I created a simple Bash script that will always disable the default/internal monitor on your laptop when using AR glasses (or any other external monitor). I find this useful for when using AR glasses such as the XReal One which allows you to change the mode from regular mode to ultra-wide mode and when doing this, it will act as your unplugging the XReal ones and plugging in XReal one again in a new mode, causing the interal laptop display to become enabled.

To keep the laptop display always off, weather the laptop lid is either closed or open, this simple bash script will always disable the laptop screen every X seconds (You can change it by changing the wait variable)

Simply copy this script and create a new bash script such as disable-display.sh, make the script file executable and add it to your startup applications and it will run in the background. You will need to run xrandr command with all of your displays enabled to get the names of the displays and change the variable names in the script accordingly.

NOTE: This script may not work with a full Wayland setup and may only work on X11.

Enjoy

#!/bin/bash

#RUN xrandr TO GET THE NAMES OF THE DISPLAYS AND SET THE VARIABLES TO THESE NAMES

readonly default_display="eDP"
readonly external_display="USB-C-0"

readonly wait=5

while true; do
    #Check if there is an external display connected
    if xrandr | grep -q "$external_display connected"; then
        #Disable the internal display
        xrandr --output $default_display --off
    fi

    sleep $wait
done

I would like to share a bash script I made for when you want to simply run a rust script once and delete it. Instead of having compile the script with rustc, running the binary and then deleting the binary, you can achive all of this with this bash script below.

The first argument will be the rust script file name. The .rs file extension is optional. The rest of the arguments are passed into the executed binary.

Simply name the bash script to something like rust-run.sh.

#!/bin/bash

#Get file path from first parameter
path=$(dirname "$1")

#Get file name from first parameter
fileName=$(basename "$1")
fileName="${fileName%'.rs'}"

#Compile executable and save it in the same directory as the rust script
rustc "${path}/${fileName}.rs" -o "${path}/${fileName}"

#If rustc commands retuned any errors, unable to compile the rust script
if [ $? -ne 0 ]; then
    return
fi

#Execute compilled executable and pass the rest of the parameters into the executable
"${path}/${fileName}" ${*:2}

#Delete compillled executable
rm "${path}/${fileName}"

If someone wants to rewrite this in rust or add these features into the rustc, feel free to do so.

Just started learning Rust today and got Rust installed, got the hello world example compiled and running. I installed rust-analyzer and CodeLLDB extensions in VSCode. Enable the debug.allowBreakpointsEverywhere settings to VSCode to be true. Setup a debug configuration in VSCode.

However I keep getting errors from rust-analyzer when I run the debugger...

2024-10-06T22:16:04.808655Z ERROR FetchWorkspaceError: rust-analyzer failed to load workspace: Failed to load the project at /home/john/Documents/Snippets/Rust/Cargo.toml: Failed to read Cargo metadata from Cargo.toml file /home/john/Documents/Snippets/Rust/Cargo.toml, Some(Version { major: 1, minor: 81, patch: 0 }): Failed to run `cd "/home/john/Documents/Snippets/Rust" && RUSTUP_TOOLCHAIN="/home/john/.rustup/toolchains/stable-x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu" "/home/john/.cargo/bin/cargo" "metadata" "--format-version" "1" "--manifest-path" "/home/john/Documents/Snippets/Rust/Cargo.toml" "--filter-platform" "x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu"`: `cargo metadata` exited with an error: error: failed to parse manifest at `/home/john/Documents/Snippets/Rust/Cargo.toml`

Caused by:
  no targets specified in the manifest
  either src/lib.rs, src/main.rs, a [lib] section, or [[bin]] section must be present

I not sure how to fix this.

I would like to get the VSCode debugger to work for launch debugging, attach debugging and launch and attach debugging for rust running inside a docker container. This will be a good setup for getting started I believe.

This is my VSCode debugger configuration...

{
	// Use IntelliSense to learn about possible attributes.
	// Hover to view descriptions of existing attributes.
	// For more information, visit: https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=830387
	"version": "0.2.0",

			"request": "launch",
			"name": "Debug",
			"program": "${workspaceFolder}/hello-world",
			"args": [],
			"cwd": "${workspaceFolder}"
		}
	]
}

Any help and advice will be most appreciated.

I hope this project gets more contributors to help make it as good or better than Newpipe. Written in Dart using Flutter can allow it to be compiled for Android, iOS and desktop

Upvote the issue on Github if you want to see this feature added into VSCode.

I was able to setup a debugger using a launch mode using Visual Studio Code with the Bash Debug extension. Is it possible to setup the debugger in VSCode to be able to debug a bash script using a attach debug mode?

For debugging scripts on the host machine and scripts inside a docker container?

When I use the --sourcemap argument in the CLI to generate the CSS builds with sourcemaps, when the CSS uses @include, it does not update the path and therefore will not work.

In the code below, the builds are stored in the dist directory, while the CSS source code is stored in the src directory.

This is my simple code to reproduce this...

- src/
   - stylesheet.css
- dist
   - my-package.css
   - my-package.css.map
- demo.html
- bundle.css
- package.json

bundle.css

@import 'src/stylesheet.css';

demo.html

<link rel="stylesheet" href="dist/my-package.css">

package.json

{
  "name": "my-package",
  "version": "1.0.0",
  "license": "MIT",
  "scripts": {
   "build": "lightningcss --sourcemap bundle.css -o dist/my-package.css"
  },
  "devDependencies": {
    "lightningcss-cli": "^1.25.1"
  }
}

src/stylesheet.css

body {
	background-color: red;
}

dist/my-package.css output

@import "src/stylesheet.css";

/*# sourceMappingURL=dist/my-package.css.map */

What I expected from the dist/my-package.css output

@import "../src/stylesheet.css";

/*# sourceMappingURL=dist/my-package.css.map */

Does anyone know why this is the outcome? Any help will be most appreciated.

Here is how you can add a simple action to open a folder in VSCodium within Nemo file manager.

1. Create a new file in ~/.local/share/nemo/actions/ and name the file vscodium.nemo_action
2. Open the file in a text editor
3. Copy the code below into the file

[Nemo Action]
Name=Open in VSCodium
Comment=Open VSCodium in the selected folder
Exec=codium %F
Icon-Name=vscodium
Selection=Any
Extensions=dir;

4. Save the changes made to the file
5. Now when you right click inside a folder in Nemo, it will show an option "Open in VSCodium" and when you click this option, it will launch VSCodium using the currently directory as the workspace.

This can be modified to work with Visual Studio Code (Which is closed source unlike VSCodium) by editing codium %F to code %F

AgoraDesk/LocalMonero is shutting down 😞

Their app is fully open source and is a slick app written in Flutter.

Upvote this request on their github if you show interest in AgoraDesk/LocalMonero in releasing all of their source code for the back end as well. It is a long shot but if AgoraDesk/LocalMonero is going to shutdown, maybe they will release their source code to allow someone else to launch a new P2P trading platform that is a fork of AgoraDesk/LocalMonero and can do so with less work.
