The best one-man distro ever made!
Lookin fer a new #distro but don't wanna choose between #KDE, #GNOME, or some obscure #WM the arch kids are into this week? Maybe you've heard some old greybeards grumblin about #enlightenment but figured it was just some hippy thing. What if there was an easy way to get yer hands on the tried and true, real enlightenment window manager, #e16, without all that configuratin bidniss? If yer lookin for a well polished #debian with a UI your friends prolly don't have, maybe take this Elive thing nobody's talkin bout fer a spin.
Much like any good magic trick, the more you know about what's been tweaked and streamlined behind the scenes, the more you can appreciate all that's gone into the making of this distro. This has been a one-man project from before the time I learned of it sometime early 2005 in the #e channel on freenode. Much though and dedication has gone into the design of each release since then.
Go check it out, it's free if you don't wanna help with production.

if by any chance you're keen to learn in the future, having a wallpaper or desktop widget that's just your personal WM keybinds cheat-sheet helps! 😎
(You can also go old-school and have a print-out of the keybinds by your side, haha.)
Some WMs also come with a dedicated hotkey popup (and it updates itself as you change your keybindings!). One of the main reasons I love Awesome WM. 🙂

Interesting. I was just diving into the items table because I am creating a module that displays past items in a list and whether it has been seen or not. Similar to notifications, except it still shows items that you have already seen in a paginated list, similar to an inbox.
I didn't realize that block activities were sent out like that. That might make for some interesting display options for users.

Did a bit'a readin and thought #OrcaSlicer looked like it had a few nice improvements to #SuperSlicer. Their GitHub releases page had a file called OrcaSlicer_V1.6.4-beta2_Linux.zip
so I figured I give it a try. I was a bit concerned when I opened that zip and found it contained a file called OrcaSlicer_ubu64.AppImage
, but hey, it's an AppImage right, should be fine...nope. First run from cli just to see what it spits out and what'a'ye know, error while loading shared libraries: libwebkit2gtk-4.0.so.37
. A quick sifting through the AppImage contents and guess how many .so files it had in it; yup, not'a one.
What's the point of making an #AppImage / #Flatpak / #Snap if you're not gonna include the required libraries to run it?

It's free software, you can download and read the source code, use it, modify it or fork it if you like. You are also free to use something else if you prefer.

Yes, this is where Friendica truly shines. I actually had a screenshot of exactly how it looks like in Friendica if one of my contacts re-shares/re-toots one post. In the attached screenshot that action is by the green arrow (far down). Friendica then pulls in the thread of posts that belong together, and show them as a clustered thread in the regular flow (note that my setting for that is ”Latest Activity”, so one can chose a different view if one were to prefer that).

in reply to m@thias.hellqui.st • • •You forgot muting...
with muting you likewise garuntee you never see them again. But it has some differences
1) less rude since it doesnt limit their ability to interact with people on your posts
2) less disruptive to people on your posts because it doesnt orphan tons of past threads that people left (people you arent blocking so why would you want to)
3) is transparent to the other party so causes less drama and less chance of them trolling you from sock puppets
4) Doesnt game the social system, in other words, when you block you game the dialogue, so people who see your posts see a false reality, the conversations arent an honest representation of peoples opinions. By not blocking people dont get echo chamber effects where they get a false view of reality and thus start to view reality incorrect.

in reply to 🎓 Dr. Freemo :jpf: 🇳🇱 • • •@freemo Hehe, yeah, that is right. However what I was after was all the "oh, so you are welcoming such-and-such?" just because I haven't blocked such-and-such. I don't think they are the same thing.
But yes, muting and filtering (depending on what service people are on) can be great tools for chiseling out the stream of the day, which might be different tomorrow or in an hour.
