"Paris has closed more than 100 streets to motor vehicles, tripled parking fees for SUVs, removed roughly 50,000 parking spots, and constructed more than 1,300 kilometers of bike lanes since Mayor Anne Hidalgo took office in 2014. Those changes have contributed to a 40% decline in air pollution..."

Bought a regular old alarm clock so that my day doesn't start with me reaching for my phone from now on. Here's to hoping this works!

@passthejoe I see stories like that and marvel at the fact that I paid $900 for the 20mb hard drive that used to run my BBS back in the 80's

@passthejoe falling 12% short on size off the initial format is somewhat concerning, i wonder how it fares with write cycles. (I've had so many cheaper "high capacity" cards essentially start losing sectors after the first write....and no I don't mean just the amazon knockoff chips using smaller bits of memory in a ring buffer)

At that initial degradation it's barely bigger than the sandisk 1.5tb cards.

Now that I have my first company computer since before COVID, my use of Linux and BSD will be more extracurricular.

On Friday I kept the personal laptop running OpenBSD all day because it's better behaved when it comes to reliably suspending and resuming.

Again, if you haven't run OpenBSD on the desktop in years, things have come a very long way.

@passthejoe Collabora Online is LibreOffice in the browser and a good excuse for setting up your own nextcloud server.

@vwbusguy@mastodon.online avatar

@passthejoe Yeah, that's a general rule for newer RPI. The performance is better with usb. That said, I'm still using a microsd for my Pi's. It's not so much that you can't, but that your experience will very likely be better with usb.

@passthejoe Could try PortableApps? I used to have a flash drive with a bunch of apps on yesteryear that came in handy more than once.

@passthejoe @vwbusguy I think you should be looking at NextcloudPi:

@passthejoe I had half setup Hugo and started using it for a hot minute, never migrated site to it but it’s still on my agenda, some day. I just read about TinaCMS the other day, and I can’t even look at it, because I don’t want any ideas. Ideas are bad news. 😂
