Linux@lemmy.ml•Linux, FOSS, and whatever else makes me happy in my homelab
4·3 months agoIn the other post, you claim you’d ordered them from Etsy. Is it your Etsy shop? I’m struggling to see how both can be true.

Found them! This lets me cheat and figure out the ones I couldn’t name (or knew I’d got wrong like Digital Ocean that I thought probably wasn’t Commodore 64).

Programmer Humor@programming.dev•Dev creates astrology-powered CPU scheduler for Linux, makes decisions based on planetary positions and zodiac signs — sched_ext framework informed by lunar phases, cosmic weather reports, and dynamic
8·3 months ago[he wrote] a sequel to 1984.
I didn’t know this bit of his story. Anyone read it? I’m assuming it’s not very good/coherent but perhaps he was as gifted a writer as he was a coder.

44·3 months agoElement Effects
Zodiac sign elements create elemental affinities and oppositions:
Boosted Combinations (tasks thrive under compatible elements):
- 🔥 Fire (Aries, Leo, Sagittarius) × CPU tasks: 1.5x boost
- 🌬️ Air (Gemini, Libra, Aquarius) × Network tasks: 1.5x boost
- 🌍 Earth (Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn) × System tasks: 1.4x boost
- 💧 Water (Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces) × Memory tasks: 1.3x boost
Hang on - Aquarius, the water-bearer, is an air element? I’m beginning to think this astrology stuff doesn’t make much sense.
I like that water is responsible for memory, like how homeopathic medicine works.
Stop Forwarding Errors, Start Designing Them was a great read, and I’ll definitely be trying Exn.

Programming@programming.dev•I haven't written code at all these holidays
17·4 months agoI only wrote code for !advent_of_code@programming.dev which is so different to my usual tasks that it feels like a break.

Linux@programming.dev•Firefox 147 Promises Support for the XDG Base Directory Specification, Beta Out Now
13·4 months agoFirefox does seem to be clearing out their old bugs (another example is MKV support) but perhaps it’s buses arriving together and not due to some policy.

You’d recommend Heroic launcher over Lutris? Epic didn’t install via Lutris for me, but I haven’t got around to looking into it.
Interestingly, I can see that post in infosec’s copy, which suggests that p.dev has accepted and federated it. I know that there was a problem with indexing posts on p.dev a while ago, perhaps it’s still an issue.

Linux@programming.dev•20 years of Linux on the Desktop (part 1)
9·9 months agoTwenty years ago, I had an epiphany: Linux was ready for the desktop.
Please read articles before posting; this is literally the first sentence. The article is about the author’s 20 years of Linux desktop usage.

Linux@lemmy.ml•KDE Devs, I Love You, But Please Remove This Feature
7·10 months agoYeah, I hate those little dots and I inevitably jump through the hoops until I’ve clicked enough things to make them go away.

Linux@programming.dev•It’s True, “We” Don’t Care About Accessibility on Linux
15·10 months agometux is Enrico Weigelt, the dev behind Xlibre, the new fork of X11. He’s quite controversial, partly due to claiming to want to keep politics out of development by filling his posts with alt-right dog whistles, as well as being an antivaxer and having some… er… revisionist views of history.

Voyager@lemmy.world•I have a backup of my Voyager settings, including an extensive keyword filter list. But it won't restore when I select the file. What could be causing this?English
5·11 months agoGoing into more detail would be helpful: Do you get an error? Do some settings restore or change? How old is your backup (i.e. from what version of Voyager)? Android or iPhone (before and after)? Are you selecting a file from your device, or trying to use from cloud storage (Google Drive, Nextcloud, etc)?
