Been driving a truck (without trailer) for almost a year now.
Just had my first week on the tractor-trailer (or semi-truck as some call it).
Feel free to ask me anything. : >

Okay fedi, I need to buy a string trimmer (weed wacker). Anyone have brand preferences for modern, fairly affordable ones?

Hi #retrocomputing peoples, I've got an HP D510C/845G part number 268899-999 that needs a CPU- everything else is in the machine except for the CPU. What should I get (including fans, and paste recommendations)? #askfedi
Is there a #HackerNews frontend with the AI-related links filtered out? I swear every second link is about AI and I don't care for them.

So each individual plastic wrapped Kraft Singles™ american cheese slice is 50 calories. Does that include the plastic wrap too?

David has a fabulously intelligent, informative daily political newsletter. He knows Substack ain’t great, but doesn’t know of any options.
Are there some?
@… #AskFedi I need a regex (for Discord’s AutoMod) that prevents any text in all Unicode “fonts” from being sent. By “Unicode fonts” I mean things like these:
Okay, I'm going to ask the Fedi hive mind since I'm not quite sure what the best option is.
I have a VPS for my personal website as well as a Backblaze B2 account. I would like to upload my photos to the B2 bucket and have them automatically appear as part of a gallery on my website. I can install whatever I need to on the VPS, and B2 can be accessed like an S3 bucket.
Best option?

Does it make sense to create a Bundle for loading into OpenPolicyAgent which contains a data.json file with a /giant/ list of both Principals (fediverse handles, email addresses) and Resources (documents, meetings) they Own (can modify)?
Document-ownership kinda sounds Dynamic. But there's no numbers for size/freq (just "medium") in #askfedi #opa #OpenPolicyAgent
I’m about to finally get my act together and move my little-used Google Workspace account elsewhere. Is there anyone who would recommend something other than Protonmail for mail? I have file storage covered and don’t need calendars. I want to use a custom domain and a way to use IMAP clients is just about a must. #askfedi

You know that Firefox feature where bookmarks could contain a %s in the url somewhere and then the name of the bookmark could be used as a prefix in the address bar to quickly query some website? What's that feature called? Does it exist in Safari?

I have a gzip'ed image file. The .img.gz is about 300 GiByte. If I want to know how large the uncompressed image is I'd run `gzip -l file.img.gz`.
But it's slooooooow. I assume gzip doesn't have something like an index structure and needs to decompress the whole stream. Is this so?

What technique / tools are you using in CI to make sure that tests actually ran?
Misconfigurations can often result in huge swaths of test discovery failing silently, leaving a test run in CI including zero (or a very small number of) tests.
Are you relying on code coverage stats collected during test runs, and comparing that to some static fail_under percentage? If source discovery breaks, can 1 passing test be 100% coverage? Do you trust it?

Ah yes, brew upgraded some ssl-related .so file and broke the python binaries linked against it. Again. So many venvs now lay in ruins.
There has got to be a better way.
(Why do pyenv-built pythons seem to habitually get built using the brew-provided libraries? There's no way for brew to know about that dependency.)
