Man, I remember watching this guy about ten years ago. Great channel!

How should I rice Sway? in c/unixporn@lemmy.ml

Whoa! I've never seen someone running Parabola before! Could you tell me what WiFi card you have?

As for ricing, I'd recommend looking at colour schemes. I used to use Dracula, which has pre-built configs for GTK, Qt, i3/Sway, Xresources, and most terminals.

He would have been in his early 30s at this point, but if this tape I found online is anything to go by, he just looked like some dude.

OpenRC and sysvinit are probably the best options out there, and dinit looks promising. Personally, though, I like s6.

That's part of the reason we're making Chuck Norris jokes instead of sympathising one iota. May as well have some fun.

Yeah, but in my experience it isn't great. Salix is a lot nicer.

Of course, your mileage may vary. There are definitely still a lot of true slackers out there!

Since the XNU kernel is part Mach, part OSFMK, and part FreeBSD, all NeXT machines and all Macs made since the 2000s run BSD.

KDE Liquid is also a thing.

Suggestions for a talk at university (lemmy.ca)
 

I am a committee member in an infosec-focused student society, and I am going to be doing a talk next Wednesday. This is to be called "Brave GNU World" and (as the name suggests) it's about FOSS and the free software movement.

We've had some fairly dry talks and some quite fantastic ones over the years, and I want this to be the latter (my previous attempts have been successful), so I plan to focus on some of the more entertaining details; but I will get the whole picture across in any case.

So, does anyone have any suggestions or ideas?

Opinions on this gemlog post? (lemmy.ca)

I was browsing Gemini (the protocol, not the AI) when I came across this gemlog:

I usually disable JavaScript, but this post advises against it. I am also worried by the fact that most users of Fingerprint.com, Am I Unique?, and Cover Your Tracks will likely be using private browsers, so the real-world results would be quite different.

What do you think?

Suggestions for first C project (lemmy.ca)

I have always had a great deal of respect for C, and I would like to start writing in it. However, while I am skilled in other languages, I basically don't know any C off the top of my head.

I find that I learn better and faster by attempting projects, rather than working through a book ir taking a class. For example, to learn Perl, I am working on a basic disk image writer that's coming along nicely.

So, what do you think might be a good idea for my first C project?

EDIT: Zig is also something I'm interested in learning. Same question, different language.
