And that's exactly why I've already given up on AI before even really getting into it. The only things I use it for is when I want a basic skeleton for a simple script with the intention of turning it into a real script myself. It's also pretty good at generating grep, sed and awk commands and oneliners (or at least it was when I last tried it), and sometimes, in spotting mistakes with them.
Yeah, I use a tiling WM at home, so having to deal with Windows' way of doing things at college computers was very annoying, especially when the Super+L keybind I used to Launch apps, was used on Windows to Lock the machine. Locking your PC while trying to open an app is very, very annoying.
Also I stopped Using Emacs.... because it's very slow
I've been using a mix of Emacs and Neovim and plan to switch completely to Neovim when I have replicated enough of my Emacs config to be comfortable in Neovim. And speed is the main reason why.
Also, qutebrowser. I want to use it but it lacks workspaces support and as a self proclaimed tab hoarder I need my workspaces. I'm also still looking into a pasword manager for it (though I can always just use Bitwarden as an app)
Agreed, but I found getting NixOS the way I want it, to be super overwhelming, and documentation simply sucks. I've been thinking of forking ZaneyOS (Link: https://gitlab.com/Zaney/zaneyos) and basing my NixOS config on it. Otherwise, it's just too much.
Agreed. But I'm SO tired of trying to find and configure a good tiling WM that has rounded corners and isn't impossible to install or created by assholes (it also helps that nice QoL features like easy kb layout switching are included ootb).
Qtile, when scenefx support happens (which will happen when scenefx releases v1.0 aka anytime between this year and the next decade by the looks of things), will be perfect for me but until then, I'm torn between Qtile, Hyprland and COSMIC.
Try kickstart.nvim. I was skeptical until I tried it. It's a very good starting point for Neovim. Pretty much eberything else I've ever tried is either too bloated, too complicated, too outdated, too overwhelming, or a mix of the above. Link: https://github.com/nvim-lua/kickstart.nvim
I highly recommend trying out a tiling window manager. Yes, they exist for Windows. No, they're not as good as on Linux or BSD, but it's a completely different workflow and you won't know if it's for you until you try it. Komorebi seems to be a popular choice. I tried workspacer but it was a PITA to configure (I say that as someone experienced in configuring and using a tiler). The Komorebi discord seems to have a channel for sharing configs so you can check it out as a source of inspiration or as a base to build your own config onto.
Also, a package manager like scoop or chocolatey. If I had to return to Windows, this would be a nonnegotiable.
Also, Chris Titus' winutil for debloating, removing spyware, installing good common software and running a range of tweaks (including disabling or delaying feature updates for better stability).
Vivaldi. Yes, it's technically proprietary (if you care about that stuff) but it's really good, if you're a power user in the browser, or if you're a tab hoarder. I can't see myself living without workspaces in the browser now. And the panel is nice if you're into it.
I've had 3 pairs of them so far. First one held up really well (I think it was their cheapest model), until the connection got a bit shitty. Second pair, the Casette, lasted for about 2-3 years, until it broke around the side. (y'know, the weakpoint of any pair of headphones?). I'm on a Hesh Evo rn and have no complaints currently. That is subject to change, however, as I've only had them for less than a year.
What headphones would you recommend? From what I've seen, they all have a weakpoint, making them susceptible to breakage pretty easily.
I'll be honest, I use bash and the only benefit using ble.sh has over zsh, is that vi(m) mode is better than zsh. For example, more complex commands like di" (delete inside ") don't work in zsh, but work in bash with ble.sh. Also, I found ble.sh far more complicated and took me a while to get it configured. Even now, some completions, especially tab completion, isn't as good in bash as in zsh. In fact, the only issues I had with zsh compared to ble.sh were vi mode related. More specifically, the aforementioned lack of advanced vi(m) mode commands, and the limited support for showing the current vi mode in the prompt, for example for Visual mode (Normal and Insert mode seem to be the only ones to work).
So if you need advanced vi(m) mode, get ble.sh configured. Otherwise, go for zsh.
I genuinely think this is stupid. If you're worried about unverified flatpaks being a security risk so much so that you disable them from your software center, at least you could keep their reviews so users could at least know if the app can be trusted.
I love Linux Mint. What Clem and team have been able to do and keep on doing is simply amazing, but in this case, for that specific part of this new choice, I'll have to disagree.
River really is a wonderful project and I wish more people knew about it and used it
I'm especially excited for its future as River will become more of a base upon which you can build your own Window Manager, rather than just a Layout Generator, and as such, it will more or less follow the Emacs path: here's a default use case for our system, you're free to build whatever you want on top of it!
I'm SO excited for river 0.4.0 as it will bring a massive architectural change which will basically allow people to build their own Window Manager on top of River. Currently, River is a Wayland Compositor with an extensible Layout Generator Process support via a custom protocol. This change will essentially make River into a hyper-extensible Window manager building system which will make it immensely powerful.
Wait, do you actually want those companies to make even more money from your data, and want these environmentally disastrous "bullshit generators" to keep on going? I'm not saying stopping them is realistically possible, but if I had to choose, I'd greatly prefer a world without AI.
Well done to Vaxry and co for achieving such a feat! I still think it's completely pointless but at least it will mean that it can now be more easily packaged for other distros, as it avoids the issue with using tagged wlroots.
I hope not. I see the Arch packager there, and I'm not sure if they'd have continued to package calibre after Arch got rid of Python 2.
