@denis if you had a NAS, paperless-ngx would be a breeze to test

With local Docker it's fine too; I'm just messing with you -- I found Paperless to not be my cup of tea, though. After fiddling with it, I instead cleaned up my local storage scripts to file PDFs a bit.

Would love to hear your take

Some transactions even clear on the same day.

WAT? I thought it was ridiculous that we’ve got instant transactions only last year. Before that it took up to 5 minutes.

Or are you talking about international transactions like SWIFT transfers?

The disappearing and unappreciated art of audible alerts

I wish the reason for alerts around me disappeared…

@pointlessone Transactions here used to take a few days to clear (working days). Now it’s down to less than a day, sometimes even less than an hour.

@pointlessone (I’m talking about transactions like going to my local grocery store)

[pointlessone@status.pointless.one]

@denis those maybe take some minutes. Because when a ride or food delivery gets canceled it clears in like 10-15 minutes. Or maybe that’s just by job queue latency.
