Altcha is free if you selfhost it.

On their website they have 2 pricing tiers: "Pro" (9€ per month) and "Open Source" (Free)

The one we are currently in I assume.

Proxima Centauri is pretty weird with it's three gravitationally bound suns (Alpha Centauri A and B), who would set up alerrs for that?

There is a flatpak at least

And yet, only €376.3/month on patreon.


Also, I keep wondering why Anubis got so popular while other proof of work captchas have been around for much longer. Is there any fundamental difference to mCaptcha or altcha?

(except for maybe that altcha is trying to make a business by serving customers that don't want to selfhost it).

Any technical reason for prefering anubis?

What's always missing is nomacs - the best image viewing and light editing toolkit app on linux.

Nobody ever mentions it. Why is that? Why? It supports all the formats. It has the best slideshow options. The UI is as minimal or as informative as you set it to be. WHYYYYYY DOES NOBODY TALK ABOUT IT??? Who paid you to be silenced?

(and yes, it can convert the formats)

  1. Software Architects Handbook - Joseph Ingeno
  2. Game Programming Patterns - Robert Nystrom
  3. Tidy First - Kent Beck

First one I found the most useful.

Second one gave me a new perspective, even though I am not programming games, I could apply this new perspective to my regular code.

Third one is the nicest book on that topic. I hated "the classics" but I enjoyed this one a lot.


Bonus round:

  1. Etudes for Programmers - Charles Wetherell

It's how I learned to code.

What I did is set up a NAS at my parents house, which I can log into as well for near zero cost offsite backups.

And at home I have a couple of local drives with borgbackups.

Except for distros like Apartheid Linux ... maybe uncreate those.
