Sorry for my late reply. Yes we’ve talked about that but the result is essentially that I either have to get it together and deal with having kids in the future, or she’ll leave. From her side it’s not an option to not have kids—currently at least.
According to my wife, I do indeed have a decent amount of rope on my person. Though I don’t know how that has anything to do with entering the US, I’ll take the safe route and stay home.
First there is a fork of Organic Maps, which is called CoMaps. If I understood it correctly, the development on Organic Maps nearly halted for some reason regarding the company that owns it. CoMaps now wants to pick it up again.
Also for navigation I use Magic Earth. It uses OSM data but is not FOSS itself, which is unfortunate. But it offers traffic data which is crucial for good arrival time estimation or avoiding traffic jams.
I think it’s mostly a matter of taste. Iirc Darktable offers more advanced options in regards to developing RAW files compared to RawTherapee. I moved from Lightroom directly to Darktable and I’m very happy with it. But maybe just try both and see what feels better to you.
I also have ADHD and am in a similar struggle. I’m male and my wife really wants to have kids. I wanted that too in the past, but I’m very afraid of not being able to handle the constant stress. Eventhough I’m medicated, I still have days frequently, where everything’s just too much. Throwing a child into the mix and I feel like I would probably have to put myself into a closed psychiatric.
So I can not help you there I’m afraid. But what caught my eye is, that you say your relationship is / was hanging by a thread. That’s absolutely not a good base for getting children. Broken or weak relationships won’t get stronger with a child. They’ll break sooner or later and then the kid has to cope with divorced parents. I know you said that you both feel better now, but please keep that in mind and be sure, that you are strong together before getting a child, because it will get stressful and will test you and your relationship.
I wish you all the best though and what ever your final decision will be, it will be the correct one.
IANAL so please don’t take my word for it. But if I understood it correctly, this is indeed legal. You don’t have to offer your stuff for free. And as long as you let the user decide if they want to pay with money or with data, it’s legal. The important part is, that the user needs to give consent, which is the case here. Not talking about the morality of it though.
Every car I owned so far was a manual and only rentals were sometimes automatic. But that’s purely due to cost. I dive out of necessity, not for fun and an automatic is so much more relaxing in stop-and-go rush hour traffic than a manual stick shift.
I need to look it up again, but I read about a study that showed that the results improve if you tell the AI that your job depends on it or similar drastic things. It’s kinda weird.
Does anyone have resources for ADHD friendly clean-up techniques? And I don’t mean cleaning-up like in “removing dirt” but how to sort your stuff? My main chaos exists because I don’t know where to put everything.
Thank you again for this great post!
I’m a little skeptical about Manjaro on the ZOTAC. I used it for quite some time on a PC but it was always just a matter of time until it broke due to version conflicts. Developers for AUR packagages assume that you’re using the main Arch repo. So when you use the Manjaro repo, which is always a few weeks behind the official Arch one, the AUR updates break pretty regularly. Though you probably don’t want to use the AUR on a handheld anyway.
I’d hope so too, but as there are so few platforms offering proper support for hardware keys, I wouldn’t hold my breath for it.
What you call “much smaller mini edition” is still more extensive and thorough than 99% of posts on this platform :D and I really enjoy and appreciate it!
That and also typing on a wet touch screen doesn’t work that well
Thank you again for this high quality post! It’s always a pleasure to read.
I’m happy that GOG finally added proper F2A, though I’m a little sad that they didn’t implement FIDO U2F. It’s not only way more convenient to just use a hardware token as a second factor, but if my knowledge is correct, it’s also more secure.
I seriously thought about getting a waterproof notepad for that reason
I see your point, but we have Java backends and strings there are not null terminated. Also I’m very sure that those would never be the reason for our Postgres server to run out of storage so I don’t get it why not make it more user friendly. We’re not implenting an embedded system where every byte of storage counts.
It can also be just a randomly chosen limit. I work as a software engineer on a custom management software for a big client. For whatever reason until recently, the limit for email addresses in the master data was 50 character. Why? No clue but someone had decided that randomly in the past. Now it was increased to 100. Why again? According to RFC 5321 a limit of 254 would be the most sensible one. But the people who come up with those requirements just don’t care. They decided it to be 100 from now on for no apparent reason.
Then we have many input fields, that have a limit of 255 character. Why not 256? Why such a weird number in general? The people who use this software in production are most likely not the ones who usually think in powers of two. So why not make it 250 or 300 oder whatever?
Sometimes those limits are just arbitrary with no technical or logical reason to back them up. Which doesn’t make it less stupid mind you.
And if you need it in a browser, there is Collabora, which exists as a paid business version with support or a free non-support version, that can easily be deployed with Nextcloud. Another alternative would be CryptPad.
If you also need your mails in your browser, there are multiple providers like mailbox.org that offer mail encryption even through the online mail interface.
That’s some weird automatic sharpening. Use the digital zoom on your phone and and take a picture of trees or hay or whatever. Then you’ll have the same artifacts. I wish there was a way to turn it off.
Thank you for your amazing posts! I really enjoy them!
You probably won’t gain much right now, but as the development on Organic Maps has stalled, you might encounter bugs not being fixed, no new features etc. If it stays like that, you’d probably want to switch at some point.
