Sh 3 macht Sh-3-Dinge.

Und wieso hat du ’ne Maske auf?

Und was fällt ihnen ein, an meine Sachen zu gehen?

Die Firma nutzt das selbstentwickelte System eines Dienstleisters zur automatischen Bestellung von Toner. Der Dienstleister hat dreimal den Eigentümer gewechselt, inzwischen alle Entwickler des Systems entlassen und die Entwicklung ausgelagert, der einzige Mitarbeiter der in der Firma weiß, wie man das System konfiguriert hat vor 5 Jahren das Unternehmen verlassen.

Nicht, wenn man auf den Gleisen herumspaziert.

Und wenn er statt in Hamburg-Hbf einfach in Hamburg-Altona endet, gilt er als ausgefallen am Zielbahnhof und es ist egal, ob er 5 Minuten oder 5 Stunden Verspätung hat, weil er dadurch nicht in die Statistik einfließt.

For me personally: Triton. I remember reading it 25+ years ago. I really had to fight through it, after circa half of it I put it away and never touched it again.

So remarkably not my favorite book that I still feel the exhaustion when thinking about it.

Ach ja, danke! Ich vergesse echt jedes Mal, wie sehr sich die Politik für die Bürger einsetzt.

Also wird damit quasi Zwangsarbeit eingeführt.

How do y’all customize your terminals?

I only use one terminal (Alacritty). I do nothing more than just setting size, font, and colors. I basically took the config with me when I migrated from kittie to Alacritty. My kittie config mainly came from when I initially setting up xterm and later urxvt.

I love consistency and minimalism when it comes to setting up any kind of software. So my terminal configuration is basically the same since ca. 2007.

[window]
dimensions = { columns = 120, lines = 32 }
resize_increments = true # gets ignored, though

[font]
size = 14
normal = { family = 'DejaVu Sans Mono', style = 'Regular' }

[colors.primary]
foreground = '#d3d7cf'
background = '#2e3436'

[colors.normal]
black   = '#2e2e34'
red     = '#cc0000'
green   = '#4e9a06'
yellow  = '#c4a000'
blue    = '#3465a4'
magenta = '#75507b'
cyan    = '#06989a'
white   = '#d3d7cf'

[colors.bright]
black    = '#555753'
red      = '#ef2929'
green    = '#8ae234'
yellow   = '#fce94f'
blue     = '#729fcf'
magenta  = '#ad7fa8'
cyan     = '#34e2e2'
white    = '#eeeeec'

If you research this, you’ll find the U.S. Naval Research Laboratory website, and more specific, the Center for High Assurance Computer Systems, listing Tor as one of their products.

The Navy also has beef with the Army over Tor.

Why do people always think that Tor is a tool for anonymity? Its a government-funded system to pierce through other countries firewalls. Most exit nodes are controlled by the US government.

So Arch now is a corporate distribution?

Ich freue mich über diese Reform.

Der Preis wird trotzdem erhöht werden.

The screen capture protocol was merged a month ago.

That’s part of my issue I have with Wayland protocols. It was added a month ago. After several years! During research I found discussions ~6 years old, this PR was 2 years old, and superseded a 4 years old other request.

In the meantime some environments implemented that on their own without waiting for the protocol. If I understand correctly: Gnome as well as KDE have implemented it outside the protocol. And Hyprland devs forked wlroots to advance development faster and also add that. (Correct me if I’m wrong.)

Since labwc uses wlroots (but is a bit slow with adapting to new versions) it will take quite some time before I can put a checkmark after my last usecase. I am optimistic that it will work. But I accepted that it may take several years to add new functionality and a few months before the functionality arrives in wlroots and at some point after that in labwc.

No one will use a fork of Wayland. That would be suicide.

Famous last words …

No, they’re not.

You cannot even record single windows without having your DE patching that in for you.

X11 […] has become an unmaintainable patchwork of additions.

Wayland will be an unmaintainable patchwork of protocols, once it will have the same functionality as X11 has.

Now, 12 years later, it still is not production ready.

I use it on both my laptop and my desktop computer. It got better during the last 1-2 years.

While my laptop (13" 1080p screen) is pretty much fine running with Hyprland on an integrated Intel GPU, my desktop computer with a 28" 4K screen scaling is messed up completely and needs tweaking, sometimes down to a per-program base. Sometimes the font is gigantic sometimes I need a microscope to see anything. That was definitely better on X11.

On my desktop I run labwc, that does not come with own functionality regarding this: I just recently got whole-screen video recording and now have to wait likely another year or two for single-window recording. (There is a protocol for this, that took two years to be merged, which is just ridiculous for such a low-level base functionality that should be implemented from the beginning on.)

Other than that, all my common programs are running okay with Wayland.
