And if you don’t have easy access to 5 min epoxy, you could go with the super glue + baking soda trick for a similarly strong and hard bond: https://gluetips.com/super-glue-and-baking-soda/

Reminds me of the tyre store that spreads tacks on the road 100m away from their store in the oncoming lanes.
People get a flat, and oh what do you know! A tyre store! What a lucky coincidence.
I asked this question ages ago and it was pointed out that “sub” isn’t a reddit specific term. It’s been short for “subforum” since the first BBSes, so it’s basically a ubiquitous internet term.
“Sub” works because everybody already knows what you mean and it’s the word you intuitively reach for.
You can call them “communities” if you want, but it’s longer and can’t easily be shortened.
I just call them subs now.
After checking out more options, I think forgejo looks like a good place to start.
Thanks, yes, I’d far rather stick with a familiar and ubiquitous system unless I see a reason to switch. Thanks for the suggestion, I’ll keep it in mind.
After looking at that list, I think forgejo or gitea are what I’m looking for. I would prefer to stick with software as open as possible, so forgejo looks like where I’ll start. I love that they’re involved in federation and have a collective governance structure.
Oh, yeah, I meant open-core, not closed-core, but I’m still leery of software where they close off portions to make you want to pay. It gives them an incentive to make the open part of it worse.
Okay, maybe it won’t be my first port of call then.
Okay, thanks for the heads up.
A quick search found this: https://trac-hacks.org/wiki/TracKanbanBoardMacro
Looks like there are others too, I’ll play around and see what works for me.
Okay, I wasn’t able to review your links before so I just focussed on answering your question.
Trac looks the most promising of everything I’ve seen so far, I like that it’s minimal and also does basically everything I’m looking for in one place. I’ll give it a try first.
Thanks so much!
Okay, I’m looking into that, thanks. The open-core model is a little concerning for me - one of the things I hate about the proprietary stuff is all the gatekeeping you have to deal with, but if the other possibilities don’t pan out I’ll consider it.
Oh good question. I’m using it for personal software development, tracking new features, bugs and documenting my research.
I mostly use the kanban board view. I’ve wanted to add Confluence documentation pages but didn’t want to pay.
I’ll also be developing hardware soon.
Yup, no worries, i just appreciate the way he does things and wanted to share the info :)
Just fyi, Randall who makes xkcd has a very permissive approach and offers hotlinks on the site for easy embedding. I think he prefers that you hotlink rather than reupload.
I keep seeing people talk about Rust, and to be honest I never thought much about it because I’ve never had a reason to use it.
But when so many people in a programmer meme sub are saying “actually no joke Rust is amazing” that makes me pay attention.
So I looked into it and found this: https://github.blog/2023-08-30-why-rust-is-the-most-admired-language-among-developers/
Because the shaming tone is just infuriating. Yes, new people have problems with the system, shaming them by telling them their problems are “baffling” is tone-deaf.
Worse, if you have to shame people into using your system, it sends the message that Linux has serious problems that people need to be shamed into accepting. Shaming people into changing their behaviour basically never works by the way, outside of maybe a very insular village setting.
A better title might be, “Solutions to newcomers’s most common problems with Linux”, but the way it’s always phrased is, “Hey all the problems are going away and you’re frankly a teensy tiny brained baby if you’re not using Linux!” Like, maybe fuck off. Maybe show people that the community is capable of advertising itself with literally anything besides toxicity.
I have been on-board with the mission of Linux and hearing this “Hey the switch is actually easy!” gaslighting bullshit for 15 years now. I still haven’t managed to get rid of Windows 100%, and I honestly don’t want to ask for help from literally any Linux fanboy because they have proven themselves to be amongst the most rabidly condescending shits I’ve ever spoken to.
I’m doing my part I guess ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Ah, thank you, that makes a lot more sense. I guess I could’ve done like… the bare minimum of research or something.
Uuuhhhhh wait. So there have been 17 new versions released and people with 7.6 installs just missed it? I think I still have a 7.6 install and this is the first I’ve heard of this. I would love to know the history of how people are being advised to go from 7 to 24.
I also just learned of it.
