17->23 "-e merge" woes


It's always that fuckin qtwebengine merge that makes you question your choices. 😅


Silly as it may sound, you'll almost always get best results by photographing the print in raw on a camera you trust. If you must scan them on a flatbed though, I'd recommend using the tried-n-true #xsane, as it gives you the ability to adjust the image during scan/preview in far greater detail than many other scanner programs. It also gives you the option to use ICM/ICC Profiles.

We do have rather decent robot wheelchairs, and the fully automated baggage check is outstanding. Not all the public service robots here are as rood as the floor sweeper ones. 😆


nothing I have depends on it...


I wouldn't consider #e16 a DE (still count?); but using that, I prefer having a frame-only window decoration. I use a simple #xdotool line in my #conkyrc to display the currently focused window.

${exec 'xdotool getactivewindow getwindowname'}

I've also used a combination of xdotool, randr, and eesh in the past to do tiling and arrangement.


This is quite a common theme when you hear talk of #linux window managers. It seems to always be the same list of the same few, most of which are far less "easy" than advertised. Rarely do you see a mention of any #blackbox clone, and my favorite, e16, never even makes the long list.

I suspect it never makes the cut for #windowmanager reviews because of its lack of focus on #tiling. However, I believe #e16 is easily a formidable condender. It comes with very simple to read and configure keybind, menu, and window matching systems. The keybinds are in a single flat file, as are the menus which can also be called by filename for submenus. Because of the simplicity of just passing an executable, keybinds and menu items can do anything that can be done via command from a terminal. Unlike nearly all of the popular #WM flavours out there, e16 comes equipped with its own compositor, systray, and background manager. Best of all, its completely functional upon install without any preconfiguration needed.

Does only connected by corrosion count as missing? 😆

Seems to ""dial it back"" just fine for mouth-of-a-sailor syndrome. 😂


I've been carryin around the same #e16 configs for 20+ years. It's by far my favorite environment!

@bazkie bumpercar, this here is the only post in which I have tagged you. I explicitly tagged the person (Uilebheist) to who's comment I was replying, not you. Their post on which I was commenting was pulled into my feed because @Randy Resnick, with whom I am friends, had previously commented on it. However, because the post to which I replied, was itself a reply to a post of yours, you were automatically tagged as a result, not be me as you can see from the attached screenshot of that post on my end.

Uilebheist's claim of problems with their Mastodon experience is why I offered the advise of what resolved my issues with it and other fediverse interfaces. This is the reason I specifically addressed my comment to them, not you, nor anyone else. I apologize for inadvertently fouling your experience with the fediverse, it was in no way my intention.

It also gives you a delivery count of the distribution of each message you post.


I've really enjoyed exploring other servers via the one Friendica uses. It jumps you directly to that post on the poster's instance. It's really sad that Mastadon keeps things from it's users that most everyone else in the FediVerse has been enjoying for quite a while.


That rogue clone looks to me like a #DooM engine take on the old #NotEye that let me play #brogue in first person.

Honestly though, I never found it to be as fun as it sounded at the time.
