Yeah, the config syntax is exactly the same. The major difference is the wayland version of various programs can be hard to figure out with out some decent google-fu.

I’m on BSPWM on X11, but have been trying river wm and that is a much less friendly conversion than i3 to sway. I’d convert entirely were it not for certain applications still not quite working on wayland without considerable configuration (wacom tablet drivers don’t work, screenshottung and eyedropper tools are available but still need more work to be feature comparable with equivalent tools on X11).

And I’m using proprietary NVIDIA drivers which are currently stuttering real bad on the wlroots protocol since driver update to 545 (sway/river both stutter bad whenever lots of movement on the screen, I’ve tried many tweaks to my environment variables to no avail).

So…just gonna wait for app, wayland, nvidia devs to eventually make the migrate worth while.

Others have already given you the summary, but if you’re interested in Brodie Robertson’s talk, going a bit in depth on the topic, here is the video.

Oh thank you so much for posting this. When Brodie Robertson covered this on his YT channel, I was so upset at how the fiasco with SimpleMobileTools played out, but also so glad somebody took over the mantle. Cheers!

I’d just wish to not be in Hell talking to Satan… I mean, literally anywhere else talking to literally anyone else is by definititon a better situation to be in.

To all contradictory replies, I said NOT be in Hell.

Just checked out the New Yorker site to see if my setup works. No paywalls encountered.

Use Ublock Origin with the Bypass Paywalls Clean List put in as a custom filter. Having NoScript extension sometimes prevents paywalls from showing as well.

Works on Desktop and Android (for Android, use Firefox Developer Edition or Mull browser as you can install Ublock/NoScript).

I learned to make home made chicken soup from scratch a while back and it’s the best. Lots of work, but worth it, especially when it’s cold or rainy.

The secret is adding chicken feet (about 1 lb per ~1.75 gallons of water) to the broth. It adds so much collagen, the soup is thick and delicious.

I like to also add parsley, carrot tops, a bay leaf, and a tablespoon of apple cider vinegar with roasted chicken bones to the broth as well. Pressure cook for an hour, or simmer for a day.

Strain the broth, add yukon potatoes, carrots, chopped onions, garlic, rosemary, thyme, sage, kosher salt, freshly ground black pepper. Pressure cook for another hour or simmer for two (or until potatoes are soft…).

Once done, add roasted chicken meat, and lightly simmer with fresh mushrooms and slowly whisk an egg in. Serve over cooked quinoa, topped with freshly chopped basil, cilantro, and/or green onions.

Obviously… I love this meal.

That would imply that first world nations empower them, not engage in societal subterfuge via overt and covert subjugation tactics.

To be fair, it would have been more of a W if Kissinger had died a long time ago. This is more like a really late consolation prize.

Though the same could be said of Trump, he has a lot more potential years (possibly even decades) of havoc to wreak. I guess, like our constant companion, Death, I’ll have to take what I can get.

What is this, a VSCode message? I use NeoVim on Linux and can only vaguely recall such a message from a time long ago…in a galaxy far far away…

z3rOR0ne,
@z3rOR0ne@lemmy.ml avatar

Neovim is a fork of Vim. It uses Lua for configuration instead of the original Vim’s VimScript, but still has a lot of interoperability with original Vim plugins and configuration options.

I use Artix Linux with runit and am happy. Artix offers multiple init systems other than systemd. If you’re familiar with using Arch Linux, basically Artix is the same without systemd.

You can install the various ISOs and see the differences for yourself, but the complaints launched against systemd that have any validity are either technical and/or philosophical in nature.

In a lot of ways, systemd has become like the JavaScript of init systems in that it handles a lot more than what it originally was needed for (init starts other processes after boot, JavaScript adds small amounts of interactivity to web pages).

As opposed to what each became (systemd now handles DNS, cron, bootloader, and is a suite of tools tightly coupled with the init system) (JavaScript has now become a scripting language with access to the C level exec library to the point where an OS can and has been written in it).

