Very happy and proud of this collaboration between @codethink @gnome and @sovtechfund

https://www.codethink.co.uk/articles/2024/GNOME-OS-systemd-sysupdate/

Our goal is to make GNOME OS a daily driver for QA and finalize the migration, but this work will be fundamental to the future of all secure image based / immutable Linux distributions.

Anyone willing to take screenshots of #itch from #flathub on #gnome ?

I am trying to conform to the new App Listing Guidelines, but I learned that well... I do not have the most appropriate of itch collections.

If you can, I need a screenshot of the following:

1. Opening the app with an account previously logged in.
2. A screenshot of your library.
3. A screenshot of your collections.
4. A screenshot of your creations (does anyone have one??)
5. A screenshot of downloads (have something downloading)
6. A screenshot of the settings.

There are many things about git submodules that are more unpleasant than they should be but one of the most frustrating is that you have to decide early whether to add the submodules as git+ssh URLs or https urls. If you pick ssh URLs, your Windows users using GUIs will not be able to check out the submodules. Whereas if you pick https URLs, your Mac and Linux users using the command line will not be able to check out the submodules. Once you have picked one of these choices, you can't change it

I was looking into adding a “simple” feature to a core GNOME app and backed away slowly as I realized how seemingly overcomplicated the codebase is. 😬

It’s probably mostly due to me being unfamiliar with both the codebase and the language bindings, but it makes me feel sad. I thought it would be a pretty simple addition… but I’m in no place to rewrite the app, either. 😝

My first apps pushing real memory requirements, "hundreds of KB to MB", were on Unix systems. The second was Windows 95. The peculiarities of PC memory issues were just running config tools to get Tie Fighter running. Seeing it spelled out so painfully makes me glad I missed all that. #history #ComputerHistory #programming #RetroComputing

On another day of cursed #Linux stories

#avahi has been burning at least a cities worth of power for over 6 years, from every single Linux distro because it does not wait between network checks.

https://github.com/avahi/avahi/issues/210

I discovered this today while looking at my idle system usage for the battery drainer.

https://github.com/avahi/avahi/issues/557

A second of strace logs leads to a 2 MB file on my system, and its just thousands of the same checks over and over.

This was already FIXED.

https://github.com/avahi/avahi/pull/366

Since 2022. And the maintainers just never made an 0.8.1 release.

How to be evil.

1. Find an #MIT licensed software.
2. Distribute via Software as a Service #SAAS , Charge money for it.
3. Proxy all bug reports to the original developers. (you can make fixes, just do not upstream them)
4. Create new features, never upstream them. (you can deal with the bug reports for these)
5. Use revenue from step 2 to out advertise the original software, and fund step 2 & 4.
6. Repeat Step 2-5 until original project is dead.
7. Shutter business as profit margins decrease.

The Fediverse is turning 16 in 2 days.

This is fucking nuts, if you ask me.

Healthy amount of leftovers for the upcoming cons, wouldn't you say?

You know why I like @forgejo so much? I just did a "fly-by" patch on the documentation because I was annoyed with how complicated that one page was written. So I forked the repo, cleaned up that page and submitted a Pull Request. And guess what? No discussions, no back and forth, it just got merged! Now THAT is how you attract new contributors to your Open Source project. Thank you! My first contribution!

Alright #Rust developers, why does using a "?" not cause a move error on line 14, but "unwrap" does?

Edit: Solution is to use "let Some(location) = location" in the if statement, which functions like a match statement without the bulk.

This is the oldest trick in the book holy moly.
