Wow, now there's a #BSoD feature being merged into systemd. One more reason to use #openRC

@decathorpe I mean there's a lot to choose from: hyper, isahc, ...

@decathorpe well most people probably use systemd-networking anyway (since it's the default :( ) I use NetworkManager and wpasupplicant since I know what it does. Network is something where native Rust might prove crucial in the future, but imho it's not there yet.

@9names yeah pretty much. Create the config file mentioned and install the libraries via apt, for instance syn version 2.x becomes librust-syn-dev. You might need to patch your Cargo.toml as we either are ahead or behind versionwise (sometimes). Like if you actually develop rust I wouldn't actually recommend it (unless you want to). If you have a spotty connection and want to develop even offline then it might be viable. Ymmv, though.

Yesterday I finished packaging rust-soup3 and rust-soup3-sys as those are needed for mousai. More to come ...

#Rust #Debian

@ema @MadMike77 @9names @hjvt @chuang
There was a blog post recently about that on planet.debian.org. You can create a .cargo/config file in you project root and then install all required crates as packages and tell cargo in said file to use those and build offline.

It's shocking how there's not more outrage against the killing of journalists in Gaza, in recent years, over 20 journalists have been murdered there, since October 7, another 50, and it's continuing at an unprecedented rate according to DM: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9hZh3grX_UI

So I just biked like half an hour at -1° to get a brandnew electric kettle cheap but it was so worth it. Currently enjoying a mug of hot-buttered rum and feeling at peace.

@alice sus ngl (nice nails seriously)

#Ghidra is great, I am just annoyed that it does not scale well on hidpi screens.

@Conan_Kudo @gwync @decathorpe well yeah. I already maintain quite a bit but it's all alongside my studies which is a lot of effort. I enjoy maintaining and I also learned a lot in the process. Nevertheless getting some money for it would be nice.

@decathorpe @Conan_Kudo @gwync heh, sometimes I wish I'd get paid. I really should look into giving people an option to support my work I guess

@ubuntuasahi @baarkerlounger yeah, that where they are.

My talk about packaging #Rust applications and libraries for #Debian I gave at #UbuntuSummit in Riga is online. Feel free to check it out here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cbqOcnMasPs

@jon sad state of affairs, yeah

@MikeDunnAuthor can really recommend the book "Gun Thugs, Rednecks and Radicals" for a ggod read about the West Virginia Coal Wars.

@highvoltage yeah. The only thing I'd miss is a) discovering new music and b) getting notifications about new releases.

@highvoltage I'm glad I never stopped collecting / importing CDs as you actually own the media. I'll delete my music streaming soon because I have most of my music offline anyway. And with kew (which I packaged ) playing it is really convenient.

Now is a great time to build up a physical CD collection while their cheap and readily available. Yesterday I got this Tracy Chapman disc, I've seen the cover art on my streaming service a few times. She looks really sad on the cover. But if you have the physical copy and open up the cover, she's happy on the inside!
Album cover of Tracy Chapman self-titled album. She looks sad on the album cover. Inside sleeve of album, it looks similar to the photo on the cover, but Tracy is smiling.
