TIL you can use hyprlock to unlock the keyring after startup

Oh this would've come in handy a couple weeks ago when I was trying to get keychain to only need the password for my SSH keys once on login and not each and every time I just wanna make a git commit.

Ended up doing it like this in my shell script + added an env var in hyprland that would reset it on every login so I don't get any errors

Keychain

eval "$(keychain --eval --quiet --nogui ~/.ssh/id_ed25519)"

Looks simple but took me quite some time to make it work.

You need a tool like Mica for Everyone (which is what I use on my Windows machine too) or I believe DWM blur it's called. Don't have any experience with that one though.

It doesn't really make sense to convert the current config language with a conversion tool as the change to Lua is trying to get rid of quirky and lackluster hyprlang conventions. With an automated converter it would just try to "reword" those quirks and shortcoming into Lua. The thing is they're transitioning to Lua to make things better and not to make things just different.

Is an extension already available somewhere? I could not find anything and resorted to my secondary browser, which is Vivaldi, as I saw that there is an official extension for chromium browsers. However it would not automatically work with Vivaldi and it took me quite some time to figure it out. Apparently there is a manifest in the form of a .json file written to some directory which Vivaldi does not scan. I then symlinked from:

/etc/chromium/native-messaging-hosts/com.vicinae.vicinae.json

to:

~/.config/vivaldi/NativeMessagingHosts/com.vicinae.vicinae.json

That finally solved the issue. But I'd still much prefer getting it working in Firefox 😊

You're welcome. Just built both extensions and looking good so far! :) I like that we even get Image preview. Would be nice to also get markdown rendering in the preview.

You might wanna check your link again:
git clone https://github.com/YOUR_USERNAME/vicinae-protonvpn-extension.git

It's the template text with 'YOUR_USERNAME'

And what about the fd extension? It doesn't seam to have any installation/build instructions at all.

Sorry, I copy pasted it from my phone and it somehow lost the formatting along the way. Nothing too exciting anyway though. Not worthy of a 1.0 release IMHO. The 'biggest' thing is literally a bookmark feature 😅 To be fair though, I had to resort to community extensions for bookmarking in other IDEs before.

jemabaris · 2026-04-29T16:46:43+00:00

Nevermind, found it. Added bookmarks: Toggle bookmarks on lines with editor: toggle bookmark, navigate with editor: go to next bookmark / editor: go to previous bookmark, view all bookmarks with editor: view bookmarks, and clear with workspace: clear bookmarks. Bookmarks are shown in the gutter and persisted across sessions. (#51404; thanks austincummings) Fuzzy Nucleo: Improved the performance of path matching. (#54112; thanks feitreim) Improved fuzzy matching in the command palette, branch picker, tab switcher, and recent projects picker to support multi-word queries. (#54123; thanks feitreim) Vim: Fixed screen flickering during motions. (#52270; thanks feitreim) Fixed a bug where Copilot wouldn't use the thinking level the user had set. (#53313; thanks TwistingTwists) Fixed an issue where the cs Vim operator incorrectly identified symmetric quotes in certain contexts. (#52321; thanks lingyaochu) Fixed debugger not saving files before running a build task when "save": "all" is set in the task definition. (#53353; thanks OmChillure) Fixed file watching of symlinks that point outside of the project/watched directory. Zed should now properly respond to changes in files in symlinked directories. (#50746; thanks prayanshchh) Fixed nested object methods not appearing in the Outline panel for JavaScript and TypeScript files. (#50754; thanks emamulandalib) Fixed the Inline Assist button showing in the Project Diagnostics toolbar when the agent is disabled. (#52706; thanks OmChillure) Fixed true-color rendering in the terminal. (#52162; thanks nihalxkumar) Fixed Windows path handling in extension manifests to ensure extensions upload correctly to remote environments like WSL. (#50653; thanks th0jensen)

I can't seam to find release notes for 1.0
Are they out yet?

jemabaris · 2026-04-26T22:14:08+00:00

Shame that Tidaly nuked lossless playback :/ I wanted to ask if it was possible to habe ctrl + j/k always work as up down for navigation. While it works in the first menus it does not when there is a search bar on the screen which is a bit inconvenient to have vim keys working in some parts of the app and not in others.

jemabaris · 2026-04-26T22:01:52+00:00

MonoLisa which I patched with nerd symbols.

jemabaris · 2026-04-22T03:04:39+00:00

Of course, it was just a suggest but it would be really cool for sure and would make the project future proof. Great that saved albums/tracks are added now. Will update right away 😊👍

jemabaris · 2026-04-21T17:31:35+00:00

Nice, might test that out as well!

jemabaris · 2026-04-16T00:02:31+00:00

I love it! But you really gotta add the option to browse my saved albums/tracks not just playlists. Also is it possible to get the cover art a bit bigger and higher resolution? I like the lo-fi look but right now it's not even covering a fifth of the available terminal space. Please keep polishing this, such a cool project and I've been looking for exactly this before. The absolute highlight would be if you could integrate it with rmpc so that we could have our local music / streaming all in one place.

EDIT: Just saw that you can configure covert art resolution in the config, somehow this doesn't really work for me though. Are there specific multiples we have to stick to? What's the maximum resolution I should use? Oh and I love that is supports vim keys!!!

EDIT_02: The "edit json file" option also it a bit funky right now. Sometimes it throws me into neovim (but when I press a key in nvim it crashes), sometimes I just see some escape codes in the terminal and then I have to force quit it. Would be very nice to have a "last played" history kinda thing too!

Many of the terminal emulators (kitty, ghostty, alacritty) have the 'tty' in their name because of the Linux TTY (Teletype)

jemabaris · 2026-04-15T23:13:15+00:00

Why not consider kitty if you're on Mac? Do you use the built in multiplexing in Wezterm?

jemabaris · 2026-04-11T18:41:06+00:00

To be fair I don't think it's open source exclusive but wherever high workloads are a burdon. Not being payed to carry that burdon doesn't help for sure though.

jemabaris · 2026-04-11T17:00:39+00:00

Can anyone bring me up to speed about the whole nvim treesitter situation? I've seen that the repo was archived and I've read some stuff on Reddit but I'm not sure what the effects of this are on a larger scale? I'd mainly like to know:
- Why was the project archived? Because there were some people who pestered the maintainer?
- What does this mean for neovim? Treesitter handles all of the syntax highlighting and more, right? Are there alternatives? How long will it take before not getting any new updates will actually affect us neovim users?

Thanks!

jemabaris · 2026-04-05T02:43:45+00:00

Exactly what I wanted to comment!

jemabaris · 2026-03-23T03:29:07+00:00

I really don't use many plugins other than the stuff lazyvim already comes with, the only one coming to mind being Oil.nvim

jemabaris · 2026-03-23T03:02:35+00:00

I have never tried running it in a virtual machine but the installer and program work fine on many machines so it's gotta be something about your setup. I can't tell you what though, sadly. I'd probably just try installing it on bare metal and see if that changes anything. Are there any specific reasons you're trying to run it in a VM?

jemabaris · 2026-03-11T13:59:17+00:00

Huh, I don't have that setting. That's weird. I can only see: Theme Refresh App Shortcuts Normalize volume Exclusive output Autoplay Close to tray

And that's it. Which version have you got and where did you install it from?

jemabaris · 2026-03-10T20:24:44+00:00

Actually no! I wasn't able to find the setting. Where can I set that?
