This is really solid floating wm with low ram footprint and infinite customization possibilities. Unfortunately the default is configuring it all with one huge conf file
It has an option to build with Go Lang (google programming language - like rust but googled) and this provides a minimalistic terminal window as a wm console (called fvwm-prompt) but without this pest code it builds the alternative called fvwm-console, which is just as good.
All other whistles and bells are turned on so enjoy playing with it.
Iran warns of technical measures if the IAEA issues a resolution against its nuclear program, slamming the agency's report as politically driven and influenced by Israeli intelligence. Tehran vows not to bow to Western pressure.
At least last few days I remembering a Cory Doctorow's ( @pluralistic ) "Walkaway" science fiction novel.
It is about "walkaways" who tired of that shit and trying to live outside of the capitalistic world and about an extra reach oligarchy who breaks (or breaked?) the world (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Walkaway… ). And looks like it is not a fiction now
In #puppet building we wear respirators to protect from toxic fumes caused by industrial adhesives. They are commonly available at hardware stores and apparently protect against tear gas which I mention as an interesting fact that you may or may not have use of.
"You took an oath to the Constitution, not to the fascist in the White House." Wyatt Russell to the #NationalGuard at #ICE protest.
He's a child of Kurt Russell & Goldie Hawn, LA celebrities. Maybe this'll get picked up by @TMZ @people @time to reach folks that only watch Fox. Sadly, it won't make cable news, no violence. This is a counter message we can share. No violence. Words. Peaceful protest. @GottaLaff @lolgop @jimstewartson @emptywheel
I replaced the motherboard on a HP EliteBook 840 G6 laptop. Success. Upgraded from an Intel i5 to i7, since I found a good price for a motherboard with i7 on ebay.

@Em Thank you for the concern, but at this moment LA is still pretty safe. Just writing this as a check to the “LA has descended into chaos” headlines, which are adding fuel to Trump's bullshit about the military being necessary to keep the peace in LA

Recently, I asked several random Americans what they thought about my idea of hitchhiking across the USA. To remind you, last year I hitchhiked through part of Europe and was absolutely thrilled with the experience.
Here's what's interesting: most Americans strongly advise against repeating such an experiment in their country. They say it's dangerous. But I still can't understand if this is a real objective danger or just a stereotype that has stuck in their minds.
In general, I'm slightly confused. I don't want to abandon the idea, but I also don't want to take thoughtless risks. Maybe someone has experience or an outside perspective?
@mitch The above is a very good point, I can't imagine anyone would stop. But at this point in time, I would be worried about your safety if someone did stop
@Henry Fisher When I was younger I used to hitch-hike, particularly during an era when I did not have an automobile, but it seems society has gone ape shit here in the last two decades.
Maybe watch the Hitchhiking scene in Fear and Loathing in Los Vegas 😁.

I studied computer science and wrote my thesis on graph neural networks. I'm confident I understand AI better than those clueless dimwits who ask ChatGPT what they should have for dinner and end up eating pizza with glue and rocks. Or break production with their garbage code.
This post (and especially their "AI fluency" matrix) by the CEO of Zapier horrifies me.
What they're looking for are trained monkeys.
How many of these LLM users they're selecting for have ever done any academic research on AI? How many have ever trained a model themselves? How many actually understand the math and the theory behind it? How many had even just a linear algebra undergraduate course?
Meanwhile, those with a real understanding of AI are deemed "Unacceptable". Incapable.
Let these morons who coerce you into using LLMs have their production environment broken a couple of times. They truly deserve it. Fill their Confluence with the AI-generated garbage they crave so much. And then quit. old.mermaid.town/@Kymberly/114…
50 steps ain't shit, but this is an interesting idea. Maybe it'll get more people to realize that aging does not necessarily mean becoming bloated, feeble, and sick.
ICE abducted folks today. They say it's going down. It happened even in LA, a sanctuary town. But most the news is something else, so you might have never known. Can you imagine how it feels to be taken from your home?
And now my voice has given way to singing like a drum. Tears have been your food today, and sleep has never come. I bet it hollows out your belly, eats you to the bone. Can you imagine how it feels to be taken from your home?

Concerns over excessive force grew as the situation became increasingly chaotic, especially after President Donald Trump bypassed state leadership to deploy National Guard troops on Sunday.
I would go further - All blockchain cryptocurrencies are obsolete given proposals for digital cash systems like GNU Taler use blinded signatures which are more resource efficient to deploy and use.
But these digital cash systems are designed to interface with the existing economy and make it difficult to avoid tax, so of course, they're not going to get the same level of hype from those who finance the cryptocurrency industry.

I've been known to put garlic salt in a bowl of Cheerios before, so I guess I'd try it at least once, if it was a real thing of course.. 🤷♂️
Disclaimer: Back when I'd put garlic salt in Cheerios, the reason was I had a dental cavity and sugar was hurting my teeth, but I also didn't want my cereal tasting like cardboard.

