I’m also using ansible everywhere in my home / private infra and lab. Occasionally I get slightly annoyed that I have to open an inventory file or a role var to find something. But in general I’m so grateful that there is one place to find this information, and the same is used to set up everything from scratch.

Is it extra work to write the roles and playbooks? Yes. Does it solve the documentation and automation problem completely? Absolutely. 10/10 would recommend. And for the record, most things I host run on containers, but the volumes and permission management alone make it worth your time.

Too late for that

Storage is not easy when you don’t have massive amounts of free land. This is an ongoing debate in Europe, and in one particular country a leaky storage was discovered just a month or two ago. Again.

And there is no guarantee that what we build today is not going to be a massive liability in 50 or 200 or hell, 500 years. But the companies and people who are responsible will not even exist at this point.

What about the storage for the used fuel? This is a massive problem for any country not occupying half a continent.

Man könne auch eine gewisse Zeit crossposten, und darauf hinweisen. Ich fände es super, ein paar communities auf den Server mit content zu versorgen. Diese dann zu folgen = mehr Traffik auf die neue Communities.

Das ist aber für den Arbeitgeber nicht egal, und es hat Einfluss auf das Gehalt, der sich die Firma überhaupt leisten kann.

It is one of the easier ways to globally configure git auth for private Go packages.

I was considering grabbing a last minute legacy license, but I really don’t have a use case for unraid. I need a NAS for storage and a few VMs. And my apps run on generic SBCs or NUCs which I manage through ssh/ansible. So yeah, TrueNAS it is for me as well.

And there is absolutely no way, that I could find, to create or pin a shortcut to eg WinTerm, which would launch it as admin.

What are the advantages of using the plugin (Remotely Save) over just using dumb sync with Syncthing? Conflicts I assume?

You know, I don’t get offended or anything. But it’s impossible to mute / block streamers, and there are some particularly annoying offenders which I just don’t want to see when I open twitch. Just give me the option to filter that out and I won’t complain again.

Alight, thanks. Let’s see if I can explain this.

I couldn’t find native support for the following:

• snap windows left and right with keyboard shortcuts (Win Key + Arrows on Windows)
• set a default output device (eg speakers), but select apps (Spotify for example) should output through my USB DAC.
• I can tab between applications, but the only way to tab between all active Windows was with a third party app. It mostly works fine, but has a few quirks.

So maybe I missed it or we are talking about the same things. Can you point me at the right thing to look for? Since you seem to be aware how these work natively.

• snapping windows by keyboard shortcuts (Win Key + Arrows on Windows)
• I want to have one output device by default (eg speakers), but select apps (Spotify for example) should output through my USB DAC.
• I can tab between applications no problem, but when I looked up how to change between windows of the same app (eg text editors), I came up with nothing. How is the shortcut called?

Cheers

Can you point me at the right settings? I googled around and that’s what I found. Maybe I came up with old results which aren’t up to date?

MacOS is extremely barebones. Almost two years ago I got a MacBook to work on a customer project. Until then I’ve only been on Linux and Windows 10. And boy was I in for a surprise. I kind of got used to it, but let me give you a few examples.

You want to tab between windows and not apps? Better pay for an app. You want to snap your windows left or right? An app. You want to control which app outputs to which audio device? You guessed it - an app. Clipboard? App. Configure mouse acceleration? An app (linear mouse).

I mean, the OS is polished and looks great. And if all you do is swoosh windows left and right in Starbucks, that’s all you need. But for anyone else it’s just sad how little it supports out of the box.
