The only use case for Appimages
If users want to carry applications around on a thumbdrive, or run on a fully immutable system like TAILS, Appimages may be needed. But this is the only target, and it is not a standard use case.
I guess I agree. This is precisely the case where I have ever used them. Namely to have a portable executable of my password manager on a stick together with a backup of the password database.
I had no idea they were being used elsewhere.
Yeah. I have a strict policy of never signing any CLAs. Their loss.
That while changing the licence to copyleft was an action in the right direction, it also means that they could switch the license again [for worse]. Apparently they hold the copyrights…?
If you don’t need fiscal hosting then LiberaPay is the superb recurrent donations platform.
Luckily not! There’s LiberaPay, which I find preferable to OpenCollective anyway. No confusion with hosts and it’s clearly non-profit.
Looks like AnySoftKeyboard
It’s quite interesting to read about these hurdles, even though I’m not planning to publish anything in the foreseeable future. Always just on the downloading side. Thanks for posting. Hope you get it sorted out!
Robot vacuums. Some of them you can root and install the opensource Valetudo.
This reminds me of QT’s signal/slot system. I.e. instead of calling functions directly, you just emit a signal and then any number of functions may have the receiving slot enabled.
Lot’s of similar systems in other frameworks too I’m sure.
If markdown fulfills your formatting needs, then there’s no beating it in terms of focus and simplicity. Use whatever text editor you like. My recommendation would be Kate. It supports previewing the rendered document in side by side view.
I’m a shell user too, but as a programming language I would rate Bash utter garbage. Fine for little piping but for longer scripts I will be reaching for Haskell.
What’s so wrong with fstab?
Ay this is a funny meme and all but insulting the best linux documentation available was unnecessary
At first I read it HyperbloatedBSD, which made very little sense…
In tools like lsblk? Nope. They appear as directories, usually in the top-level subvolume, which typically isn’t mounted anywhere in the system.
Then you just create mount entries in /etc/fstab just like you would with partitions, this time just using the subvol= option as mentioned above. I don’t know if there are any installers that do this for you. Archwiki – as usual – has good documentation on this.
What are the actual differences between native encryption and dmcrypt? Like: Can it be booted? Does it leak more information about the fs? Is it faster?
No idea about devices but OpenTracks is a nice FOSS sport tracker app. It should support some external monitoring thingys too.
A shame that this search turned out null, but at least I learned about https://www.opensourcealternative.to/
I really like simple black&white T-shirts with just a logo.
Some will recognize it and come say hello. Most will think it’s just a brand. Some will ask what it is and I will gladly explain.
This Creative Commons shirt is one of my favourites.
