@dancinyogi driven both (from Germany). Driving stick is essentially getting a feel for the clutch. Let it come gently and increase gas at the same time ( when starting in gear 1) and then gently release it. Switch often. Diesel cars should switch to a higher gear at ~ 2000 rpm, gas cars earlier. If you're driving up a hill you often need to switch down to maintain speed /accelerate. It just boils down to lots of practice and getting a feel of when to switch up/down

Now uploaded to the #Debian new queue pending reviewm

@drewdevault @larsmb that's with I use openRC. Unfortunately sometimes systemd breaks stuff regardless of other inits

More attacks by Israel on journalists, I hope they are made to pay for all their war crimes. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uFTrZbP-KTQ

So #Snapshot, the new camera app for #GNOME, builds and runs on #Debian too (fully offline !). Still need to teak a few rough edges packaging-wise and I can't test it yet. For now I'll focus on my studies.

That warm feeling when you've discovered some really unknown band that really slaps.

@ah well afaik only one ftpmaster processes uploads atm, so that might take time

#Loupe running as native app under debian: check. Coming soon...

@kathenas turns out I had a broken tarball for some reason, works fine with more sleep to tackle it

@dangillmor @natematias I self-hosted #Nextcloud few years back because I didn't trust those big companies with my own data. Afaik you can also rent/buy a Nextcloud instance which is hosted somewhere (Hetzner iirc?)

I think I ran into a bug where uscan fails to repack huge tarballs when the compression is set to xz. Works fine with gz. I'll debug and file a proper bugreport tomorrow.

@decathorpe ah, interesting. It's also often us "fighting" to get the test suite at least working somewhat with patching, and not really rewarding. Upside is I learned more in doing so

@decathorpe yeah, the long times on the debian side come from running autopkgtests for libraries which compile every feature on its own (and all enabled) and the run cargo test. This can take very long for packages with a lot of features ( say glib or uom).

@anarchiv planned obsolescence is real. I got a GDR-made mixer from my Grandma and it still works ™

@decathorpe right. That is somewhat a gripe I have with rust: long compiletimes and static linking. I hope this improves

@decathorpe building rust-uom be like that (:
I can only run that on my really beefy machine.

Did some small reviewing of the Rust teams' MR queue today. Mostly small nitpicks, but important nevertheless to show contributors that their work isn't ignored.

Harvested some potatoes out of their pots today. They were partially frozen, but are still edible.
