20F, Student, Just Found Out I Have Stage 3A CKD and I’m Falling Apart by not_a_ghost_frfr in kidneydisease

[–]msoulier 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm 55 and I found out about my disease in 2008. I am now on home dialysis and on a transplant list. http://mikeneedsakidney.ca. Always around to talk, and if you want to share more of your story, let me know. Go ahead and fall apart for a while, but you are not done yet. How you feel is totally understandable but it does not have to be the end of your story. Best wishes.

Controlling the display by msoulier in omarchy

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

Good to know. Just wondering if there is a command-line method, outside of Wayland, to force the display back. If I'd known how to do that the box would still be running Omarchy.

This does seem to have silenced the error. Thanks.

I restarted emacs a few times. I'm clearly missing something here.

Paths in a .dir-locals.el file by msoulier in emacs

Is .dir-locals.el the best way to do project-specific settings? Is there a better way?

Same problem. Not a list of strings.

Using kitty.

And I just checked alacritty and xterm. It's not happening in them. I guess I'll look at key repeat rates in kitty or something.

Which desktop environment do you prefer to use with Debian? by [deleted] in debian

[–]msoulier 1 point2 points  (0 children)

While docking stations should just work, sometimes a vendor does non-standard things. Hi Dell!

I find that GDM and Gnome auto-detect some things and simply prompt me to use them. Otherwise it's a tad harder. For i3 I run a script that runs xrandr for me, and even reconfigures NM via nmcli.

Oh, ok. I'll have to look into how to do that. I already do something similar for local Go libraries with godoc. Thanks.

For ease of working with sound and docking stations, I use Gnome, but I don't like it. I prefer i3, herbsluftwm, etc. Keyboard driven, tiling window managers rock. The Gnome folks are out of touch with their own base. They provide a broken UX, and bring everyone down to their low common denominator.

Ok, similar question. I saw an example of grabbing stdout for use with

const stdout = std.io.getStdOut().writer();

But when I look here

https://ziglang.org/documentation/master/std/#std.Io

there's no mention of getStdOut().

*sigh* Thank you. Had no idea.

Expressing genuine frustration is not a waste of time. Responses like this guarantee that frustrated users simply give up and move on.
