@dotstdy @karolherbst hehe. xsnow is tricky iirc because you would need the compositor to implement the snow

@karolherbst still sad that xsnow does not work under sway

@wolf480pl right

@wolf480pl lots of cool stuff. You can build a VCO ( voltage controlled oscillator), a digital-analog converter, a sawtooth/rectangular-wave generator ...

@cstross @froztbyte fwiw, I use OpenRC (Alpines and Gentoos default init) and it's just nice. Supports sysvinit scripts but also its own (which are less cluttered imo) and is very lean. It's dependency based and does parallelization by default, too. For logging I just went with rsyslog.

@marathon looks interesting, thanks, but I prefer "stock" debian. I might try ironbar though

Trying sway and so far I had zero issues with it or "pure" wayland in general. Only #KiCad and #Ghidra need XWayland and it's all idling at smooth 600 Megs of RAM. I will switch the bar probably, waybar is a bit boring imo. It's a bit of a challenge having to script literally everything, but at the end of the day the machine does exactly what I want. Coupled with the (relative) stability of #Debian sid and #OpenRC as init this is a great experience overall. I might do a writeup later.

@wolf480pl @niconiconi "all digital electronic is comprised of analog components

@mawkler @signalapp sad. Even people I know that don't care that much about privacy know that Signal is used for anonymity and they usually are ok switching to it (even if it just for me)

@mawkler @signalapp the snowden quote about free speech and privacy

Railway was accepted into #Debian today ! Thanks to @awai for packaging most of its dependencies. This #GTK - #Rust app allows queuing travel information, for instance from #DB .

tmw you want to run a sysvinit service but the init script is just broken :/ guess I need to add this to the ever-growing todolist

@foone ok, thanks

@foone did you ever manage to reverse engineer the TP link TL-SG105? I found your FW dump and want to dig in now.
Seems like the UI is plain html + svg /jpg files. The data before that is probably the actual OS (unless I'm mistaken)

@Zugschlus vllt "kennt" discover nur pakete mit appstream support?

I used to love this song as a child, and the older I get the more I learned about the stuff they're singing about. https://youtu.be/eFTLKWw542g?si=RjZxkfiOs72REBuq

tmw all ICEs are delayed for 30 mins :m
But I get home earlier (:

hm, pondering to risk an earlier departure with even more stacked ICE trains. But I guess it won't matter anyway today

@neil vim is great, even more with some plugins to extend functionality. I can recommend vim-gruvbox, vim-rainbow and vim-autopair (Debian packages). I don't judge people though, everyone should use what they prefer.
