That’s an interesting idea, need to check if they offer some kind of a API for that.

But then there is this other thing, what about dns cache?

I always create a virtual environment for each project I run like that. This way you can have your own versions of packages for each project without them interfearing with each other. This is also what the error message sugests in the beginning, so if you have the time I would investigate it and learn about it: https://python.land/virtual-environments/virtualenv

For 10k rows you should probably use a real database anyway ;)

I use office 360 in the browser.
I’m not a typical sysadmin but I use linux anyway. Somehow I always found some workarounds, but I am also not the only one using Linux in our company so the IT needs to work with us to some degree.

yt-dlp is a command line tool but amazing. Works also on windows.

I use radicals for CalDAV and save notes there together with my calendars. On Android there is jtx Board which let’s you work with them. Sadly on Linux I couldn’t find anything so I started writing something myself but don’t have much time to work on it https://github.com/jeena/JNotes

In the long run there is no way around it. To be honest if on device voices would be good enough then just sending the text version and let it read on the device in a somewhat natural voice would be kind of cool. I’m already using a special app which just reads any article I share with it in a fairly ok voice and I love this functionality, I don’t need to sit down and read a long article on my phone, I can do something else and just make it read the article to me.

What I am worried about though are the people who do the research and who write the texts. Those sadly will also be replaced over time with machines and there is something we will really lose.

OK, I switched to that one now, thanks for pointing it out and explaining it.

Nvidia and Linux don’t play well. Also if you are able to add a little bit more I bought a new Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3 14" with a AMD Ryzen processor and without Windows but instead there was FreeDOS preinstalled for $440.

I just installed linux on it and everything worked perfectly for 3 years now, I’m very happy with it. It’s not the most powerful, so I can’t edit videos on it, but I can play Minecraft, I can program, use the browser with all Microsoft 350 stuff and so on without any problems.

Are there RISC V Laptops available on the market? And I wonder how many of my daily apps would run on it. I guess the most important would be a browser.

How have you been burned? In any practical way?

This Lundluke got seems to be some kind of Qanon person.

He means free as in free beer.

Ah, I didn’t make it a link to be clickable, sorry, fixed it now for everyone else ^^

I think you should be able to click on the image and make it bigger.

I use KeePassXC and use syncthing to sync the database to each devise I own. This way I always have the newest version if the database everywhere and don’t need to worry about Internet access at all.

What I always wonder is why they don’t go for something self hosted where they have the control over it.

Yeah, I like how they call their Debian based distro a “Chinese-made operating system”.

Many many years ago I switched from OS X back to Linux and had to find alternatives: https://jeena.net/why-i-switchedfrom-osx-to-linux

For the three software you point as a must have there are alternatives, even those you’d not think of:

• Visual Studio - Stop writing .NET web applications, there are so many other web frameworks around you don’t really need .NET
• Notepad++ - It’s a steep learning curve but Vim and Emacs give you all and more freedom than Notepad++
• Excel - You can use the 365 version in the browser, that is what I do at work
• OneDrive works through the browser again, but there are alternatives like Nextcloud, Syncthing, Seafile
