Why would you fixate on drag-and-drop specifically like it’s granted? If the software developer developed it, it’s supported; if it wasn’t developed, it doesn’t work. If you’re not happy, open a pull request. You have no right to demand features from open source developers even if you donate.

Notepad++ sits at an odd place. It’s heavier than Vim or Emacs. It’s not as feature-rich as some IDEs. That’s why it failed in Linux where alternatives are many.

Linux@programming.dev•The Distroless Linux Future May Be Coming
9·8 days agoWhat the heck is this please? The GitHub link contains nothing about “distroless”.
But the slowness… I have a stroke every time I press tab after any git command in Git Bash. The piece of shit takes three seconds to respond. In Linux it happens instantaneously.

Linux@lemmy.ml•Is musl libc still not suitable for workstations?
1·11 days agoI think it was around the same time when I disabled it altogether in the Makefiles of some software. Let’s hope it’s upstream now.

Linux@lemmy.ml•Is musl libc still not suitable for workstations?
2·12 days agoThe list is definitely longer than that. I switched to musl overlay about three years ago and I couldn’t daily drive it. I guess the six comes from no one is using it.

Linux@lemmy.ml•Is musl libc still not suitable for workstations?
1·12 days agoGoogle Crashpad is used for crash reporting by some program, and it can’t be built with musl. It also does not build in FreeBSD, and I suspect it only works with glibc outside of Mac OS, Windows, and Android.

Technology@lemmy.world•Bose open-sources its SoundTouch home theater smart speakers ahead of end-of-lifeEnglish
8·12 days agoIs there any quality, real open-source speakers? Or it’s way better not bother with it and get dumb speakers and an SBC?

52·12 days agoThat is not a spectrum of open source. They are all open source, as in you can access the source code without restriction. These licenses just limit what you can do with the source code.

5·12 days agoSo much bloat. So many boilerplates. Just
package main

It also has an 8-bit NES version.
Because executives only need the application work on the PPT-level, and make it in two days. Modern software engineering is dead.
BSDs are mostly for servers. For personal, “home and office” use the best BSD in regard of hardware support and userbase is FreeBSD.
If you have limited time, please consider buying the BSD (FreeBSD, OpenBSD, NetBSD, DragonflyBSD, MidnightBSD etc.) a coffee once in a while, in order to really wake up some day and see the news of the year of BSD.
Git gud, pal.
Base 1 is “base 0”.
0 is expressed as .
1 is 0.
2 is 00, and so on.

Linux@programming.dev•Really useful vim tricks you've probably never seen - Bread on Penguins
7·28 days agoExactly. Saw a thumbnail of a video on YouTube the other day: “ls -l >(cat)” (something to that effect) accompanied by something like “Insane Bash tricks you never know!” I never clicked on that video. The command looked intrigued, but I don’t want to spend ten minutes watching a video to know that.
Edit: It looks like it’s the same person.
OK, apologies, I’ll stop taking weird.
The developer is only supposed to share his code. It’s the distro’s responsibility to provide binary build of famous programs so that most users don’t have to compile. When they don’t, it’s inevitable that individual users have to build it themselves. This has been the norm for decades.




Fortunate for me, Posteo is a pair service so that their employees can live a good life by working. I get their service. I pay. I don’t like someone else paying for me then show me ads or sell my data.
