Damn, now I have to find an empty box somewhere else.

When I first heard of the Nothing phone I thought it was some practical joke where you just get an empty box. I didn’t realize it was a thing until I actually saw the phone

Yeah, when you grow your hair out there is this awkward phase where it isn’t long enough to tie it back. You can wear a sweatband, that will keep them out of your face at least. But even when they’re longer, they’ll still annoy you sometimes. When it’s windy, you constantly get hair in your mouth and face. That’s why I always have a hair tie on me.

Just submitted, I hope my answers are useful for your research

That’s normal. On BIOS systems the stage 1 bootloader (which is what this command installs) is always i386, see https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/GRUB#Installation_2 .

What surprises me is that the installer runs in BIOS mode, because your system should be recent enough to use EFI. When you boot into the installer, you should make sure to select the boot entry that has EFI in its name. That might be the problem, but without seeing the output of grub-install, it’s hard to tell.

Bitte sehr, dann kann ChatGPT sich in Zukunft mit meinen Vorgesetzten streiten.

Das wäre etwas woran ich potenziell auch Interesse hätte. Mir ist nur nicht klar wie das genau funktioniert, also nach welchen Regeln der feed items zusammenlegt. Die Webseite von feedibus bezeichnet es nur als “magic”

Also ich bin sehr zufrieden mit Feeder aber zusammenführen ähnlicher Artikel kann der leider nicht.

Hey Libb, first I’d like to thank you for providing all the materials, very nice of you. Unfortunately, I didn’t find the time or inspiration to write a post last week, also I’m more of a lurker on social media. I don’t think I’m a worthy replacement for you :-D . You can assign moderator privileges to me if you like, I’ll try to keep this community free of spam or whatever.

Can you maybe give us a ls -Al of /var/lib/radicale and /var/lib/radicale/collections to double check the permissions? I just looked at the systemd documentation and the service definition looks ok.

I suspect its got something to do with the systemd service definition. You may have to tweak the parameters under “optional security settings” to make it work. Or maybe you could start radicale manually from the command line, just for testing, and see if that works

Hi,

It’s sad to hear that you need to take time off from this community but I can understand not having the time. I’d like to wish you all the best for your personal matters.

I may post a weekly thread if I can think of something interesting. I’d like to keep the weekly thread going, because it is fun.

I don’t know if you’re using debian but I encountered the same issue. The wiki has instructions to fix this (section create essential directories):

I don’t read past entries often, but it is definitely good to have them, in case I want to look back at something it could contain some details that I completely forgot about. It also helps remembering when something happened, since every entry has the date on it.

At my desk, usually in the evening, with only my desk lamp lighting the room. That creates a really nice atmosphere for writing. And sometimes on the balcony, if the weather is nice.

How long do the prints last? I’ve heard that they fade rather quickly

The method that works for me is when I wake up and still have some time left, I try to fall asleep again. If you fall asleep, it’ll be a light sleep, that’s when you’re most likely to have a dream.

Most of the time, I’ll write it down the evening after, because I don’t have time in the morning, either. I can usually recall most of the details, so that is not an issue.

Interesting, I never thought about it like that (nearing my 60s). I decided to get rid of that ‘perfectionist paralysis’ of mine, like I used to call it, in my early 30s and never looked back but to this day it has remained a constant fight. I mean, I could as easily today spend weeks rewriting a single paragraph exactly like, in my 20s I was endlessly rewriting the first few sentences of most stories I wanted to write but never finished writing. Switching back to analog helped me a lot in that regard: rewriting by hand is a slow and painful process compared to the constant temptation of instantly editing on a computer screen, so writing longhand I quickly stopped mindlessly editing… but I don’t think I’m smarter or wiser than I was back then. More aware of my laziness, maybe ;)

That is probably one of the differences between analog and digital: On a computer, you’d go back and revise your sentences a few times, while on paper, where this isn’t as easily done, you just leave it.

For example, I was into that church a few days ago. I did not describe it in my journal despite having a lot to say about it. I only put down my impression of the quietness (damaged by the constant roaring noise of urban traffic, as the church is on a very busy street of Paris) and of its huge ceiling light plus the many light bulbs placed absolutely everywhere. I also wrote how, imho, electric light in old churches, that one at least, has ruined its mood by erasing any notion of deepness (very little shadows anywhere), uncertainty and stuff like that (like how those old churches were never built with electric lighting in mind, only candle and sun light which are so different and how electricity, by lighting everything equally, has made everything indifferent or too certain, merely a prop which churches like this one were not supposed to be). Anyone reading that passage of my journal would have no idea what the inside of that church looked like but would get a pretty accurate description of what I imagined the (non-electric) original light to be like, back then and how I think electricity has destroyed all of its magic. A couple or maybe three paragraphs, no more ;)

I think for this taking a picture would be best. A picture says more than a thousand words, as they say. That is one thing I’d like to do for my journal, but I have to figure out a method first for printing it, that doesn’t cost me an arm and a leg :-D . This is were digital journaling shines, as you can just add as many pictures as you like.

Sorry :-/
