My first Linux distro was SuSE 7.x, just because we had an installation box in the high school library. 8 CDs to install packages from etc. Funny stuff.

Then I played with Gentoo & Debian for a couple of years, but went back to openSuSE once I started my first real job. We had to use it because we needed a Red Hat compatible and enterprise ready Linux. And I am using openSuSE to this day if I have a choice. Everything works, if I quickly need something YaST can configure a lot of shit and is just super user-friendly.

But I recommend Leap for day-to-day work, Tumbleweed with its rolling updates keeps updating almost 24/7.

i/o is shit on that thing. Syncing any reasonable amount of data is out of question.

I think you've just used a deprecated widget. I didn't notice any incompatibility, maybe there's some for beta widgets but otherwise all features I needed were there.

I use grafanalib. I have a script that generates the dashboards depending on given parameters, then I store generated JSON as a k8s configmap that's mounted into the directory that's checked by grafana on startup. Might not be everyone's cup of tea but it is good enough for me.

The fleet in berlin is run by many smaller organisations like schools or family centers. IIRC the deal is that city buys a cargo bike for the non profit and pays for a service, and in return the bike is available to anyone who wants to use it. There are limits on how long the bike can be borrowed and sometimes a security deposit is required but otherwise it's free. I love my tax money supporting this initiative.

Stop obsessing about Reddit and create a content on Lemmy instead. People will come once they see there's enough activity here.

Yeah after moving to Berlin I fell in love with the lakes around. The water in many of these is incredibly clean. There are also former coal mines redeveloped into lakes which are also awesome.

I used to buy a lot of things in AliExpress, but since they've changed their business it's usually better to just order on Amazon.

The things on AliExpress used to be dirt cheap and it was a no brainer buying random electronics components in a pack of five for a price of one in the EU shop.

Or sometimes I was looking to some oddly specific item and I always found it on AliExpress. It's no longer the case, it seems the search results are 10 products of 3 manufacturers that are essentially the same thing.

Only when googling stuff I sometime add site:reddit.com, but I am no longer browsing reddit on my phone. With the death of RIF and APIs I just can't stomach looking at the page.

And good bless old.reddit redirector plugin.

vim, neovim and a bunch of plugins. It's such a great productivity booster, I am using it daily for SW development.

libgen.is and its mirrors

It's one of few hills in Berlin - Kreuzberg. The steeple is not a cathedral, but a monument from 18th century dedicated to victory in the war against Napoleon.

It's a nice park to just chill and drink a beer, and the waterfall helps to cool the air in these hot days.

We built a box to store our gardening tools and it also doubles as a bench. Nothing fancy really.

Yeah Canadians are at least polite. In Germany, they will just silently remove the bike lane and sent police ON BIKES herding cyclists from sidewalk into the traffic.
