Do you run a home server 24/7 ? (not talking about a remote vps here but actual hardware you run at your place)

@boilingsteam Question: does a machine running 24/7 when one's away but 16/7 (sleeps at night to save on fan noise) when one's home count?
(Counted it as a "Yup" anyway 😅)

Oh no! I seem to have missed #libremonday yesterday!
Regardless, my slightly-delayed shoutout of the week goes to.. @thunderbird! With support for multiple inboxes, calendars, contacts, and (best of all, IMHO) RSS/Atom feed (and even XMPP), it's great way to reassert control over your inbox and newsfeed, and not be subservent to Google's innocent followup reminders or social media's incessant infinite-scroll content. 🎉
All of that available at your nearest package manager! 📦

So, apparently it's #LibreMonday? Let's see.. shotout to @kdenlive who save their projects as real #mlt framework files, meaning I could easily hook them up to a build pipeline and generate all my output videos with a single command! 🎉 💚 #floss and open data formats for the win!

Here's a #MathsPuzzle / #MathPuzzle I pondered a while back.

Modify the 8-queens problem so that queens are black or white, and rule that it's OK for same-colour queens to be in line – they didn't want to capture each other anyway.

So, how many queens can you place on a chessboard such that:

  1. no queen attacks an opposite-coloured one
  2. the number of black and white queens differ by at most 1. (Excludes boring answers like 64)

This layout of 16 was my first try, but it's not the best.

@simontatham Made a quick'n'dirty playground that automatically places the white queens and any "free" black queens and keeps track of the score: https://editor.p5js.org/bojidar-bg/sketches/lNSWC-HDF
