I've never set a foot in Berlin (yet!) but many of my friends are Berliners, and I'm seeing a lot of events I would like to attend there.

Berlin looks like a very attractive city with a healthy culture. With sleeper trains back in service between Paris and Berlin, I'll have to visit more often!

@thibaultamartin Berlin is a beautiful city…

… that’s located in Germany.

    Upside of being my child is that when you're home from school sick, I work from home anyway so I can keep you company while you rest on the sofa. Downside is that sometimes I will put an experimental math-rock/jazz album on. https://strobesband.bandcamp.com/album/brokespeak

    I really need to automate this somehow, but my latest estimate is 3.13 million active users of Flathub!

    This is a number of updates delivered to a popular dependency, org.freedesktop.Platform.GL.default//23.08, between the 23.08.14 and 23.08.15 releases. This was less than a month window (March 18 through April 9).

    Pretty impressive stuff!

    Edit: updated, more realistic stats based on @alatiera; thanks!

    What if "software repair" was a system feature?

    Every app comes with its source and flatpak manifest, and there's a "Repair" button in the window context menu that opens it in Builder.

    When you're done with your repair it's easy to set a different name/icon (so it shows up as a separate app in the system), install it locally, or share it as a flatpak bundle.

    alatiera,
    @alatiera@mastodon.social avatar

    @tbernard Endless was doing that for a while with a button that would flip the app and open Builder.

    Also "Repair" implies corruption, which should both never happen and get fixed automatically when it's detected.

    Finally landed a bunch of changes in JSON-GLib that I've been working off and on for the past three months, mainly dealing with proper JSON conformance.

    Had to undo a lot of generic/extensible code in the tokeniser I lifted out of GLib, in order to get to a decent state; I've also added a whole conformance test suite to ensure that we don't deviate (too much) from RFC8259.

    Can't wait to see bugs getting filed because the parser got stricter.

    one thing I learned from porting firefox away from a 10 year old deprecated GTK API, is that there are real people with setups worse than chatgpt could ever hallucinate about and a gazillion regressions for otherwise fixed problems.

    Like this thing works fine on Cent OS 7, but not a the custom gentoo install with no cursor themes at all or Xcursros even.

    Or for the other 5 people still using a bitmap cursor theme that was last updated 19 years ago.

    I finally figured out how to fix the bluetooth stack on linux and it's pretty simple.

    We just need to find an excuse to make systemd-bleutoothd.

    Something like creating an OTP token on the computer and attesting the state with a separate device over the system over bluetooth or similar excuse.
