Guido Van Rossum would disagree. And he also stepped down.

Google should have called it JIF, not WebP in c/showerthoughts@lemmy.world

What can I do with an old Compaq PC other than recycle it? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.world

No websites will work, some there are new SSL encryption thingies which the old browsers don't know. And new browsers surely won't run on this PC.

Can a Russian pls confirm in c/lemmyshitpost@lemmy.world

Alter, wenn du noch länger doof agierst, dann gebe ich dir eine Schelle, sodass zwei Wochen lang dein Kopf wackelt.

Listen young man... Boomers INVENTED the original internet!

Ansible Playbook - How do I reverse engineer a running system? in c/selfhosted@lemmy.world

[–] abecede@lemmy.world 9 points 3 months ago (4 children)

Could you elaborate a little bit about "full of bugs" and "non-obvious behaviour"? I use Ansible at work for a couple of years already and never encountered anything like that. (I have about 10 playbooks, about 30 roles, about 20 linux servers that I administer)

What do I actually need? in c/selfhosted@lemmy.world

[–] abecede@lemmy.world 4 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Raspberry Pi 4 (with its linux distribution) and an external usb hard drive attached. Install whatever service you want on it. I have Jellyfin and openproject (previously redmine) on it. This mini thingy sits without monitor, keyboard or mouse somewhere next to my router and connected with an ethernet cable. Works flawlessly.

As an 80ies kid: Impossible Mission on my Commodore 64... "Another visitor... Stay a while! Staaay foreveerrr!"

European Citizens' Initiative to "Stop Destroying Videogames" is missing ridiculously low thresholds. in c/retrogaming@lemmy.world

Great initiative! Never heard of it before. Austria should have one more vote now :)

Self Hosted OpenSource Projectmanagement Tool in c/selfhosted@lemmy.world

[–] abecede@lemmy.world 4 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

OpenProject has some nice solution for documents: https://www.openproject.org/docs/user-guide/documents/ and https://www.openproject.org/docs/user-guide/file-management/ . Aren't these enough for you?

Also: OpenProject includes a good wiki for a project. It's in many cases a better alternative to a document storage, since there is no "download - edit - upload" workflow, so there are no race conditions. (i.e. two people download a doc, edit the doc independently and whoever uploads last "wins" while deleting the previous uploaders changes.)

What would be your farttone? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.world

Castelul Bran (Bran Castle - tourists' "Dracula" residence), Transylvania, Romania (lemmy.world)

The castle is open for visits (entry fee 70 Lei which is about 15€)

Commonly known outside Transylvania as Dracula's Castle, it is marketed as the home of the title character in Bram Stoker's Dracula. There is no evidence that Stoker knew anything about this castle, which has only tangential associations with Vlad the Impaler, voivode of Wallachia, who shares his name with Dracula. Stoker's description of Dracula's crumbling fictional castle also bears no resemblance to Bran Castle.

The castle is now a museum dedicated to displaying art and furniture collected by Queen Marie. Tourists can see the interior on their own or by a guided tour. At the bottom of the hill is a small open-air museum exhibiting traditional Romanian peasant structures (cottages, barns, water-driven machinery, etc.) from the Bran region.
