Once again agreed, but there is always merit in the growth period where user-interests and mod-interests are aligned to facilitate open and honest discussion before the platform becomes enshittified as you suggest. It’s one of the reasons why many of us left reddit for greener pastures.

I believe we are still in this beneficial growth period, and that lemmy still has some time before the community saturates in its usefulness, but if you think that is not the case then no one should stop you from seeking other places to get good content.

I agree, you could ask a search engine which is gamed to give you the most promoted result instead of the best one, or you could indeed ask an AI which is trained to give you an aesthetically pleasing answer that may or may not be without substance…

More simply, you could just reach out to the wider community and get a reasonably up-to-date answer with an easy back and forth from others in the same situation without any worry about nefarious incentives.

I guess it depends on how you measure what a good and trustworthy answer is.

It does stimulate discussion, and as someone who has passively thought about this problem in tmux, but not actively tried to fix it, OP has enriched my life with their post.

The snark really isn’t that warranted

Uhh… these projects are the backbone of the free and modern web. How is less funding a good thing?

It might have to do with your I2C? Install ddcutil and tell us what it detects

Makes sense, I just dont quite get what the compositor does in the case of two videos being played simulatanously both with vastly different profiles (e.g. one mostly red, one mostly blue).

Does the compositor then do correction on a per-window basis, or it just averages across the whole screen. This question is likely outside of the scope of the PR

I guess related to the MPV post. From what I understand wp_color_manager_v1 essentially tells a window manager what colorspace its outputting (via dbus?) so that the window manager can make (realtime?) color corrections.

Trying to think of a use case… maybe if you have a really red video scene, your window manager can normalise that so you can see the different shades of red better. Am I even close?

I checked out the PR but I’m not sure what this means

I was gonna say, really? AI to parse a timeline? Overkill

We should make it April 30th, because that way if no one receives their propers, then the developers can go on the strike the day after.

I use wezterm, and like the edit mode and the window splitting, but it’s very much designed for vim users and as an emacs nerf herder I just can’t seem to find my home

Its just easy to write super-optimised code snippets in without having to break out into assembly.

When you download R, youre downloading C++/C and Fortran

You mean an infinite polyhedron? Are you out of your mind?

Very good shout on last – I see the boot up and power down states very nicely described there. Sadly, no hibernate info is there, so I would still need to check journalctl for that info

It can report just before it’s shutting down. Hell, if I run shutdown -P 20:00 "OH WE GOIN DOWN" you bet your ass that I will get a wall message on every tty with that message at 8pm.

I’m just wondering how to reliably capture the shutdown messages without having to scan the entire system log. I just assumed that there would be one service file that I would have to check for these types of events, but apparently the best bet I have is the TLP service daemon which typically only runs on laptops.

I have to admit, PDF parsing being such a hot and profitable topic in computer science was really something I never saw coming.

PDFs? The things you can select text from? And when not, there’s decent OCR? And when not, you just ask the person to send you an email or a word doc?

It sounds like LLMs are looking for a new unpolluted source of historical data that they can learn from, and this source exists in the form of old scanned-in paper documents. That’s the only reason I can fathom as to why this is such a big thing now.

Hmm! I never considered checking to see what loginctl was doing

And yep I think you’re right, the most portable way of doing this is to maybe write my own service with hooks for OnBoot OnShutdown OnSleep OnWake (if that’s a systemctl hook…)

I see thanks

I guess uptime monitoring of any host, with specific timestamps for when the system is suspended/resumed.
(Yes I understand that a server ideally shouldn’t sleep)
