As an example of what's possible with GPT4. Client wanted DNS auth in Letsencrypt instead of HTTPS, so we can close incoming port 80. They're using a registar with a proprietary API. With ChatGPT I created a certbot plugin in about 10 minutes, feeding it a pdf with API description.
I know how to do every step of this myself, but it's a 4-8 hour task to research the registar's API and how certbot plugins interface. Instead, I took another 15 minutes to review the code, ran it, and it's done.
Which model is that? I tried several ones that were complete trash, then Mixtrail appeared and starting giving answers that are very basic but mostly factually correct. But none of these are even close to ChatGPT that I can rely on with writing scripts.
Don't get me wrong, I'd rather not give them my data and money if there was an alternative. But for tech stuff we're not there yet.
Maybe go through the settings and see if something tv-related is disabled.
This prompted me to open Tempo I have installed from F-Droid but haven't used in a while, and the app crashed on startup. Logcat had the most unusual message:
03-27 18:40:31.304 W/GooglePlayServicesUtil(6188): com.cappielloantonio.tempo requires the Google Play Store, but it is missing.
Two pitfalls I had that you can avoid:
- look at efficiency. It's not always neglible, was like 40% of my energy usage because I oversized the UPS. The efficiency is calculated from top power the UPS can supply. 96% efficient 3kW UPS eats 4% of 3kW, 120 watts, even if the load you connected is much smaller than 3kW
- look at noise level. Mine was loud almost like a rack server, because of all the fans.
I replaced that noisy, power hungry beast with a small quiet 900W APC and I couldn't be happier
Why do I hear the argument about no .desktop entries in every thread like this? Creating a .desktop file is a requirement for the appimage creation tools to work, and appimaged installs it in the system menu immediately. It's seamless.
ncdu -x / will only show you the files stored on / without counting /mnt and other partitions.
You can usually delete files (not directories!) in /var/log safely
I got my phone after 5 years of waiting too, it's a nice paperweight. I power it on twice a year, do a full update, play for an hour and put it back in the drawer.
Pine phone is a nice gadget but I don't think they contribute to software development as much as Purism does. Not that I recommend buying anything from Purism because of their business practices.
No no, that's how i'm working around the problem now, but i'm sure sni sniffing will sooner or later make my domain well known
Matrix came 15 years after XMPP, so the question should be: why is Matrix preferable? Does it bring anything to the table, other than fragmentation?
