Sony is the biggest fucking security risk in this entire deal, what the fuck

I despise micro-USB with a passion. Even more than mini-USB. It is so flimsy, it's always been the first thing to die on my wireless devices, including my older phones.

If a device charges through USB, I consider not having USB-C to be a deal breaker. Right now I'm waiting for a USB-C socket breakout panel because I want to convert my Xbox One controller from micro to C.

Qtile was my first daily driver tiling WM. It was a pain in the ass to install, but it's damn near as extensible as DWM (since the config file is literally a python program). The only thing I hate about it is that you can't reposition windows in the tiling layout by drag-and-drop.

If touchpad gestures work, I'm putting that on my macbook air. That looks so comfortable.

Linus Torvalds and Kent Overstreet (the main developer of bcachefs) often argued on the Linux mailing list over adherence to long-standing practices when submitting pull requests. In the latest confrontation, Kent dropped this absolute clown shoes response:

If you're so convinced you know best, I invite you to start writing your own filesystem. Go for it.

Narrated by Aussie Waylandman: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=07XjCGQpwpw&t=869s. I recommend watching the entire video, it's very entertaining.

I think you and the bcachefs owner would be very good friends.

The reality is that, although there are quite a few standalone Wayland compositors, you don’t hear about most of them, because almost all of them suck in one way or another if you go beyond opening terminals.

Oh, fuck off! I can barely use Blender because dragging a spinner control does something with the cursor that makes Hyprland shit its pants. It's been fixed and broken several times. May or may not be related: Vaxry has expressed his disdain for Blender in issue notes. (edit) found it: https://github.com/hyprwm/Hyprland/issues/3270

(edit2) I should also mention that Hyprland is the only compositor where this happens. KDE Plasma, Qtile-wayland, Sway, Wayfire are all fine.

Dude's shilling for his own compositor backend right after ditching wlroots. He has zero credibility in this matter.

Urban legend my ass. It was real in many Soviet republics and far from supernatural.

I'd be very concerned about the state and safety of those rails.

It's because xbox's naming scheme is fucking stupid.

Those dialogues go frickin' haaard, dude!

(I hate myself for even writing this.)

 

If it floats, buoyant.

For example, drilling or enlarging a hole can be boring, but fixing two pieces of metal together is often riveting.

 

It's a poor imitation. A mockery of the name. A GUI addict's idea of a CLI tool.

 

I recently switched from wireless to wired headphones (Samson SR-850, probably the best for the very reasonable price) and my chair's wheels instantly started eating its cable. Right now I'm using a small plastic hook that came with a face mask to keep it off the floor, but I'd like to hear other solutions.

 

I'm not trying to attack him, but this is pretty funny.

Context: 11 days ago DT released a video where he called out the people who refer to Linux distributions as "Linux" as opposed to "GNU/Linux". Today he released a video where he did exactly that.

It might not look like anything special, but I spent an embarrassing number of hours on this rice, mostly on the non-graphical user interactions. The layout is a custom master-stack implementation, the groupbox widget is an almost complete reimplementation to support a more flexible styling on multihead systems, the Nvidia GPU monitor widget is completely my own, there are popups and context menus out the ass, and there is a persistence module that saves dynamic data (like layouts and group names) between sessions.

Tomorrow I'm moving to Wayland and I might not have the patience to get Qtile running again.
