    Gonna have to see a doctor tomorrow, this fever refuses to go down and I'm at my wit's end trying to stay hydrated when I also want to put nothing in my mouth...

    Sigh, was hoping to dodge any sickness from the Mumbai trip but ended up with a fever anyway :blobUgh:

    @Aurimas are you also seeing the weird formatting in the last paragraph? I'm on Firefox Nightly 135.0a1, just wanted to check if this is a regression I should be reporting.

    The last paragraph of the blog linked in the post I'm replying to, where a link on the phrase "normalize your input" is spaced to be as wide as the whole line with a ton of whitespace between each of those words.

    Upgraded my Pixel 4a to LineageOS 22.1 and the process went smoothly as expected. Kinda wish they'd allow for major upgrades to also happen through the updater app but having to do it manually once a year is not too bad.

    #TIL: You can run `systemctl cat servicename.service` to get the "final" version of your #systemd service file, including all overrides which would typically be loaded dynamically by systemd itself and not visible in the actual unit file.

    This is extremely helpful on #NixOS where packages can sometimes re-use upstream systemd unit files and inject NixOS specific options through an override file which can be non-obvious.

    The attached image shows the extra information it's able to surface

    A Git diff of two temporary files containing systemd service definitions. The left hand side was created via `cat /etc/systemd/system/earlyoom.service` and the right hand side was generated by `systemctl cat earlyoom.service`. The diff shows additional Unit and Install configurations at the bottom sourced via an overrides.conf file which contains some environment variables that the service relies on to run which weren't visible in the base file.

    Have to say despite how cold it used to get up in Nainital when I was studying there, at least you could feel the sun when you were sitting out. Down here in Delhi I can be in the sun for half an hour and come back in colder than I was feeling before.

    I've kept up with digital reading relatively well over the past few years but getting back into reading physical books has been so nice, just sitting out in the sun and reading something for 15-20 minutes has been doing wonders for my mental health and is a nice break in the morning routine.

    Wanna hear from other #StarWars fans: do you have to be old enough to have watched Goonies to appreciate Skeleton Crew? The initial mutiny sequence made me excited for the show but they immediately lost me with the children's pivot. I've seen multiple people now say they like the show because it's kinda like Goonies and I'm wondering if that's the only demographic for this.

    @skinnylatte I have friends here in India who get paid these numbers by EU/US companies as remote workers and they won't even entertain the idea of moving at their current salary. The whole wage slave thing is so infuriating to hear every single time it comes up, people act like the US is such a dream land that Indians would leave everything behind for meager pay just for the privilege to exist on US soil.

  23. Public · 2025-01-03 03:13+00:00

    Now I just need to figure out how to a) survive without getting to play games with my friends, b) actually do something useful in the morning, and I'm well on my path to world domination

    Switched to a self-hosted instance of #Phanpy after many months with Tuba. The convenience of a native app is great but I just prefer Phanpy's UI much more, and the catch-up feature is unparalleled.

    TIL: #Git has its own version of $EDITOR - $GIT_EDITOR - that it looks up with a higher priority, which means it is possible to optionally set a different editor for your Git commit messages/rebase to-do's than everything else.

    One specific place where it's useful is integrated terminals inside IDEs, which often allow you to inject additional environment variables and thus you can set $GIT_EDITOR there to edit commit messages from the IDE while using the Git CLI

    Realising now that this was a little _too_ quick and won't handle booleans properly, for now you can just encode them as strings yourself to sidestep the issue and I'll try to remember to fix it in the morning 😅

    @botteaap yeah in my own experience with Copilot both GPT-4o and Claude Sonnet 3.5 struggled similarly with stuff I was asking, Claude just seemed to more consistently generate plausible looking code.
