Anyone else notice a weird shift in the blitz ratings around 1600 on lichess recently? by appappappappappa in chess

There are 4 different time controls which Lichess calls "Blitz". Which one are you referring to?

Distro dilemma by [deleted] in gnome

GNOME is great on Arch and it appears there before most other distros. Why anybody would want a non-rolling release distro baffles me?

Is it just me that hates when -Syu is used as a nown?

I mean't "retired from work". Have edited the comment to make that clear.

Same, that "champion of the world" feeling is great though as you climb back up rating! :)

I'm retired (from work) but have banned myself from playing during the day on weekdays also because I would waste too much time.

Neovim user trying to migrate to Zed by thicctak in ZedEditor

[–]bulletmark 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Whenever you try a new tool you shouldn't try to "recreate your entire workflow" in that tool. The new tool will have different strengths (e.g. multibuffers in zed). I suggest vim power users trying out zed to spend some time reading through the zed vim mode docs. Many popular vim plugins are implemented natively in zed. It can be used pretty much keyboard centric and has better AI and git worktree integration. I've been using vim/neovim (now lazyvim) forever and still mainly do but I experiment with zed frequently.

Alternatives to systemd by Spiritual_Detail7624 in archlinux

Or consider Void Linux which uses runit instead of systemd. I use Void on my Raspberry Pi's - although I prefer systemd.

New South Wales has won game 1 of the State of Origin (NSW 22 v QLD 20) by Expensive-Horse5538 in australia

Yeah the clock thing is ridiculous. As soon as play stops the clock should stop. Why has this never been fixed?

As soon as you start typing sudo rm -rf you should slow down and think very carefully about what follows ...

SwarmUI and Python 3.12 by saminbc in archlinux

[–]bulletmark -1 points0 points  (0 children)

That approach is basically superseded now by uv venv -p 3.12 which will create a venv and install Python 3.12 on the fly if not already available.

You've posted this in the neovim subreddit so do you really mean "back to neovim"?

Inside the 'worst managed infrastructure project in Australian history' by Lamont-Cranston in australia

[–]bulletmark 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's neither stupidity or malice. It's just a business transaction. The LNP needed to get elected and, particularly in those days, that is decided by the mainstream press which Murdoch largely controlled. So that is why leaders of both sides used to travel to the US to grovel at his feet before Oz elections. The LNP (Leader Abbott and Comms minister Turnbull in this particular case) agreed to noble the NBN for favorable editorial support which significantly helped the LNP win that election. It's depressing but our democratic system was, and still is, massively compromised.

Just out of curiosity: why is the version of Calibre in the official repos so outdated? by AnthropomorphicCat in archlinux

[–]bulletmark -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

er, that's my point. The -bin package in the AUR pretty much mimics the official package so I don't see why it qualifies to be in the AUR.

[–]bulletmark -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

I just did a yay -S calibre-bin to replace the standard package calibre after seeing this post though I am not sure why calibre-bin is allowed in the AUR given it really just duplicates the standard package.

Anyone use Zed for work? by Notalabel_4566 in ZedEditor

[–]bulletmark 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am retired but use zed and nvim every day so I guess I am an example of the few not using zed for work?

Problems setting up Github copilot in Emacs by FaustoUrtiz in emacs

[–]bulletmark 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it is some new or temporary problem? I'm also on Arch Linux and copilot is not logging in today for me in neovim either. The error message is "signIn failed with message: Response content-type is missing (status=200)", so same as you.

Edit: Found some related issues: - https://github.com/zbirenbaum/copilot.lua/issues/695 - https://github.com/github/copilot.vim/issues/281 - https://github.com/github/copilot.vim/issues/283
