My primary banks apps, and websites, work fine on Graphene, with the exception of anything NFC payment related. I do miss that convenience, but I still have a debit card and cash as needed.

So then you have to run those apps as root user, or does sudo to your own user work? I wouldn't expect it to with those perms set.
Seems more dangerous than just dealing with the cruft.

Can never predict your future. Enjoy what you will, when you can. I was in a motorcycle accident in 2021, TBI, hospitalized for 3mo, induced coma, and rehab for 9 months after.
I am back on the horse. It is just a zen and still relaxing time, albeit more anxiety while riding, than before. Thankful I can still ride, and I do.

So the `OnCalendar` stanza is the same as a Cron job; without the helpful comments of the ordering? And that is considered _easier_??
Just use Cron. It does one thing and does it well.

Interesting, I wasn't aware of that connection either. I was diagnosed with stage IV colon cancer, but was identified as 'genetic' and not caused by diet or lifestyle. I used to be a heavy runner too, done a few marathons, and plenty more 10k, 8ks etc. Wonder if that could be a correlation... Treatments have it contained/in maintenance so at least I have that going for me.

Re:/R/selfhosted limits vibecoded apps
on Monday January 19, 2026 @02:39PM (#46683486)
IMO, it goes against 'self-hosted' too. Self-hosting for your own data, control of it, and handling of it. Self-hosting to learn new things and scratch your own itch for a niche product. AI vibe coding doesn't have any of that. Literally an _idea_ that someone else implements and you the 'coder' don't really have any control or understanding of.
Why would I want to take ownership of that for my own security?

Listing an active US security clearance on your LinkedIn or resume, is a sure fire way to get malicious actors trying to "hire" you; and makes you way more of a target. Especially combined with your technologies, company and time frame worked... It's just realy bad idea.
