  1. Today years old when I learned about vim :s[ubstitute]! I set up a keyboard-only workstation in my office for some code related work tasks earlier this week, so getting more familiar with nvim has been an actual priority this weekend. I seem to remember owning a no starch press book on advanced vim motions like macros but can’t seem to find it in my library. #lazyfedi , anyone remember what it is?

  2. Some further info:

    • Turning airplane mode on and off didn’t fix it
    • A restart didn’t fix it
    • Private relay was off already

    But…

    …within 10 minutes of doing/checking the above, it now seems to not be happening! Gah!

    Will keep testing if/when it recurs.

  3. Help! Boost for reach, please!

    • iOS 26.6
    • iPhone SE (2020)
    • 4G and WiFi
    • Safari and app web views
    • No VPN or networking Config Profiles active

    First time I follow a link to a page or enter an address in Safari, it sits for ages, then I get the attached error message. This happens for most sites.

    If I hit refresh, it immediately works.

    Content blockers turned off, no adblockers (currently).

    If I tether to my phone the pages load immediately in Safari on my Mac.

    Loading in a web view does not solve Safari’s issue (and vice versa).

    Please only answer if:
    • You are currently experiencing, or have recently experienced, this particular behaviour
    • You have found a solution or have eliminated anything I don’t mention here explicitly

    If you’d prefer not to be blocked, please don’t respond if you’ve *not* experienced this problem, esp. with:
    • Gen AI “solutions” if *you* haven’t tried them *on this problem* and they’ve solved it
    • To say “Doesn’t happen for me” (even in jest [seriously – don’t do that!])
    • To advise me to “Get a real phone” (even in jest [seriously – don’t do that!])
    • To suggest “Have you tried…?” or “You should try…” (most esp. generic “reset network settings”-type responses)

  4. Hey anyone regular using a multi-network SIM/eSIM for data. Any recommendations for service / speed cost etc?

  5. Dear People With Feelings about Cameras,

    Do you have a recommendation for a compact/pocket camera that has some of the same mod cons that a smartphone would have (accurate location & timestamps in metadata, auto-upload to ideally Nextcloud), but that isn't actually a phone?

    I'd like to be able to use it to both take some close up indoor detail shots (see recent photos of model trains in my timeline) but also general photography when I'm on a derivé around town, or on holiday or whatever. Happy to pair via Bluetooth to a phone to get reliable metadata & uploads.

    Must be available from an actual physical shop in Sydney, budget up to something like the cost of a smartphone.

    TIA! Boots appreciated!

  6. Okay, #lazyfedi: I like NixOS, and my battery life is somehow better than on Arch, but the differences from a standard system are killing me.

    Also I'm a little worried about Arch, given I extensively used the AUR and it recently got pwned pretty hard.

    I like the rolling aspect of Arch, though!

    What distribution should I drop on my Framework 13 (and, soon, 13 Pro) next, friends? Is Arch actually okay again? Is there another distro that I might dig, or am I just hosed?

  7. Hey #LazyFedi, if I'm getting into self hosting on residential broadband to host services for friends and family. Should I

  8. hey #LazyFedi, is there any good app that isn't Facebook Messenger I can check my Facebook messages in?

    Looks like Pidgin is no longer in the Arch repos so idk

  9. What is the best iOS app for playing audio files from iCloud? Preferably with a decent CarPlay interface…

    I’ve tried:
    * Evermusic (ok, but it’s cumbersome to navigate)
    * MusicBox (no CarPlay, Dropbox only)
    * Steve (good iCloud, no CarPlay)
    * files.app (eh…)

  10. Does anybody happen to know the power series expansion for arcsin( k sin(x)) or do I have to derive it myself?

  11. Dear #Lazyfedi, what are you using for CI these days for (small scale) commercial projects?

    I've previously used CircleCI to good effect, but their semi-recent security disasters and now trying to make me pay for a bunch of slop features I don't need has put me off them.

    Any reccys?

    Boost appreciated! TIA! x

  12. On web pages that allow you to keep navigating and reading without clicking on the cookie banner, do we have Schrodinger's cookies or WTAF happens?

    Sorry, I am stupid, and didn't want to seem too stupid, but my curiosity got the better of me. Does anyone know? #lazyfedi

  13. It's Sunday afternoon, I'm back on my "trying to be a social net human" bullshit, and I realize I haven't maintained a personal website in far too long!

    #LazyFedi, what are folks using for Indieweb personal sites these days? Wordpress is a non-starter. I am "happy" to code up my own, but not if there's something that I like floating out there that I'm not yet familiar with!

  14. how do current slopcoding contraptions handle large comments? would a comment containing the entire script of bee movie waste all the tokens and fill the context window or are there smartass heuristics to skip over that kind of thing? #lazyfedi

  15. hey #lazyfedi why are pendrives always so horrendously hot and power-hungry? is it… is it all just waste heat from regulating 5V all the way down to some low 1.x with fucking LDOs or something??

  16. The closest I can think of is some kind of wiki, with one scan per wiki page, but I don't know of one that will do the metadata filtering/sorting and summary/thumbnail view.

    It doesn't need to be a web app -- a desktop app will do.

    Anyone got any recommendations of something that you've actually used like this?

  17. Dear Lazyfedi:

    I have some scans of a notebook, but I don't know what I could use to manage them. I want to be able to:

    * See a full page scan
    * Add metadata to the pages: at minimum, a sequence number and free-text tags
    * Being able to do my own structured metadata is a bonus (i.e. fields restricted to a dropdown)
    * Write & edit text (with some kind of markup) that can be shown next to a page
    * View all thumbnails with filtering and sorting on the metadata

  18. Anyone have one of these SimpleCom USB-C KVM switches?

    Know if it switches automatically as machines are plugged in/turned on or do you need to press the button?

    TIA!
