Tbh these scripts are for my personal use, written in the way that makes sense for me. I only open sourced it as a joke an as an example of how reinventing your own wheel is not that hard sometimes, and comes with the benefit of doing just what you need it to do.

Actually I was thinking of adding a sysget fallback, as I might need to do some debian/fedora hacking soon.

Makes sense and you’re probably right, but I’ll tell you why I didn’t do it that way:

  1. I just did what came first to me
  2. I like the idea of the API defining the project structure
  3. When adding a new package manager, if that ever happens, I would like to see all other implementation of the same functionality on the same file, for help and inspiration
sebastiancarlos,

It should be pretty soon. I’ve got it working already, but I need to test it more and figure out how Firefox profiles work with Playwright.

If you want you can just clone it and replace “chromium” with “firefox”. It should just work, and it shouldn’t take too long to figure out the rest.

sebastiancarlos,

Will do, bossman

sebastiancarlos,

I got you, boss man. Enjoy the raw speed

sebastiancarlos,

Hey, I really appreciate that. I’m glad you find it useful.

sebastiancarlos,

Point taken, but Big Tech systematically does equally bad things while disguising them behind DevRel, so I think it’s justified to poke fun at that.

sebastiancarlos,

The joke is that it’s hard to tell if this is a joke because the lines between good intentions, corporate jargon, and feasibility have been blurred beyond recognition both here and in the real world.

It’s also funny that after all these years, i18n is still a mess. Moreover, even if translations are standard in GUIs and documentation, for some reason, everyone is okay with defaulting to English for the oldest form of computer interaction.

Also, the joke is whatever you want it to be. Follow your dreams.

sebastiancarlos,

Just curious, what would be a correct translation?

sebastiancarlos,

Cool, thanks! Look like there are things like xrandr for Wayland with this functionality. the burn-in is not so bad right now but I’ll keep this in mind.
