Does anyone use a phone without a protective case? in c/nostupidquestions@lemmy.world
[–] paequ2@lemmy.today 20 points 21 hours ago* (last edited 21 hours ago)

I don't use a phone case. I already think phones are too big. Adding a case makes the phone even bigger and even bulkier. I'm usually pretty good at not dropping my phone.

Yes, usually, because I actually did drop it recently. 😅 Although, the screen is fine. It just has a little love tap on the corner. It's got character now. It's got the "worn" look.

I think we’re forgetting the basic fact that we make music because we want to.

I also want a Linux (not Android) phone. Are those stable yet?

Why is your open source project still hosted on GitHub? in c/opensource@programming.dev
[–] paequ2@lemmy.today 10 points 1 week ago (2 children)

I only have 1 project left on GitHub. It's a tiiiiny bit popular. Not huge, but I have a decent amount of stars on it. I know some people use it in automated work flows.

I've actually been thinking about how to get it off GitHub for a while now. Any tips? Ideally without breaking everyone and pissing everyone off? Or at least with minimal disruption...

To "waffle" comes from the 1956 movie Archie and the Waffle House. It's a reference how the main character Archie famously ate a giant stack of waffles and became a town hero.

Introduction to the Vala programming language in c/gnome_dev@programming.dev

Yeah, totally agree. I felt a little weird pasting that, but that's what the introduction paragraph says. 🤷‍♂️

Introduction to the Vala programming language (docs.vala.dev)
 

Vala is a new programming language that allows modern programming techniques to be used to write applications that run on the GNOME runtime libraries, particularly GLib and GObject. This platform has long provided a very complete programming environment, with such features as a dynamic type system and assisted memory management.

PSA: How to paste large amounts of text in Vim (lemmy.today)
 

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/18258561/pasting-a-huge-amount-of-text-into-vim-is-slow/79633075

I recently ran into this. I didn't realize that the swpfile slowed down pastes.

I was trying to paste 50kb of text in Vim, but it kept getting stuck and I had to kill -9 it.

But, then I ran :set noswapfile and the paste was instant! TIL!

InlineStyle, open fediverse based cloud (www.inlinestyle.it)
 

cross-posted from: https://lemmy.world/post/29544013

Hey folks, We have been working on a project called InlineStyle

A European, open-source, fediverse based alternative to the Google ecosystem.

It’s a single platform with these services:

  • 📧 Email address @inlinestyle.it
  • 📹 Video sharing via PeerTube
  • 🎵 Music streaming with Funkwhale
  • 📝 Docs and Drive via Collabora/NextCloud
  • 📒 Markdown based notes
  • 🎮 Browser-based FOSS games (Celeste Classic, Tyrian, SuperTux, etc.)
  • 🌍 Static personal site hosting

All hosted in Europe. No telemetry, no ads, no corporate BS.

It’s not a startup pitch, just something we built because we got tired of being locked in.

The idea is to keep it sustainable with a simple support plan (€1.90/month) that unlocks upload features and personal email/webspace. Free tier available too, no login needed to browse.

🔗 https://www.inlinestyle.it/

🔗 https://mastodon.social/@inlinestyle

Would love your thoughts. What should I improve? What’s missing for you to consider switching?

Our goal is to try to build a real #DeGoogle fediverse based path that doesn’t feel like a downgrade. It will take time, but we are willing to try and stay committed to the mission.
