Idk man. Homelessness will kinda suck anyway, because you have no place to rest, usually struggle to get enough food etc.. Bad weather will make things much worse. Solitary is considered to be one of the worst kinds of prison sentences, unless you're like a target for others for some reason. And high school can go either way. Mine was great, but it can definitely suck for some. But without others, how exactly is it a school? Maybe in some extreme cases of bullying, it might be better, but I think for most the loneliness will be far worse.

Ok, I guess I misinterpreted what you said. My laptop only has a DC barrel port. I want to charge it using any of the high wattage GaN chargers. To do that, I'll need something that converts the USB-C to barrel, and does the voltage negotiations. But thanks anyway. Maybe this'll help someone else.

Hey, I'm interested in the last thing. Can you give me some details on how to do it? I'd love not to carry around the bulky stock charger.

I took a look at it. From what I understand, some of the lines in your setup are redundant. The final product seems to do basically the same job as mine. In any case, if it works, it works.

Are there really people who will buy a new mouse rather than charging it? How long does the charging take? Also, at that point, wouldn't they buy from any brand other than Apple?

Hey, great post. I have one request. Can you maybe add some description for what the iptables entries do? I have a similar setup with a lot less iptables rules that works well for me. But I'm not an expert in networking, and am now worried that I might be missing something that can leak my home IP.

They're just outsourcing their ethics.

[-] SexualPolytope@lemmy.sdf.org 26 points 5 days ago

There's propaganda, definitely. Also, there are people who simply don't care what they watch. They'll just open Netflix and watch whatever they see on the home screen. It's hard for them to understand why I might wanna watch some Iranian movie from the 80s.

Come on, it was right in their name. CrowdStrike. They were threatening us all this time.

Idk, installing Linux was pretty easy 10 years ago too. Can't comment about anything earlier than that though.

I want to get a new VPS. It'll mostly be used to host lightweight Docker images, and reverse proxying through Caddy. So, decent CPU and fast network speeds are the main things I need.

I have a cheap VPS with RackNerd. It's fine, but only has a single CPU core, which gets overwhelmed if multiple connections are trying to pull stuff from some service. So, I guess having multiple cores is a requirement as well.

I want to spend around $5/month, but willing to go a little higher if it's worth it. Any suggestions are appreciated.

P.S. I'm based in US and would prefer something in here for lower latency.

Update: Hetzner's CX22 IPV6 only plan seems to be very good in terms of price-performance ratio. But the servers are in Europe. I'm planning to try it out for a while and see how the latency is. It's great that they don't lock you in with yearly plans.

I currently run a personal wiki for some notes, recipes, and stuff. It's set up using Wiki.js as the server. I'm the only regular user, and I feel like it's a bit of an overkill.

Does someone have any suggestions for a more lightweight wiki server? I tried DokuWiki and mostly like it. But the UI is very old and dare I say, ugly. I love the UI of Wiki.js btw.

My main criteria is that it should be lightweight. I don't need fancy editing features. Happy to work with raw html or markdown files.

I need some kind of permission management to hide some private wikis from the public, but otherwise I don't really care.

Help with snippets? (lemmy.sdf.org)
submitted 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago) by SexualPolytope@lemmy.sdf.org to c/neovim@programming.dev

My goal is to automatically close the environment while editing a tex file. There was an issue for vimtex asking for basically what I want to achieve. They achieve it using snippets as mentioned there.

The problem is, I have no idea how to set it up. I've never used snippets in nvim. I have vim-vsnip and cmp-vsnip installed as it was needed for another plugin to work. Is it possible to implement this using those?

It can be noted that in vimtex, an environment can be closed by typing ]] which is a mapping of vimtex-delim-close. I basically want to emulate the behavior in VS Code using LaTeX Workshop. It auto-closes the environment, adds an indented line in the middle, and moves the cursor there.

If anyone has any other ideas about doing this without snippets, that's welcome too.

Anon thinks speaking and writing in a language is all there is to do in a bachelor's degree. You literally have to read thousands of pages of literature, and need to be able to analyze those pieces critically.

Guys, is lying allowed on the Internet? I'm starting to think that Anon never even set foot in a college.
