Zoxide, lets you quickly jump to places in your filesystem. E.g. z pic will put you in ~/Pictures.

Xenia wouldn't suggest that :c (lemmy.world)

please don’t harrass or insult that website, but I recently browsed that website because I wanted to get a wallpaper, but then I realized the top bar was saying “Xenia suggests you get Firefox”, wait what?? She wouldn’t suggest that first of all, second, this means that the website knows if you are using Google or...

flamingos,

Chrome, and browsers based on it, currently account for more than three quarters of web traffic. This gives Google a huge amount of power over the web and how people are able to interact with it. Google is also a company who’s primary business is advertising and surveillance; this means they have every incentive to curtail your ability to stop websites from spying on you and force you to use the web on their terms. They’re currently exercising this power with the rollout of Manifest V3, where they’re severely limiting the functionality of content blocking extensions like uBlock Origin.

flamingos,

Checking if the user is using Firefox is pretty easy:


<span style="color:#323232;">CSS.supports('(-moz-user-input: none)') // only returns true in FF
</span>
flamingos,

Damn, what are the odds?

flamingos,

GTK currently has a CSS extension that lets you define named colours with @define-color.

flamingos,

Why wouldn’t you use Afghanistan, the county America actually occupied for 20 years, here?

What’s the flag south of the Confederate one? I can’t find it on here.

Edit: Never mind, it’s Rhodesia

    flamingos,

    I’m from the UK and I was definitely taught to use the genderless he in formal writing, I remember my teacher commenting on how sexist it was.

    Also, no idea where you got the idea that the singular they is only a hundred years old, Oxford puts the earliest use of it to the fifteenth century.

    flamingos,

    It’s main advantage, as far as I can tell, is having a much simpler interface. It’s snapping tools are trivial to use and discover, but far less robust than Krita’s assistant tool. It’s easier to add brushes, but you have far less options in configuring them. I don’t thinks there’s anything that Firealpaca can do that’s partially hard to do in Krita. Also, Firealpaca doesn’t have a dark mode.

    I’m not an experienced artist though, so take my opinion with a grain of salt.

    flamingos,

    Its brush engine is kinda bad though. You basically have to turn on “Zero pressure at both ends” and put the stabiliser up to like 15 to get anything usable. Not sure I can recommend it.

    flamingos,

    Tablet, for whatever reason it gives blobby output like this:

    Where did they deny the Holocaust? The comment that got removed for ‘spreading nazi misinfo’ seems to be them calling the modern Russian and Chinese states dictatorships that are engaging in genocide.

    flamingos,

    devs are begging

    Do you mean beginning?
