Happened to me too, I was so confused. I hope it is a bug… EDIT: Found the report: https://gitlab.com/relan/fennecbuild/-/issues?show=eyJpaWQiOiIxMjAiLCJmdWxsX3BhdGgiOiJyZWxhbi9mZW5uZWNidWlsZCIsImlkIjoxNjk5MTU5NTd9

Ah I see, haven’t been on “stable” distros for a long time so I wasn’t affected. I’ve enjoyed the good support and the video stuff is definitely nice. On the AMD side, still no idea how to encode or decode anything on my Framework 16, meanwhile Intel is acing it.

Hmm, I run an Arc GPU at work without any issues. Just using plain mesa on NixOS. The Intel devs were quite responsive when we ran into issues as well.

Enjoyed the article but augh that sticky banner at the top that follows as I scroll took up 30% of my reading space. Gave up halfway through to enable reader mode on Firefox mobile…

omg I totally accidentally enabled this

I’d bother removing it but it’s kinda funny to get an email reprimanding me when I ctrl+c out of a sudo command I mistyped, and maybe it will serve as a warning if it gets compromised :p

Bravo la France ! Here’s to hoping more cities follow suit :)

Very cool! Added the RSS.

Hmm no, I haven’t had this issue. Tempo works fine for me, it’s been mostly bug-free except for a few oversights:

• search doesn’t work offline
• can’t play AAC files
• can’t skip songs via my Pebble watch

I’m (still) on a Pixel 3a, running LineageOS, in case that matters.

I did use Feishin for a while, it’s an excellent music player but unfortunately not a native program. I might switch back to it from Tauon though, as actually playing the whole song before going to the next is a pretty nice upgrade hehe

It looks really good indeed, and I don’t mind at all to pay for apps (I pay for FairEmail)… however it is very strange for me to add a nonfree app to the list I use every day… everything else is open source.

I currently host Navidrome, which has an okay web player. On Android I use “Tempo” (though it is unmaintained) to connect to it, and on Linux I use Tauon (though it has very poor playback). I could not find a native Linux client that is not buggy unfortunately, so I’m also on the lookout for better solutions! I’m not familiar with the device you are talking about but every client I tried supports MPRIS, which are the regular media controls that can be used via the playerctl command, so you should be able to hook things up that way.

I don’t have any advice to give but I want to thank you for considering this angle while building the website.

Thanks. I’ve successfully “upstreamed” some of my patches to some courses, but sadly still most of the education is Visual Studio-based. It’s good to see more people in the new years contacting me after asking teachers about Linux and being given my name for help, but of course I want this to be a base part of the curriculum!

I did a bachelor of videogame programming in Belgium 99% on Linux (minus exams), but it was definitely a huge struggle. All the courses and assignments were Windows-only, and 90%-ish required Visual Studio (non-Code) and Windows-only libraries like DirectX or Win32. I got by writing my own tooling to auto-convert these to CMake projects and convincing each teacher to allow me to hand in CMake projects. I wrote SDL backends for most of the win32 assignments, falling back on clang’s excellent cross-compiling for stuff that requires e.g Windows.h. I wrote a blog post about this: https://blog.allpurposem.at/adventures-cross-compiling-a-windows-game-engine And using e.g DirectX natively on Linux, easier than expected: https://blog.allpurposem.at/directx

I also wrote a small wiki on my general experience + a summary of courses and main problems encountered… Windows was non-negotiable during exams: https://dae-linux.allpurposem.at/ I maintain tools, converted assignments, and information on this for future students who want to attempt something like me, but it’s hard to recommend the Linux challenge if you are totally new to programming!

Hope some of this is helpful!

This is very cool! I’ll definitely use it if it gets a Nix package.

Have you had a bad experience with canned peaches? I volunteered at a food bank a while back and we each had our station and gave out what people asked from that category (types of bread, fruits, etc). I don’t recall seeing canned peaches or folks’ reaction to them, but I’ll be on the lookout next time!

Darn. I recall reading good articles from some of these publications in the past. Shame…

This article reads like satire… it’s sentence after sentence of “and I did it using one of the [best office chairs]” which is a link to some review by themselves. Every bit mentioned had an affiliate link and there wasn’t an actual review of what the experience (software, setup, visual fidelity) is like??

It’s an ordinary consumer wifi 4 router (by a company named Renkforce). I was able to use WDS with it previously, but I haven’t got it working since flashing openwrt, which is why I was trying relayd. A hotspot from my phone works (but is really slow obviously). I suspect something is wrong with my interface or firewall setup, given the colors of the interfaces.

I’ve tried to match your setup, but to no avail.

Interfaces:

lan

Static address (192.168.2.1) Firewall zone: lan

wwan

Static address (192.168.0.211) Device: phy0-sta0 (listed as the client in the dropdown) Gateway: 192.168.0.1 Use custom DNS servers: 1.1.1.1 (using root router’s IP causes DNS to stop working) Firewall zone: WLAN

repeater_bridge

Relay bridge Relay between: lan wwan Firewall zone: unspecified

Firewall zones: lan ⇒ WLAN accept accept accept WLAN ⇒ lan accept accept accept

With this, I am able to ping google.com from a openwrt ssh session, but not my laptop connected w/ ethernet (and a static ip). In the interfaces list, lan is green, repeater_bridge is grey, and wwan is red. I tried running /etc/init.d/firewall stop but still no luck.
