Yes, love the wiki! I'd say that's one of the reasons I (and I'm guessing others) decided to try Arch. If that's where you are getting the best info, it's a good indication of the quality of the distribution and act

What's the tiling WM landscape like on Wayland these days? I know of Sway (i3-like), but is that the best game in town? I started with i3 but now love StumpWM (Common Lisp) and XMonad (Haskell), and can't imagine being without som

That was my question (author of the article). I don't see any good way to know ahead of time, even if it seems likely. Either you find reports of things working, or you take a guess and buy them. It does seem like most work, but I woul

And that seems to be true with most other gaming/wireless gear. They want you to use their special (or "special") software, typically Windows only.

Maybe a closed ear set that isolates better? Or my personal favorite is in-ear for sound isolation without needing active noise cancellation. I'm not sure what the wireless world for those is like, outside of adapters. I do have a Jabr

Author here, and I have the same pair of Sennheisers too! Wonderful headphones, and I did some mod where you remove some foam inside the earcups which effectively makes them like the next model up (not sure which guide I followed, but this

They have plenty, mostly (except some analog connection ones) are more expensive, some in that $200 range even. That's one of the reasons I ended up with the HS70, as it is wireless without being too expensive, more mid-range. A lot of

I haven't read either of these, but certainly want to. I'm a big fan of Lisp, and recently started learning some Haskell, too. (First languages were Basic, Java, C, ...then Python, Common Lisp...) Would you (or anyone else) recomm

Some of us just prefer to be in Linux [0]. And either way, you're likely using your computer the vast majority of time for non-gaming related stuff. I for one don't want to dual boot to play for a few minutes, or really have to do

I grew up with parents that used Unix and Linux, and so I probably heard about it at an earlier age than most would think about OSes. And that means hearing stories about punch cards and building basic computers too. My first computer memor

Very cool! I've been working on a little text graphics engine in Common Lisp, using SDF for rendering the text and doing some effects with it. This will be great to add and play with.

Definitely, darktable is fantastic. Haven't used Lightroom in years now, but at the time darktable was ahead in what it could do, editing-wise (Lightroom seemed better at organization to me then though). I posted this in the recent dar

I was reminded of this website I used a lot in the past (back when game manuals were a thing, back when you might pick up a used game without it). I was reminded of this when writing the article in https://news.ycombinator.com&#x

Depends on what you want to do, if you want the edited photo in an external program, you can export it with a click to the open it elsewhere (and re-import it back if you need). If you want to do raw edits, you'll need to make sure cha

Darktable is fantastic, if a bit of a beast to learn. It is what finally let me sever ties to Windows/Mac for Adobe software. I put together a little guide [1] to FOSS for photography a couple of years ago that I think is still pretty

Glad to see FreshRSS working well. Seems like most people are pretty happy with any of the big ones that come up (including miniflux). Good to be spoiled with choice, though for those of us that are indecisive....

Have you tried any of the others like ttrss or FreshRSS? Or any reason why you went with miniflux over others?
