With the huge limitation of not being able to manage the windows of Wayland clients. This tool is an excellent solution for exactly that.

That's a projection for the rest of the year and probably still way optimistic. It's quite possible that the current trend is for a much smaller number.

I was eyeing the Poqet PC in the late 90s when remaining stock was being sold off at a good price. I wanted to use it as a mobile dial-up terminal and to run Nethack (not sure if it actually had enough RAM and storage for that). Never got a

Besides the limitations others have mentioned users should be aware that since ydotool works by writing events directly into /dev/uinput the input will go to whatever happens to be focused at the moment. It will happily type your

I couldn't find an explanation but my guess is that it probably had some edge case failures (like corrupt files after an abort) or it didn't invalidate the cache when autoconf or environment changes affected the test results. I us

I could have sworn that config.cache used to be on by default. And indeed it was until autoconf-2.50 which was released in 2001.

5.6.1 is masked specifically. Also, https://mastodon.social/@mgorny@treehouse.systems/1121802382... from a Gentoo dev mentions that Gentoo doesn't use the patch that results in sshd getting linked against liblzma.

I always cover such tools when I interview people for SRE-type positions. Not so much about which specific commands the candidate can recall (although it always impresses when somebody teaches me about a new tool) but what's possible,

For what its worth I've yet to see any spam at all in my Mastodon feeds (regular user for about a year, accounts on multiple instances). Much respect to the admins for staying on top of it.

That's a nice way of putting it. When exploring a new codebase for the first time it can be very helpful to have main.go give you a high level idea about the overall structure of the program.

RSS of course. I don't care what platform you use just make sure there is an RSS feed.

Starting with the Spectrum to be precise. The ZX-81 version didn't have that yet.

Regarding the quality of posts in general the problem is not what gets posted, there is a ton of junk in the "new" queue and most of it never makes it to the front page. It's what gets upvoted.

And comparing sizes of areas in general. There is a small card game called Illusion that is built around that idea. https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/244995/illusion

Tornado VPS (used to be prgmr.com) is another one: https://tornadovps.com/order/main/packages/xen/ For $5 you get 1.25 GiB RAM and 15 GiB SSD. Started using them for almost 15 years ago when running an S

You can also use Emacs and fennel-mode and then M-x fennel-repl to get a live repl from your Emacs session and then use lisp-eval-last-sexp, doc lookup and other Lisp conveniences. https://gitlab.com/alexjgriffith/min-l

Not the parent but there are several high quality native (meaning no CGO) Lua implementations for Go and it's a great choice if you want an embedded scripting language: https://github.com/yuin/gopher-lua https:&#

For Emacs users elpher.el is a good option. There are also some additional packages to help with authoring .gmi files either locally or over Titan. https://thelambdalab.xyz/elpher/ https://git.carcosa.net&#x

I used both of these. My WM journey so far: - olwm/olvwm: virtual desktops and the 19" SPARCStation 2 monitor was absolutely amazing at the time - fvwm, fvwm2 - sawmill/sawfish was my intro to programmable WMs. It was great u

The parent is just being ridiculous, Emacs of course has undo, auto-save and version control. And unlike in certain modal editors it's pretty hard to do any real damage without touching Control or Meta.

I've been using EXWM since 2016 and this hasn't been a problem for me. Emacs doesn't just magically break on its own. And even if I managed to break my config without noticing it the fix is just a git revert away. I used Stum

Emacs can handle JPEG XL files as long as you build it with ImageMagick enabled and ImageMagick is built with JPEG XL support. You can try evaluating (imagemagick-types) to see if it's enabled. If it fails with "void-function&quot

The estimate in the PEP is that it will be 5-8% slower. Having to use more granular locks and atomic operations has a cost. https://peps.python.org/pep-0703/#performance

Some comp.* groups get reasonable traffic even today although naturally it's mostly the same regulars. And I know of at least a couple of alt.* and rec.* groups that are worth checking on occasion. And there are some others that are ke

We also had prc-tools, a free GCC based toolchain. I used it to build a tweaked version of pssh and some other stuff. It was a lot more straightforward than modern Android or iOS development. https://prc-tools.sourceforge.net&#x2

Some will choose to federate with it (if it's an option), some won't. Just as they do with other instances. That's the beauty of it. Fragmentation is not a bug, it's a feature.

The votes and comments are local to the Endless instance, not forwarded or federated anywhere, correct? So for example if I run a personal one I'd only ever see my own voting history?
