But it’s not just the cat. OP wants to track the foods the cat is eating and the allergens in the food, and then look for correlations and trends. You could manage most of that with a spreadsheet, but you’d have to update reference tables every time you add a new entry. OP wants something user friendly.

Perplexica? What sort of sauce goes with that?

For a minute I legit thought Italy had dropped a new pasta shape.

Just so everyone is clear on this, the airline isn’t trying to sell to a lower market. They’re trying to normalize higher prices for standard fares. By itemizing the things that are normally included, they can pin values on all of them and then make it seem like a deal to “upgrade”.

I remember learning that 3.5" disks were still called “floppy” disks, despite being rigid plastic. My teacher took apart a disk and showed us how the inside was a film, but all that did was encourage us to take apart the disks and make desk toys out of the springs.

Man, I remember when Zip Disks were a big deal and a GB was a lot of storage.

Don’t threaten me with a good time

They should be called narcissists, because their “conservative” beliefs shift to occupy precisely the space where they happen to live. If they personally benefit from the status quo, then they must defend the tradition. If they benefit from change, then it is a moral imperative that the world conform to their point of view. A rational person might call that hypocrisy, but it’s not really anything more than selfishness.

I love that this exists, and thank you for introducing me to the site as well.

I have an offer. How bout you don’t post advertisements to the community?

Step one, provide good service.

Netflix: Welp, I guess we should just pack it in.

That’s an awful lot of words for “Spotify is bullshit.”

I disagree about art. Art exists for art’s sake. It’s not a commercial product. I don’t have to pay to enjoy the Mona Lisa or the Bach. I might pay to enter a museum, or attend a performance, so I agree with you about entertainment, but art is different. Art enriches the world, improves life, expands understanding, and we should all of us pay for it with taxes. And we do!

Headline reads like Mad Libs.

Good point, but let’s say you download 20 new movies, meaning rewrite to every block on the drive each week. That’s barely 1,000 write cycles a year, and we’re still talking about a hundred thousand write cycles, which would take 100 years. Even if you start seeing bad blocks at 10,000 write cycles, by the time the drives are wearing out, the cost of replacement drives should be considerably lower.

Yep, and it used to be free for personal use, although I don’t know if that’s the case anymore. Either way, I will highly recommend it.

The write cycles shouldn’t really be an issue for a home NAS because you’re not erasing and rewriting over and over. For commercial projects, where logs, security video, or rotating data needs to be stored and erased hundreds of thousands of times.

Is ngrok still a thing?

When he says “That would have been great” is just…

Toby was pretty much spot on.

What do you use the Pi for now?

I had a bunch of Pi 3Bs sitting around, so I made piholes for a few friends and family, I made a dedicated MAME emulator that I never have time to play, and I gave one to each of my kids to learn about computers and linux. I also use one for work as a linux test environment for our software, but the 3 hardware doesn’t really keep up.

I would be very interested to read this in an article format, but I have zero interest in watching a video about it.

I haven’t done it myself, so I hesitate to recommend a specific project. But Carpi and OpenAuto are good places to start.

Why risk it? Build your own with a raspberry pi and a touchscreen.

Deanna said their family is accustomed to the legwork involved in travelling…

Why did you put a bunch of asterisks at the bottom of your post?

That mindset comes from somewhere. Drug addicts make for an easy, politically expedient target. It doesn’t just happen, and fighting that mindset means calling out the people creating scapegoats.

Yes, literally all foods will become more expensive. That’s what happens when you destroy the ecosystem for profit.

This is stupid on several levels, but I ain’t got time for all that so I’ll just point out that this lady wasn’t younger or healthier, given that she died without an organ transplant, and had she received a transplant she would be one of the vulnerable people on immunosupprressants. So even this stupid ass argument doesn’t apply in this situation.

Lol “digital artists.”

Most pirated content is pornography. While I do consider those performers and creators “artists,” the victims of piracy are the corporations and production companies that sell pornography. This is an industry rife with corruption and exploitation. The artists actually benefit from the, ahem, exposure, and the same can be said for television, movie, and music industries. Artists want people to pay to experience their art, but artists are better able to sell their art when the artist is well known. GoT was the most pirated TV show at it’s peak popularity, and the creatos said it was better for viewership than winning an Emmy.

Yes, piracy is analogous to stealing, semantics notwithstanding. But when art is a commodity, the capitalist, not the artist, is the primary beneficiary.

You could build a museum of horrible decisions and fill it with the last two seasons of Game of Thrones. Whether you watched it or not, the show was a cultural touchstone, and the ending retroactively ruined everything that came before. Many shows have started well and ended poorly, but I’d argue that GoT was on pace to be an all-time top ten series, and there was absolutely nothing good to say about how it ended. Bad writing, bad acting, bad production values, sloppy editing, poor visual design, it was both rushed and too slow, and nothing made sense. If you paid someone to deliberately fuck up everything about the show, they would not have been as effective at it because it would have been obvious.

17 Orangutans isn’t software, it’s just a bunch of apes I’m hosting in my basement server room. I trained one to answer level 1 trouble tickets, but manager said we need highly available maintenance processes. So, I got another container and put an orangutan inside it, and kept doing that until either we hit our KPI or we exhausted the budget.

Thank you for not just listing the names of some software. Everyone else in this thread is like “Crimble, JFlax, pIcomIco, Flerbl, and 17 Orangutans.”
