Self Hosted - Self-hosting your services.@lemmy.ml•My biggest annoyances with NGINX-managerEnglish
1·1 year agoThose TrueNAS fields seem gray because they’re disabled (since it’s inherited), not because those are defaults.

1·1 year agoFor the web, there’s no reason to make them faded out / grey if they’re default values.
Those fields can just be pre-populated with those default values, which is unambiguous and get sent with the other user-edited fields.
Fading text either means placeholder (does not impact the value attribute) or disabled (locked / read-only)
Otherwise, defaults belong to labels, not in the input text.

2·1 year agoThat looks like a placeholder text, which is everywhere in forms and very much not the default. Like “John Smith” on name fields, you’re expected to enter your value.

Privacy@lemmy.ml•(USA) Why you shouldn't get a Real IDEnglish
161·1 year agoIt’s kind of bizarre that the US doesn’t have a national ID for internal everyday use, and people are just expected to have and use their driver’s license for ID purposes.

3·1 year agoI tried it, but it didn’t work for me, so I had to reintroduce the device and share the directories again. But you don’t have to transfer all the data again, it’ll just do a full scan and transfer the diff as usual.

Linux@lemmy.ml•Syncthing 2.0 Launches With Major Database OverhaulEnglish
95·1 year agoFor those using it on Android, a reminder that the older app is not maintained anymore and you might want to replace it with Catfriend1/syncthing-android.
But also - maybe wait for the app v2.0 to be released to upgrade the desktop client at the same time; I don’t know if using v2.0 on the desktop would work with the v1.x app.

Technology@lemmy.ml•ChatGPT Is Still a Bullshit MachineEnglish
51·1 year agoLLMs fundamentally can’t answer this kind of question, so it’s an unfair test. They don’t see letters, they just see tokens.
It’s a bit like asking a random person on the street the square root of 75. Most will just guess on the spot.

75·1 year agoAs an exclusive Linux user, I’m glad they just block Linux instead of normalizing kernel-level anti-cheat. BF6 is dead on arrival to me.

I never thought of linking the .xyz top-level domain to location. I guess you can tell it’s a… nice move
you see ivan, server is much happier when comfortable on carpet, you can tell it wams its heart
I get the spirit, but it’s capitalism that accelerates climate change. LLMs are just the new blockchain scapegoat.

Linux@lemmy.ml•Dotfiles feel too intimate and personal to shareEnglish
8·1 year agoBare git repo + some custom aliases and functions to sync some things across machines.
But I agree it’s a bit too personal and I don’t share most things.














That’s getting into application state management and heavily dependent on what kind of form it is.
What I wrote above reflects what web forms usually follow, and they don’t use faded values for defaults, because in the context of a form, defaults are just values that were pre-populated and get no special styling.
