Pano perhaps? It doesn’t show up at the cursor but you can search in it, the keyboard works the way you would expect and it auto inserts on selection.

How was it an obvious data breach? The attack was done via Codebergs notification system. It’s no different from the notification you got from me writing this comment.

In this case it’s more of a switch away from the last cool new thing. Totem (like Music) was built around a media library navigated from within the app. By default Totem doesn’t even support opening videos from the file manager, which is something you would probably expect of a video player. It also crashed for me when I tried using it as intended so I’m not surprised to see it replaced by an app that really is just a video player.

That said many apps get replaced not for feature reasons but just by being GTK3, and they tend to get replaced by their own forks to GTK4 (such as the upcoming replacement of Evince). Why their devs choose to upgrade toolkits this way I cannot say.

Insightful article. I have to confess I never realized the accessibility situation was this bad.

I also want to highlight this excerpt from the comments:

Making things accessible isn’t hard technically. But it requires coordination and people to care about it enough to work on it at the expense of other features. If [I] developed an application on a team and said I had ‘one security guy that works on that stuff as long as it doesn’t interfere with the rest of our work’ I’d be dragged over the coals and have my project forked by the public.

But with accessibility? There’s really no sense of priority or urgency despite it being broken for years and not putting much effort in to fixing it.

It’s prettier than a TTY and you can pick whether you want a Wayland or an X11 session without having to know the correct startup commands. You can pick between different desktops too. And a Display Manager can offer on-screen keyboard and touchscreen support while a TTY can’t (at least GDM does, I’m not sure about SDDM off the top of my head).

Aside from that whatever command you are using in the TTY to launch Plasma might or might not be the same commands SDDM uses, which might or might not lead to issues in setting up the environment. If your environment is fine and you don’t care about having to use a physical keyboard then of course you can remove it. It’s not exactly load bearing.

I am very sorry to remind everyone about the existence of Visual Basic, but it has:

• VbCrLf
• VbNewLine
• ControlChars.CrLf
• ControlChars.NewLine
• Environment.NewLine
• Chr(13) & Chr(10)

And I know what you’re asking: Yes, of course all of them have subtly different behavior, and some of them only work in VB.NET and not in classic VB or VBA.

The only thing you can rely on is that “\r\n” doesn’t work.

To be fair that’s not the entire story, since you need to actually resolve the conflicts first, which is slightly scary since your worktree will be broken while you do it and your Linter will be shouting at you.

You may also want a dedicated merge tool that warns you before accidentally commiting a conflict and creating a broken commit.

Oh and non trivial resolutions may or may not create an evil merge which may or may not be desirable depending on which subset of git automation features you use.

Using git status often is definitely good advice though.

I’m running KDE Plasma with the revived Krohnkite for auto tiling. Plasma 6.2 seems to have fixed most of the bugs from 6.0 and 6.1, at least the ones I’ve noticed.

I was using Sway/SwayFX for a few months but was missing some KDE Gear apps like Dolphin and Okular which I couldn’t get to display correctly. KDE is afaik the only desktop with a working Qt theming engine right now, so I can’t really see myself switching (unless maybe if they break Krohnkite again).

I agree.

You could say that about any kind of autocomplete. Why would people install snippet plugins into their vim/emacs? Sure you can just type everything by hand but it’s just more convenient.

Personally I find these kinds of inline AI suggestions make a more convincing use case than trying to prompt engineer a Chat based LLM and diverting your attention to phrasing specifics instead of the actual problem space.

If your build fails because you can’t track down the literal ≠ in the code I would recommend just looking at the compiler error. I understand the concerns about == vs = more but the vast majority of LSPs (and some compilers) will catch that too.

I have also yet to see any IDE enable ligatures by default, at least VS Code and the JetBrains suite both require opting into them even though their default fonts support them.

Indeed, that all looks fairly innocuous. Just in case, you are sure that you didn’t just accidentially kill or killall rclone or bash?

Perhaps wrapping the script in strace might help debug where the offending signal is coming from.

TimeoutStopSec applies to the ExecStop command, TimeoutStartSec would be the culprit here. I’m not sure why there would be a default timeout of specifically 1:39 minutes though.

Does your script fork at some point (and might exit before the rsync job is completed)? Because then you need to use Type=forking instead of simple or oneshot, otherwise systemd will start trying to clean up child processes when the script exits.

Edit: Actually considering the time span involved Type=forking will not solve your issue because it will timeout, if this is the problem you need to change your script to not do that.

Also ich bin mit dem Lebenswerk von Feddersen nicht im Geringsten vertraut aber dieser Satz aus dem Artikel:

Was sie stattdessen liefert, ist ein Kampf um Symboliken. Für das Recht auf die Identität als Nonbinäre des Geschlechtlichen, für Transfluidität, damit im Übrigen in Allianz mit dem medizinisch-pharmakologischen Komplex, der seine chirurgischen und chemischen Manipulationsmöglichkeiten begründet sehen wollte

ist schon irgendwie arg disqualifizierend. Das ist ungefähr die Ebene von den Leuten, die noch klug genug sind, nicht explizit von Bill Gates Mikrochips zu reden, und stattdessen bei jeder passenden und unpassenden Gelegenheit die Zeit finden, um auf die Möglichkeit von Impfschäden und finanzielle Interessen von Pfizer & Co. hinzuweisen. Nur halt für die Gesundheitsversorgung von Transmenschen statt für die von von COVID Gefährdeten.
