@s_bergmann I think there are already way too many surfaces that have been saturated with that sort of thing to want to also put it directly into the terminal
With SaveDesktop you can save your current configuration (themes, icons, wallpapers, all desktop environment settings, extensions, Flatpak, etc.) on a USB key or external disk, then import it after a clean install 🙂
Are there any useful learning resources out there that are essentially "build systems for dummies"?
I haven't built any complex projects from source manually so far (spoiled by meson + GNOME Builder's Flatpak integration), but I'm finding myself wanting a better understanding of what's actually happening under the hood to turn the stuff in my project folder into something runnable. I don't know much about tweaking meson.build files, for instance.
If anyone wants to or knows someone who wants to hack on a PineNote, let me know. I’m willing to send it to an eager developer for the cost of shipping. It’s unclear where the project is heading, but it seems some people are trying to run Debian and #GNOME. There’s an effort to get mainline #Linux kernel support in for it. I just don’t have the patience and time to contribute.
I’ve already left a message in the Pine Discord offering the same.
If you are curious and courageous, and run #Debian testing or unstable, you might like to try the latest snapshot of #Gajim by @gajim. It features message replies and message reactions.
Expect bugs! This is not a release version, but a snapshot. It's called "experimental" for a reason.
echo "deb https://deb.debian.org/debian/ experimental main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/experimental.list
ohh, yeah, now I understand; but ignore that, that's a very specific case where somebody is quite a bit overeager while at the same time missing the right tactfulness quite a few times.
@hroncok@brnohat Not many people, but it was the best release party in a log time, interesting talks and even more interesting discussions. Normally we're done with the talk section in 1.5-2 hours, this time it took 4 hours and it was never boring.
