Yeah don't worry about it too much. Ensure you have the correct name when installing your library but that's about all you can do personally.

Any other solution will have some security flaws. NPM has a few more than it should but essentially the entire web is built around it. Sorry man, you don't have any other choices.

How to use it properly? Any npm tutorial will show you quickly. Always check you've got the right thing, always check the library is large enough that if something goes wrong it'll be noticed, and know there's no way to be completely safe without never using libraries.

If you're learning the web though there's no way to avoid npm.

My father has the ability to make shirts with his cricut, and seperatly a sublimation printer.

What I'm saying is that I'll soon be the first, and only, owner of a pirated Lemmy t-shirt.

Nah I'll admit it, I was entirely wrong in thinking Biden should stay in the race. Though I could say I was worried another person than kamala would take their place I had essentially no faith in her ability at the time either.

Now look at where we are. Finally, some good fucking hopium. I'm very glad to be wrong

Edit: these suggestions are last resort type stuff tbf, hope the guys in the other thread are more help. Looks like someone suggested session restore w/ kde which makes alot of sense.

Ok that's increadibly weird. Here's some places I'd look.

I'd start looking in environment files such as ~/.bash_profile, .~/.profile, /etc/environment, /etc/profile and a few others. Maybe there's a call to the application in one of these files?

Secondly, I'd attempt to write a bash script to walk a directory tree, cat out files, pipe it through grep and get every instance where VirtualBox is mentioned in a file. Trying the name of proccess, or of the executable too.

I have a snippet that may help, by replacing that bash script:
grep -Rinw '~/path/to/start/' -e 'VirtualBoxOrSmthngElse'

Head there to see how to try and wittle down the matches. I'd start in a etc, ignore binary files with grep, and try everywere systematically

This is likely overkill lol. If you're on xorg maybe there's something in the file xorg uses for init? Can't remember the name personally but I used it to start up some processes before on system boot quite a while ago

Oh shit I see. I think the joke is that you only get some of the security updates if you pay for ubuntu pro. Ransom as in "Be a shame if you were insecure there little buddy, we can help with that. For a price"

Yeah I don't know enough about that personally to make a judgment

You do make some good points on it being terminalside, you've partially changed my mind there. I see the value now.

Also, you would be correct anything that allowed collapsing commands would be trivial to implement some sort of action per command and it's output. Along with collapsing being easiest to do terminalside.

What I would love to see is a terminal that builds it's own shell from scratch too rejecting the ancient ideas we have with bash. I still love bash but I'm curious what could come of it.

As for their luddite status their reply to my previous comment seems to show them to be a bit more open

Seriously though thanks for the good conversation and thought excersize

Konsole can display images, as can kitty, alacritty, western, iterm2, etc. There's quite a few formats to do so dating back decades. This isn't new.

As for collapsing a command and it's output that's nice, but it's not exactly game changing.

Lastly, searching explicitly your last command for a term with context would be much better suited to the shell to solve as it'd be terminal independent. Wouldn't surprise me if under the hood it's a bash script that takes whatever input you pass to bash, execs it, pipes stdout to tee, which passes it to a text file storing output and the console's output too. Of course, you can always pipe it to fzf for a live grep with context if you have it set up right and remember to do so

I would agree just denying any advancements in favor of the "good ole way" is idiotic but nothing I've seen or that you've listed convinces me these are major advancements. Nor are these anything that couldn't be solved at the shells level or with supplementary applications. Nice to have, if it weren't electron or closed I would switch, but nothing groundbreaking

I doubt they're outright rejecting any idea of progress. They're likely just not convinced by what the fancy options offer

Hell yeah, now that it finally works with Wayland on nvidia with explicit sync being added to the 555 drivers it's been great for me

This recent work of yours I've seen with colour has been amazing. Always liked your general style, but these just have some oomph to them.

Ignoring that I particularly like the cloth texturing. The entire thing really comes to life

Don't worry guys, the judge offered to be that girl's mentor. Asked her parents and all, so he sees no problem with this usage of power. You can absolutely trust him to be alone with a child and "teach her right"

Created a while ago from a DnD session where the PC's were stalking a leonin man meeting some friends in a shifty alley, beside a bar using krita along with it's perspective tools. Using Muses brush pack, I'll send a link if requested. Very nice pencil and charcoal brushes.

