On the recommendation of a friend, the spiral wars series (https://spiral-wars-shepherd.fandom.com/wiki/Spiral_history).

It started slow (booting) but I'm enjoying the books (currently on #3), the universe-building and the length (10 books) of it.

This looks very interesting. Thanks for sharing!

I agree and I would pay for this service!

IIUC the cloud solution provides cloud-based storage|copies of the quicken file and accessibility through a less-functional web-based tool and Simplifi isn't compatible.

So, thanks again for the suggestion but these solutions won't work for me.

I was unaware that there is a cloud version and will investigate, thanks!

I strongly prefer my Linux machine but use Windows mostly so that I can run Quicken. I feel doubly trapped: can't get off Quicken and thus can't get off Windows.

I'm only very slightly less reluctant to get an Apple machine (though the M* chips tempt me) and there will probably be incompatibilities between the versions of Quicken.

I think I should probably rip off the band-aid and migrate to:

+ spreadsheets (more control/future proof) + gnucash or similar (and risk that going unmaintained) + Wine + something I've not considered

I live in a community in the Pacific Northwest that was built in 2018 and (almost) every home (22/23) has (Carrier) heat pumps; for some unknown reason, the other has heated floors.

Many of us are proponents of heat pumps thanks to reduced costs and emissions *but* we've not had a generally good experience possibly (!) as a result of bad installation and definitely due to limited numbers of indoor heads (if I close my main bedroom door, the rest of my upper floor has no heating/cooling).

There's always someone in the community frustrated that their house is too cold/hot, that the condensation drains are blocked and water is running down an interior wall, that an indoor head or the condenser is having problems, or that there's unexplained coolant leak.

People moving into the community are inheriting issues with at least 2 homes having to augment/replace the system. To save breaking into the walls, this often necessitates putting the power, coolant and drainage lines on the outside of the house and then boxing the result.

We're saving money on monthly bills (probably; we don't have a comp) but many of us have spent quite some $$$ on maintenance and replacement equipment.

If there are no consequences to bad behavior, bad people will behave badly.

None of these people will ever suffer any consequences for this.

Same behavior when I run the container locally.

Issues with `get.kubefor.ge/latest`:

Manifest does not match provided manifest digest sha256:a4d6b4a9513289be1c1349afff46f7c87a5ac8513cbd8b66de350f26442d14bf

Works with:

ghcr.io/kubenote/kubeforge:latest

get.kubefor.ge@sha256:a4d6b4a9513289be1c1349afff46f7c87a5ac8513cbd8b66de350f26442d14bf

Well done!

Having user-challenges with kubefor.ge.

Clicked "Deployment" and then tried "Create metadata node" but it errors:

Missing config in qA_PQ-QAe8tznselScKge Node qA_PQ-QAe8tznselScKge has no values configured.

And:

Overlapping Nodes Node "deployment" overlaps with "undefined".

Not only are my AI chats more personal than my Google searches but with these false friends reporting this information back to Google's (and others') advertising engines, suggests to me that this will become a more accurate, more difficult to avoid and thus bigger business for Google.

Congratulations!

Having tried several times myself, I know first hand how difficult it is to make money from our things.

Well done you!

Podman uses Dockerfiles too.

Dockerfiles is the language for specifying a set of instructions for building container images.

This really resonates with me.

Your insight is helpful almost as much as knowing that other people like me are out there too.

I think (!?) I've finally let go of a project that I've been working on for a couple of years.

A key tenet of the project (which I frequently forgot) was that it was a way for me to learn|refine technical skills and to keep me entertained|occupied.

The project certainly achieved those objectives for me and I'm a better person for doing it.

Good luck to you and I hope you continue to succeed!
