How is this not driving things forward? It's the best terminal emulator I've ever used.

I switched to Pocket Casts because the official Apple app changed their UI to a recommendation feed instead of a plain timeline. I only listen to podcasts on a single device, anyone have suggestions for alternatives? I don't mind payin

When I switched to Immich, I thought I was going to give up a lot for the sake of self hosting. To my surprise, it’s actually better than anything I’ve used from Apple or Google. Unicorns exist, they are just rare.

I don’t know what output to the VGA means from the OP. I suspect that entire project was vibe coded including the readme. It’s a common first step when writing an OS for x86 but for riscv you don’t use vga to get text output, you go through

There is a todo in the putchar stub. Looks like it’s not implemented yet. I have it implemented here in my own roughly 1k line zig kernel: https://github.com/Fingel/aeros-v/blob/ddc6842291e9cf4876729...

I like imagine the stuttering and jagged reflows are the result of uBlock origin violently battling the page and destroying all the ads.

Oh please. This isn't like the old iPhone days where new features and amazing tech were revealed during live demos. Failure was acceptable then because what we were being shown was new and pushing the envelope. Meta and friends have be

The difference between this demo and the legendary demos of the past is that this time we are already being told AI is revolutionary tech. And THEN the demo fails. It used to be the demo was the reveal of the revolutionary tech. Failure was

And this is why I find KDE annoying. Having to use GTK/GNOME apps for something as simple as a terminal.

Sure but they look pretty bad.

This 100%. Just look at the screenshot on the KDE page for Konsole: https://apps.kde.org/konsole/ What's up with the massive amount of chrome used for nothing except new tab/copy/paste buttons? Is it rea

It's a scrolling window manager, so almost a completely different paradigm (that I find superior) to normal tiling WMs. Ironically the entire scrolling WM craze started with the PaperWM Gnome extension. I still use it, it's great.

Do you have any examples where power features aren't accessible? The OP used a wifi applet as an example of exposing information. I'm not sure if this isn't as common as I think it is - but what's wrong with typing `ip`

KDE the desktop is consistent. The problem is the applications aren't. It's completely possible to run a GNOME desktop without a single QT app, it's near impossible to use KDE without any GTK apps. And there are so, so many g

Wow you are right. They look so similar. No idea about the OP then.

by WD-42 1y ago
Are you a bot? Also "It must be the wifi" has got to be the lamest, unimaginative, predictable demo failure excuse I've ever heard, and you're trying to defend it.

No, he preempted it because it was about to list all the ingredients necessary to make a steak sauce, despite having them in front of him. These are glasses, it should have skipped that part and went straight to what to do first.

I believe this was written by the same person who wrote Operating System in 1000 Lines[1] which was high quality and super fun to work through. So this is definitely going on the rainy day list. A book from this person would be amazing! [1]

I am being completely honest when I say I had no idea this even existed. As per my other comment, it’s very well hidden.

Wow, so it does. I just checked. Most of my subscriptions apparently do not have it turned on. The one that I found that does have it turned on, it's hidden behind a hamburger menu that's located next to, you guessed it, an AI but

I really wish there was a little micro-donation button, using something like the lightning network. I'd smash the crap out of that for good videos. But YouTube would never support it because they wouldn't be able to insert themsel

It requires Tokio, and believe it or not there are actual cases for non-async rust. So you can't use it in that case.

This is a company that is trying to design away the concept of the file completely. Which leaves very little recourse in the way of workarounds or recovery when bad things happen.

Yes. The timing of this is undoubtedly related to the Daily episode this morning titled “Trapped in a GPT spiral”. https://pca.st/episode/73690b66-8f84-4fec-8adf-e1a02d292085

Maybe the language should have a standard library then.

Javascript doesn't have a standard library, until it does the 170 million[1] weekly downloads of packages like UUID will continue. You can't expect people to re-write everything over and over. [1] https://www.npmjs.com&#
