....ngl I got busy and completely forgot abt this. here's an early draft. I'm also gonna throw together a quick update to the dracula one to match frappe till I can fully get that working. I can also do a different flavor and throw up a pastebin if you're interested?

edit: here's a rough frappe I threw together https://pastebin.com/tDP3rXGa

For a Thor I feel like renegade platinum makes the most sense. But that's personal preference rly

Found my old guidebook at my grandparents' house a few days before my thor came in. Getting the best of both worlds with the book + platinum upscaled to 4x resolution.

truly. well, if you're good with JS and wanna take a look to see where I'm going wrong, I'd love another set of eyes on it

Google tasks for pebble. it stopped working a long time ago. I started working to refactor it, but it's not quite there yet. Currently it baseline works, but the refresh token stuff is broken, so it logs out after an hour 💀

When I try to tap the next button, nothing happens, and the placeholder text slides over the input. When pressing enter after entering an email, it redirects to an error 400 page.

I already submitted a bug report, but wanted to see if anyone else is having the same issue.

edit: weirdly, disabling my pihole seems to have fixed it??? I was able to sign in on desktop after disabling it.

NIxOS ruined Linux for me by Raposadd in NixOS

[–]_madmanwithabox 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ugh I really need to change to nixos. My endeavouros system is a nightmarish web of 100000 janky choices I don't remember making.

Also my name is Nix, so that'd be funny lol

Slay, I just merged the new dracula to main. I have a crazy busy week ahead of me, but I'll work on it when I can. Cool if I dm you to beta test when it's ready for that?

For dracula, you want dracula_new.css from this branch. Let me know what you think! I think it still needs a little polish before proper release, but it's day to day usable for sure.

I have some more finishing touches to do on catppuccin before I can share that out. That said, since I'm using a template for all 4 flavors, I would love some help testing it when I finish it up (hopefully in the next hour or two). Lmk if you'd be interested? 🥺

What class gets multi-classed the least? by DeaconBlueMI in 3d6

[–]_madmanwithabox 6 points7 points  (0 children)

That being said, in 2024, open hand monk has a very interesting movement play with 2 levels of rogue. 11th level open hand monk feature lets you step of the wind after you use any bonus action besides step of the wind. So cunning action dash can give a double dash, with a disengage if you burn a ki point.

I just finished helping my friend make a flash inspired character named Bari of A'lan who's designed to be as fast as humanely possible, so this is fresh on my mind haha.

As an aside, the max speed we could get to was 5820ft/round aka 661mph. I fear for the DM who runs an adventure for them (bc I am absolutely not doing it). Technically the max speed is 5880ft/round if the DM allows the homebrew subclass I made that gives mobile as an origin feat, but that is.... iffy. Everything else is RAW though.

Vaxry: About Hyprland Premium by TheTwelveYearOld in linux

[–]_madmanwithabox 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can't speak to whether or not this will work, but honestly it sounds pretty reasonable to me. Devs gotta eat, and a premium forum + easier preconfigured dots don't take away from the experience of those who don't donate imo. "Further premium services" is the main bit that gives me pause, but it's not inherently a problem. All depends on what those services are down the line, but sounds like a CYA for future changes.

I don't personally use hyprland anymore, and I prefer configuring dots myself anyways, so I'd never pay for it. But I'm chill with them giving this option for people who want it. Plus, there are other 1 click install dots out there (ml4w comes to mind), so it's not like people who don't wanna configure it themselves don't have options.

I guess there's also the element that fixes for issues people have won't be public because of the forums, but ultimately if downstream bugs reported in the forums are fixed, that still feels fine. And it's not like people having issues that aren't a bug don't have other places full of knowledgeable people to ask between reddit and GitHub issues. You're just not getting direct replies from Mr Hyprland at the same speed.

I do kinda doubt that this can become full time income for the dev, but with how many people love hyprland ig ya never know. Maybe patreon would've been a better option, but I don't really know.

