Maybe it was doileak.com? It’s now at https://www.top10vpn.com/tools/do-i-leak/

I believe it was Wine they forked https://www.winehq.org/

I have this problem all the time, so I wrote a simple web app to handle file transfers between computers on my local network: https://github.com/fastily/dumb-file-drop

I know this is intended as a sarcastic comment, but this is a real reason why we as a society would benefit from UBI

I work mostly in python with some frontend sprinkled in. My extension list consists of: Volar, Pylance, Live Preview, autoDocstring, autopep8

I made the switch from Win 10 to Ubuntu 22.04 for gaming about a year ago. I play mostly 2D games on Steam and have had zero issues. Anecdotal of course, but most titles I've tried recently either have a native Linux build or work perfectly on Proton (e.g. Stardew Valley, Starbound, Terraria, Core Keeper, Aground, Cryofall, Bejeweled 3)

sort of an automation, but I install all my favorite apps with brew and then use brew again (brew upgrade && brew upgrade --cask -g) to update everything

Bonus: I went the extra mile and wrote a script that bootstraps my entire setup: https://github.com/fastily/autobots/blob/master/macOS/setup/...

I'm pretty sure mas-cli [https://github.com/mas-cli/mas] is abandonware. It hasn't received any meaningful updates in almost 2 years and most of its features are broken

I have quite a few, my personal collection of shell scripts: https://github.com/fastily/autobots

I also curate a shell command cheatsheet: https://github.com/fastily/cheatsheet

This seems (to me at least) like it would be an unpopular move. However, I wonder if this is one of those situations where HN is an opinionated echo chamber, and where the average person would be totally okay with this

A lot of community run websites are like this. On Wikipedia, ~200 volunteers do 80% of the admin/moderation work. And yes, it’s totally unsustainable.

I’ve been an editor on Wikipedia for nearly 15 years. I reckon I’ve easily contributed tens of thousands of dollars worth of value during this time. To be clear, I don’t expect/want any compensation (I firmly believe in the free knowledge for all mission), but I’d be lying if I said it doesn’t sting to see others profit handsomely off of my hard work.

ah, that's unfortunate. I've been using this to host toy projects that don't (and probably never will) bring in any income. Does anyone know of a similar service with a free tier?

It doesn't have to be expensive or complicated. I've written a simple web app that wraps Twilio's fax capabilities.

The whole thing is designed to run on a raspberry pi. The setup costs $1 a month (for the twilio number) and a couple cents per page.

This really deserves more attention. As an oss contributor myself, I’ve noticed that almost no one actually reviews your source code, often choosing to blindly trust libraries simply because they’re available via the language’s package manager.

Would you rather live at the bottom of the ocean?

Not on this planet no, but the universe is a huge place. Space is the obvious next frontier.

Now try it with a cat who sheds a lot, has mild dandruff, and likes to sit on your lap while you work

I do this pretty frequently, and I've written quite a few bash scripts to rebuild my preferred environments for my Mac, Ubuntu boxes, raspberry pis, etc.

It's open source too: https://github.com/fastily/autobots
