  • That's an interesting point, I decided to carry on with the webapp route, but it would be easy to make it "multi-cat" actually. What I really wanted was a lightweight calendar but I couldn't find one that had pre-canned events or had too many other things I didn't want.

  • Thank you for the suggestions, I tried a bunch and nothing immediately fit. Most were either too complicated for me to create the relationships or I couldn't get the thing locally running (or there wasn't a self hosted option)... Basically stupid user syndrome 😑 😤.

    So went back to the drawing board of writing a webapp and after a few experiments realised that... All I needed was a calendar with pre-canned event titles, groups for colour to highlight different events... silly me, all I needed was a calendar...

    Ended up re-inventing something looking very much like a calendar... sigh... do I carry on or look for some kind of lightweight calendar :/ Just need to have ability to quickly create pre-canned events, would be nice if the events could be related...

    On the other hand, its kinda fun to re-invent a calendar haha!

    Here is a colour version... totally a calendar 🤣

  • Many thanks for all the replies, il take a look at them!

  • Looking to replicate something like this (with a weekly/monthly/ect views, maybe monthly view can look different since it would be too long to scroll, but anyway, it looks like arse but was just giving it a go), but didn't want to have to create a full webapp (with CRUD data inserts, pagination ect... its certainly doable, but just annoying to implement). This is just a simple index view in a random framework I found, with some real, but pre-canned data via db seeding (so at least I can re-create it easily). Just thought there could be something easier that already exists and i wouldn't have to be re-inventing the wheel. Have a paper version of this, but its too hard to keep track of different foods via paper.

    Spreadsheet sounds interesting (read easier) to try, though I am not quite sure how to do the lookup bits. Would it be something like one table (sheet) of events feeding from say, food type table (sheet) and some kind of a month view that can accumulate events on the same day?

    PS: yes got a vet appointment coming up soon.

  • Hmm could you use something like https://www.kavitareader.com/ and for items just add a single title image of the comic (with real title ect). So it shows up in your list?

  • Can you actually use steamdeck as a desktop PC though? Can it drive dual external monitors? Is it a reasonable "minipc" type thing? How much power does it munch on in idle?

    Can I maybe put some other linux distro on it? So many questions

  • I haven't tried myself, but suspect its more likely to be generally unethical tpwards the civets. From what i heard at least. Think battery hen farming.

    But i have done no research beyond general unregulated market assumptions.

  • Looks like someone you don't wanna cross in a dark alleyway...

  • Advertiser's love this one trick, i am surprised no one has yet created some JS to swap the buttons around on_click

  • Those right hand fingers are making me think of salad fingers...

  • It likely was an attempt to get more people out of rent into home ownership (as home owners are more likely to vote conservative here) but what they failed to predict is that people would then resell on open market at higher cost when demand was high.

  • No just own musings, no mainstream political party in uk would pick it up

  • This has been tried in UK for council properties where the tenant has the right to buy. It was introduced by conservatives back last century 1980s) and has led to decimation of council housing stock needed for housing homeless and those or low incomes.

    Objectively it ended up being a terrible policy for renters now.

    A better way forward is to ensure there are no private and corporate landlords and only local councils are allowed to provide homes for rent. This ensuring local rent controls and stock.

  • Go to elections with this and you got my vote!

  • If you don't openly go against the state no body cares about you. Its a small local library in a town of 400k people (2010 census) that has to move to a new area where even fewer people know of it.

  • No musk, go away, leave linix alone <insert that meme of leave britney alone, but with linux>

  • Depending on your contact but you might get severance pay.