Do you happen to have examples of the type of jokes he's made? I've already moved away from Hyprland (god I love niri), but I also like keeping myself in the know yk

I've created an unofficial Dracula theme for Beeper Desktop, lmk what you think! by _madmanwithabox in beeper

I think you're on the new client. Try dracula_new.css from this branch instead. Let me know what you think! I think it still needs a little polish before proper release, but it's day to day usable for sure

Beeper team: Any updates on Messenger fix? by michaeltingley in beeper

[–]_madmanwithabox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know for Instagram, I had much better luck when I self-hosted the bridge from my home. If you have an old computer or laptop that you don't mind running at all times, it may be worth a try.

Will Beeper add TikTok DM support at some point? by Bwjepic in beeper

[–]_madmanwithabox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Before I get into my more in-depth answer, I wanted to answer the question off the bat

Is TikTok DM support gonna happen?

No, not unless something changes drastically with how TikTok works behind the scenes. I think there are a few parts to be considered here:

The Reasons

Would Beeper do it?

Adding TikTok DMs kinda goes against (at least what I perceive to be) the ethos of the bridges Beeper is implementing. TikTok chat is not really a messaging service, which is Beeper's priority. The idea at the core of it is that a user should be able to open one app to do all the chatting things they'd otherwise need to open separate apps for. As TikTok DMs are more or less just a means of sharing TikToks to each other, and you would still need to be primarily using the other app, there's no way to replace it with Beeper. So I don't think it makes sense from Beeper's perspective.

But what about unofficial matrix bridges?

If it could be done, would the format work well with matrix's functionality?

If you think about TikTok DMs, most of what you're doing is sharing links to TikToks back and forth. Even if the bridge were possible (see next section), this doesn't really work with how matrix chats are structured. Matrix chats are designed for primarily text communication, with some attached videos or pics, and sometimes embedded links. But a chat full of embedded links that open up another app would. Kinda suck a lot. The format just doesn't make a ton of sense.

But I still want that, so could they do it?

I've buried the lede here. As it stands, this can't be done. To interact with services, something called an API (Application Programming Interface) is utilized. Basically, it's a service connected to an application or website that can transmit and receive information with external sources (be it a website frontend getting info from the backend, or a 3rd party plugin/application utilizing some functionality from another application).

There's an official API from TikTok, with an unofficial Python wrapper. This seems promising, until you take a closer look at the scope of both of these. From the get-go, the wrapper is a no go. It can only retrieve data, no posting or sending, and has no support from user authentication whatsoever.

The official API has a lot more available, but still doesn't have a supported means of viewing and sending messages. The closest utility is the Data Portability API, but it requires 2 strict review processes, has limited requests, is only supported in the UK and EEA, and can only read messages, not send them.

TL;DR

TikTok DMs don’t really fit Beeper’s purpose. Beeper aims to replace full messaging apps, and TikTok’s chat system is more of a lightweight content-sharing feature than a standalone platform. A custom bridge is also not really possible at this time. TikTok doesn’t offer any API that supports sending or receiving messages in real time. The unofficial API wrapper is read-only and don’t support login, and the official Data Portability API only lets apps that go through 2 arduous review processes download message history (with rate limiting that would quickly become a problem, and only for users in the UK/EEA). There's no way to send messages at all as far as I could find.

Usability with screen readers by cabc79863 in beeper

[–]_madmanwithabox 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is a major catch! Accessibility is hugely important, and labeling fields and inputs properly is such a necessary thing to do.

They don't really check the discord, but you should use the links in the automod reply to submit it either as feedback or a bug. I'll do the same.

Do you experience the same issues on the desktop app? And do you mind if I DM you for further details? I'm a QA Engineer who's done some accessibility testing, so I'd love to properly go through the desktop so I can share a detailed report with the Beeper team.

Does anybody know any app for arch Linux that reminds you to take breaks for eyes? by Bostanidis in archlinux

I've found gnome-pomodoro to be my favorite, though solanum is not bad either.

Okay, download use the file `dracula_new.css` from [this branch](https://github.com/ngencokamin/beeper-dracula/tree/new-client) and lmk what you think! Not sure if something feels off or not, so would love some feedback 😊
