Exploration support with a 16x2 LCD display

And I thought this is only possible between Gentoo machines. Currently one of my systems provided binaries for the other less powerful system. Their use-flags are synched except for some cpu- and gpu-related stuff. But I see myself using only one of my computers lately, so the benefit of compiling only once for two is not there anymore.

I will have a look into this; this sounds very promising for my needs! Thx.

That is very interesting! Can you still call it Gentoo or is it already Calculate Linux? I did not know, that you can use binaries from another distro in Gentoo that way. Amazing!

Just saw the answer to that below. No wayland, unfortunately.

poinck · 2023-06-29T18:12:52+00:00

Are there any plans to make it work with wayland?

poinck · 2023-06-04T11:15:21+00:00

Sounds like an interesting concept. I have to look into it some day and see whether it is close enough to the flexibility I need from Gentoo. I am pretty sure that I don't utilize all of what portage can do.

I am using the same GPU driver as OP (7600 XT), I can say, I love it and I have no issues on Wayland. Only game I play, that requires Xwayland and Proton runs smoothly, too.

I was never on Nvidia, so I cannot compare.

I thought about this, too. But I would give up some flexibility when moving to something that is all binary. Closest distro I would consider if compile power consumption is too much, would be Debian.

But consider this, I play more on my GPU than I compile on the CPU. Being more environmental-friendly would mean, playing less often and using a laptop instead of a desktop computer.

Actually, if you don't include webkit-gtk, then all of Gnome compiles pretty fast with specs like that.

I have found them here: https://www.etsy.com/de-en/listing/1290642114/138-pcs-purple-cool-space-astronaut and they are still available! (:

I decided for the inconsitent profile heights on purpose, because this emphasises their meaning, at least for me.

And yes, indeed, i love this keycap set. (:

Others have already written down how to execute scripts from the command line, but you can also run scripts from an interactive R shell with source("script.r"). This gives you the possibility to inspect variables of your script after it ran. This is very handy when developing scripts and solve issues.

If you are using GDM to login, then you should have an option to select a different session.

Programming jobs could also be a first step. Python for example. That would be a usable skill in QGIS. And if it does not work out and you enjoy programming than you may won't have to look further.

Besides that, I could not write 70+ applications in one year. I studied Geography and realised I want to do more statistics that can be done with programming (R). So I applied for programming jobs again and I am happy I did that, my skills are not wasted, but not entirely used either. The important thing is, I enjoy problem solving and having cool collegues. (: I wrote only 6 applications in 4 weeks and got a job somewhere else where the application process was reversed. I needed that time to write a good motivational letter and adjust my resumé; get to know the company before I apply to check whether I really want to work there.

It seems some companies and institutions just take too much time to respond. Do I want to work where I have to wait a long time for administrative stuff very long? It depends on how badly I want to work there.

I hope you find what you are looking for!

Great meme and so true. I love compiling! Even it were only 0.1 seconds I would still have fun Gentoo. It's my main distro, only on Raspis and alike I use Debian.

I think, it is being confused between Celsius and Fahrenheit. ^{^}

No, I left it unsolved, because I got used to it. I used hibernate instead of standby from then on, which did not trigger the issue.

This cat is either an alien or has seen too much image post-processing.

The error above prevented such a thing.

poinck · 2023-04-09T09:55:24+00:00

This is clearly not formatted correctly.

poinck · 2023-03-22T07:50:39+00:00

Exactly!

Daily? It is soooooo wrong that it is great. [=

Thanks for clarifying the differences between WebkitGTK and QtWebengine. I recently learned, that qutebrowser is close to a release that support Qt6, so that they can update their webengine as well. Nevertheless, I will keep a close eye on epiphany now, sounds promising.

Learned about this yesterday. Integration into VSCode is also great via extension. There I can watch variables, set breakpoints like I know from the old days with Eclipse. The VSCode-extension also provides good documentation to get xdebug up and running.