In the early days of systemd adoption, there was much controversy over its seemingly sudden mass adoption. SysV init needed a modern replacement, and indeed, alternatives like Upstart, openrc, and others were in production to eventually replace it. Lennart Poettering and Kay Sievers over at Red Hat created and heavily promoted systemd.

Lennart was already somewhat beloved/hated in the community as he had developed PulseAudio, which was a boon over the previous Alsa implementation, but was considered bloated and unnecessary by the less audio oriented Linux users of the time. He was inspired to create systemd after researching Apple’s new init implementation, launchd.

Controversy spread as Lennart would dismiss adoption of systemd into the BSD family of UNIX like OSes. He also dismissed competitors like Upstart, as their implementation of certain modern features like CGroups was not as developed as systemd at the time. Additionally, Linux users at the time were heavily concerned that Red Hat was trying to take over the entirety of the Linux space, enforcing a more corporate and commercial influence on what had previously been a community more in line with the aims of the FSF.

Much of this culminated in a months long email exchange on the Debian email list, where many of these grievances, pros and cons of systemd adoption, and overall discourse around this topic took place in 2013-2014. Eventually the result was that Debian adopted systemd as the default init system, which along with Fedora, Arch, and other distros, sealed the fate of other alternative init systems as being fringe, out of date, and irrelevant.

More and more system admins would learn the ins and outs of systemd as it would become required for their jobs, and the criticism of systemd became more and more quiet as it just became part of the every day Linux experience.

Truth be told, the birth of systemd really heralded in the death of the UNIX philosophy as an old way of thinking about software development and program scope. Doing one thing only, and doing it well, while looking good on paper, and oftentimes is a good general rule of thumb, doesn’t apply to modern application development, for better and worse.

I personally like runit not for its speed, but for its simplicity. I can peruse the C code in an afternoon and appreciate it for what it is, an init system. I can’t say the same when I look at systemd’s code.

But most could care less. As long as it works. And all the power to them…

It does surprise me somewhat, however, that Linux users will condemn bloated browsers, electron apps, and text editors, but will give a pass to systemd, which holds so much more importance over whether pid 1 even launches and starts user space.

Let the downvoting commence.

Linux Cast is…okay. The long form conversation format episodes are usually better than when its just Matt.

Brodie should definitely be at the top of this list. He works in tech, devotes himself emphatically to the subject of Linux, has some really amazing guests on his Tech Over Tea Podcast, and is imho THE Linux YouTuber atm.

Chris Titus Tech is more an honorable mention, as his channel focuses equally on Windows and Linux, but he has some amazing scripts for iptables configurations, and optimizing gaming on Linux, amongst other related topics.

The Linux Experiment is great for quick recap of Linux News. Learn Linux TV is great for Linux sysadmin tips.

I don’t care for Distrotube, I won’t go into details except to say I don’t support Trump. Similar sentiments go for the Bible thumper, Luke Smith, whom doesn’t really post much Linux content any more afaik. I will admit they did post useful bash scripts from time to time though.

Trafotin and Bugswriter are interesting channels in the Linux Youtube space that I think are worth checking out.

Overall though, if you’re looking for quality Linux content on Youtube that keeps you informed and up to date. You can’t go wrong with Brodie Robertson, The Linux Experiment, and Learn Linux TV. That’s all you really need imho.

Yep. I’ve tried other clients, but somehow this one just stuck for me. Simple interface, works well.

Agreed. Although The Fediverse also can’t easily be searched via your standard search engines, so finding that public information is harder than on other social media apps (for now…).

This isn’t to say there isn’t a privacy concern using any Fediverse Social media platform. It’s just that there are some inherent design implementations that make it hard for the average person to invade the privacy of a user of the platform.

This is, of course, afaik. Please let me know if I’m mistaken.

On Android, you can add Ublock to the Firefox mobile browser (use the Mull fork and you even have about:config). This plus NoScript gives a seamless experience between my phone and my Linux desktop. Almost never hear or see ads thanks to this and LibreTube/Sponsorblock.
