I tried Grocy for a while, but eventually stopped. Data entry was a huge pain.

Using the iOS companion app to scan grocery items into the app resulted in data issues that prevented me updating the item in the web app later. The only recourse was to add the items by hand in the web app, but then go in to each one separately with the mobile app to register the barcode. This also resulted in losing the additional metadata about the products that the mobile app would automatically configure if you onboarded the items through the mobile app, as it was able to look up additional data online and prefill a lot of stuff.

At the end of the day, it was too much of a hassle. I do like the idea, and may come back to Grocy again, but for now I have to pass.

Because they get you places.

You didn’t happen to change an unprivileged container to privileged, or vice versa, after creating it, right? Doing so can break filesystem permissions, which could have resulted in something like this.

Clickbait title. What the article says is that honey made by Kelulut bees, which is considered a premium product, is being counterfeited by taking regular honey and adding things like vinegar to it to try and make it taste the same.

The honey is still real honey, it’s just not made by Kelulut bees.

There are two kinds of datacenter admins, those who aren’t using VMWare, and those who are migrating away from VMWare.

20 years ago I worked for a grocery company that introduced self checkout terminals. Corporate messaging was that no jobs would be lost. They now run 6 self checkouts in most stores with a single clerk managing them.

It may be true that they didn’t directly let anyone go, but even if they just let attrition do the job, those positions are gone and never coming back.

A garbage article citing garbage sources.

All of that still works for me. Snapping is fine. And you can swap input/output direction when placing a conveyor lift by pressing R.

If saving money is a concern, and I had an iPhone 12 (actually I do, but just the regular Pro, not the Max) then I’d stick with what I had, for a number of reasons. The big two being a) existing investment in the ecosystem - most of us have spent hundreds of dollars on apps over the years, and b) the iPhone 12 is not bad tech, and should last for years with nothing more than a battery replacement.

tl;dr: It’s a false positive. The headline makes it sound like an intentional classification, but that’s not the case. Also, they fixed the problem two days ago.

You’re taking it too literally, and missing much of the nuance between philosophy of design and actual implementation details.

The movies app manages movies. That’s its one thing. No need to overcomplicate it. Unix ‘find’ for instance, finds files. That’s its one thing. ‘find’ also lets you filter the results, but that doesn’t change its purpose of finding files.

The fact that *arr apps don’t do things, or are bad at things, has nothing to do with the Unix philosophy. Were these apps combined into a monolith, the same issues would need to be addressed.

There is no right or wrong in a design philosophy. It’s all trade offs. I don’t know anyone who says Unix (or the metaverse) is successful because of a design philosophy. What matters is what you deliver.

I do wish I didn’t need to run a second Radarr instance to have both 1080p and 4K media.
