What's the point? Mastodon should work with them but they shouldn't work with mastodon?

Red Lobster eyes bankruptcy option after $11M in losses from endless shrimp ( abcnews.go.com )

"Last year, Red Lobster reported $11 million in operating losses following its flubbed 'Ultimate Endless Shrimp' deal, which backfired when it reeled in too many customers after the limited-time promo became a permanent menu fixture last June. The restaurant chain later reported $12.5 million in losses in the fourth quarter of...

MashedTech ,

If that much loss is going to bring down a corporation? Maybe the corpo wasn't being taken care of good enough

MashedTech ,

I wish my employer just accepted my push to use OAuth...

MashedTech ,

Idk, I'm fine with Yaml/json + json schema. A JSON SCHEMA IS A REQUIREMENT for a good config in my opinion.

MashedTech ,

They're blocking the fucking GPU SOFTWARE? WHAT THE FUUCK?

MashedTech ,

Linux: WE NEVER BREAK USER SPACE!
Windows: Oops... The only thing we break is userspace.

MashedTech ,

Yep, we're reconsidering it at work as well. it's grown pretty nicely

MashedTech ,

If we keep saying it's the year of the Linux desktop, one day... It will be.

MashedTech ,

Oh no, that hungry Palestinian we keep beating and shooting is going to assault me for all my bread. What am I, a poor Israel soldier, going to do?!

MashedTech ,

Here's my opinion. This terminal app is inefficient as fuck. I feel like it's too much bloat for what a terminal should be. She'll Completions have existed since forever, I don't get what's bringing new with that. And all these AI's that just resell chatgpt are getting expensive. "Please pay me 10$ a month to have OpenAI in your " . If I were to activate all the AI subscriptions in all the apps I use it would go over 100$. If I need ChatGPT I will just go on their website and get it from there. It's even cheaper that way, 20$ for unlimited use.

MashedTech ,

I feel like all these apps with OpenAI ask me to pay just so I don't have to manually copy and paste to the ChatGPT website. Oh please...

MashedTech ,

And also, like... Data privacy... My terminal commands and command outputs contain sensitive data. Even company sensitive data. I don't want to be liable.

MashedTech ,

And also like "workflows" just get yourself a makefile or a task file and now you can reuse your "workflows" in any terminal, shell or environment.

MashedTech ,

And also sharing info with your team THROUGH THE TERMINAL? WHAT KINDA SHIT IS THAT. That should be documentation in THE REPOSITORY, IN THE PROJECT. You're just fragmenting information, and it's going to make it harder for you to keep it up to date and for people to find it.

MashedTech ,

And... I don't want to force on my team "hey you have to use this terminal otherwise you won't have the info". I feel like with this I would be encroaching on their personal space and way of using their computer.

MashedTech ,

Kitty terminal with my zsh plugins are far better than asking me for an account on your terminal.

MashedTech ,

I love hopscotch(formerly postwoman) https://hoppscotch.io/ thank me later

Sublinks Aims to Be a Drop-In Replacement for Lemmy ( wedistribute.org )

Seems like an interesting effort. A developer is building an alternative Java-based backend to Lemmy's Rust-based one, with the goal of building in a handful of different features. The dev is looking at using this compatibility to migrate their instance over to the new platform, while allowing the community to use their apps of...

MashedTech ,

Next step, is to remake Lemmy in JavaScript. Pure JavaScript, no typescript, only express, nothing else

What happens when the car becomes too old and they decide to drop that version of the API the car is talking with? Huh? That's another problem with these with "critical service but it can only go through us", when they change their mind you get fucked.

MashedTech ,

I've had regular software issues like this in the past and it's such a pain to deal with and fix. Even going through customer support is painful, because it's not supposed to be this way so it's more than likely because of this the customer support experience will be long and you'll go through more people. And I don't want to even imagine how it is to have to deal with these issues on critical software and devices and to not get priority support. You feel powerless and broken.

MashedTech ,

Cool stuff, but I don't see a reason to ditch raindrop.io

MashedTech ,

I'm very curious... Why do you feel locked in by raindrop? I like that it can regularly upload exports to my Google drive and I can Always download them as html and csv.

MashedTech ,

My bad.

MashedTech ,

My only problem with them is the android app, while it has nice features it’s soo slow that even on flagship phones it is hard to use, and when you have multiple accounts switching between them is awful, either the files won’t load or it won’t refresh the interface at all. I usually switch the workspace and then restart the app. Sometimes I can’t open the subfiles of a file until I restart the app and wait for it to load.

MashedTech ,

Idk, from what I heard the iOS version of the app is really performant and optimized.

MashedTech ,

I swear. I quit using iTerm and moved to Kitty because it was too inefficient and was eating up my battery on the go. There are so many apps that are just diguised browsers that eat too much memory and processing power and they make needing a powerful machine a requirement if you want to have multiple apps open. It’s getting to a ridiculous point and it’s inconvenient.

MashedTech ,

Well with react native you still have to deal with the native problem which a developer doesn’t want to deal with, you know… You could… But if they really cared about making the app efficient and well they would have had a different decision making process… People nowadays don’t really just the right tool for the job, they just have a tool and try to turn it in a universal hammer and solve everything with it

MashedTech ,

I honestly think CLI control is essential in any app. Because this is the most rudimentary and accessible way for other apps and scripts to interact with the apps features and control over the system.

I love Gitlab as a git hosting platform. I like that it is open source. My problem is they’re pricing plan forced me to move to GitHub. I don’t use their DevOps stuff so paying even 19$/month per user for a lot of features I don’t need sucks, and hosting it my own is a headache I don’t want to deal with because we’re not that big. GitHub isn’t a choice I make out of preference for my private commercial projects… Jetbrains space even though it is nice isn’t best for me because even though it has git hosting it has a lot of other stuff that I don’t want yet again, I work with all kinds of people, non technical as well and it makes no sense yet again. I also use tools or platforms that don’t integrate with git directly but with GitHub or GitLab… which fucking sucks honestly… also look at netlify… you need an ENTERPRISE plan to connect to a self-manget Gitlab repo. Like the shit these platforms are pulling IS UNBELIEVABLE. AndGiitness looks to be a commercial product, so clearly they’ll also be pushing and spending money to make sure other platforms work with them and only thing that matters is the features they add and their pricing plan… I hope they become a good competitor to these big Git hosting platforms and a viable alternative.

As much as Git should have been a decentralized solution that is free and open to be used by anyone because we’re not using Git in a vacuum but with a lot of other external tools and platforms, because of how tools and platforms are built we actually end up in a very centralized and controlled status quo. ://////// it fucking sucks.

Please point out where I am wrong and come up with your own ideas and solutions. I am really curious.

Certbot is great. Let's Encrypt is great. ( lemmy.world )

I’ve been downloading SSL certificates from my domain provider, using cat to join them together to make the fullchain.pem, uploading them to the server, and myself adding a 90 day calendar reminder. Every time I did this I’d think I should find out about this Certbot thing....

MashedTech ,

Yes it is, I love using cert-manager on my list cluster.

MashedTech ,

You and with plugins to sort the classes order it’s so much easier to read and debug.

MashedTech ,

Also warp is slooooow… And like I thought iTerm was fast and then discovered how much battery on my m1 Mac it was eating. I’m just a kitty user in the end with good zsh extensions managed by antigen(oh-my-zsh is bloated) and I’m living the good life.

MashedTech ,

Basically if it brings them enough data it stays, otherwise, it dies. Look at Google domains.
