Did the same thing last year for christmas for my in-laws without Spotify or Aple Music, created a small webapp that allows them to scan the cards and then plays the track from youtube. Works really well to this day, it's a fun game!

FFS, please do at least one edit pass over the article to get rid of the LLM stench before you publish it. It's the least you can do if you expect your readers to give the text a chance.

I have the predecessor at home, it's solid and the tailscale support is great!

That's not how most established private torrent trackers operate? Account privileges are usually granted according to tenure, number of uploads and ratio requirements.

It's still there!

You might want to take a look at https://www.graalvm.org/webassembly. Runs on JDK25 and has very good guest<->host interop.

Yeah, this was the first thing that came to mind, how does this compare to the Truffle WASM implementation. The Graal Polyglot API is pretty incredible, we've been using it for a JavaScript/Python plugin system in a JVM app, and it's been amazing.

I think it's Claude, yeah.

Same for me, I used it as a welcome opportunity to get rid of the Reddit habit, which was surprisingly easy. I haven't gotten much useful content out of it for quite some time.

I've been using a Logitech trackball for two years now and they're incredibly easy to clean and don't accumulate much dirt on the surface (since they're very smooth), just a little bit on the ceramic balls that they rest on in the case. You just pop out the ball every few weeks, remove the dirt with a cloth and that's it, doesn't take more than a minute.

Isn't this like the #1 problem people have with wireguard? I've had clients with the MTU issue every time I've set it up for more than a few clients. Also how on earth is "connection reset by peer" dreaded?

Had the same experience using it for a refactor of a 3k LOC monolith via the Pi harness and OpenRouter. After burning through $8 worth of tokens it left the code in a broken state, the "thoughts" were full of loops where it would edit the monolith, then refer back to the original file, not finding it and then overwriting its changes with "git checkout --"

We're doing this with a few dozen GiBs of logs a day (rsylog -> central rsylog -> elasticsearch). It works reliably, but the config is an absolute nightmare, documentation is a mixed bag and troubleshooting often involves deep dives into the C code. We're planning to migrate to Alloy+Loki.

Absolutely, it's probably the most consumer-friendly and reliable part of all of the Bahn services. Personnel is usually pretty great too, and that despite them having to suffer the most from all the inept decisions made in the upper ranks.
