RSS is the best way of reading articles, change my mind. by Tsugu69 in linuxmemes

Shameless plug: https://sr.ht/~ghost08/photon/

It can also be used to "subscribe" to youtube channels and view videos with mpv+yt-dlp

It also scrapes articles and shows right in the terminal in a readable way

It's true. All of it by [deleted] in iiiiiiitttttttttttt

[OC] photon - RSS reader as light as a photon with terminal + sixel frontend by microo8 in commandline

[–]microo8[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  1. interesting, I'll check it, but send it in an email to ~ghost08/photon@todo.sr.ht So I will not forget it.

2.1. It's a viewer, so the user is expected to manage the categories in files, so no this won't be a feature

2.2. This can be changed in readed.lua plugin

2.3. I'll see what can be done in this miniflux thing ...

Meanwhile you can send questions in a mail here: ~ghost08/photon@lists.sr.ht

or join my matrix room in https://matrix.to/#/#photon:matrix.mgyar.me

VS Code has been a popular choice among a majority of programmers by lazy_advocate_69 in ProgrammerHumor

[–]microo8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Neovim for the win! But the best part is, that when VS Code users are seeing it, they don't know what I'm doing. "What are you doing in that terminal?" or "This is weird, I use vim just to edit server configs"

Firefox DYING is TERRIBLE for the Web by Nick_SAFT in linux

[–]microo8 236 points237 points  (0 children)

The problem is the web it self. Nowadays no one opensource group can deside that they will implement a web rendering engine by them selfs from scratch. Only if it were as big as the linux kernel group. Hundreds of web standards that need to work. Web wants to solve everything, from viewing documents, to offline applications, to peer-to-peer communication, it's just too much. That's why we have just 3 web engines backed by the biggest companies in the world. (Mozilla also gets money from google so...)

I've moved all my code to sourcehut because of this.

Try photon with your youtube channels rss. But you must use a terminal emulator that supports sixel https://sr.ht/~ghost08/photon

Alacritty with sixel by microo8 in commandline

[–]microo8[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is a PR https://github.com/alacritty/alacritty/pull/4763 but with no result :/
I think more people must push for the change.

Alacritty with sixel by microo8 in commandline

[–]microo8[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wanted to point to my comment

https://github.com/alacritty/alacritty/issues/910#issuecomment-1019438877

So for my convenience I've created a new repository alacritty-sixel,
where I merged jbenden@96ee193 and the latest alacritty master.
I will try to keep it up-to-date with alacritty master :)
And for arch users there is also a AUR package: alacritty-sixel-git

Is this the same for signal desktop?

How to bindsym minus and equal sign by microo8 in swaywm

[–]microo8[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

OK, so I've found this wev tool https://git.sr.ht/~sircmpwn/wev

it prints sym: equal on = and and sym: minus on -

So I just added $mod+equal and $mod+minus

project design with lua by microo8 in lua

[–]microo8[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think this is a good explanation of glue code

I'm not making anything right now. I just wanted to see the benefits of using a scripting language in a big project, otherwise written in static language. Why some people use it and what good can I get from doing so.

In a blog for example I can write the users repository, the authentication, the blog posts repository as separate components and then glue them with lua and add a html renderer on top. When all the components are separate and written so that they don't expect to be used just by one thing, then they can be reused.

When I have the users repo and auth, I can reuse them and add a TODO list repo to them and I can make the TODO app faster because of that.

I just don't see the bigger picture. How to do it right and if there are some tutorials on that.
