i’m using their e-mail, too and it’s working fine. they also have a custom domain perk which you can forward your custom domain there.

this is great.

Are you planning to compile the programs on the thin client? Although rust runs efficiently on a lot of hardware, compiling is gut-wrenching.

I have an rPi 1B running as a lightweight server and both rust and c++ applications take hours to compile (some of them take over a DAY). so, interpreted languages might be what you’re looking for. my favorite is python. most distros have a lot of native packages in their repos. albeit a little weird to work on, perl is great, too.

you can start out with wayfire, as it has basic a panel included.

i think gnome and kde both have graphical interfaces for this. i like doing config files.

she was just happy for me.

i’m not trying to convert her, it’s just that i’m comfortable in doing this, it feels natural to me.

because this video is a beginners guide and ventoy is irrelevant for that topic, yet here you are still talking about it.

wow, really wow.

i saw veronica talk about ventoy weirdos on mastodon, and here you are.

R. because it’s really easy to work on spreadsheets. i know there’s pandas for python but at that time RStudio made it look really attractive. i will do anything not to work on excel.

yes, thank you

lemmy client? it would be amazing just to have a tui.

i’m all for periodic contributions through channels like open collective but bounties rarely get to the point of being persuading.

for a couple of years now my favorite foss project has been blender bim addon and its community osarch.

it has a unique aspect. the software stack it’s trying to be an alternative of includes giants like autodesk, nemetchek etc. although it’s a gigantic shoe to fill, it has been really really successful at doing what it’s doing. i have been using it for a year now and cannot fathom to go back.

the community consists of experienced construction sector people and a decent amount of them are directly involved in the software development, be it coding, bug triage, educational content, technical support etc.

i guess the thing that makes a project tick is having a working state software, the degree to which is not important, and being community oriented.

how is that vi-inspired? shortcut for quitting is just q!!!

i’ve had a t420 for years and it’s still going strong

if you’re looking for an original distro, you should try void. it’s super lightweight. i used to keep away from gentoo because it was a source only distro, i would otherwise go fulltime on it, but now that it also has binary compatibility you should check that out, too.

as for wm, i love wayfire as a floating wm, and sway as a tiling wm.

which was made possible thanks to public funding.

best supported one seems to be 3a. i think google is fairly developer friendly, so it should be easier to unlock their phones. you can check the supported devices here.

with note3 unlocking was a breeze. i got a poco f1 a couple of months ago and i literally spent a week to find the correct unlocker. this is really getting out of hand. i would buy a fairphone or shiftmq for my next phone but my country has some weird rules in place for iemi’s so it’s really not an option.

zathura is amazingly lightweight and does the job right. i even use that on my phone (which is not that powerful).
