Just a placeholder so far. Needed a known blog to test a few things with. Animated images! And at long last animated in the reader itself! Text formatting A link to Gitlab. Some inline code formatting. And then A code block with some lines of code should be scrollable if one very very long line with many sssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss A table!

Quick post to immortilize the configuration to get transmission-daemon working with a wireguard tunnel. If you don’t have a wireguard tunnel, head to https://mullvad.net/en/ and get one. Transmission config First, the transmission config is really simple: #/etc/transmission-daemon/settings.json { […] "bind-address-ipv4": "X.X.X.X", "bind-address-ipv6": "xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx::xxxx", "peer-port": 24328, "rpc-bind-address": "0.0.0.0", […] } I also run the daemon using the following service for good measure:

/etc/systemd/system/transmission-daemon.service [Unit] Description=Transmission BitTorrent Daemon Under VPN After=network-online.

The data I am using is originally from SwedBank and all data and code is available at GitLab. The data contains interest rates at 5 years fixed term, 2 years fixed term, and 3 months fixed term (also called variable rate in Sweden) for those dates when any rate was changed. The first rates are from 1989-11-01 and the last are from 2018-02-12. Example of the data: 5y 2y 3m Date 1989-11-22 13.

In Gimp you go to Image in the top menu bar and select Mode followed by Indexed. Now you see a popup where you can select the number of colors for a generated optimum palette. You’ll have to experiment a little because it will depend on your image. I used this approach to shrink the size of the cover image in the_zopfli post from a 37KB (JPG) to just 15KB (PNG, all PNG sizes listed include Zopfli compression btw).

A clear difference between Debian/Ubuntu and for example Red Hat/Fedora is that packages which include system services will enable and start those services at install time in Debian/Ubuntu whereas they will not start automatically in Red Hat/Fedora. Sometimes it would be very convenient if the service would not start automatically, for example if you need to configure the service before starting it for the first time. To prevent the automatic start of system services at install time in Debian, just set the RUNLEVEL environment variable like so:
