Piwigo does have a plugin for video upload and playback, and it looks like Live Photos are WIP or at least available through the website, not the app. There are some other neat plugins too like map/geotag support.

The app’s upload functionality can work well for backups too; it isn’t automatic, but it does support batch/folder uploads and remembering which photos you’ve already uploaded.

At that point I would just use std::span if you can, then you also get the standard container/iterator interfaces for free.

No it’s not.

1 in 10 Americans think rust is a good thing.

Honestly, I would argue that git submodule should count as a package manager. I simply list out the repos I want to pull in and update them as needed.

I can see the usability of this depending on the application though. My work is primarily in embedded; I only ever need to pull in a handful of small libraries.

Pretty sure I read before that those counts do not include federated instances and only represent user/subscriber count on the instance you’re viewing from.

Intrigued by the asterisk on Slackware…

Why is this a screenshot? Couldn’t you have just copied the text?

Gen Z here. Oldest computer I remember my family having was an XP tower, a Dell Dimension.

I studied computer engineering, and that interest pulled me into retro tech. I love seeing what older hardware is capable of — I’ve got a Pentium laptop that can load old Reddit and stream music over wifi.

There’s a trove of old hardware and software to dig through too with so many unique odds and ends. History and tech worth preserving. One of my favorite projects so far was doing some programming challenges in BASIC on an Apple II. Anything old-tech is fun to me :)

I can never stick with gnome/gtk because it’s been impossible for me to get a consistent theme/look across my apps.

Newer gnome/gtk has its DPI jacked so that the title bar, buttons, etc. are far too huge for my desktop or laptop, with the only fix being to tinker with the theme config files. Older gnome apps don’t have this issue, but their themes are incompatible so good luck finding a matching theme pair. Non-GTK apps would get stuck with the newer title bar — I swear it would be >100px tall. And doesn’t gnome/gtk 4 have an even newer theme interface that’s incompatible with 2/3?

I’ve since moved to openbox and tiling managers; they actually bother to get this right.

Not only are these things safe, but they’re also key to the efficiency of cycling. Cycling would replace driving if it were more attractive and efficient, but that won’t be the case if cyclists have to act like they’re driving cars.

J’ai peur que je suis un intrus… J’habite au Toronto en Canada. J’apprend le français depuis cinq ans, mais je besoin de practique avec la interprétation et la conversation. Parce que je suis un redditeur j’ai été lire le r/français, maintenant je lis le c/français.

Ceci mon première commentaire dans la communauté, donc salut! Peut-être je participerai plus dans l’avenir…

I think coastal New England has a lot of potential, specifically Portland Maine, Portsmouth NH, and Boston.

I lived in Portland for four years: its downtown is very walkable/bike-able, they have decent transit options (buses, Amtrak, airport), and seem to care about growth towards people/pedestrian-friendly designs. They’ve been building up their bike lanes, running a bike sharing program in the non-winter months, and are starting to construct denser housing. If I had to settle in the U.S. somewhere, I would personally choose here.

Portsmouth has a smaller downtown, but its also very welcoming to pedestrians. I’m confident they’ll continue in the right direction too.

Boston’s much larger than either of these, though that comes with strong public transit through bus, train, etc. A better choice if you like big cities.

I recently got a Canon Pixma G3060 series printer. It’s one of those ink tank ones, so getting refills is no problem. It cost $300 CAD and came with ink bottles for ~7000 pages of printing; a pretty good deal if you’re printing often. I couldn’t find a good laser printer at this price point, certainly not a color one.

Linux works great with it once it’s set up, no proprietary drivers or extra junk. CUPS does wireless printing just fine, and I can use Xsane to scan documents too.
