  • While you missed the mark here since typst has all the important stuff open (I wouldn't use the web interface even if it was free/open source), I appreciate that you're keeping an eye open.

    If you were in r*ddit's rust community a few years ago, you probably would have been banned, just like me😄

    A blog post from M$ mentioning Rust with zero code

    => straight to the top

    A news article regurgitating the same thing a week later

    => straight to the top

    Another news article two weeks later regurgitating the same thing, possibly with the addition of a random tweet from some M$ dev

    => straight to the top

    Anyone not sucking nu-M$'s ****

    => banished to the bottom, or worse.

    Things got so silly to the point where I made this jerk post (archive link) about one of these silly posts.

  • I wouldn't correct you if this was a general community where the internet gantry hangs in numbers like the multiple !linux communities, but let's keep things more factual here in !rust.

    After Wedson quit months ago, no one from the Rust-For-Linux effort has quit/resigned/whatever. No one quit who is relevant to current mainline kernel development in general, either.

    There is a difference between the actual Rust-For-Linux team, and Rust proponents who may write kernel code out-of-tree, or may happen to still be listed as maintainers in a dead poor GPU driver. Confusing the two is good for drama, but let's not do that here.

    And the bad boy maintainer is entitled to his opinion (which I disagree with of course). An opinion which will always be more informed and relevant than 99.999% of whatever the internet gantry has been contributing.

  • True. Moronix's comment section is always good for a good laugh. Although the novelty wears off fast due to the lack of novelty/originality.

  • How dare you change the click-bait title❓I mean, it's a moronix post. No one was expecting some serious reporting anyway🙂Otherwise, you could have just pointed to the mailing list thread directly (preferable).

  • But don’t use ctrl-b

    What migrant from screen didn't start by adding this to tmux config? 😄

     
        
    set-option -g prefix C-a
    unbind-key "C-b"
    bind-key "C-a" send-prefix
    
      
  • If you're serious about creating something good/better, you should use alacritty_terminal (not to be confused with the terminal app built on top of it) for low-level (from your PoV) terminal support.

    This is something zellij didn't do. And now they have "basic functionality" bugs like this one open for years.

    I also wonder what made you pick screen as a baseline to improve on instead of tmux.

  • even if he wrote "half", he would still be wrong, and still suffering from multiple levels of dissonance.

    • Not all x86 laptops are like you describe.
    • Non-Apple ARM laptops exist. They in fact predate Apple's move to ARM. Not only that, Linux was actually the primary target platform for many of them.
  • Sure, there were/are still some bits and pieces of hardware support missing, but the overall experience rivaled or exceeded what you could get on most x86 laptops.


    But then also came the entitled users. This time, it wasn’t about stealing games, it was about features. “When is Thunderbolt coming?” “Asahi is useless to me until I can use monitors over USB-C” “The battery life sucks compared to macOS” (nobody ever complained when compared to x86 laptops…) “I can’t even check my CPU temperature” (yes, I seriously got that one).

    how many levels of dissonance is that?

  • Traditional server-based self-hosting will have lower average uptime, will be easier to attack, and will have a much higher chance of disappearing out of nowhere (bus factor event, or for any other reason).

    A decentralized or distributed solution would make more sense as a suggestion here. Radicale (this one) is such an effort I'm aware of, although I never tried it myself or take a look at its architecture.

  • It's not Lemmy markdown. The implementation used in lemmy-ui (specifically) is markdown-it. And yes it's special (not in a good way).

    Some of us advised Lemmy devs to switch to a CommonMark implementation before it's too late. That would have allowed for using higher quality and faster implementations, not to mention allowing/easing better interop. But the devs weren't interested in the suggestion.

  • Pretends to rage-quit from contributing, not resigns.

    Good riddance, unless they learn how to behave like well adjusted adults, instead of constantly playing to a microblogtard crowd. <= That's what would I have wrote if something relevant actually happened, which is not the case.

    And this is coming from a Rustacean.

    This more belongs to a "linux drama" community (if one exists).

  • Is there a tiling Wayland compositor out there that supports applying custom shaders to windows (similar to picom)? This has been a known limitation for many years. And I brought it up myself with a couple of compositors' developers, and they told me that it would break direct scan-out, and I told them that I would be fine with that, and then discussions fizzled out.

    I also tried an x11vnc alternative I don't remember the name of, and besides the generally buggy experience, it completely broke when power management kicked on the sever side (turning off the monitor IIRC). So that's another show stopper, although maybe not as relevant as custom shader support which I need for applying my custom color inversion shaders to specific windows, otherwise, my vision would go bad quickly.

    So yeah, I will be sticking with my Awesome WM (+picom +x11vnc) setup for a while too.

  • The highest cost for most projects comes from the CI runners.

    i2p only provides anonymous transport, so not relevant at all.

    ipfs is joke tech (you would be better off building something on top of good old torrents).

  • A fanatic microblogger inflating some kernel drama, and inviting the microblog echo chamber and the whole internet gantry to chime in.. is surely worthy of being the hottest topic of the day.

    Yes, I know who they are.

  • tokei is the tool that came to mind reading your title.

    Getting fancier info depends on the fanciness of the tokenizer used. Maximum fanciness probably requires a full language parser. Info beyond code/tokens requires more than just a parser (language server territory).

  • Bait or not, I'm not sure why you're getting such a negative reaction. People are getting too sensitive!

    Btw, do sanitizers hurt your brain too?

  • It has some. Related Lemmy Issue. I actually remembered wrong. Should have wrote "NOT implemented client-side".

    I'm too busy to double-check, but it is possible that Lemmy is ready for this now.

  • Because besides the jerking style, PCJ is a "no backlinking" community.
