Hello, tone-policing genocide-defender and/or carnist 👋

Instead of being mad about words, maybe you should think about why the words bother you more than the injustice they describe.

Have a day!

  • is there something about rust which precludes copyleft licensing?

    Jump

  • I'm a (mediocre) Rust dev, and I use GPL licenses for my projects. There's nothing preventing you from doing so. I think the answer to your question is that it's largely cultural.

  • Zorin OS 17.3 - A Great Linux For General Computing

    Jump

  • Running x86_64 emulation on an ARM CPU is a miserable experience and should be avoided. I've done this on an M-series Mac with UTM, and you're looking at ~10-minute boot times just to get the VM booted, and ~3 minutes for it to render a response to whatever you click.

    It's honestly wild that they seriously suggest doing this on their Wiki.

  • UK on alert after H5N1 bird flu spills over to sheep in world-first

    Jump

  • Ah, the joy of animal exploitation making new zoonotic transmissions possible that make life worse for everyone. If only we could predict this sort of thing based on how it keeps happening. Oh well...

  • How to have a boring and low-maintenance system?

    Jump

  • This is the way. The uBlue derivatives benefit from the most shared knowledge and problem-solving skills being delivered directly to users.

    Between that, and using a decorative distrobox config, I get an actually reliable system with packages from any distro I want.

    Awesome!

  • Has anyone ever explained the meaning behind the Asahi logo? It always reminded me of a cartoon anvil (in a good way).

  • New Report Shows Working-Class Americans Live 7 Years Fewer Than Rich

    Jump

  • Hey. I saw you throating the boots of the exploitative owning class in a bunch of your comments. Do you have any good takes about anything? Like, even on a totally different topic?

  • Android’s new Quick Settings panel is looking better than ever in Android 16 Beta 3 - Android Authority

    Jump

  • Don't forget the collapsed view, where you could fit twice as many toggles as the bullshit we have now.

  • Autocomplete custom scripts?

    Jump

  • It took me a while to get around to this so I could sanitize some of the highly-personal stuff there (mostly just a bunch of URLs because I don't use browser bookmarks lol), but here's a condensed version of what I like to use Espanso for.

    The second half is ...interesting. I wanted a way to autofill passwords from my password manager in any application, not just a browser. It's a very homebrewed solution, and it only works on Windows and Linux because macOS blocks tools like Espanso from viewing or modifying login input fields.

    Did you put in a request for this?

    For a Wayland Flatpak or RPM? I haven't looked in a long time, but I believe there's an open issue for a Wayland RPM.

    Edit: Found them: Flatpak issue and RPM issue.

  • Nitrokey, German alternative to Yubikey

    Jump

  • Could you explain how? In terms of capabilities, YubiKeys support the proprietary Yubi authentication protocol and the open FIDO protocols. The Yubi auth protocol is very handy for compatibility reasons because it acts as a keyboard to perform the authentication. I'm not happy about that, but that auth protocol is necessary for some applications and usage scenarios that i have.

    What does the other key do that YubiKeys can't?

  • Android Self hosting

    Jump

  • Unfortunately, from trying this myself, I don't think you can forward port 53 to the Android host, so that won't work (easily). It seems that privileged ports aren't allowed to be forwarded.

  • Your Android phone will run Debian Linux soon (like some Pixels already can)

    Jump

  • If this is anything like crostini on ChromeOS, Google's solution is also virtualized.

  • Flatpaks, Snaps, & AppImages: "Do we really need these Universal App Formats?" - An app developer's perspective | Michael Tunnell

    Jump

  • I can say with great certainty that the only package format that we don't need is Snap. AppImages and Flatpaks both have their place, but Snap is just a great way to find yourself wasting time because their shitty fucking sandbox system doesn't work properly (and also doesn't sandbox at all if you're not running AppArmor 🤡).

  • Autocomplete custom scripts?

    Jump

  • I like YAML, as long as you aren't using complicated syntax. Using the | operator will get you some flexible usage that's mostly easy enough to read. YAML definitely has its problems though. If you want, I can share some snippets of my config.

    Sadly though, due to Espanso not having a working RPM build for Wayland (or a Flatpak, which they're working on), it's not quite as cross-platform as I want it to be. It won't work on any of the cool uBlue-derived distros that I've gravitated toward, so I'm hoping we get a nice, big update this year.

  • Autocomplete custom scripts?

    Jump

  • Espanso is probably the most useful software that nobody is using. I can't live without it.

    I hope it gets an update soon...
