  • So if the housing market crashed like really bad, by say everybody owning multiple homes being suddenly unable to afford the loans for that many homes, what would happen?

    The banks would have to repossess the properties. And sell them on the market, but with many homes to sell, the price would come down crashing.

    One can dream.





  • I’ve used truenas scale (comes with k3s preinstalled) and I ended up fucking up the cluster on accident a couple of times (mostly because of power outages), I’ve since moved over to Debian and a manual kubeadm install. Will make upgrading the cluster a bit more painful, but so far it’s stable (ish, I have had issues with the Nvidia containerd backend)


  • If you need a UI, flutter is great, but for a complete beginner it has a bit of a learning curve.

    Maybe you could start with a small PWA (progressive web app) using Javascript or typescript. You can do it all in the front-end for something small like this, though you won’t be able to implement some features like synchronization across devices



  • I personally don’t care too much about the headphone jack (or lack thereof) when buying a new phone. That being said, for someone that doesn’t care all that much about audio quality, Bluetooth headphones are just fine, and I prefer having a more water resistant phone (maybe I just bought into the marketing on that point, but it seems harder to waterproof a phone when there are holes in it, though the usb port is still there as a weak point so…)

    I’ve just accepted that the lack of headphone jack is the new norm.







  • My company didn’t leave me a choice, I got an XPS 15 which I had to setup with my distro of choice (but all the internal tooling is for Ubuntu, I personally would have preferred to install Fedora or Debian 12 with i3wm).

    It’s not that bad a laptop but it overheats like crazy and has really shit battery life (barely enough for a meeting), and some of its features I can’t explain : why is a 4k touchscreen on a laptop a good thing? It eats 4x the battery for no noticeable visual improvement. I don’t use my laptop 5 inches from my face.
