Our garbage trucks already have been for years… I learned that when I got an “overloaded bin” fine, with a video of my neighbor’s bin being dumped as “evidence.” I had to do a dispute and make them reverse it, not because I care about a dollar or whatever insignificant fine amount, but because, like… fuck off with that shit, you know?

This hit way too close to home lol

Yep. Keeping up to date is a never ending battle. I try to do it often so they don’t pile up and break a ton of shit all at once. If you’re into gitops, I’m a big fan of using renovate to help automate things.

For sure. Simplifies querying the data too, since you won’t need to deal with multiple data sources in grafana.

TIL Promtail is going EOL. I’ve been using it forever. Guess I’m gonna have to figure out how to migrate to alloy too if that’s meant to be its successor. At home and at work lol.

You should be able to just add a scrape config to your existing deployment of prometheus

Yep, actual can do this sort of forecasting with schedules

I think this probably still won’t do what you want, but actual-helpers has a script that will track the balance of an investment account. It won’t track shares or funds separately or anything, but it could maybe be enough if your goal is just net worth tracking?

I’m waiting for them to get rid of the send-to-kindle email thing to receive books from calibre. I’m surprised it has survived for this long. I’ve wanted to try out a kobo but can’t justify it cause my 10+ year old kindle still works perfectly fine for reading. But once they remove that feature or drop support for my device, it’s kobo time.

If the machine can’t wash it then it was unworthy to begin with. Dishes too.

Why do I keep seeing companies blame shit like this on “a software glitch”? Like, fuckin, no it’s not. And no one believes your bullshit either.

Water? Like out the gulf?
