This is such a great response. I learned something from you today, thank you.

The phrase “for profit” is probably referring to the corporation’s structure. It isn’t related to whether the corporation is currently profitable.

Dunno if it would meet your needs, but I’ve been using Input Remapper for binding macros to various key presses and mouse buttons under Wayland. It does prompt for root access, but it’s a GUI. It supports any input method, as far as I can tell. It even supports my tablet.

I use it to bind stuff like hold(key(BTN_LEFT).wait(100)) to some button to repeatedly left click while I’m holding that button down.

What you’re saying here may be a valid concern, I don’t know. I gotta say though, the way you’re presenting it discourages people from taking you seriously.

The dramatic language, exclamation points everywhere, the OVERUSE of ALL CAPS for EMPHASIS and so on makes this feel like some Qanon nonsense from Aunt Karen, and the eyes glaze over very quickly while trying to decipher it.

Just a friendly note for future posts, you can take it or leave it.

Your original post doesn’t say Fahrenheit anywhere though. I mean, I’m a USian so I knew what you meant by “freedom degrees” but I don’t think it’s fair to act like everyone in the world who might see this post would know that phrase means Fahrenheit.

Single digit temperatures. One can always wear more clothing to keep warm, but can only get so naked in triple digit heat before dying from exhaustion or dehydration.

Yeah, Readarr is very awkward to use, but still sad to see going away. If the main problem is just a usable metadata server, maybe someone can save the project without much trouble.

Lidarr is similarly strange with it’s focus on artists and albums only, and apparently refusing to implement song search.

I feel like the developers of these two projects don’t actually use their own software to encounter the huge pain points, but maybe they have a use case that I don’t understand.

Your website is refreshingly simple and also manages to be unique looking. I like it!

I have been dating non monogamously for something like 15 years now. It’s not without it’s unique challenges, but most of the problems people have with polyamory are actually problems they have with monogamy as well, it’s just easier to avoid dealing with certain things (like relationship insecurity) when monogamy allows people to pretend they aren’t happening or to lionize expressing them negatively (as jealousy, for example).

In my opinion, even if you decide it’s not for you, exploring non monogamy is very likely going to give you better tools and healthier perspectives than you’d have if you remained “safely” monogamous your entire life.

Boards as in breadboards, I guess. That title assumes the reader will have a certain context.

I got excited thinking it was about managing board activity for nonprofits formed by developers.

Still, seems like a nice tool for people who do breadboarding!

OBS could do that, I suppose. Add a screen capture source, and place a color source behind it sized 10px larger than the screen capture rect. Hit record.

right click menu icons

I think they might be referring to icons next to menu items in the right click menu.

I think those icons can be handy sometimes, but I find them to be massively overused in KDE especially, to the point that it feels visually overwhelming sometimes. Having zero icons at all in GNOME might be the other extreme, but I appreciate how clean it looks.

Blender using icons strategically to visually group related items is probably the best of both worlds.

Are there rust haters? I guess there must be, but I don’t think I’ve run across that so much as the “everything ever made must be rewritten in rust” crowd, and then everyone else who doesn’t much care what language is used as long as it works.

Well this is bound to be controversial, to say the least. GNOME and systemd are two pieces of software that attract very polarized opinions.

I’m interested to see how this evolves. The planned session restore feature sounds nice. With the Wayland changes coming too, GNOME 50 should be a big deal, one way or another.

Conservative politics hasn’t meant any of that for a very long time. I think you need to find a new term to use if you want to be able to not have to explain this every time you ask for conservative communities to hang around in.

Also, none of that is necessarily right leaning (anarchy covers very similar ground, but obviously for extremely different reasons), so it doesn’t entirely answer the question of what kind of right leaning you are looking for.

Possibly using yt-dlp or one of the dozens of frontends for it. I don’t know if it works for YouTube Music, but it’s free and easy to use, so you might as well give it a shot.

We went ahead and disabled the X11 session by default and from now on it needs to be explicitly enabled when building the affected modules. (gnome-session, GDM, mutter/gnome-shell).

Aside from a simple flag change and a recompile before Canonical adds the packages to their repo, it doesn’t sound like this will affect Ubuntu at all. They probably already do this anyway to add their own little patches.

The most likely scenario is that all the X11 session code stays disabled by default for 49 with a planned removal for GNOME 50.

GNOME 50 is when Canonical will truly need to either move to Wayland or do something else.

Seems fairly reasonable of a timeline from the GNOME team, IMO.

Sadly, Duolingo is quickly becoming AI infested shit. I have been using it for years now, it’s very frustrating to see it declining in quality.

press your eyes real hard

You did say this originally in a way that could be concerning. It’s unsurprising that someone would advise caution.

the mild pressing

Then you understated yourself in response to someone showing care towards you.

gently pressing

In your quest to refuse to graciously accept any kind of good-natured advice, you’ve moved pretty far away from the “press your eyes real hard” that you started with.

You could have just said “Oh, thanks for the warning, I’ll be careful.” and moved on.

I used to use Pano for that, but it’s extension page hasn’t been updated since GNOME 45, so I switched to Clipboard History instead. It’s not quite as pretty (just a normal popup menu, no previews) but it is actually nicer to use, in my opinion.

Both options can be bound to Super+V, that’s exactly the key combo I use for it.
