Snow is coming for us next week finally after a balmy winter. Had to swap on the snow wheels and tires in preparation. Thankfully these 20” wheels from a Q series will clear those carbon ceramic brakes. #RS7
I tried an electron-based container app today which integrates a terminal.
Opening one terminal and running btop for a few seconds got me 522mb of memory usage across three processes, with very little shared memory between them.
VTE with 10 tabs, 10k lines of full scrollback, all those GPU shaders, rendered svgs, etc was ony 58 after subtracting shared pages.
If you need 522mb to open a terminal to do literally anything on your own system, you're already f'd.
#GTK#LibAdwaita App for creating barcodes is getting more and more real. Because #GnomeBuilder allows building even for aarch64, I've been able to test it on my OnePlus6.
For completion's sake, here's my older tile experiment in the new format. Man I've almost forgotten how the whole deal works again. Gotta do some more tilesets soon.
@nekohayo I don't even care how it's implemented so long as I don't see it when refreshing my mail client. That's generally fine with sub-folders and disabling synchronization on IMAP.
@nekohayo The low-tech way to do this would be to have sieve move all my gitlab/list/etc traffic into a staging directory, then a script which moves it into my Maildir's INBOX on some schedule.
Some days, I just wish I had my own mailserver as a library.
@nekohayo Since you can't trust everyone around the world to know when you're on vacation and file bugs at a different time, and since gitlab won't give us vacation control mechanisms, it seems prudent to just take care of it ourselves.
Generally it's my phone I want things disabled. And yes, indicators are terrible for me on all platforms.
You would have thought that after switching distros as well as operating systems so much in our teenage years we would have learned that it was the computer itself we didn't like.
The patched version of #Mutter + #GNOME Shell I've been running for the last few days, while profiling with @YaLTeR, is crazy fast.
This is the first time in 13 years that my GNOME Shell isn't slowing down after a few hours/days. Even without triple-buffering.
It is so smooth, I can't stop moving windows around just to savor how unreal it feels. Turns out I never experienced 60 fps (with & without #Wayland) in GNOME in my life, until this week.
@nekohayo@YaLTeR@alatiera There are certainly different classes of issues. But if you can tighten up a lot of code to use fewer CPU cycles across the system, there are generally energy savings to be had.
Does anyone have any reliable information on when we might see a Mac Mini with M3? All I can find are outdated articles based on rumours from August. 😅
I've been wanting to get a Mini on Black Friday, but I would probably hate myself if an M3 version came out a month or two after. 😅
@amxmln If your goal is to run Linux on it, I'd hold out a bit anyway. M3 GPU will require a bunch of new stuff different than M1/M2 and on top of that I don't think HDMI output is supported yet outside of m1n1, except with something like simpledrm (so no acceleration).
So in this case, I'd just find a good M2 laptop you like.
