I don’t think I have any federation issues (at least directly), but yeah I don’t get replies probably because what I post is too niche. On 3 posts so far at least (~8 upvotes each) in 3 different communities.

Well, looking back most anything I post is probably doomed this way no matter the instance, unless maybe it’s something more general or eye-catching on a bigger community.

For a practical test, search for kbin.social (and then ctrl+f for it also to get the direct results). Or, just look at a community: !kbinMeta@kbin.social

The only thing that appears missing is the avatars images. Though I assume the text content is doomed in the long-run when it comes to new instances, as I doubt re-federation (3rd-party federation) is a thing. Unless of course, someone manually crossposts said content.

alarm-clock-applet allows custom commands. So put systemctl suspend into a timer, bingo.

rtcwake to wake the computer up, for-better-or-worse the music will still be playing.

Someone else mentioned android, VLC there does have a sleep timer (just to stop the music) I didn’t see an equivalent option in the desktop version (at a quick glance) though.

In SMPlayer I do see the option ‘shut down computer’ as a sub-option for `close when finished playback’ (general options)

You know, I’m somewhat of a coding enthusiast myself.

Difficult to think of projects that I want to do that are also viable for me now. I settled on Minesweeper (/a dragonsweeper-like) though I lost momentum as I got a bit hung up on how to implement it in a way that’d allow dynamic map sizes. I suppose I should just make it as simple as I can and then differentiate it later.

Mostly been ignoring it though, instead making efforts to organize my room. Any personal growth is good, right?

I would also like an excuse to make some polygonal art (2D or 3D) but I don’t have many ideas there either, and many ideas of which would probably be an insignificant amount of actual coding compared to animation.

just introduce new users to GNOME, that’s perfectly intuitive and even looks great!

Gnome 2 sure, modern not so much. I mean when useful features are cut from the GUI it just means it’s harder to actually do things. Like removing “open in terminal” made non-GUI stuff more difficult (esp. w/complicated directory).

I’d say XFCE or Cinnamon or anything else like those are better.

i think the significance of the ‘lemmy.world’ is the origin of the post… in this case the_picard_maneuver@lemmy.world posted it to sh.itjust.works

Close, it’s where the image is hosted. The lemmy.world bit is a link to the image. Just like how any website link will say the domain of the destination.

I mean it probably is where a user is posting from, but sometimes it is not (not sure why but sometimes non-ml users will post images from ml)

I lost interest enough to delete the models I had before and this headline made me look into deepseek.

EDIT: Not quite the Streisand Effect considering I already knew about it, but still an unintended source of pressure. Like someone stockpiling before a ban of something, even if they weren’t too avid about it before. I’ve had a similar thought when it comes to taking down free streaming sites.

Though this seems to have traded compute for data, so I don’t have the VRAM for it… even running through RAM, I don’t feel like downloading a lesser version with my slow-ish internet.

I am only interested in a niche compiled-to-<C/C++/JS> language due to the capability/speed while keeping readability. With that in mind, I wonder if Python’s JIT and no-GIL update will slow or reverse the stated trend (assuming it’s true at all).

Though it’s still an issue with bindings for something I can already use with my preferred lang, so is one reason why I haven’t tried it.

Never had one but have family who has their VR headsets and aren’t really using them, borderline useless if you aren’t willing to use their ecosystem. They were having some trouble with their accounts (probably related to account migrations) and seemed too unsettled by the paper wall of text about being part of an organization to unlock dev mode.

I mostly do untextured low-poly stuff so I’ll think I’ll leave that one to the brofessionals. It doesn’t seem like a good starting point.

Yes, but also I don’t have much programming experience or even viable beginner project ideas. Also interested in polygonal art but can’t do much there either.

So add in other issues and it really ends up as

I understand fragmentation here, as you can get what you need in a format that works well-enough.

Different package formats often have technical differences. Recently I had the choice to use something from a flatpak to reduce lib32 dependencies on my system… but I didn’t go with that as the other dependencies it needed (openGL, graphics driver etc) were redundant thanks to sandboxing (~2GB download!).

Anything native from itch, GOG, or humble doesn’t really ‘install’ but rather they are just extracted… so the files should be what it is (portable, except game saves/user data likely won’t be). This allows you to run it off of a slower+larger-capacity drive.

EDIT: Also if you need to compile it, probably will also just compiled to where you put it (to a bin folder).

Non-system stuff like this is more viable for things that you don’t need updated frequently/ever (particularly games/software post-development). For sure most-of-the-time the best experience is via your package manager.

It was too slow for an edit, but this is the older version screenshot (note:Imgur only loads links for me with a private window)

One small benefit of the current layout is that I can see both edges of a rolled-up window (when focused).

I would definitely try more things if I had more control. Big text would be nice with content overlap (or outside window+outlined+noBG?), inset controls especially if dynamic. Maybe even different placements of title or buttons.

Fair, I have no idea if there’s much interest.

For difficulty, I would make wider+more spaced buttons if dynamic sizing were a thing (without it, small windows would have shorter titles when focused).

If you mean visually, yeah not many pixels and with this layout I cannot put a background behind the window buttons without it spanning to the title. The previous version has it but was right-justified, so cannot have the buttons disappear without the title shifting (the shown version allows longer titles when unfocused).

I have the same issue on an Arch derivative with XFCE and a 1050Ti. From what I can find online this is related to a change with SystemD, though when I tried the suggested fixes they didn’t seem to work.

It has been a while since this issue started and updates seem to have not fixed it (though I am not currently updated). Annoying especially as I used to use my computer to wake up.