The concept

A streamed reading club focused on rusts The Book and becoming reasonably good rust developers through community collaboration. If you're interested, please comment so we know this's something you'd like to join in on.

A Begining

To begin, I'll be setting up a twitch stream where we read through the book together and solve some problems together related to the concepts provided. We'll be able to collaborate in chat, and talk about it here after each stream. This way, we'll be able to lean on each other or just hang out while we learn the language Lemmy uses for it's backend. Other hosts will be welcome as the end goal is to create a group of people whose goal is to support our collective growth as developers

Anybodies welcome of any skill set, whether or not they want to continue on once we get to lemmys code base. If you're completely new to rust this is a great place to start and if you already know the language we'd love to have you all the more. At the very least it's a good networking opportunity but you'll likely learn more than you thought.

Timing

Please comment your availability so we can find the best time and day to do this. As a stand-in and default though, 6:30pm EST (New York Time) on tuesday will be the start time. I'd be available on most days myself after 5pm Eastern Time (new york) though so don't hesitate to suggest another time/date.

Where?

For now, I'll be streaming this on a twitch channel I created a bit ago but never used. The link is here: https://www.twitch.tv/deerfromsmoke

Thank you @morrowind@lemmy.ml for the idea.

I've been trying for a bit to get together a group or find one to join here with no success. I've posted in two communities here on lemmy, replied to a few peoples posts, and each time it seems that I and the others don't get enough people together to start a game.

My question is towards others experiance in the fediverse with getting together a group as a DM or a player.

Have you been able to do so?

If so, what's your experiance been? Where did you find success?

Is mastadon or another service a better place to look?

Any experiance or story is appreciated.

Alternatively, if you've been looking yourself and have had the same experiance, I'd love to have you at my table. I am in the EST timezone though

Michael Jackson was apparently removed from CS2. This is a sad day

157

It is 5 am, I have not slept tonight, but what I have done makes me very happy.

It was too easy and took no coding. Even though I'm a professional programmer I was not excited to learn qt and hate c++ with a passion. I did not need to. Seriously, it is my belief that anyone could have done this if they really wanted to

The Problem

I've not been able to find a theme which lets me have small floating panels and a nice brownish colour profile. All the brown themes I've liked have a massive border radius in the floating panels, and thus my two panel layout takes up an absurd amount of space. 64 pixels in total, though it seems a bit larger to me. Maybe that doesn't account for the bottom empty space.

Fixing It

I knew at this point I'd have to learn a bit about plasma theming in order to get what I wanted, and had been procrastinating for about a month. Tonight, I could not sleep, so around 2 I decided to try it out. I started online and found nothing on my specific problem, with people suggesting I just "try another theme". Perhaps I was googling wrong, but no useful information there. went back in to the settings though and found the edit button on the plasma theme section. Right there were all the SVGs needed to alter the theme and a nice button to get to the directory where it was all housed.

I searched up panel, found three images, and tried something incredibly dumb. I just yeeted them into inkscape, made the borders on each image smaller, and changed my theme away and back. Fantastic, now the corners are smaller and I can shrink my panels to a reasonable size. It took about 15 minutes in total. To be fair, each corner was it's own path and I had to do this 4 times and be cautious of some shadowing but I seriously think anyone could have gotten this done. Fuck man, the theme I'm using is distributed under the GPL. That's place is wild.

Conclusion

Plasma is built for people who want to change their experience and I love the devs for that. At this point I'd be surprised if I found something I couldn't do. If you're curious, here's the finished product. It'll take some more work with a colour picker to get the sliders the right way but for now this is fantastic

Zeioth has created a fantastic plugin for those of you looking to make Neovim more like an IDE. Run the open command, tell it to build, have it compile, execute, and output your code in a really nice looking way all inside neovim.

It's still pretty early but this is looking promising. It's already very customizable with support for a few languages, with more in the works.

Give it a look: https://github.com/Zeioth/Compiler.nvim
