I’ll be so glad to ditch maliit, it isn’t responsive at all and gets pushed off the screen by a simple vertical taskbar. Even worse, it spams the journal with so much unnecessary debug info that I never found any way to turn off or filter out.

…wat? It’s not because there’s rules (he very well could have simply snapped his fingers), it’s because he wanted to demonstrate to us how much he loved us. It has to do with the whole “he is the embodiment of both perfect love and perfect justice” thing.

It doesn’t usually matter, though you could have a script in your dotfiles to bootstrap the installation of everything needed. I haven’t bothered because I very rarely set up new machines, but for a VM warrior that’s what I would recommend for sure. You can use chezmoi templates to automatically use apt/dnf/yum/zypper/brew/whatever and export different envs depending on your platform and shell.

I use chezmoi which syncs via my private Gitea instance. I can’t imagine not using a VCS for dotfiles, the number of times I’ve edited my ZSH aliases file or my VSCodium settings.json on both my desktop and my laptop and then had to merge the changes together is… a lot. A new setup is as simple as installing chezmoi, logging in to Bitwarden, downloading my Gitea SSH key, and cloning. The templates handle customizing things to the platform I’m on. I can do it over HTTPS using any backend the Git credential store supports too.

For small personal deployments, is SQLite support planned? It’s crazy performant and I have to imagine it would work for up to 500 contacts at the very least, which should cover the majority of deployments. Making Redis optional (otherwise using a basic in-memory KV store of some kind) would also be cool.

For a second I read this as “create my own 3D engine in Scratch” and was immediately both amused and horrified. 😆😵‍💫

Looks… nice. The main problem I have with it is that it’s not an electric El Camino/Ranchero revival. C’mon carmakers, we want sedans with beds! You could shape it into a long hatchback with a removable/retractable bed cover too.

…this started as /s, but now I’m not sure. That convertible bed electric hatchback sounds kinda sick. ^(Cue someone telling me it already exists. No, the '24 Santa Cruz doesn’t count, it has the size and styling of a small truck.)

Konsole also supports split panes, support would be awesome if it isn’t in already.

Well if they’d rather die they’d better do it, and decrease the surplus population!

A small local payroll company. Her boss is just a good guy who likes to treat people.

My wife’s boss (owner of the company) took all the employees and their spouses on a four day Caribbean cruise about a year ago. Was really nice. Granted, there are only like 10 people in her organization.

Oh jeez, what the heck? I have no idea, Lemmy seems to be doing something it thinks is smart but is, in fact, not.

EDIT: Fixed! Apparently you have to include the https:// part or the formatting goes bonkers. No idea if it’s a Lemmy thing or an issue with my instance.

Mint is FOSS and free of hardware restrictions, so if you don’t mind having to teach yourself how to fix the odd issue here and there, it’s probably the better option. That said, macOS is definitely a more seamless and full-featured experience (whether that matters to you is personal preference). I use it plenty at work, it’s pretty nice for the average user. Personally, I switched from Windows to Mint years ago, but now I’m on KDE Neon because I needed Wayland support and fell in love with KDE Plasma in the process. Mint/Cinnamon should be stable on Wayland within the next year or two though, so that’s cool.

The problem is asking a fundamentally subjective question in a way that presupposes it to be objective truth.

If you instead asked,

What are some advantages that Linux Mint and macOS have over each other?

…you might get more useful answers—from people, that is. AI will just give you what you think you want to hear.

I knew what that link was before even opening it. 🍿💦💨🪄

Similar situation: I legit taught myself how to use aircrack-ng when I was like 12 because I wanted to play Mario Kart on my grandma’s Wii, but it needed internet to download an update, which she didn’t have. However, the neighbor had a WEP-encrypted network, and I was staying the night. The rest is history.

Oh my gosh I am so excited the dashboard naming choices are finally here, I’ve been watching that issue for a couple months. Hopefully no more naming an ESPHome node Living Room TV Node and the dashboard instead showing nonsense like Living Room Living Room TV Living Room Node. Though, not sure if the actual entity ids will follow, that is the bigger issue. 🤔

Idk, I can think of plenty. Pricing models (finding comps and such) can be compiled in a fraction of the time! Online listings have AI-generated images of what different remodel options could look like! So on and so forth.
