The Arch Wiki gives good tips on what environment variables to set to make sure that your GUIs are running with Wayland native and not XWayland. I have a Framework and I don’t have any blurry text issues, and I’ve done all the settings in this section.

In simple terms, it’s like a VM for an application. You set it up with the right dependencies and your application will “just work” on it, without having to deal with other applications existing alongside it.

What makes it better than a VM is that it is much faster. It interfaces with kernel features that help isolate the processes and files from the rest of the system. It is not virtualization, rather it is namespacing.

Docker also provides a bunch of tools that help with creating this environment automatically and allowing for some escaping into the host, such as binding ports and sharing data with the host’s file system.

Once this environment is created, it can be shared with uses as a single downloadable bundle, called an image. This makes it really easy to download and run an application without having to prepare your system with the right dependencies and files.

Nothing is free though, and the cost here is more disk space and some performance overhead, although it is close to native speed.

I mean at this point, people use that phrase themselves, so I don’t think it really makes fun of them anymore.

I use EndeavorOS, btw

It actually is possible to segfault in safe Rust, although it is considered a bug. Proofs of concept are shown in this cve-rs crate.

If you want an explanation of why this happens, I recommend this video: youtu.be/vfMpIsJwpjU

Any docker solution to control smart light bulb?

I own a couple TP-Link Tapo Wi-fi light bulbs. Currently, each family member installs an app on the phone to control the light bulbs. I wonder if there’s a way to do the same but in a browser (via docker app on my NAS). And because we may use smart devices of other brands in the future, it seems too much trouble to install yet...

I use Home Assistant for controlling my smart lights. They do support Docker, but I installed it as a VM with KVM. You get more features with it, such as add-ons. But you should definitely look into your options. They have a diagram on this page.

Y’all have terrible tab hygiene. I have 0 tabs 99% of the time, phone and desktop. Need something for later? Write it down. Once you’re past so many tabs, you’ll never look at it again.

Why does it have to be this complicated? See flow chart for sanity:

90% of my work is done in WSL anyways… I would much rather have KDE as my DE than Windows 11. Please Microsoft, if you love Linux so much now, port Office to it, and maybe my employer would be ok with it.

Hmm, this doesn’t look well optimized. I think I can fix it by adding just 1 more lane.

How Grille Design is Killing people (youtu.be)

I don’t totally belong in this community as I rather like cars & motorcycles (but not how dependent our society is on them), but I really enjoyed the well researched video Fortnine put together on how the height of the front bumper/grille is the greatest predictor of pedestrian collision fatality and I felt it’d be a good...

xlash123,
@xlash123@sh.itjust.works avatar

As pointed out in the video, studies show that the for pedestrian deaths, the greatest predictor by far is the height of the grille. This is because of how the body collides with the front of the vehicle on impact. Lower grilles mean the pedestrian is launched upwards and falls onto the hood. Higher means you get hit by a wall with nowhere to go but down.

Because all vehicles are much more massive than people, the difference in mass between a heavy vehicle and a light vehicle is a near negligible factor in these cases.

As a Christian, I can tell you that is not a Christian sentiment at all, that is hate. Jesus preached to love your neighbor, not condemn them and toss them aside. It is through unconditional love that we are to show people what we stand for. Just look at who Jesus hung out with: prostitutes, tax collectors, and other social outcasts. No wonder why he was unpopular at the time.

It is so disheartening to see people proclaim themselves as Christian and not understanding and living its core values. I don’t care whether or not the Bible says it’s a sin. Sinner or not, that doesn’t affect how I treat people. It is a tragedy when anyone is targeted by bullying, and it hurts even more because of their death. We should be pushing for change to give trans people safety, not casting them aside. That is what a real Christian would do. “Let he who is without sin cast the first stone.”

Criticism of the comic aside, two party system is still definitely undesirable. I believe it is a side effect of first past the post voting. What we really should implement is ranked choice voting. It gets rid of the dumb “voting third party is voting for [opposite party]” argument by letting you vote for who you want guilt-free and falling back on your lower-ranked votes if #1 wasn’t popular enough.

But you know, this will always meet resistance because politicians would lose their jobs for implementing this.
