I managed to do this locally with Claude and some python libraries. Claude looked over the PDF, found the fields, and wrote a python script to insert data at the appropriate locations. Sure it took some futzing to get everything to line up properly, but as other's have said, my PDF wasn't sent to a remote server

I've been using it a bit as well. I'm trying to figure out how they're making money off free tier users though. Any ideas?

i was there in ~2015 when they paid out the nose for the domain name messenger.com

wonder what will happen with it? I assume shuttering the service gets them a juicy tax writeoff?

I spun up a self hosted teamspeak server last weekend for my friends and I using their docker container.

Its going to take some getting used to. Seems weird that they have a hard cap on 10MB file upload sizes if its self hosted. Also the screen sharing wasn't working quite right

Otherwise, voice and text chat is there

Interesting that they chose to showcase Battlefield 6 in the release video when that game uses Kernel level anti cheat that prevents you from playing on Linux?

This is why I dropped it. The CI/CD configurations were some weird proprietary format where as gitlab/gitea/forejo are all (mostly) feature compliant with my already existing github workflow files

Is there anywhere to find a comprehensive list of updates made "Under the hood"? Sure the new UI is cool and all, but what are they doing to make the OS better? In a previous life I was a mac administrator and every update, apple would remove some binary and suddenly we couldn't natively make calls to LDAP or something.

Do they have an operator to create the ingress rules and what not? I’m running their tunnel docker container but I still have to do some clicking around in the UI
