Lol that’s what I get for no coffee today. I’ll keep it up for a laugh.
Yeah gotta love that report that takes an exorbitant amount of time to make…which is no longer used/only used for a tiny bit each year.
At work, we have a system that has not been updated in many MANY years. Its essential, but because of budget constraints, we cannot update it. Also the new system is SaaS and is 10x (no joke) expensive.
We had around 10 people entering the same documents into the system in a typical form. Its a variation on three different criteria. They spent 40 hours a day just doing this work…
I got tired of having to pull info out of the system and automated it away with Selenium. When my manager saw what it could do, he asked if the document side of things could be done the same way. I created a prototype and boom, solution complete. It been stable for close to a year now. The 10 people now have new responsibilities (most making more $$ from what I hear).
But like the picture above, its a Jank solution. It literally just runs 24x7 throwing things from one system into another system, then pulls the info into another system. And you can see the screen running. But it does work…so im going to call it a success(?)

mesa@piefed.socialto Games@lemmy.world•Would you like to see a mainline Pokemon game created in the old style?English4·6 days agoDid you have the game on a higher difficulty? I didnt have that experience, but I put it on one of the higher difficulties initially. I forget which but I found that more fun.
Its fair though, it wont be for everyone. Kinda like TemTem. I wanted to like TemTem, but the puzzles really sucked. So much so that I stopped playing the game halfway through.

SD is such a nice device.
I loved cross code…except the puzzles. Im just not s puzzle person.
It’s probably between stardew valley, rivals of aether, or cheaper world.
There’s also a number that are almost perfect like wargroove, peglin, and kingdom rush.
God damn where did he end up? Working for swagger or something?

Easiest is using yunohost, second is using their docker container. Both require a bit of a sysafmin background for anything with more than 10 users, at least right now.
The times I did it, I went through their official documentation and their Docker files.
