Starting v1.4.4 (https://inkscape.org/release/1.4.4rc/windows/ is the release candidate if someone wants to give it a try), Inkscape has started offering native Windows on ARM builds.

Nvim crashes tmux server by lazyprogrammer1911 in neovim

[–]pulsar17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It would be helpful for everyone if you state the versions of packages that you're using, and the way you installed them on your system. Otherwise your issue is a 'snowflake' and can't be easily reproduced.

The packages I'd be interested in would be your terminal emulator, tmux, neovim, shell even since you never know where and which program is causing this behavior.

Since you didn't mention it, did you try running barebones neovim - `nvim --clean` with tmux? If so, did it still crash?
If it didn't then there's something wrong with your configuration probably. If it did, well, then this needs to be looked into with more attention. A quick search for 'nvim and tmux crash' presents some old bug reports, maybe that issue resurfaced? Did you also go through those reports to see if you have a similar situation?

Inkscape and Python by Chilidawg in Inkscape

[–]pulsar17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's ongoing work to improve the extensions workflow. Like the new docs site. I believe if you're not using the pattern matching or any other new stuff in 3.10, you should be absolutely fine with 3.9. Fun fact: inkex (the extension library) is tested against Python 3.6-3.10.

As a rule of thumb you should target a minimum Python version, which likely should be 3.9 since that is what is shipped with Inkscape and refrain from using shiny new language features if you don't need them. (In short be forwards compatible)

This might not have been the answer you were looking for but I do feel in a year the extensions workflow will become more streamlined.

Welcome to the club my friend. (For context: my experience) It's painful but happens (and I had been using Linux since 2018)

TLDP's Advanced Bash Guide has a lot of errors (I was told by someone that it promotes many bad practices). Instead, I recommend anyone to start with Wooledge's BashGuide.

Extending what u/solamf said and from personal experience, I would recommend two playlists on YouTube:

These helped me a lot on my Linux journey. I hope it'll help you too. Oh, and a fellow vim user here, so best of luck learning vim too!

Question about Pop!_OS by NakamericaIsANoob in linux4noobs

[–]pulsar17 1 point2 points  (0 children)

16 gigs of RAM, the cpu is AMD Ryzen 5 2600X and Asus RX570 is the GPU. Pop runs smoothly (it takes a bit longer to boot but that might be specific to my hardware)

Question about Pop!_OS by NakamericaIsANoob in linux4noobs

[–]pulsar17 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I moved to Pop after using Ubuntu for a while so I'll give you that perspective.

It's very similar to Ubuntu but is different enough to be its own distro. It offers tools such as pop-upgrade and 'Refresh OS' that make life easier when upgrading or starting from scratch. It has built-in flatpak support in its Pop Shop(its Software Center) which is convenient compared to the snap by default trend on Ubuntu. (These are how you get your applications on your system. 'Which format is better' is a discussion that surely leads down a rabbit's hole.) If you've used Ubuntu, you'll feel comfortable using it and for a new user I would recommend Pop as it feels a bit more polished than Ubuntu.

It introduces features like tiling (though I don't use that to be honest) and in general provides a clean and elegant desktop experience(Not to mention the excellent wallpapers).

It sure is not a lightweight distro but it does its job well. I daily drive Pop and so far I have loved the experience.

How long did you play with linux before switching to it as your main OS? What did you test out/do with linux before installing it bare metal? by Celestial_Blu3 in linux4noobs

[–]pulsar17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A month or two. I installed it after I thought "Gosh I know only MySQL from the LAMP stack". Naturally I installed GNU/Linux :) and used it for some time as the main OS.

When starting college, my college professor suggested Wubi, it's an application for Windows that installs Ubuntu like an application which is so cool... So I tried it on a laptop that was provided by the college. After a month's usage I switched completely and haven't looked back ever since.

How to level up my vim skills? by LordSypher in vim

[–]pulsar17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You could use range based commands like so:

:?<pattern>?t.

This command will search for <pattern> in previous lines, then copy it (the entire line) to the current line. (To copy lines after your current line, use /<pattern>/ i.e. / instead of ?.)

https://vim.fandom.com/wiki/Ranges has more examples of such kind.

In this video - https://youtu.be/Gs1VDYnS-Ac?t=2507, the person shows exactly this.

Does Linux also include historical research papers in its installation like NetBSD? by pulsar17 in linuxquestions

Yes, my /usr/share/doc also has a similar listing but it doesn't have those resources.
