- rustyhancock 5mo agoAbsolutely this is worth packaging for KDE. Although I imagine if you don't have the motivation to make it in the first place, you likely don't have the motivation to package it.
- pimeys 5mo agoI feel like this is so lazy bothering maintainers for it is not great.
- marmarama 5mo agoNo need to bother maintainers, just package it up and upload it to the KDE store as a Plasma extension. Then it can appear for download in "Get New Widgets" in Plasma edit mode. Plenty of "lazy" widgets in there.
- techwizrd 5mo agoI am happy to package it and port it for Gtk/GNOME today.
- Zetaphor 5mo agoI've got Opus crunching on it now, will update when I have it finished and published Edit: https://github.com/Zetaphor/whatcable-linux https://github.com/Zetaphor/whatcable-linux Running on my Fedora KDE machine right now. Also includes a CLI so you could wrap your own widget I still need to figure out publishing, doing this in between work meetings.
- vzaliva 5mo agoI do not use KDE and wanted just command-line version of it without any Qt dependencies, so I've burned some tokens and produced just that: https://github.com/vzaliva/whatcable-linux-cli https://github.com/vzaliva/whatcable-linux-cli

- _blk 5mo agoSorry, I'm late to the party but there's no rust port yet, so .. https://crates.io/crates/whatcable https://crates.io/crates/whatcable Thanks to the previous implementers/clauders.. I don't take any credits.
- pseudohadamard 5mo agoI have Claude working on a port to Intercal. Says it may take awhile, I'll post updates when they're available.
- hnben 5mo ago> Swift --(claude)--> Plasmoid --(claude)--> CLI --(claude)--> Rust-Port --(claude)--> Intercal Is this the human centipede of programming?
- TeMPOraL 5mo agoYes, as long as there are humans reviewing and quality-gating the outputs at every stage. Otherwise, it's just a very long exoprosthetic digestive tract.

- TeMPOraL 5mo agoAdmiral Ackbar has entered the chat. Making something has a well-defined end. Packaging something for distribution is an easy way to walk yourself into a long-term commitment.
- pimeys 5mo agoIt's 1st of May here, so probably not doing it today. Looking into it a bit more when I get back from the parties. but it's basically just three files: QML for the UI, some python code to parse /proc data and a metadata file.
- lostlogin 5mo ago> It's 1st of May here Is that date significant somewhere? It was an nice sunny Friday for me.

- harwoodr 5mo agoMay Day - like labour day in Canada/USA... but on the first of May
- xp84 5mo agoI would argue nothing about American Labor Day has anything to do with labor at all. Honestly we should just rename it “Summer’s End” because there is literally no theme. The ad flyers for the sales on that weekend have, if any perceivable theme at all, red, white and blue / Stars and Stripes for some reason. It’s traditional that school starts the day after it, but in many places that’s been dragged several weeks sooner into August for some sick reason. We just don’t even have any holiday that honors labor, laborers, or labor unions.

Isn't that true of most holidays pretty much anywhere in the West these days? Sure, there's Christmas and Halloween and Easter that have specific themes, but excepting deeply-religious communities who practice associated traditions, they're as meaningful as cosmetic items in free-to-play games. But every country has a bunch of other holidays that most people don't know or care about much beyond knowing it's a day off.
