So far I have also completely ignored them. From what I understand they technically allow you to install old versions of software, potentially having multiple at the same time. This could come in a clutch when working with stuff like Godot or Blender where constantly upgrading to the latest version would cause issues on bigger projects. This is the only thing I can see myself using them for, at least in the near future.
Meanwhile, a reverse vim enjoyer like myself, using micro to edit any file running as my user. If it requires root to write, it will simply elevate the permissions for that operation when I press Ctrl+S, asking for password if needed.
Same idea with VSCodium, but via GUI polkit prompt.
Life is good when you don't hjkl _
I honestly loved some of the default Windows apps, like Notepad, Paint and believe it or not, the default file manager. I find that most file explorers on Linux can't strike a good balance between simplicity and the amount of features.
Thankfully (or not, if you use Windows) they started enshittifying each and every one of them, so there's nothing to miss any more.
I'm probably gonna switch from Codeberg, I just can't rely on a service that's down all the time or takes literal minutes to load a repo page.
Oh no, he's shilling his own project after transitioning to a different technology.
Do you even hear yourself? I think you should stick with "He's a biggot" type of comments, because this just makes you look stupid.
reluctantly accepting the standard that was developed without them
Not with everything, Nvidia stood still on explicit sync, in that case it were the idiots at Freedesktop that were massively blocking Wayland's progress, trying to force an inferior technology, which Nvidia did not want to implement.
Meanwhile "per monitor workspaces" have been requested almost 20 years ago and are a dealbreaker for many users...
I've been using Codeberg for a while now, however their servers are not always up to par. I've been in situations where it takes forever to load content of the code base via their website, pushing to a repo was also really slow, upwards of 30 seconds.
I know they've been DDOS'd a while back, but this was about a week ago and lasted for few days.
Found the Windows user. On Linux we actually have polkit that can elevate privileges with a GUI prompt.
2029: EU proposes to criminalize the use of mathematics.
Working on your yt-dlp wrapper I see, nice. Keep up the good work!
First saying that tabs are a no go, then proceeding to deliberate on the correct amount of spaces...
Long live tabs!
Nice, used to love playing with p5 back in the day, good to have such tools for Lua which is often recommend as a beginner language.
I wish the author did implement some built-in libraries like middleclass, that would allow people that don't necessarily understand how metatables to fake classes in more elaborate ways than what's showcased in the instances.lua example.
Clipboard in Linux is weird. Can you replicate this:
- Copy text
- Close the application you copied from
- Paste into a different application
- Nothing appears
If so, that means you don't have a clipboard manager running, default for KDE is Klipper I believe.
Fuck subscriptions

Most companies I've sent data deletion request just do it, but when they start to argue I just hit them with most ridiculous bullshit while acting like the most privileged bitch until they do it my way.
Try saying no, see what happens.
Fearmongering, gaslighting, lawful threats, technical jargon and the word 'rape' are your friend.
Just recently when requesting GDPR data deletion from UK-based company they also wanted to confirm my identity, hell they will.
I hit them with the fact that a person controlling the e-mail address can use their 'Forgot password' feature to take control over the account and access my sensitive data they're in possession of or steal my identity using their own services. I also not so kindly suggested that I'll report them so their security practices are investigated for the safety of their customers.
...they deleted the data without any further questions.
PS. Not sure about UK laws, but for GDPR: Always request confirmation of the deletion and the detailed steps they've taken to ensuring your data has been properly erased. They're obligated to tell you that upon request.
