It’s not a RENDERME & using badges and many other images makes it harder to actually read content. If you really want them, badges could be added with the specific settings in GitLab for them, and SourceHut you could attach them in the

If you block third-party fonts or Google Fonts specifically—and you should for privacy—this whole tool doesn’t work. Prefer first-party hosting, and always provide a native fallback (at minimum sans-serif, serif, monospace, or fantasy).

I was too busy being in various forms of ‘time out’ for ‘acting up’ out of boredom to be in class enough. Eventually I just gave up by age 11 and just doodled in the back of the room knowing there was nothing I could do to change my situati

Must me nice having the opportunity. I was stuck in a rural school without other options relearning the same content every 2–3 years for no reason with no budget for the special needs kids listed as “gifted”.

I migrated back to X11 for color management and have followed the Wayland issue for it on the Freedesktop GitLab forge for years so this is great to see. Now if only Steam would support 10-bit color instead of crashing on launch.

Bangkok has similar issues, but talks of moving the capital over a couple provinces have seemed mostly just talks at this point.

Have you considered a different host or at least mirroring elsewhere?

Best thing you can do now is start porting projects over elsewhere leaving history behind on that platform pointing users to the new home/mirrors. You could also consider a different license. I hope the FSF comes up with an exception l

If it wasn’t for employment opportunities using the proprietary service, I wouldn’t notice the outages because my own code was migrated elsewhere after the forge was acquired–but until these companies migrate, mirror, and/or distribute

The new search? You can't even use search on source code without being first authenticated, which requires signing up for an account.

The bad (addendum): poor display panel options. No upgrades to DCI-P3 coverage, OLED, etc.

When will Bun open up communications to something open source/decentralized instead of relying on users to give up their online security to Discord?

Microsoft GitHub has access to all the commits you force pushed away or branch you deleted. We have no reason to believe that it’s actually gone with no transparency and the source code being closed.

You mean the 3.5mm headphone jack? I wanted to consider GrapheneOS, but I’m not sending my perfectly capable, lithium-battery-less, doesn’t-need-firmeware-update IEMs to convert to earbuds Google happens to sell branded and bundled to repla

I think we need other UI models instead of everything mature being object-oriented-oriented. Doing UI work in FP (or FRP) is great in many aspects until you need to integrate with these OO models like the DOM, et.al. Direct integration or a

I find it a lot faster to do icat previews than bother opening up an application to find & view a specific image. Even something as lightweight as feh, is still gonna open a split in my window manager which in going to be more jarring t

The author isn't in control of the chrome around it. It becomes an advertisement for the proprietary service. You can slap Markdown through Pandoc and host statically somewhere where you do control the the chrome. This is a similar obj

This isn’t a viable option because a) it forces a specific editor on users and b) it’s buying into Microsoft’s proprietary ecosystem (tracking, plugins, etc.).

Is the author sure they want to embed this lecture/blog post into a proprietary serivce’s UI?

TBH, remote pairing in my experience is best done with a tool like upterm or tmate so the user can bring their own terminal toolbox (fonts, colors, settings) and it saves a lot of bandwidth too while remaining crisp, especially when text be

I've witness many a question after/during technical slides where the audience was confused by symbols. At a bare minimum, don't use ligatures in slides or blog posts or anything meant for a broad audience. Ideally, languages

Who? The folks feeling forced to ‘convert’ because the phone cabal decided matching earbuds that require replacement in a year or two was more profitable? Prior to device manufacturers doing this trend, everyone I knew had wired headphones.

Never should have left. My wired IEMs never asked for a firmware update, asked me to install an app, weren’t flaky like Bluetooth, and never stopped working because battery ran out. If you get a thick. braided detachable cable, it’s a) easy
