This is a terrible viewpoint as all it does is imply that if apple doesn't make it, then it's shitty?

Yeah no kidding, I don't understand the parent comment at all. How does not allowing anyone to compete make it so you want to make your software better?

You people are weird. Is it that hard to write a personally accountable email?

Do i just live in bizzaro-world?

In the settings app they advertise iCloud if you aren't using it

Also Strawberry which, in my experience, is slightly better in supported features

I've lived in the south my whole life and have heard the phrase long before game of thrones...

It's just a bog standard Proxmox server running the VM.

Plugged the devices in, added them to the VM from the UI and never had any issues.

My HASS VM is my oldest VM by far, it's never let me down.

I agree it's way better than the docker approach, especially once you start adding USB things that need to be piped in.

Yeah similar experiences. The difference between getting my dell laptops fixed vs the absolute nightmarish hellscape of dealing with the apple store to get one fixed is enough to keep me a dell customer forever.

It's good to know I'm not the only one who finds the app store literally insufferable. like you have one option, their store, and now even their store you have to be careful because the ads are so subtle.

Whenever I go actually have to install an app from the apple store I really really have to pay attention to figure out what is an ad and what is what I actually want. Yeah it says it's an ad one it but it shows up first and the "it's an ad" warning feels deceptively subdued.

Not directly related but way back in the day I had a Handspring Visor and would use something (i can't remember now what it was called) to download websites to it when I would sync it and it would be available on it.

At the time i was super into fan stories about Ultima Online like PK Ghost and things and would download that and we would all pass the Handspring around to read them.

Dang this actually brought up some good memories for me thinking about.

We use Postgres partitioning quite successfully to handle our customer based data. Everything is partitioned by customer and some customers are partitioned further.

One gotcha to be careful with is that if you run a query spanning multiple partitions, it will run them all at once and if your database isn't super big - will bring it to its knees.

Outside of that really no issues. We also use Timescale quite heavily, which also works fantastic.

We use LXC on physically distributed Proxmox nodes. It let's us easily launch new VMs and migrate around when we need to. Nothing we have is very complicated but it works well. We use SaltStack to tear up special debug containers with a bunch of integrated tools. To update Saltstack just downloads the new container and creates a new container in Proxmox.

I guess you could technically replace what we built with pure Docker but the Proxmox UI is a godsend for our on the ground support engineers who aren't the most technically savvy types.

We started going down the Kubernetes route initially but it quickly turned into an absolute nightmare for us and we gave up quickly and we're all pretty strong with Kubernetes. I guess though when all you need is a few stateful services running the "dynamic scaling" of kubernetes is kind of pointless.

The complete lack of being able to have offtopic/misc conversations has really sucked. When we had slack we had a channel specific to just chitchat and it was always active but very loose and fun.

We now have a "Chit Chat" channel/team but it's so difficult to use in a natural way that now nobody uses it and now we have zero of it.

As a purely remote worker it kinda sucks

Oh so much this. I find discord utterly impossible to use and keep up with. I'm in 8 servers, each one has a bunch of channels. I have no clue what's going on. Every time I log in I have to click through 8 servers and like 150 different channels.

I've just given up and I'll just never use it again. Absolute dumpster fire.

I built my current desktop with the whole goal of being a tank of a VFIO setup and I have no regrets. Best of both worlds for me as I used to just have two separate computers.

QEMU/VFIO with Looking Glass is just such an amazing setup for my use cases.

I came to the same conclusion really, it's a neat service but even using something like Parsec locally induces enough latency that I just can't use it.

I still run windows in a VFIO setup but Linux is really good for gaming these days. Was even playing Cyberpunk on the release day!

This comes up every time and I have such a hard time believing it's not some kind of weird bot response.

The entire line of reasoning makes no sense to me. You login to bank websites, store photos on computers, and those are not locked down.

Yes somehow, for some reason, your mobile devices needs it?

It makes no sense to me, and I'm not trying to be antagonistic. It just doesn't line up.

Oh this is incredible! As someone who absolutely hates the cutting part of sewing I'll be adding this to the top of my to do list!!

What i've discovered is you really need to buy and/or install a bunch of 3rd party applications to get that horrible UI to work in any usable fashion.

I have completely given up on anything related to stateful applications in Kubernetes. Most of the time it can work okay but the amount of headache's we've experienced with it we've completely abandoned using Kubernetes for anything isn't stateless and requiring dynamic scaling.

You are not alone, I find TOML awful to use and hate when I get forced into it.

Give me YAML or JSON at least they make sense.

With encounters like this it's sometimes just the roll of the dice as well.

I'm with you, I have two Macbooks I deeply regret buying because at this point they just sit in a pile unused because they are just so annoying to use.

I'm in the market now for a replacement for my old 15" thinkpad that I've been using but just haven't really found anything. I seem to be in some weird middle ground that nobody caters too because everything is either 13" or 16".

Any plans for a larger say 15"ish version?

I seem to be in the minority of people who think 16" is too big and 13" is too small.

My favorite part about Safari is how, because I don't own an Apple device, I have next to no options for testing and fixing the issues that get filed with regards to my web application not working in Safari.

Probably 2/3rds of the bugs I get are specifically related to Safari while the other 1/3rd are just general issues that affect every browser.

It's insane to me that they provide no way to possibly resolve this without going out and spending money to buy their hardware.

Oh thank god it's not just me, I searched around and couldn't figure out what was going

I've missed soooo many notifications because of this garbage I have to remember to manually go check it.

Negatory, there's literally no way other than owning an apple device. I have a stack of bugs in a FLOSS app I can't fix for safari because I don't have a mac anymore.

I guess I could try to boot a hackintosh but it's not worth the effort to me.

Wiby is amazing and one of my favorite ways to discover the more unique side of the internet. I love to kill time by clicking "Surprise me" and half the RSS feeds I subscribe to are from this!

Thank you so much for making Wiby! I have truly enjoyed what its brought!!
