So I have a two monitor setup, and I really dislike how gnome only lets you have the bar on the primary screen unless you install a plugin that is very outdated and I cannot get working on the latest version of gnome or use dash to dock, and I am not a fan of the dock style…...
I was reading GitLab’s documentation (see link) on how to write to a repository from within the CI pipeline and noticed something: The described Docker executor is able to authenticate e.g. against the Git repository with only a private SSH key, being told absolutely nothing about the user’s name it is associated with....
It’s a blessing and a curse. I have two gitlab accounts on the same server - private and work. I can’t use the same key for both as the key is used to distinguish git users, and git doesn’t make it easy to select which key you want to use to pull or clone particular repo.
I could but then i can’t simply copy the “clone” url from the projects page without editing it.
I think the best solution for me may be to have a separate user account in the OS for work and personal projects. That way i can just log off at the end of the day and use personal account for personal stuff.

Let’s not forget the scooters are very compact, you can easily bring one into the office, shop, bus. A bicycle needs to be locked outside, often exposed to the wearher and could be stolen. I’d say it’s more of a factor than bicycle costing more effort to move around.
Bicycles also have more moving parts, needs more maintenance i assume than electric scooter that has a direct drive motor with no chain or gears.
If you drive less than 1 mile per day it sounds like you shouldn’t have to drive at all. It’s walking distance - is your destination not reachable on foot?
Bicycle is a great investment. I go to my lidl by bike as much as possible and do proper shopping with single Pannier bag. It’s farther than yours, but it’s also easier to carry more stuff on a bike.
Gnome is nice and minimalist. It’d be nice tto have built in extension by default to keep the dock always visible without having to activate it in top left corner (very unergonomic considering that the dock is at the bottom). It’s unacceptable that you have to install a plugin to keep it on, as a beginner user I didn’t even know to install extension manager and what extension to install.
KDE on the other hand is too busy and complicated for new users.
They added a lot of things since XP that I enjoy, like window management, multiple desktops. I don’t know if they were specifically requested by windows users, but contrary to your opinion they are welcome changes. Users don’t always know what they want.
The two-bedroom penthouse comes with sweeping views of the Eiffel Tower and just about every other monument across the Paris skyline. The rent, at 600 euros a month, is a steal....
The first paragraph literally says “two bedroom penthouse”. If that’s cramped by your standards, you must be an American.
Some people like living in cities. It’s convenient, you have shops and other amenities close by, and don’t need a car to go anywhere. Paris also has a decent metro.
My main issue with ebooks is not being able to sell them. I prefer them to physical books when reading, but once I’m done with a book, i don’t think I’ll ever read it again so I’d rather sell it to recoup the cost.

It is unreasonable if they are not the one providing payment infra.
They already charge developers 100$ pa for the app store account. If that doesn’t cover their costs, they can increase it, but going after 3rd party payments is pure greed.
It’s incorrect. I would comparing to fuel consumption in a car based on how many times you turned. If you make more turns on your way, it would seem your car is more efficient, when in reality there’s very little relation between turns and fuel usage, just like there is little relation between number of blocks mined and transactions.
False. Mining is what uses electricity (and water) in bitcoin, not transactions. Adding more transactions does not add to the cost. Calculating consumption per transaction is misleading as the two are not related.
What does add to the cost is complexity, and complexity is calculated based on number of miners in the network in order to achieve the sweet spot of 1 block every 10 mins (if i remember correctly). If there’s a lot of competition, each miner will have to use more electricity to win.
But does it account for manufacturing of the plastic cards, delivering it to the user, and the added expense of the extra weight when carrying it around? /s
