  • Who needs stable, feature-rich desktops anyway

    Jump

  • i've tried bismuth and krohnkite, they're still the "grab bag of canned layouts" type of tiling extension, pop shell lets me build a binary tree with arbitrary splits and tabs like I could do in sway or hyprland and as far as I know the clunky built-in snap zone menu is the closest thing that's available for plasma

  • I'm not a big fan of i3 either, pop shell and gnome are the best combination i've tried because i get the niceties of i3-style tiling but with good mouse-based defaults and I don't have to waste time configuring things that everyone needs on a daily basis

  • afaik KDE still doesn't have any tolerable way to tile windows on wayland

    if i need to open a menu to set up zones you are doing it wrong. if i have to pick from premade layouts you are doing it wrong. pop shell on gnome would be perfect if it wasn't married to gnome and slowly rotting over time: i can pick up a window, drag it to where i want to put it in the binary tiling tree, and it goes there.

  • As I understand it, the core purpose of art is communication. Using a graphical editor to create web pages is still honest art in my opinion, because although you're assembling it out of larger primitives, you're still communicating a substantial message. It's similar to collage; the pieces you've assembled aren't your work, and the viewer knows that. The important part is how they're arranged and the message that arrangement communicates.

    AI-generated art feels deceptive and hollow to a lot of people because when we see art, we expect it to communicate something substantial, but in the case of AI art, the model can't magically add more meaning beyond the words of the prompt. Not to mention, the cultural grand larceny involved in creating AI art tools leaves a bad taste in most honest people's mouths.

  • check out deltachat, it's an email client with an interface like an instant messaging app

  • What do you pick rule.

    Jump

  • You would still need to be able to displace suspended particles, bacteria, and small insects, otherwise you wouldn't be able to teleport outside of a clean room

  • What do you pick rule.

    Jump

  • You could pass through anything as long as you're willing to destroy it in the process

    If you work in demolition you could take out a wall by continuously teleporting through it, if you wanted to do typical superhero stuff it would be good in a fight but nonlethal attacks aren't really an option

  • What do you pick rule.

    Jump

  • Being able to teleport into a region already containing air without creating a nuclear blast requires that you can already either instantly displace the air in the target region (which would make a Very Loud Noise) or switch places with it, so there are possible interpretations of the power where teleporting into a fence would leave behind a detached section of fence or bend it out of your way

  • Just edit the config file, so easy!

    Jump

  • NixOS has the potential to do really well here. The Nix language has a rich enough type system to generate GUI forms for every field, and there are several projects being worked on that allow editing NixOS options from a GUI. They're still very janky, but it's definitely possible to get to a point where a layperson could operate them without breaking their system.

  • ICANN approves use of .internal domain for your network

    Jump

  • Maybe browsers could be configured to automatically accept the first certificate they see for a given .internal domain, and then raise a warning if it ever changes, probably with a special banner to teach the user what an .internal name means the first time they see one

  • GIMP would be infinitely better if they just changed the name so we could talk about it around normal people without getting dirty looks

  • FCC gets tough: Telcos must now tell you when your personal info is stolen | Yep, cell carriers didn’t have to do this before

    Jump

  • Every sale to every individual buyer requires separate handwritten notice, each individually attached to a copy of the privacy policy and the data sold, notarized and sent by certified mail in triplicate, with postage paid by the sender. Make it cost so much that the entire industry becomes obsolete.

  • YouTube is slowing down for users with ad blockers in new wave

    Jump

  • Google owns Widevine, they would be paying a fee to themselves

  • In what ways has your use of technology/internet changed in 2023?

    Jump

  • Got rid of all of my centralized social media accounts apart from YouTube, moved from Proton to Migadu on my own domain (unlimited aliases! when signing up for a service I can just make up a new username and it gets organized into a folder in my inbox!), and moved my homelab and laptop to NixOS

  • Apple is sending out checks for ‘batterygate’ class action claims

    Jump

  • Personally I would rather they had to make phones a little thicker again to include a properly sealed battery compartment, the new ones look very nice but it's too hard to get a decent grip without accidentally bumping the edge of the screen.

    Maybe the whole back side of the phone is the battery, and the two sides are independently watertight? The charger port and usb controller could be on the battery too, that way you can replace it if it breaks or you want to be compatible with a new fast charging specification, and you could charge it independently if you have more than one.

    potion of rule damage

  • Yes

  • i thought it was neat how php lets you write your website's logic with the same directory tree pattern that clients consume it from, but i didn't want to learn php so i made my own, worse version

  • Yes

    Jump

  • my website's backend is made with bash, it calls make for every request and it probably has hundreds of remote arbitrary code execution bugs that will get me pwned someday, it's great

    edit: to clarify, it uses a rust program i made to expose the bash scripts as http endpoints, i'm not crazy enough to implement http in bash

    it behaves like a static file server, but if a file has the others-execute permission bit set it executes the file instead of reading it

    it's surprisingly nice for prototyping since you can just write a cli program and it's automatically available over http too
