  • I also have a similar side project planned for a revamp. Successfully made a v1 with grease monkey (vanilla JS) + stylish back in maybe 2016. Super dangerous to keep firefox 56 running only for this front-end. Just need to do the v2 then migrate to latest librewolf.

    I want to redo the whole thing in Vue, client side routing with build step. The problem is that

    • site is not open source
    • no API doc (but I already made my own)
    • required log-in (no sensitive info)
    • some route request must be made from that domain due to CORS

    My goal is not to change the UI but wipe the whole page and start over with custom API call instead. V1 do this by visiting a 404 route to stop unnecessary load and use my own URL param for the API call. For bonus cringe I used local storage for database.

    Ended up having to use userscript, and now I’m kinda stuck with how to mash Vite build and tamper/violent monkey together :(
    Do you have any suggestion or resource I can learn more on this?








  • Can you explain a bit more about “zooming, different levels of detail” you mention? Maybe break them down to separate issue you are having with the library, what does it do, what do you want that it’s not doing. If there is a way to tweak it then you don’t have to build the component from scratch.

    But if you already abandoned the idea of tweaking timeline-js then you can have full control in vue, have to build it yourself though. Start by breaking the functionality of the timeline into separate interaction. From a quick look, timeline-js just make style attribute reactive. Have a box? good. Now put really long div in it with placeholder texture. Can you drag/scroll it? no? grab a suitable function from vueuse and make it scrollable. Follow with markers, zoom, dummy event items, data fetching (the actual width, marker spacing, events placement can be calculated from timestamp in json after this step), lazy loading, styling, animation, so on.

    I don’t know how much experience do you have with each things required (html, css, js, vue) so it is a bit difficult to give useful answer.










  • Bun is designed as a drop-in replacement for Node.js. It natively implements hundreds of Node.js and Web APIs, including fs, path, Buffer and more.

    The goal of Bun is to run most of the world’s server-side JavaScript and provide tools to improve performance, reduce complexity, and multiply developer productivity.

    If it can replace node and pnpm at the same time then this sounds quite good actually.

    EDIT
    https://bun.sh/guides/ecosystem/vite

    While Vite currently works with Bun, it has not been heavily optimized, nor has Vite been adapted to use Bun’s bundler, module resolver, or transpiler.

    Bun supports Nuxt out of the box. Initialize a Nuxt app with official nuxi CLI.




  • I try not to mess with my my current windows desktop setup too much if I don’t have to (mission critical). It’s not on VM.
    Would love to do it with LUKS/EXT4 if possible but it’s not supported on windows (am I correct?)

    If I use VC then I have to install it on both win and linux and also any additional machine I intend to decrypt with, that’s quite unwieldy compare to LUKS. I also have lobotomized my current install to cripple spying and broke it to the point it can not update to support wsl.

    Seems like bitlocker is a proper solution for the moment. Or just do two partitions (maybe two drives), encrypt one with LUKS, wipe everything unencrypted when done using it.


  • Linux Windows Preparation
    LUKS LUKS no can do / unless WSL
    LUKS ??? cryptsetup
    LUKS VeraCrypt ???
    VeraCrypt VeraCrypt VeraCrypt GUI from either
    ??? BitLocker Format with NTFS in Windows

    I’m still a bit confused with veracrypt… The docs make it sounds like vc use its own format.
    Can the drive be prepared with LUKS and then decrypt in windows with veracrypt? If not, I might just use bitlocker until I drop windows.