Arch and Arch based distros seem to represent 29% of answers, way higher than Ubuntu and Ubuntu based distros, at 22% including Linux Mint, or 16% not including it. It's higher than Fedora at 19% of answers.
Another surprising number is NixOS, sitting at 7%. Final thing that surprised me is SteamOS: it only got 39 answers, meaning virtually no one seems to use their Steam Deck as their main computer.
89% of people who answered the survey said that they don't use an immutable distro.
Plasma is, on the surface, the most used DE out there, it sits at 30%.Vanilla GNOME sits at 14%, but if we tally up all GNOME implementations, we land on 35%, beating KDE pretty soundly.
Tiling WMs gathered up 21% of votes, meaning that they're actually the third thing used by people, far above any other DE than GNOME and KDE.
Hyprland seems to be very popular right now, at almost 48% of answers. We also have Sway, at 12%, i3 at 11%, and then a smattering of others, like AwesomeWM, bspwm, qtile, xmonad and more.
Speaking of which: Wayland got 66% of answers here, versus 34% for X11.
As per hardware, I asked people which kind of GPU and CPU they used. For CPUs, AMD and Intel are really evenly matched, at 50% for AMD and 49% for Intel, the last % being for ARM based CPUs.
As per GPUs, AMD takes the lead here, but not by much, we get to 39% of answers.
22% of people who answered only have an Nvidia GPU, so that's still pretty high, and if we add Nvidia GPUs as a hybrid configuration in a laptop, we land on 37%.
Pure Intel configurations, represent 22% of answers for integrated graphics, and 1% for dedicated Intel only, plus another % for people who run a hybrid config with a dedicated Intel GPU, so at most 24%.
As per the provenance of that hardware, a lot of people seem to build their own computers to run Linux on, at 44%. 40% of people who took the survey bought a PC from a major window manufacturer, with WIndows preinstalled, or no OS if the option was available.
Apart from that, only 4% said they used a computer from a Linux manufacturer, like TUxedo, System76, Slimbook, and the like, 2% use a mac, and, interestingly, 5% bought a computer from a major manufacturer with Linux preinstalled, so presumably from Dell or Lenovo, as these are the 2 main ones that have the option, AFAIK.
I paired that question with another one, asking how well Linux ran on people's computers, and overwhelmingly, it seems that hardware compatibility is great these days. 63% of respondents said they experienced 0 issues after installing Linux, and 23% said they did have small problems that they could fix. Only 13% said there's still hardware that doesn't work at all, and 1% said their computer performs pretty badly under Linux.
66% of people who answered use flatpaks mixed in with packages from other sources, and 6% only use this format, meaning we're at almost 3/4 of respondants that use Flatpaks daily.
The results are not as positive for other formats, with Snaps not being used at all by 84% of people who answered, and 54% of people not using APpImages at all.
On the topic of applications, Firefox seems to be the asbolute most poplar browser here, at 68%, with an extra 9% for Firefox derivatives like Librewolf.

@fonecokid@c.im There's a simple and easy way to solve this but too bad #Newsom doesn't have the balls to do it. Shut off the water and electricity to every Federal building in Los Angeles. Have the Fire Marshals condemn the buildings and render them uninhabitable. Fire Marshals have to be allowed access to any building to conduct Fire Code inspections. They can not legally be denied. But we know they will be. So when they are, have them declare the buildings not safe for occupancy and order the electric and water to be shut off. The Federal Government does not trump the State Fire Marshal. Full stop. Too bad Newsom is too chicken-shit to actually do this though.
The face of the national guard personnel that is presently deployed in Los Angeles. Who wants to take odds on how long it will be before they start to mutiny and join with the rioters?
Similar to how the term 'digital' has shifted from doing numeric calculations and storage to how it's used today, referring to content you purchase and stream or download from the internet.
Terminology changes over time, and I'm not sure that I like some of the changes. 🤷
There’s nothing particularly “smart” about machine learning models. They are still programs that run on computers, the only difference is that they are made by another program rather than by a human, so they are too complicated for humans to meaningfully read.
Also, the meaning of digital hasn’t really changed. It still refers to information that is represented in bits rather than some analog format.
I once asked AI a question, "How do you inflate a foldable phone?"
If it was smart, it should have responded with something like 'This question doesn't make sense, but here are some related articles to help you.'
But no no no, it literally wrote out instructions for me that almost looked perfectly professional, except it just replaced 'inner tube' with 'folding phone'...
If AI keeps hallucinating like that, and people accept it as somehow being 'smarter' than humans, then indeed we might just be on track for a new dumb generation of humans that just accept bullshit as fact.
It sounds like there might be a misunderstanding about how foldable phones work!
Foldable phones are not inflated. They are highly sophisticated electronic devices with a flexible screen and a complex hinge mechanism that allows them to bend or fold.
Here's how they generally work:
Flexible Display: Unlike traditional smartphones with rigid glass screens, foldable phones use flexible OLED (Organic Light-Emitting Diode) or AMOLED displays. These displays are built on a plastic or polyimide substrate, which is much more flexible and can bend without breaking.
Hinge Mechanism: This is a crucial component. Manufacturers like Samsung, Google, Huawei, and others have developed intricate hinge designs (often involving multiple interlocking gears) that allow the phone to fold and unfold smoothly and precisely. The hinge is designed to be durable and withstand thousands of folds.
Software Optimization: The operating system (usually Android) is optimized to adapt to the different screen states. When the phone is folded, it functions like a compact smartphone. When unfolded, the software seamlessly adjusts the interface to take advantage of the larger, tablet-like screen, enabling multitasking and enhanced viewing experiences.
Materials: While the core display is flexible, manufacturers often use ultra-thin glass (UTG) or specialized flexible plastic layers on top for improved scratch resistance and a more premium feel.
So, to be clear, you don't "inflate" a foldable phone like a balloon. You simply unfold it to reveal the larger screen, and fold it back up for a more compact form factor.
Make sure your phone is turned off and that the battery is fully charged.
Find the inflation port on your phone. It is usually located on the bottom edge of the phone.
Connect the inflation hose to the inflation port.
Turn on the inflator and start inflating the phone.
Once the phone is fully inflated, disconnect the inflation hose and turn off the inflator.
Your phone is now ready to use.
Please note that this is just a general tutorial. The specific steps may vary depending on the model of your phone. Always consult your phone's user manual for more specific instructions. Here are some additional tips:
Use a slow and steady stream of air when inflating your phone.
Do not over-inflate your phone. This could damage the phone.
If you have any problems inflating your phone, consult your phone's manufacturer or a qualified technician.
