Last Notes npub1f60hyt4dzjupxm23k5rjuw4wjennzl34lstch798t9ju5dpryczqynk7m6 Christian Hergert It would be awesome if there was a way in GNOME Shell quick settings to be able to one-time-charge to 100% even while preserving your normal 80% max. npub1f60hyt4dzjupxm23k5rjuw4wjennzl34lstch798t9ju5dpryczqynk7m6 Christian Hergert @nprofile…ynd9 I know this feeling well 😂 npub1f60hyt4dzjupxm23k5rjuw4wjennzl34lstch798t9ju5dpryczqynk7m6 Christian Hergert @nprofile…kjcu Oh man, the days of NetPositive and trying like hell to get my modem to work. A+ would do again. npub1f60hyt4dzjupxm23k5rjuw4wjennzl34lstch798t9ju5dpryczqynk7m6 Christian Hergert @nprofile…a4ar I'm very unlikely to use it in a personal sense. It has messed up UID permissions more times than I can count. npub1f60hyt4dzjupxm23k5rjuw4wjennzl34lstch798t9ju5dpryczqynk7m6 Christian Hergert Fedora: npub1f60hyt4dzjupxm23k5rjuw4wjennzl34lstch798t9ju5dpryczqynk7m6 Christian Hergert While the end of my time with my former employer was deeply saddening in so many ways, we couldn’t be happier with our move to France! npub1f60hyt4dzjupxm23k5rjuw4wjennzl34lstch798t9ju5dpryczqynk7m6 Christian Hergert @nprofile…jlkz there is one annoyance right now that is worked around with an environment variable and that is the vulkan device enumeration is slow when discrete card is asleep. Just force GSK to use GL. I mostly just run on the Intel iGPU. npub1f60hyt4dzjupxm23k5rjuw4wjennzl34lstch798t9ju5dpryczqynk7m6 Christian Hergert @nprofile…jlkz I find it “okay”. I switch between my new thinkpad P1 and it (MacBook pro m2 pro 16”) daily and now prefer the P1 even if it’s a little slower in single threaded perf. Nearly same size and weight. Oled is better. Touch is nice. Matte screen is amazing. npub1f60hyt4dzjupxm23k5rjuw4wjennzl34lstch798t9ju5dpryczqynk7m6 Christian Hergert @nprofile…re2d ctags has regex location identifiers that can be used for late-resolved jumps by name at least npub1f60hyt4dzjupxm23k5rjuw4wjennzl34lstch798t9ju5dpryczqynk7m6 Christian Hergert Apparently Red Hat couldn't get actual pictures of PoC for their yearly ethics training so they just AI generated them instead. npub1f60hyt4dzjupxm23k5rjuw4wjennzl34lstch798t9ju5dpryczqynk7m6 Christian Hergert Another project that was coordinated with this was a new http/mail server, for which the mail server is capable of not immediately getting black holed by Gmail. I got spf/dmarc/dkim all working but still in the reputation building ohase. Alma 10, postfix/dovecot/rspamd/opendkim. npub1f60hyt4dzjupxm23k5rjuw4wjennzl34lstch798t9ju5dpryczqynk7m6 Christian Hergert I was notified just recently that Ptyxis is now the default terminal in daily builds of what will become Ubuntu 25.10 (haven't installed to test though). npub1f60hyt4dzjupxm23k5rjuw4wjennzl34lstch798t9ju5dpryczqynk7m6 Christian Hergert @nprofile…j2fu Yes, I'm married to one. npub1f60hyt4dzjupxm23k5rjuw4wjennzl34lstch798t9ju5dpryczqynk7m6 Christian Hergert @nprofile…j2fu Because it's typically used to co-opt another culture/ethnicity. npub1f60hyt4dzjupxm23k5rjuw4wjennzl34lstch798t9ju5dpryczqynk7m6 Christian Hergert People saying "I was <blank> in a previous life" has got to be one of the stupidest and most colonist things I regularly hear. npub1f60hyt4dzjupxm23k5rjuw4wjennzl34lstch798t9ju5dpryczqynk7m6 Christian Hergert @nprofile…vklh not sure if I can make it by tomorrow but maybe I’ll grab some gnomies if I can. Convention center I assume? npub1f60hyt4dzjupxm23k5rjuw4wjennzl34lstch798t9ju5dpryczqynk7m6 Christian Hergert Since I won't be at GUADEC '25, I just spent an hour putting this together so I can feel like I'm going to be there. npub1f60hyt4dzjupxm23k5rjuw4wjennzl34lstch798t9ju5dpryczqynk7m6 Christian Hergert @nprofile…ln70 It's a pretty common C trick to put the length before the string and pass pointers to the start of the string. Then you can typedef that. npub1f60hyt4dzjupxm23k5rjuw4wjennzl34lstch798t9ju5dpryczqynk7m6 Christian Hergert Manuals will be replacing Devhelp in the Developer Tools suite for GNOME 49. Lets thanks all the contributors to Devhelp for years keeping things alive and functional! npub1f60hyt4dzjupxm23k5rjuw4wjennzl34lstch798t9ju5dpryczqynk7m6 Christian Hergert A quick intro on how to use Foundry for those who will never live in an IDE. npub1f60hyt4dzjupxm23k5rjuw4wjennzl34lstch798t9ju5dpryczqynk7m6 Christian Hergert @nprofile…6w8s Nope, it goes to the store vendor first and they do onsite deliveries. npub1f60hyt4dzjupxm23k5rjuw4wjennzl34lstch798t9ju5dpryczqynk7m6 Christian Hergert We just dropped off the first stocking of my wife's hot sauce for the Portland International Airport!
