repo or something.

I don't think I would even bother to update a local patch on every releases. I'll just use another foss app without silly "pro" features.

brunoqc··on Siyuan: Privacy-first, self-hosted personal knowledge management software
Not fully open source. It seems you need to pay to get the privilege to "Export PDF/Image with watermark".

brunoqc··on A Practitioner's Guide to Wide Events
Thanks. Yeah, I was planning to try it but I was wondering since the parent's comment was saying it's just a "JSON-formatted log".
brunoqc··on A Practitioner's Guide to Wide Events
Any fully open source tool that can store "wide events"?
brunoqc··on A Practitioner's Guide to Wide Events
ClickHouse is open core too. If you care about that.
brunoqc··on OpenERV
My bad. Yes, I saw DIY heat exchangers posted in the past and people were worried about Legionella/Legionnaires and mold. It seems scary when we don't know what we are doing.

DIY heat exchangers would be so awesome though. Only new constructions are required to have an heat exchanger here.

brunoqc··on OpenERV
Is it safe? I think I heard that home made heat exchangers cause listeria or something like that. Something about condensation.
brunoqc··on Should you ditch Spark for DuckDB or Polars?
Clickhouse is open core. Which is a dealbreaker for me.
brunoqc··on Mapping all 13.8 gigapixels of the Caves of Qud world map
Don't be afraid to play using "role-play mode" which is, IIRC, the one that saves in each settlement. There's no shame in that. You'll still be careful not to die, but it's a lot less punishing.
brunoqc··on Unexpected Keyboard
I like the idea of their keyboard a lot, but I wish they didn't use that license.
brunoqc··on Microsoft Recall still storing credit card, social security numbers
Can we disable recall?
brunoqc··on Nyxt: The Hacker's Browser
Kinda related, but did you know that GitHub refer to itself as "The AI-powered developer platform"? I guess copilot is more important than being a decent forge.
brunoqc··on Show HN: BunkerWeb – The Open-Source Web Application Firewall (WAF)
> Whether it's enhanced security, an enriched user experience, or technical supervision, the BunkerWeb PRO version will allow you to fully benefit from BunkerWeb and respond to your professional needs.

Is it open core? I see that the license is AGPL. Can I just edit the code to enable the "pro" features, or are they in another repo?

"enhanced security" sounds a bit like the open source version is gutted to encourage people paying for it. If so, it's a bit of a shame. Wouldn't it be better if everyone used this waf and the web would be more secure as possible for everyone?

brunoqc··on Ractor – a Rust Actor Framework
Thanks! I'm taking a look at https://github.com/wmealing/gleam-distribution-demo/tree/mai...

brunoqc··on Ractor – a Rust Actor Framework
With gleam, how do you call an actor on another machine when you have a cluster? Do you need something like redis?
brunoqc··on Freenet: A decentralized alternative to world wide web
Glad to hear that progress is being made. I can't wait to try it. Thanks!
