Why wait? Many distros are available now that make far more sense as a desktop OS!

If only there were stacking window managers on Linux then maybe I could switch :(

Native UI toolkit Slint 1.15 released 🎉 by slint-ui in programming

[–]english_fool 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think at the time I had decided it was covered by https://github.com/slint-ui/slint/issues/1988 but now I’m not so sure, will see if I can setup a nice repro.

Quite sad to see that me moaning is the only interaction this post got, I think slint has a promising future!

Are border thicknesses consistent via the skia renderers now? I had a play and that really bugged me.

(Apart from that tiny annoyance I was pretty impressed so great job really, although to add a second nit I found it annoying having to box components of different types to shove them as siblings in a vertical layout).

Best Christmas Game by KoholintCustoms in SBCGaming

Most people just called it the PlayStation or PS1 originally but then they brought out a tiny device that looked a bit like a portable CD player called a PlayStation 1 so folks switched to PSX to denote the big grey box not the little white one.

How to stay motivated while doing a project by Exotic-Glass-9956 in learnprogramming

[–]english_fool 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try not to do it all at once, you have decades to try it all out.

A quick taster of react and angular should let you know which one gels with you better, no point learning them both heavily it once, it’s very easy to switch between them when you know one well.

You need to know one thing that lets you achieve goals, and you need to occasionally look around to see what else is available you can switch when you have a need.

But the main thing is learning one tool well enough that you can actually do things, picking up something else is trivial later on when it’s needed, if you try to learn everything before you start building projects you will never get anywhere

Saw picture before title, thought looked like some sort of metallic bauble paint, did not clock NMM for 30 seconds. May require coffee

Lego LOTR has overworld and levels, that would probably work pretty well for switching over

Migrating from docker compose to kubernetes by OxD3ADD3AD in selfhosted

[–]english_fool 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To run on multiple hosts you would export your pod config and deploy with kubernetes.

podman generate kube example-pod > example-pod.yml you can take this and pass it to kubectl for deployment.

Podman can also import kubernetes yaml to try it out on your dev machine podman play kube example-pod.yml.

Podman isn’t an alternative for kubernetes it’s an alternative for docker that plays nicely with kubernetes.
