I picture these pages being inviting and helpful, with maybe ascii art “awk sweet awk” or the like, rather than the current “maintenance locker full of random tools” vibe

Kind of off topic, but you know what would be cool? If you had an ‘man explain’ command that would define all the flags/args in a command, like:
man explain rsync --append-verify --progress -avz -e "ssh -p 2222" root@$dip:/sdcard/DCIM/Camera newphonepix
Would give you:
rsync - a fast, versatile, remote (and local) file-copying tool
--append-verify --append w/old data in file checksum
--progress show progress during transfer
--archive, -a archive mode is -rlptgoD (no -A,-X,-U,-N,-H)
--verbose, -v increase verbosity
--compress, -z compress file data during the transfer
--rsh=COMMAND, -e specify the remote shell to use
etc.
The author seems dead set on a tauri calendar implementation. I came across what is apparently a scheduling toolkit in rust:
https://github.com/fmeringdal/nettu-scheduler
Which I guess could be used to build a desktop calendar app. One flaw in the ointment is that a calendar program really needs email integration. Downloading an ICS file and manually transferring that over to your calendar app isn’t going to cut it.
Which brings us to the lack of solid calendar servers. I’ve searched but I haven’t found anything popular, OSS, easy to install, and useful for groups. Radicale exists but multi user support is a janky hack, while Nextcloud has unreliable sync. I’m looking for features like:
nope
Hot take: tire particulates are a conservative anti-EV talking point. “My V8 mustang weighs less than an EV, therefore its better on pollution than a EV because tire particulates”. Totally disregarding the impact of tailpipe emissions.
aw, he may be a genocide loving nazi, but at least its from the heart. won’t someone give him some money?
IMO this device is more of a prototype for working out issues with risc-v in a framework chassis. Not really for doing practical work at this point. Could mean that framework expects a powerful risc-v chip in the next few years, and wants to lay the groundwork for that now.
Seems to me mainly of interest to devs who want to prep for a future generation of risc-v chips.
pricing is in line with the top ipad. I consider it kind of an activist move to buy one of these though, more about supporting a cause than getting a device with maximal functionality.
I like this approach of having a model locally and running it locally. I’ve been using the firefox website translator and its great. Handy and it doesn’t send my data to google. That I know of, ha.
You can’t run the linux I use (nixos) without the command line.
The mobile linuxes are way more GUI oriented. Android is first on that list. But also the various other linuxes that target phones, with UIs like phosh. On those I’d say you can mostly never touch a terminal.
But I don’t think you’ll ever be able to do ALL the things without touching the command line though. There’s a lot of software that’s intended to run in a no-GUI situation, like a headless server or embedded. Sometimes a GUI interface will be provided, but I doubt that kind of thing will ever be GUI-first.
I use keepassxc to generate the code.
pretty sweet. wonder what the price will be.
Ok, I thought the article was saying libadwaita was to add special features and styles for use in gnome specific apps.
So I guess the implication here is apps written explicitly for libadwaita will not be usable on generic GTK. So a calculator, for instance, that uses AdwDialog won’t be executable on a platform that doesn’t support libadwaita, like windows.
Will an app dependent on libadwaita be usable on linux without gnome? Like xfce, or xmonad?
Got it working. The problem was really dumb: I use xmonad. When I run mixx, it opens a modal dialog where you have to select a file, or cancel. I didn’t notice the dialog, maybe too many windows or it ended up behind the main window. Dialog never returns, program never gets off the splash screen. 😅 Still get the warnings and errors, but apparently that’s normal.
Anyway, working now, definitely a lot of bells and whistles in this. Inspiring if I ever want to take up DJing.
And the word grok comes from stranger in a strange land, not hitchhikers guide.
Yes they literally pull in particles from the bathroom air and blow them directly on your hands.
nixos is great - as long as the software you need is in nixpkgs, and it usually is. reinstallation is almost never necessary. You can switch your system to the unstable channel, and if you get tired of that, back to stable again, no problem. Experiment with software and remove it without a trace left in your system. If you mess up your config, you can roll back to the previous config in the bootup menu. Your system config is in a text file which you can put into source control if you wish, which allows you to replicate your config onto another machine, or revert to what you had 6 months ago, etc.
ok where these files at?
