It seems for me that this remote control using the X based protocol was never meant to be a feature. Probably the mechanism was created before D-bus existed, was meant to be dropped once a better solution was created, but never was done unt

If you're using systemd and NetworkManager, this is already what happens. Services that depend on network are delayed until a connection is made, that generally only happens after login. If you're using something else than yes, th

Yeah. I had a LG G Pad 8.3 (2013) that I used as much as last year until the screen separated from its body and started to fail as an effect. Was using it with LineageOS (don't remember the exactly version, but it was either Android 9

Yeah, but I think the question was why EOF and "\n". It could as easily just return 1 or -1 for example, and it would make more sense I think.

BTW, there is a Firefox module in Home Manager for those who want a customizable Firefox. Like, I set my custom `about:config` flags there and every time I reinstall my system I am sure that I didn't forget that random config to enable

BTW, thanks @easygenes. It is really much better nowadays (that goes to show how fast Nix/NixOS is improving).

I don't think it is fair to judge a project for the number of years its been around, specially for something that is really novel and innovative. Nix/NixOS is not a new web framework that most of concepts are really clear for ever

This is exactly what I meant with "there is one but it is slow and limited last time I tried", but it does seem that they made good progress (the last time I tried it was some months ago). Time to try it again.

As you said before, you can use tabs. You just need to use tabs everywhere (on Python 3, on Python 2 you can pretty much mix tabs and spaces, however this is a very bad idea).
75.
by m45t3r 5y ago
Yeah, Python even support tabs. On Python 2 you could even mix tabs and spaces, but this turned out to be a very bad idea. So Python 3 enforces that the whole file uses either X number of spaces or tabs, you can use either of them.

There is the MangaDex@Home, where users can serve part of disk space/bandwidth to help serve (mainly old) manga chapters. It does need to be something that is running 24/7 (e.g.: not a PC that is shutdown frequently), so something

Exactly. It is kinda obvious that someone is doing something wrong with the code when they're doing a generic catch (sometimes it is fine, but this will at least raise some eyebrows). However it is very easy to do the wrong thing using

Double check that you're running PipeWire with rtkit (this is the default with PulseAudio, AFAIK it is not the default yet on PipeWire). It is really important to run a sound daemon with realtime privileges. This is the only way to ens

However there are many more studies of variations for vaccinated people than for natural immunity. It may be because the laboratories themselves are interested commercially for those studies, while natural immunity doesn't bring them a
