I also got mine recently! Definitely agree with the rough around the edges part. This is definitely an artisanal, hand-rolled, music player. It… doesn’t seem very durable. Mine rattles when I move it…
I bought it to support open source and because I’m hoping it’ll last a long time. (As long as I don’t move it too much.)
But I dont wanna use my phone. Usually, I try to keep that as far away as possible.
I wanted touch screen and Android

Standard Notes
Is Standard Notes owned/made by Proton??
Even better!
surely you are not surprised that given a candidate that shows some interest, and a candidate that doesn’t care, the company would prefer the former.
Definitely. That’s why I lie.
if someone else is, then they will probably be easier to work with.
I actually really challenge this point. Specifically because I don’t care, I would say I’m very easy to work with. Example: Did the manager just order us to do something really stupid? Sounds good to me! I’m on it, boss! On the other hand, I’ve worked with tons of people who care way too much. Sometimes it seems like they think it’s their company. Those people are hard to work with.
The order doesn’t even have to be stupid, it can just be something the passionate employee disagrees with. At a previous company, we were told to make some app work because we had an important demo coming up. One super passionate dude on my team almost derailed us because he insisted that we fix the app the “correct” way. In theory, he was correct, however in practice he was dead wrong.
I didn’t care either way, so I just made the thing work.
I could say “I noticed you use MQTT for networking the pots…
Yeah, this is the same game I play. I avoid answering their question of “Why FlowerPot.ly?” and just give some generic answer that applies to any company, not specifically FlowerPot.ly. I would also throw in some lies like, “My brother owns an IoT flower pot. I think it’s so cool!”.
Probably nothing because I would waste the time thinking about what I should do.
Imagine you got 3 job offers … the interviewer wants to know why his company is the one you’d choose
Because you expressed interest in hiring me? And I need a job? So I’m here? I’d also be perfectly content picking the other 2 companies if it’s the same salary.
What caught your eye about this job posting?
The fact that you guys said you were hiring?
they’d prefer someone who is interested
I guess this is the real problem. I don’t care about your company. I’m here to exchange my time for money. I have my own interests and they don’t involve working at your company.
But, yes fine. I understand this is the game I have to play. I will lie to you and tell you that it’s been my dream since I was a little kid to work at your dumb company, selling shit that no one needs or tricking people into giving you money.
One company that asked me this made… let’s say IoT flower pots (something mundane like that)… I guess I’m supposed to say: OMG! I. LOVE. CONNECTED. FLOWER. POTS! How did humanity survive without internet connected flower pots??! My sole purpose in life is to help make IoT flower pots. Please allow me to join you guys! 🙇♀️🙇♀️🙇♀️
Is it not possible to have something like this?
Sorry, I meant it’s up my alley to have this phone up my ally.
I’m in the middle of job interviews right now. I hate this question so much.
I want to work here because I need money! WTF are you talking about??? Are you a real human??
Hahahaha. He’s saying he doesn’t approve of my tastes in phones.
The whole workflow and philosophy of sourcehut is so different than GitHub though. I think a lot more people would be interested in GitHub, but federated.
There’s also this which some people may care about.
Forgejo is implementing federation
Interesting!
I don need it… I don need it… I definitely don need it…
Uh… I wonder what the reviews will be like… this is definitely up my ally alley… Dang it, Lemmy.
Update: fixed spelling.
Let’s all move to Lemmy!!!
Hold strong!
You’ll never fail anything if you don’t try! This guys figured it out!
Semi-manual tracking with YNAB. My bank doesn’t offer an OAuth2 API and there’s no way in hell I’m giving Plaid my bank credentials. So, I just download a transactions file and upload that to YNAB.
I know people here will probably recommend https://actualbudget.org/ which seems like a YNAB-clone (in a good way). But the reason I went with YNAB is because they have a ton of docs and videos about how YNAB works and budgeting in general. ActualBudget seems to be targeted at people who already know what they’re doing (not me).
YNAB/Actual might be different than Mint, though. YNAB is based on envelope budgeting, as opposed to just collecting spending metrics. I haven’t used Mint in a very long time, not sure if it’s changed since.
I might be having this issue. When I update an item the UI doesn’t get updated. However, if I refresh the UI by searching for something else, then go back to my updated item, I see the new values.
It’s really annoying.
I installed via pacman.
