Yeah, there are a lot of bells and whistles and a fundamental difference between the way they intend to manage dotfiles and the way stow does. Makes it difficult to get started.

One thing that helped me when I was first getting into it: Chezmoi doesn't like compartmentalization like stow. It supports it, but it want's you to lean into the config langue a bit before you start doing that.

If you do that you can get away with only touching the add, cd, and update commands.

I liked stow, and used it for quite some time. That being said, it has issues. Issues community members have attempted to solve. Issues the sole maintainer wasn't addressing for quite a few years.

I use chezmoi now. I've still got mixed feelings, but the templating system is neat. Stow seems to have gotten out of it's slump while I was gone. That's good news! Anyone know if they addressed the tree specific folding/unfolding config feature? Not seeing anything in the docs...

Well, I won't lie. It's difficult.

Ideally you'd know this person and interact with them somewhat regularly. If it's online or this person believes they can ignore you without consequence then it won't matter how you address them beyond that initial interaction.

Don't use that as an excuse to feed into their believes though. There's a chance someone they know is already trying to coax them back to reality. If anything in that interaction makes them feel justified, it'll take 20x the effort to undo the mental hoops they'll jump through to rationalize the rest of their feelings.

It sucks. It's not fair to those impacted, but this is the only way to stop this radicalization and hardheadedness that plagues people nowadays.

Been replaying Watch_Dogs recently. Works surprisingly well. Probably going to play Gestalt next.

Dude, that doesn't help either

I have to do it all the time. I was born and raised in the south by (relatively) liberal parents. I recognize that some of my neighbors my not be up to the standards of the rest of the country, but (I can't believe I have to say this out loud) we shouldn't ostracize a geographic region of people because of social issues.

Social reform isn't achieved by running up to someone and saying "You're an uninformed idiot from a flyover state and what you believe is incorrect." It's achieved by saying, "I know you don't really mean that" when someone says some weird shit and calling them out in a more neutral environment. Unfortunately you have to convince people to be better. It's too easy to just close yourself off and decline into your own beliefs.

Man, saying things like this just further the divide without providing meaningful contributions to any of the current conversations.

Eaton is your best bet for compatibility in the consumer market.

I like phoronix.com but don't bother reading the article comments.

Pipe your clipboard contents through either of those depending on your windowing system. I'd recommend putting that in a script and binding it to a keyboard shortcut.

What am I missing here?

That shoddy code rots when you update the compiler. (And occasionally good code, depending on what rules the compiler wants to start enforcing)

These types of changes are inevitable.

Well, that diagram brings up an interesting point. In fediverse if the host dies the federated content can still live on (theoretically, I haven't checked to see if they cull content from dead hosts) but ATProto would dictate that the host is missing and therefore all content associated with the host is now immediately 404.

People out here complaining about Gentoo. My brother in Christ, you built the operating system.

I could appreciate a client certification that is optional, like a list of approved clients on their website or something along those lines.

It should not be enforced by killing the client. I like security, but I enjoy software freedom more.

Llvmpipe is enabled in mesa at compilation time and actually modifies the swrast_*.so the last time I checked. Not runtime configurable. Also, I know at one point it had issues running on 32 bit machines. Not sure if that's still the case.

Just add a new user

Not sure about the Eco tank line, but the smart tank line botched the IPP interface. Ink level reporting is always wrong and printer status is regularly wrong. Exposed settings are limited to push people to the app.

To be fair, C predates dependency hell. It was either there or it wasn't. C++ has less of an excuse, but it was just object oriented concepts taped to C so it's no surprise it was also missing dependency management.

Now with cmake, gnu-make, meson, gradel, and the world of metabuild systems that wrap those, nothing will change. It it does, it might as well kick start world war 3.

I'm currently use RiMusic, but I wish something would automatically sort through my ListenBrainz recommendations

We'll have a timeline for the plan to make the plan by next quarter
