  • Some of us still do ๐Ÿ™ƒ

  • Has anyone here ever tried Linux From Scratch?
  • Did it about 10 years ago. Didn't really understand half of what I was doing at the time but it was a fun way to spend a weekend ๐Ÿ˜

  • Considering Starting Linux
  • I use the steam deck as my main computer running the stock steam os.

    I'm currently using distro box to set up different programming environments. This is possible on steamos, which has the system directories as read only, by installing podman into the home directory. Distro box have a guide for steamos setup.

    I run neovim but I would think you could run vs code if you use it. Haven't tried running a web server on it yet, but again, should be possible. Or, you can get yourself a cheap vps from digital ocean or linode if you really want to learn Linux the hard way!

  • Suggestions: good independent coffee roasters in the UK?
  • I did come across them in my initial googling and they seem to be reasonably priced ๐Ÿ‘

  • Suggestions: good independent coffee roasters in the UK?
  • Cheers, they look good and not too expensive

  • Suggestions: good independent coffee roasters in the UK?
  • Cheers, will have a look at those! My first port of call was Google but it's a bloody minefield these days.

  • Suggestions: good independent coffee roasters in the UK?

    Starting down the rabbit hole and wondering if people would suggest their favorite independent coffee roaster that do online shopping.

    I'm based in the UK so would like to support domestic business if possible. I've tried gentleman baristas which I've enjoyed but looking to expand my horizons and experiment with things like natural coffees.

    I miss pre-covid news...
  • ... And newspapers, talk radio, and news. Seems like they just try and force feed the hate these days.

  • My weird KDE plasma workflow
  • The one thing I really liked about sway/i3 was having numbered spaces. The tiling I could take or leave, sometimes it was annoying if you hadn't put in rules for an app. E.g. gimp used to have multiple windows back in the day and it was a bit of a mess

    So for the work spaces I setup, I did 1 for general, 2 for web browser, 3 for code editor, etc. I really liked that and it became muscle memory.

    I've got a Mac for my job provided by work and I've done the same thing and setup workspaces in the same way. I use Ctrl+number to get to a space.

    Might be worth an experiment setting up key binds to take you to a specific workspace. I think you'd like it! :)

  • Introducing: Raspberry Pi 5!
  • Literally just finally got a 4... ๐Ÿ˜‚

  • Stardew Valley 1.6 Update - Stardew Valley Guide - IGN
  • Right? I've bought this game for every console I've had as well as pc and I still feel guilty given the amount of hours I've played over the years.

    Will end up day 1 buying his new game when it comes out, good reviews or not, just to support him.

  • Some people just wake up and choose violence
  • Not sure, I copied the link from the share button on the mobile app

  • Some people just wake up and choose violence
  • Found him when learning vim and watched a few of his twitch streams. Quite enjoy his takes on things. Not the biggest fan of this new reaction content but do occasionally watch ones related to the tech I use for the day job

  • Some people just wake up and choose violence
  • We always have had em, they're just on YouTube now too ๐Ÿ˜‚

  • Is strange... In the video I linked, he said it apparently broke some repos. He also said that they could have at the very least added in jsdoc comments to keep types without requiring extra tooling.

  • 2023 Italian Grand Prix - [RACE] discussion thread
  • This comment aged like milk. What a drive he put in!

  • 2023 Italian Grand Prix - [RACE] discussion thread
  • Think the real question is: how many corners until sainz ends up in the gravel?

  • (Discussion, JS) Look at the solution of a problem in Code Wars, then my code. Both achieve the same thing.
  • Yep, this. The code we write is eventually used or extended by other developers. Or, more commonly, yourself after not touching it for 6 to 12 months, by which point you'll have forgotten all about your clever tricks. (Speaking from experience of course ๐Ÿ˜‰)

  • My daily driver - hand wired dactyl

    Been using this for a while now, had a kinesis advantage 2 but wanted more customisation without paying a premium for the new advantage 360.

    There's no led lighting so the battery lasts forever. Haven't timed it but reckon I get at least a month out of it coding 8 hours a day

    Build details:

    3d file: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2666676
