I thought that what I wrote was exactly "a custom modal with async return"… what did I miss?

here, have a near-replacement! (needs styling, and proper "modal" display, but it works)
instead of `const response = window.confirm(message)` you do `const response = await confirm(message)` (extending this to `prompt` is left as an exercise for the reader)

which UTF-7? the normal one, or IMAP-modified one? 😏

In the end I set up prometheus + grafana
I don't much like the idea of a dozen extra programs+processes, but I can live with it 😕
at least most of the exporters I nedded are packaged in #gentoo :genchu:

Lovely server-minded people!
I have a single server machine, with a bunch of services on it (Sharkey, a few Apache, NextCloud, qmail, dovecot, postgresql, redis, …)
I like having a bit of monitoring, and I'm currently using [Monitorix](https://www.monitorix.org/). It's not terrible, but it is pretty rigid and the code is pretty ugly old-style Perl.
I'd like to get at least the same level of details, about the same ease of installation (1 package, 1 config file, please don't say Docker), but better browseability of the data and extensibility of the gathering code.
I've seen [Munin](https://munin-monitoring.org/), does anyone have any experience with it?
Other suggestions?

Is pidgin / libpurple still the least-terrible multi-protocol chat client out there?
matterbridge works fine for *bridges*, but that's not what I want: I want the application to connect to each chat network as *my own account*, and let me add/remove rooms/channels/services interactively
I want "pidgin but supports threading, editing, media"
And no, ["electron façade to each service's own web client"](https://github.com/meetfranz/plugins/tree/master/docs) is not a solution!

I finished The Terraformers last night and I'm still "digesting" it (loved it, though)
How much did you intend for the InAss to come across like a horror element? Whisper's POV bits and especially Chef's work-arounds… _shudder_ such a horrible kind of chains!
