One thing to note, Daniel Stenberg has explicitly stated several times that as long as the code is up to cURL’s coding standards, he’s more than willing to add Gemini support to cURL. Re: The Gemini Protocol Seen by This HTTP Client Person.This one is a bit back to the roots: let’s use a SLOW computer for 7 days. The second one with Internet time limitation was hard to setup. The first one wasn’t easy for many because it required to use an old machine, but many readers didn’t have a spare old computer (weird right? :P). If you don’t know about it, it’s a weird challenge I’ve did twice in the past 3 years that consists into limiting my computer performance using old hardware, or by limiting Internet access to 60 minutes a day. Hi! It’s that time of the year when I announce a new Old Computer Challenge So I decided to take a look at the future of Linux display system. Though recently I had some issues with xmobar crashing (which was solved by switching away from xmobar obviously) and also longer startup times (30+ seconds) for some applications (which was actually the fault of xdg-desktop-portal-gnome and which was not fixed by switching to Wayland, but I found another fix for that in the meantime). Of course, I had my own Xmonad configuration (which is actually pretty minimal) including xmobar for the status bar. It is great, and I love it and I would certainly return to it if I didn’t think Wayland was already ready for me. In the last (at least) year I have been daily-driving Xmonad (which obviously uses the X11 display server). So I recently tried it out and am happy to report that it may not only be the future, but is already very usable in many circumstances.īefore discussing my switch to Wayland though, it is worth talking about what I have been using until now. It is believed that Wayland is going to be the future of display managers for Linux. Wayland – Only the Future or Already the Present.You might win a few races here and there, but a lot of the time you’re going to be beaten, and even made to look a bit rubbish. This is your chance to be in the best car, to finish ahead of everyone… except one person. But your team mate will be someone highly rated. You get offered a seat at the front running team. When I write something in English or think and dream in English, this is often a perplexing issue that confuses me and makes it challenging for me to fully immerse myself in the “Anglo Zone.” Or in the “Latin Zone,” for that matter. Some are 30K word “offline” journals, some are short “personal experience essays”. I just made a big folder called “WRITE SHIT” and stored them on Proton Drive and my local machine. I went through the Trash on Google Drive and pCloud, and I found heaps of old PDFs and. It was unbelievable, definitely the highest score I’ve ever had. Four Yahtzees, including one on the first roll. My mother-in-law won the second game today, but I absolutely cleaned up in the first game. We play two games of Yahtzee a week with my in-laws. Vacuum cleaners are a solution to a problem that does not need to exist! They’re temperamental, noisy, energy-intensive, and most of all wholly unnecessary. Just get a rug instead, which can be patted down outside, or cleaned like every other piece of fabric you own. The only caveat is that they only really work on smooth surfaces, and so, I hear you say, what about carpet! And its a very good point, vacuum cleaners are much better at cleaning carpet, and my answer that is simple: don’t have carpet. Brilliantly simple with no moving parts, no batteries nor power source needed, nothing that can really go wrong. There’s the broom, the mop, and dustpan-and-brush. Now, there are a few very simple devices that have existed since time immemorial. It’s a simple problem really: floors get dusty and dirty and the grim has to be periodically removed, but it is not a fun task so we want a device that gets the job done quickly and effectively. This might seem a bit absurd or hyperbolic but I think that vacuum cleaners are the archetype for the over-engineering which we see in literally everything today it seems. I have a short scene ready to go (Scouting Mission), and will publish a much longer scene in a few days after I have a change to clean it up. This one isn’t so light-hearted like Lantashi’s Dance, so takes more effort for me to write. I’ve actually had a couple people ask me about this story lately, and I really appreciate the interest! I love the story, and have much more written in a very, very rough form, including the ending. I’ve been working on my Hybrid Shadows – my Sci-fi, Transhuman story. Hybrid Shadows – Watched, Scouting Mission.
