Am trying wayland with KDE and it's quite nice, except dialogs for GTK-3(4?) apps have buttons at the top and other apps have buttons at the bottom, and this is a little infuriating to say the least.

It stems from a default value chosen ten years ago temporarily hardcoded for the wayland backend only: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gtk/-/commit/8e797c1195b2a6b45a83e2fe321eb9d1faa2e8c6

So either I force GTK apps to use Xwayland, or patch GTK/wayland and compile from source.

I'm gonna try GDK_BACKEND=x11 and see how it goes

I tried to make kao fu but it didn't quite work out. My dry yeast was too old and didn't do much. I'm left with something more like seitan, so it's still okay!

Is there software somewhere to help train yourself to remember your passwords? Like a quizz. The software doesn't have to know your password, just a strong hash to tell you if you got it right or not, it's not meant to correct mistakes only to practice typing the passwords so you don't forget.

Is this a security concern to have and use such software? Better solutions?

I'd need that for passwords I seldom use but are very important.

I had one Palm Vx with no base station and now I have two Palm Vx, two base stations, one charger, and a Palm Tungsten T with its base station and charger.

One Palm Vx (the one I had) has absolutely no battery capacity left (not surprised). The Tungsten has 2 seconds of autonomy, the other Palm Vx seems to have a few hours.

Well, fun times ahead with these cute thingies :3

@Kooda suggested that I make a pen holder module for my CNC machine so I can make it into a very precise but very slow plotter :D

Oops, I have ordered the cheap CNC router :x

Really looking forward to milling my own PCBs and wooden thingies and maybe boxes for some projects!

I'm feeling extremely frustrated that no todo list app in F-Droid lets you re-enable all tasks in a group of tasks? I feel like this is a very useful feature :/ If you know about an app that'd let me do that, I'm interested

Edit: QuillPad has that feature, thanks to @Stepland for the recommandation!

Now I have my Moonlight+Sunshine personal game streaming set up over wireguard, it's super laggy over 4G obviously, but locally it's super snappy! Now to test it in different places with different kinds of Internet connections :D

The people working with Voyager probes that now live in radiation lands, waiting days to get responses to their commands that might succeed or fail, using the equivalent of the slowest serial port to try and debug things when they inevitably break…

Meanwhile, when I reboot my server in the datacenter and it doesn't respond in 2 minutes, I panic

Maybe I'll have to change the battery :/ It's probably 10 to 11 years old now and the little tinkering I did with it quickly drained it.
