  • Sway still primarily counts as a WM + Compositor, but considering it has keymaps, autostart, and libinput config mechanisms embedded in it, I would say it borders a desktop environment.

  • One hell of a consolation prize

  • The inhibit_idle specifier is cool, thanks for the pointer. This two liner can be replaced with:

     swayconfig
        
    for_window [all] inhibit_idle fullscreen
    
      
  • Or it's a cheap external nvme chassis with a Samsung 980 Pro. Had to run that when I was copying files from one of my old machines and boy, it will absolutely overheat to the point of failure.

    Gave me quite the scare when I started getting read errors and then it dropped off the bus. It shutdown to protect itself but it certainly didn't seem like that at the time.

  • The real problem: Define beginner distro

    Every user is starting from a different point. There is no such thing as a beginner distro. You can say this distro is good for people who can grasp the idea of a command line or this distro is good for people who have no idea command line interfaces exist, but that doesn't differentiate between beginner friendly or not.

  • Just note that if you somehow get out of those meetings, incorrect information will be propagated somehow. Even if you put the correct answers in an email and send it to everyone involved. If someone has a way to prevent that from happening please let me know. It's killing me slowly.

  • That was this reality. Very briefly. Remember AI Dungeon and the other clones that were popular prior to the mass ml marketing campaigns of the last 2 years?

  • Yeah, I've been using it for about a year now. It's a little frustrating that it will learn my misspellings before it suggests a proper replacement, but otherwise I have no complaints. Direct upgrade over the stock AOSP keyboard.

  • The entire post was off-topic as FUTO does not qualify as open source. That being said, the mods should probably update community rules instead of murdering a discussion thread.

  • Eh, that's just most large tech companies.

  • It deserves to be destroyed.

    I know we all hate our jobs but there has to be a story behind this...

  • Why is open source dogmatic? Because every line of code should have a purpose. Features are inherently optional and often cloud the project from the initial objective.

    Few people are paid to maintain this category of software so they want to keep things manageable. Omitting features is the easiest way to limit edge cases and keep up with your dependencies.

  • I'm the same way. Honestly I just like the built in terminal emulator for those few times I forget to open tmux first. Not a fan of the lua integration. Makes the initial startup slower for my config.

  • Or servo. Literally anything but chrome man.

  • I find it commendable that you wrote code so horrible other libraries started throwing more errors wondering what the hell you were doing.
