https://zfs.rent is a pretty interesting service, I wish would exist in the EU as well.
It is basically a HDD colocation service. You send them HDDs, they host them for you for a fixed fee. You can access your disks through a VM that they provision for you.
Wirklich ernst gemeinte Frage: Was kann #wero, was SEPA und Echtzeitüberweisungen nicht schon können?
Vielleicht übersehe ich da noch was, aber per EU Regulierung einen Alias auf eine IBAN hätte doch quasi den selben Effekt. Mit dem Unterschied, dass automatisch alle Banken das können.
Online bezahlen sollte doch mit EPC-QR Code und Echtzeitüberweisung auch einfach und schnell sein.
Weiß da jemand mehr?
I want decent speed & syntax highlighting aside from LSP support. I got used to the embedded terminal of VS Code quite a bit too.
I want to be able to select text like a human being with a pointing device.
From time to time I also use the VS Code remote development feature (dev containers or VMs). Very convenient sometimes.
Any kind of “AI" features need a kill switch, like chat.disableAIFeatures: true”, which seems to do the trick.
2/x #editors
I have to admit, these days I'm quite indifferent (and lazy) when it comes to code editors. I've been using TextMate in the early days quite a bit, Sublime for MANY years after that, some years of vim and now VS Code for about 9-10 years.
But I'm not invested in VS Code at all. I think its time to look for an alternative…

Copy Fail (https://copy.fail/, CVE-2026-31431) is a good reminder why I don’t want to run CI jobs only in containers.
It would be great to get some momentum to https://code.forgejo.org/forgejo/forgejo-actions-feature-requests/issues/4 (microVMs for forgejo actions). At least on bare metal (or nested VMs with nested KVM) this would make things a lot safer. It would also simplify the usage of containers/docker in CI jobs without compromising security, which is kind of a pain with Codeberg Action currently.
Anyone using Obsidian and the self-hosted LiveSync (https://github.com/vrtmrz/obsidian-livesync)? Seems to be the only self-hosted sync with relevant attention. But the docs are a little weird and confusing. CouchDB can be used, which I find interesting for this use case. But LiveSync's docs are not confident inspiring. e.g. it's totally unclear how conflicts are handled or resolved.
36 Parteien im Haus. Eigentlich relativ umgänglich.
Aber immer wieder lässt jemand seine leeren Versandkartons (also Müll!) im Hausflur stehen. Jedes mal schön mit dem Namen vom Label entfernt.
Dumm nur, wenn man die Sendungsnummer drauf lässt und ich -natürlich- die PLZ des Empfängers kenne. 🤦♂️
Menschen! 🙄
Wow, time flies!
My very few, very tiny CouchDB contributions are almost legal now. 17 years ago, around 2009, I looked at a bunch of NoSQL databases, studied their design and build little projects to deepen my understanding. Being knowledgable in how CouchDB works internally a bit also helped me to get one of my first freelancer gigs.

For some reason I never liked "application firewalls” like Little Snitch. And I didn't yet find a good way to track and enforce sandboxing policies of Mac App Store applications; also, only a minority of applications I use are delivered through the app store.
Anyway.
Recently I wish for more and strict control over what applications can and cannot do. Supply chain risks, careless or sloppy LLM usage etc you name it. No need for my open source Promodoro timer app to have disk or network access.
arg, damn :( I kind of thought I had already removed all my content from the shithole that Twitter became years ago. Apparently I misremembered 🤦♂️
What is the go to tool these days to remove all posts/content? I hope it's still possible via some API or something. I don't want to just delete the account itself (for now).
I'm trying to shop less on Amazon for a while now. It works mostly okay, but only because I'm willing to invest quite a bit of time to find alternatives. Depending on the product category this is A LOT of effort.
I had two cases in the last few weeks, where I found a shop (one directly by the manufacturer), where it turns out that they actually use Amazon fulfillment. In these cases I paid about 15% more, spend hours searching and still ended up with Amazon.
This is so frustrating.
Wir brauchen natürlich nicht darüber reden, wie total albern das ist, dass man sich das selber bauen muss… 🙄
So, läuft nun bei mir im lokalen Netz aufm’ Raspberry. Wenn das jemand auch benutzen möchte: https://codeberg.org/tisba/ardaudioproxy
Wollte eigentlich auch direkt Docker/OCI multi-arch images bauen, aber dafür muss mir unbedingt noch weiter Forgejo Actions (oder Woodpecker) anschauen.
Das die ARD Audiothek keine RSS Feeds hat ist echt unglaublich! Da sind echt ein paar tolle Sendungen drin, aber ich will weder die Webseite noch deren App verwenden.
Also erstmal ein kleines Ruby Script gehackt was mir aus der GraphQL API einen Feed baut. Funktioniert grundsätzlich (gerade mal kurz mit Apple's unsäglicher Podcast App ausprobiert).
Just released my first Rust crate: https://crates.io/crates/arq-restore 🥳
It's a program implementing the data format for the Arq backup program (https://www.arqbackup.com). I've been working on it on and off for a few weeks. It's also my first #rust project 😅
I also decided to host the primary git repository on @Codeberg (💕), so if you want to take a look: https://codeberg.org/tisba/arq-restore.
oh, I totally missed that Hetzner apparently discontinued their very nice dedicated ARM (Ampere) offering :( For their cloud they do still have some VM flavors. But they are now more expensive compared to their Intel/AMD counterparts?
