Honestly it is not just for fun — I have an idea of tiny tool, which I think should be written in C or Rust. But, because I don't know both, I decided to try with Rust.

Recent weeks I'm learning #Rust. Just for fun. I was surprised that Rust is not so hard as I expected. I know, it is probably a mistake of a beginner. I tried to learn Rust a couple of years ago but gave up very fast, probably in 1 hour.

Here I've stored some unexpected logic: https://vazhnov.gitlab.io/Cheat_sheet_Admin_public.html#a__Rust_unexpected

It was weird weekend: I played with a vanilla #OpenWRT on my new #glinet router and I created a page in DokuWiki (which I prefer to not use as much as possible, just because I don't know it) for the topic which I don't know 🙃

My wife has been using Xiaomi Mi band 3 since 2017. Of course together with Gadgetbridge because it is FOSS and presents in F-droid repository. But the last year the display became dark and hardly readable. So yesterday we've bought a #Huawei watch Fit-4CE STA-B39, and it paired with the Gadgetbridge surprisingly easy!

Thank you, Gadgetbridge guys!

Sometimes I want to find one of my #OpenStreetMap edits https://www.openstreetmap.org/user/Alexey%20Vazhnov/history to remember how to tag something, or where was some place/event. But web UI is not good to search through changesets: it shows only 20 latest edits and button "Load more" fetches 20 more.

So I've improved #osmapi library and created a script to fetch a list of all my edits and save them into a file (currently — JSON, CSV or #Python pickle are supported).

Try it here: https://github.com/metaodi/osmapi/pull/174

Today I had a 58 km #bicycle trip to explore new bicycle roads in #Wrocław. They are amazing! It took about 5 hours, with all my stops.

Now it is curious for me, how much will it take to update the #OpenStreetMap with everything I collected. Because sometimes it takes more time to add the data (and fix other objects around) than to collect it!

So, I bring the PC back to the shop and they returned me money.

They told me they will send it to their internal repair center.

but not the password.
And the boot order is locked, so I can't just boot that I want, from my drive, even with security boot disabled in BIOS.

I've checked the PCIe Wi-Fi module: when it plugged, PC starts without an error message, as it could be with BIOS locked to DELL-only adapters.

So tomorrow I will return it back to the shop.

For curious people: you can search in the Internet for "dell 8fc8 bios unlock", I had no luck. Nice site https://bios-pw.org doesn't support my version.

My wife's desktop is pretty old: AMD A4-5300 with 8 GB DDR3. Good hardware, but not enough for the modern web.

Today I've bought a used Dell OptiPlex 3080 MFF with i3-10100T, 8 GB DDR4 and 512 GB SSD for 700 PLN ($174) in #CeX shop. It doesn't have Wi-Fi card, but I have one. Also I have a 16 GB DDR4 module.

Surprise: the BIOS has admin password, and there is no more "CMOS reset" jumper on the motherboard. You can press power button for 20 seconds, and it resets some settings, 🧵

@liw , thank you for the tool!
I created 2 merge requests 🙂 I'm thinking also to move YAML examples into separate directory and maybe add more examples there.

I want to install #Devuan 6 Excalibur from SATA SSD to NVME drive of my "new" System76 Galago pro (galp3-b). I'm thinking to use some ready script which will configure EFI partition, hostname, e.t.c.. I found nice Python script #vmdb2 https://vmdb2.liw.fi , which has almost everything except of Devuan configuration example. So I created a repository with more examples: https://gitlab.com/vazhnov/vmdb2-examples . And then I found https://gitlab.com/vazhnov/devuan-debootstrap-grub-efi , which I created in 2023 and I already used it 🤣

Where can I have some nice statistic from #GPX file? Some web service without registration or an opensource application. I know only OsmAnd.

I've just changed a job 3 days ago. This week is difficult time for me — to negotiate and sign a lot of documents, to do all the courses for onboarding. I even didn't start to do a real work yet — my project starts next week. Also, this is my first fully remote job, because they don't have an office in Wrocław 😞 I prefer to be in office at least 4 days per week. And next week I have to start working with mac, but I'm a Linux user…

Tell me something nice in comments 🙂

Some days ago I found an advertisement of #Finemedia ISP in my postbox (in #Wrocław, #Poland). As usual, I sent an email with a question about #IPv6 support (I use Orange, but I'm interesting to have alternative).

Surprisingly, the answered was they can provide an IPv6 /56 network per router.

But I don't see any documentation about it. I see they own 2a02:21a0::/29, but that doesn't mean they use it.

Maybe the Fediverse knows something about Finemedia's IPv6 support for end users?

An article about #embedded code testing, automatic versioning and section hierarchy usage in `platformio.ini`.

CI/CD example is based on Github Actions, which I hope can be replaced by Gitea. Unfortunately, the demo repository is under non-commercial license.

Also, nothing about testing with hardware/emulation. Only unittests and code coverage.

Anyway, interesting too see how CI/CD logic is designed.

I've just bought a sockets block #Brennenstuhl "6G premium-line" for 75 zł ($19). Made in Germany!

I disassembled it to see all the protection circuits it has. I was surprised to find… double plastic case and no ANY protection, even a fuse. I'm disappointed. Usually "premium" products has fuse, filters, e.t.c.…

Product description at manufacturer web-site: https://www.brennenstuhl.com/en-DE/products/extension-leads/premium-line-extension-socket-6-way-black-3m-h05vv-f-3g1.5 — here is also no information about protection. So, this is true. I had to think about it before to buy.

I used #Ubuntu since 2008. When they switched from Gnome2 to Gnome3, I chosen #Xubuntu after some exploring. Then they switched to #systemd. Then a shift to #snap containers…

In 2020 I started to use #Gentoo at home. Also somewhere in 2020 I started to use #Devuan for virtual machines and containers and I found it very nice. I've been using Devuan on my personal desktop for the last year. And today I've moved to my new work laptop with Devuan 5.

My Ubuntu era lasted for 15 years: 2008-2023.

It looks like the #Devuan 5 "Daedalus" to be released soon!
