This post is an introduction to color management, not a complete reference. ICC is definitely being taken into account in the course of the broader Linux work, see the rest of the repo and the draft Wayland protocol.

A really nice article by Pekka Paalanen from Collabora. He's been working for a while on bringing color management & HDR support to Wayland [1], producing documentation and discussing with upstream (kernel driver) and downstream (v

Indeed! Maintainer here. I just lived in Korea for a while and remembered a Korean dish while trying to find a project name. tl;dr no particular reason. :)

Interestingly, IRC operators also combat spam. But they never ask your phone number. Spam does happen on IRC, but gets shut down eventually. Same as Discord and other messaging platforms.

It's pretty common to copy-paste POSIX sh one-liners, or `source` a simple script. fish makes this annoying to do.

If you just have a handful of dependencies (which themselves have few to no transitive deps) then it works just fine.

I'm using ES modules for a webapp I maintain, and it's just nice to be able to run it without any build step. Just fire off a local static HTTP server and you're good to go. There's an optional production build step whic

This article is about writing an X11 window manager, which is a different piece of software. An XWM is an X11 client. Writing an X11 server is a much more involved effort (there's a reason why there's only one widely used implemen

Feel free to continue using X11 of course, no one's forcing anybody to switch. That said: > Does upstream Wayland work on any platform except for Linux? Yes, FreeBSD. Patches welcome to make it work on other BSDs. > Does this dis

Using X11 as some kind of client-to-client IPC was really just a hack in the first place.

This kind of workflow can be achieved with GitHub or GitLab issues by using labels. For instance, I often add a waiting-on-reporter label when asking for more info.

Packages aren't supposed to be submitted and maintained by the developers themselves. The distribution maintainers and community is supposed to do it.

I wish DNS providers supported the standard DNS update protocol, instead of having each their own custom HTTP API.

ARC requires the recipient to trust the mailing list. Better to just allow recipients to check the original DKIM signature instead.
79.
by emersion 5y ago
It depends. I've seen some servers with a DMARC policy which fails when SPF fails. DKIM completely supersedes SPF, hence my recommendation to just skip SPF.

Alright, I took a shortcut: SPF will verify, but for the wrong domain. It'll break when used together with DMARC's alignment checks.

I'm eating everyday, and I'm not working on closed-source software, only open-source. It's perfectly possible to get money _and_ write open-source software.

SPF will always fail. OTOH, when the mailing list doesn't do dumb stuff like mutating the subject or the body, DKIM will succeed.
84.
by emersion 5y ago
A mailing list will _always_ break SPF. When forwarding messages to mailing list subscribers, the mailing list server will not match the host in the "From" header field.
85.
by emersion 5y ago
Don't use SPF. It breaks mailing lists. DKIM does not, assuming a correctly configured mailing list.

Not being able to publish closed-source apps is a feature.

A little disappointed to not see Linux mentioned in any of the timelines.

No, DKIM doesn't break forwarding. If you just forward the message, the original DKIM signature remains correct. The original DKIM signature breaks if you edit the message body or its existing header fields.
