Actually good for the developer. He is doing it out of his passion and faith in OSS. What more should we want of him? The dude is already a hero.

 

Is there any way I can automatically bundle the compiled binary with the current version number as a git tag to github when I do cargo publish like stuff? Like qol thing?

Fellow bookworms, I am glad to announce that I am at the last book of Cosmere (Yumi and the Nightmare Painter). And then, I will have finished it all. So this is where I need your help. Recommend me some awesome Sci-fi and Fantasy books that you believe will blow away my mind, like the impact needs to be huge, cannot believe this happened type of stuff. Preferred genre are Sci-fi and Fantasy, but if you know some awesome book from other genre, don't hold back, all suggestions are welcome.

Thank you in advance.

UPDATE: Piranesi is currently on lead and I am almost finished with Yumi, so that is the next on my list. But don't let that stop the recommendations coming. Eventually all of us are going to run out of recommendations ;)

Why dude why? I had gone for 2 years. Why???

I run arch. I use vanilla arch (btw) it's the best. But that's because I am ready to put in the time. Not because it is inherently better.

Or... Hear me out... Might be controversial opinion but just try.

Don't fucking install arch based distros. Just install Mint or Fedora plasma and be done.

Zero fucking setup after install. The fedora workstation has so much pre installed and configured I cannot explain. Only gripe with fedora is the media codec bullshit because obviously AMERICAN CAPTALISM.

I have a RTX 3050 mobile with Intel cpu laptop. So far... Everything works fine on fedora and arch. I haven't installed Debian based on it however

Ohh... No issues. I tried it with the world map 16kx16k image and it worked. My i gpu couldn't handle it but my gpu did open it

I don't know why it souldn't. DM me the image so that I can test it

 

Tired of bloated image image viewers? Well, I was too and hence I created a dirt simple image viewer. Build from source or get it straight from AUR.

 

Want to switch between projects fast or too lazy to cd into the project directory? Now you directly do that from neovim.

Details on installation in README.

I didn't agree to train their AI though you know. If the data is unreliable, then get your own data. Why would I tell it to recognize a stop sign.

If they open source the model and the weights and allow me turn on my seat warmers on my own car without a subscription, then maybe... Just maybe some day I would help them. Till then, gtfo.

For any other use case, I would have recommended Rust, but for making a hobby game engine, I would advise not using either rust or Odin and instead use C and C++. The graphics drivers have a primary C Abi and you would spend a really long time debugging C to Odin/Rust translation layer bugs than actually working on he engine.

I would suggest write a C rendering library, wrap it in safe Rust and move on from there.

Happy birthday. Play bloodborne and demon souls on it.

That being controls almost 50% of the world's nuclear arsenal. That's why.

 

Hi, I just want to share / get some opinion.

I started using Linux 2 years back. I was dual booting back then and after a year switched to Linux completely.

I started out using Ubuntu, hated it, installed Manjaro after a week and when pacmac broke the thing within 2 months, I watched a bunch of YouTube videos, read the arch wiki and installed arch. Things were going great except for some Nvidia issues (I am using an Optimus laptop) but utt was running smoothly. Then decided that I want to build a game engine and the nvidia issues were significant. So I read somewhere that Fedora has great nvidia support and I installed it and everything worked. I installed Fedora 39, and it worked. When Fedora 40 came, I upgraded no issues, Fedora 41 came, no issues.

But just a few days back when I had vacation, I decided my system was getting bloated and I didn't manually want to uninstall apps, I decided let's format it. But I thought... Arch might take up less space on my disk(1 have a 512gb nvme, and t 2tb hdd, but I like to put things like games and projects I am working on, on the nvme). So I installed arch and loving the experience. I installed Nvidia-open drm drivers and it just works.

TLDR: Is it normal to distro hop after being using a distro perfectly for so long?

PS: I used archinstall because I didn't want through the lengthy process again. And archinstall works great.

 

I am the developer of a project with a small community known as Offflix. Now I recently discovered that Yts has an api, and it is too irresistible for me to integrate it into my project as a simple in app click to download any movie.

So, would doing that and making the code open source be illegal? I am not a US citizen and I am not technically ripping movies, I am just packaging yts's functionality inside my app. Would github flag and destroy me repo if I do this?

I was recently watching a tsoding stream when he was singing huge praises for the compilation mode in emacs, so I created a plug in to do essentially the same thing in neovim. Feel free to test it and share feedback.

I have many ebooks I have from scouring the Internet in two formats: epub and PDF. I want something server like that lets me drop read them from any device on my local network and remembers where I left the book on device and let's me continue on another. I want the client app to have android and Linux support while the server should run on linux. Is there anything out there? Bonus points if it autographs metadata from the internet and organises them by topics, authors, ddc etc.

TLDR: An ebook library running on a Linux server with Android and Linux client software.

Hello. I recently created a notification daemon which uses eww widgets for its front-end display. So if you are already using eww, give it a go.

I know this is a very niche use case, but if a single person finds it useful, I will be glad.

I created this project some years back and the project just reached v1.1.0. I know most people have jellyfin servers and all set up, but if you have just a local folder of all your series saved up, you can use this to remember what you were watching.

All feedback is welcome. You can also contribute to the project
