If you make your own he’s looking forward to seeing it.
Not a programmer whatsoever but I’ve heard about Zig and people comparing it to Rust, what’s the deal with it?

But it wasn’t “win XP mode”, and if you take a look, it doesn’t look like it at all - it was an attempt from RedHat to provide a consistent look to both GNOME and KDE. There were Windows ports of Bluecurve.
(TIL Bluecurve caused a domino effect that made a developer quit RedHat)
For what it’s worth, yesterday this thing was mentioned here.
Yeah, no. Pretty bad argument.
When you buy a phone you know it will have calls and SMS - it’s what you bought the phone in the first place. You bought them because of that. RCS is still just a fancy alternative.
Barring that, the EU’s DMA is forcing the most important chat apps to interoperate at the very least, though full support (including calling and such) isn’t mandatory until somewhere in 2027.
And you’re missing the point again - a company doing a multi IM service app, like Beeper Mini, is not the same that a group of volunteers doing a multi service IM app, like Pidgin. They’re still going to be closed source and they will not guarantee to give support for platforms people need. Beeper mini on desktop? Beeper mini on Linux/BSD? Forget it.
I think they mean it more as it’s not only gonna be Google but Apple who are going to be shoving RCS down their throats of people wether they want it or not by shipping it as default.
On the other hand, the era when corporations cared even the tiniest bit for open standards in instant messaging was gone long ago. Now all instant messaging is a complete mess, we users have to deal with a myriad of apps and protocols that in the end are doing the same thing for the sake of “privacy”, and RCS will not fix that. Nor Signal, truth be told.
I yearn the glory days of multi-protocol IM apps like Pidgin and Trident on Android (though +IM seems to still be a thing) - when you could use whatever you wanted without “missing features” or risking to be banned.
I installed Fedora on a 2015 MacBook pro. It works well, though the camera doesn’t work and bt is bonky, to say the least - but I couldn’t care less about that.
Of course it’s a good thing, but it’s not something Gentoo is particuarly goot at it (nor any distro, that is) but its detractors claim Gentoo says is “lean on resources” only to “debunk” that.
And the myth that is “supercomplicated”, but in the end the only “difficult” part is to install it - in the daily, pedestrian usage it’s pretty much like any other (rolling release) distro. Well, of course except package installation/update times, but it’s beyond to me why people created that false urgency of needing to have everything installed and updated the second you issued the command. It’s not like you won’t be able to use your computer at all while Portage does its thing.
Apparently you can use the USE FLAGS to determine what stuff you want and it’s meant to be even more lean on resources.
True and false; the “something special” in Gentoo is that you can tailor it to fit to your needs, and as far as I know no other distro comes even close - maybe the now almost defuct Funtoo. The “it’s more lean on resources” always seemed to me like a strawman people don’t like it came up with to diss on Gentoo.
No need to thank me, I’d like to contribute by coding but I have no idea about Java/Kotlin/Dart/etc so… I hope you keep with it though - I’d try it again in the future to see how it’s going and hopefully move to Ion. Again, the fact it its FOSS it’s a big plus.
Not a fan of semi-serif fonts, and not digging the rounded “corners” on E and L (while having sharp ones in lowercase L and lowercase i), but it seems it is trying to be highly readable so indeed it should be great for UI stuff. And doing a complete typeface covering such huge character map is no easy job.
I mean, iOS is not doing better in that sense. They both are already mature systems and I think it would be great if they concentrate in polishing and perfecting what they already have (and hope AOSP doesn’t fall into the AI crap) but I guess that’s just me.
It depends on who you ask. If you ask this to a M$ refugee, they will praise it. If you ask a *BSD user, they will bitch about it.
Kinda like it, and mostly because it’s FOSS, but will keep using “Home Launcher” (app.homelauncher, 28.0.28):
Great, now the next time I’ll use nano I surely will forget about this and get frustrated when trying to save a file with Ctrl+O
The problem I had with nano is that, for the time being, it was supposed to be easy to use. With that in account I always get lost when saving a file and closing the thing because one’s used to doing something else with Ctrl+O and Ctrl+X.
Whereas with Vim (and Neovim for a little while, and now with Vis) I knew it had a steep learning curve from the start so I always had it in mind. And all the funny stories about quitting vim.
First and foremost, that my hardware peripherals work with it (wifi card, camera, bt stuff if you have it…) - if not (and hope you don’t nor would be frustrated by it happens), that there’s a way to make it work
I got a 1ii and though LineageOS works great compared to stock, it still has its downsides - on the top of my head screen mirroring is lost and since LOS21 can’t make Magisk w/ zigisk work.
I mean, if the intention is to reflect the utterly bad decisions Mozilla has made, this new logo would be spot on
I liked the icon only (“mac-style”) layout they had in KDE 4.
I’d think about something with Xfce on it, like a Fedora Xfce spin
