Basically the Matrix Spec Change Proposal system, I like it. Opens the floor to more players, gives tool authors a list of protocols they could choose to build on, and hopefully compositors will choose to adopt or adapt one of these protocols before writing their own.

I know that “Vanity Addresses” are a common thing for onion sites, and there are tools which generate tons of keys looking for prefixes. I haven’t seen such a tool for ssh host keys though.

I put newlines in my filenames to break both CLI tools and Windows filesystems

Taking courses which involve subjects that you will likely never encounter in the workforce is a thing in every discipline. Most engineers don’t need to manually solve differential equations in their day jobs, they just need to know that they exist and will often require numerical solutions.

Getting your hands dirty with the content provides a better understanding when dealing with higher level concepts.

zsh-syntax-highlighting

There’s also a fork called fast-syntax-highlighting, I use it.

Optional crash reporting was merged. Most of the backlash in the PR is about the significant dependencies (Google’s BreakPad) which were pulled in with it.

However, by default Audacity isn’t built with it, you need to specify a CMake with the URL to send data to. No distros that I know of enable reporting.

Judging purely on the dependencies I see in pacman, nsxiv depends on imlib2, which pulls in a lot of libraries, while imv links to a subset of those libraries directly.

What about adding the flags last?

rm deletethisrepo -rf

I care mostly about shell scripting, so I’m focusing on those bits. Via the HackerNews thread, mostly from a-french-anon:

• readlink and realpath
• find -print0, xargs -0 and read -d
• find -iname
• sed -E
• set -o pipefail
• $' ' strings

It’s probably the biggest deal for games running in xwayland

How is it compared to wofi?

More people should be like you.

Exact same. Sway’s 1.0 release was March of 2019, and it did everything I needed.

Even playing games on my desktop, Xwayland worked fine for me.

8GB memory + two Firefox profiles makes things difficult on my laptop.

Others have mentioned disk usage and desktop integration. There is some truth to them, but shared runtimes keeps disk uasge down (although worse than native apps). Desktop launchers now search /var/lib/flatpak/exports/share/applications by default, but I’m still having issues with themes in one or two niche apps.

Trust is the big one. The benefit of your distro’s packages is that they are maintained by a limited number of maintainers. Flatpaks have a much, much larger number of maintainers, which is where sandboxing comes in. Flathub now marks apps with lax permissions as “potentially unsafe”, which is a huge step in communicating this to the average user.

Most desktop apps can get away with having next to no access, as long as they support the appropriate XDG desktop portals.

Ultimately, your mileage will vary, as there are many classes of application which are ill-suited to being sandboxed. Program launchers, programming languages, IDEs, file managers are a few.

I used to use Strawberry, but my collection has grown enough that I can’t just sync it everywhere, so I use Jellyfin now. I still use Strawberry’s library management to move files into album artist/album/00 - track.ext though. Someday I’ll dig into id3v2 to just write a script instead.

You’re deluded if you think that “everybody” let alone a large minority of people say that the Linux desktop is “good, perfect and polished”.

If you use EndeavourOS, know that you shouldn’t ask for support on the Arch forums, its a policy they have.

I use the web version in Vivaldi, I’ve always had issues with video calls in Gecko.

I get your point. Since a .tar.zst file can be handled natively by tar, using .tzst instead does make sense.
