Shout out to Text Pieces! I needed to URL-encode a big ugly string (creating a template form from URL parameters, yay!) and yep, sure enough, it made it stupidly easy.
The next time you need to encode, transform, or convert some text on Linux, reach for this pretty little offline app instead of pasting your data into some random website. 👍
ollama's becoming just an every day tool. First via the Alpaca #flatpak for chat, but also via charm.sh's mods tool, which lets you pipe commands, etc into a model. Here I'm using codestral to explain my status back to me. Neato! 😀
#Flatpak also has no way of marking packages as ‘permitted by OG maintainers (OGM)’ without setting a false assumption that the package comes from the OGM. So you either mislead users that the package is officially from OGM where it isn't which harms OGM when they provide support for the software, but only official distributions, or you keep it ‘unverified’, making it inaccessible on distributions like #LinuxMint now
Sorry für weiteres #NixOS Simping, aber man kann sogar #Flatpak den Nix Way installieren. Einfach geil. :owi:
Wie kommt es, dass NixOS nischiger ist, als #ArchLinux oder #Gentoo? Das ist der beste Weg eine #Linux Distro zu konfigurieren, den ich je gesehen habe. Ich wünschte, ich hätte es früher gekannt. Von NixOS habe ich das erste Mal vielleicht von vor ein paar Monaten oder so gehört.
So we all know snaps on ubuntu are dodgy (thanks canonical) but to be honest #flatpak is no better. Faux containerized 'sandboxed' apps with all dependencies is a waste of hdd space! I will take an #appimage or #deb file over flatpak every time.
Maybe I am old school, or maybe I just like my hdd space for other stuff, not duplicate dependencies!
Need your online messages to stand out? Need to really emphasise a specific word or phrase? Calligraphy can generate ASCII banners that impress. Input your text, sort through a catalogue of many distinct and varied typefaces, then pick the one that best emphasises your message. Next, just let the app copy it for you and paste it wherever you can write text!
I think that #systemd should do package management. I hate when I have to install some software, but it only has a .deb package. I think that a unified packaging format for Linux would be good.
#Flatpak takes a lot of space and doesn't work well with CLI software. #Snap relies on a closed backend and is not very fast.
OC [Solved] I am unable to install flatpaks as user.
What am I doing wrong?
