Warning: Gnome file manager (Nautilus) can make remote requests when previewing files

    • The Pain That is GitHub Actions - Feldera Blog

    • rm'd a project that was months in the making a few days before launch... What to do if you kill the wrong file without a backup

    • I have created my Portfolio site as a computer underGrad. Please rate / roast it.

  • This level of precision doesn’t make sense. I wouldn’t go any higher than 5 digits which is already meter accuracy.

    Especially in the context of a portfolio, this would count against you for geospatial software roles.

    • Difference between Github, Gitlab, Forgejo ?

  • Gitlab pipelines are super nice to use and integrate nicely with merge requests.

    I like the Github UI, clean and simple, but down like what comes along with it…

    Interested in self hosting forejo but I’m mostly coding at work these days.

    • It is my practice to delete the hash lines after question marks in URLS to defeat tracking... but the question mark has disappeared

    • Privately Share Photo Albums?

  • I use Immich for sharing. Get some accounts set up for closest family so you can easily add them to albums. For others you can just share a link to each album, password protected or simply unlisted.

    Personally, I run my internet accessible apps on my Hetzner VM behind a reverse proxy, whereas things like home automation, DNS and Octoprint I prefer to serve on my local network.

    • Newbie Post: I have gone "all-in" with Linux Mint 22.1, wiping Windows completely. All good...with two nagging problems.

  • Can highly recommend tldr as a companion to man!

    • What is a service you host you never knew you needed?

  • Same as any piece of software you’re hosting, it’s up to you to decide. I run my instance on my Hetzner vm.

    • mysql or postgresql? Which is better for an Internet-facing application

    • Why is copying to USB stick on Linux so damn slow?

  • I do -azP for compression

    • With all this ghostty talk. Am I out of touch for still using terminator all these years?

  • Tilix is great but also unmaintained.

    • Best Alternative to Postman?

  • Also my go-to, I prefer everything in version control instead of someone else’s cloud.

    IIRC, Pycharm can also inject the same .rest files.

    • Best Alternative to Postman?

  • curl?

    • Which default software do you replace after you install your distro?

  • Gnome Files with Thunar.

    It’s the perfect file manager for a user like me.

    • Complete history of Ubuntu: a lot of highs, a lot of lows

  • I also started with Hoary Hedgehog!

    I remember getting the pressed CDs in the mail for free. It was my first installed distribution but I remember messing around with a Slax Live CD before.

    • YSK: there is a library called pathlib with different methods for accessing files which you might like since they do not require a context manager

  • I subconsciously replace os.path with pathlib whenever touching any module for a refactor.

    • Compatibility is the only real issue anymore (opinion/discussion)

  • The only thing I really miss is CAD software for working with BREPs, I wish there was Rhino for Linux. However, I can do like 99% of projects in OpenSCAD.

    • Compatibility is the only real issue anymore (opinion/discussion)

  • Remmina is a treasure

    • Python Overtakes JavaScript as Most Popular Language on GitHub

  • Pydantic offers awesome runtime validation (using Rust).

    I wanted to share a small project I've been working on. The goal was to make the data from NASA's Landsat Thermal Infrared Sensor more accessible to the general public.

    I worked with the raw temperature band data to general annual maximum surface temperature raster images for large urban areas covered by the Eurostat GISCO Urban Audit. In the browser, these images are transformed into easier to interpret isotherm contours with some adjustable settings.

    I don't have a specific target audience in mind. The map could help identify areas of refuge for the warmer months, or overheated neighborhoods to avoid as we march towards a toasty future.

    Feedback is welcome :)

    EDIT: For UK visitors, sorry to leave you with an empty map...

    I've taken a look at older urban extent data and found the geometry I need to process the UK (from before leaving Eurostat). However, there are still some UI limitations to overcome since it seems that cities are split into many boroughs that could only be
