A few days ago, my groovebox, the #SynthstromDeluge, running the new and awesome community-built firmware, crashed, which was very cool.
Not that it crashed, but what happened next: It displayed a colorful pattern on its pads.
That's a stack trace. It's listing the last steps the code made before crashing. The devs are have asked to be sent photos of these, to help them find bugs.
I've pasted it on Discord, and there's a _bot_ that recognizes these images and decodes them into addresses!
I checked because of this meme, proves true yet again.
The list btw: https://repology.org/repositories/statistics/newest
@nixCraft taking away hard work and jobs is always a net positive, the fetishising of labour needs to stop. If steam machines were invented today y'all would be crying about them taking away hard work from manual laborers.
That's the point. Work is something that is done because it's needed, not because it's wanted. The moment you want to stop automating your work because that would leave you without it you're no longer a worker that provides needed services, you're holding the society hostage to still pay you.
@freemo for WM I've been using Plasma's Wayland session for way over a year too, I adapted PipeWire early though and had no problems with screenshots or the like, only rare WM crashes and restarts. But these gradually stopped over updates and now I haven't had a problem for months now, maybe even half a year.
The fact that SDDM still used X and so my system still autostarted it just to display the login manager which would then launch a wayland session was a bit annoying though. Especially since X would often refuse to shut down gracefully alongside the rest of the system and slowed down any reboots by the 1m30s of systemd being patient before shooting it in the head.
It seems that the switch of SDDM to wayland worked and I'm now finally writing this from a system with no native X server running anywhere, only XWayland inside of my Plasma session.
Nice.
@freemo fingers crossed for the process to be as painless as possible lol
@nixCraft this was annoying to me when an install created a stupidly small boot partition that was filling up with with a few kernels+initramfs and whatever system I had at the time tried to keep more.

@icedquinn it's hilarious when they step one foot into the base and 10+ fairly powerful pals just delete them from existence

@icedquinn @coolboymew @mangeurdenuage don't mind me, just shilling Julia, which has macros written in Julia

I am starting to see the frustrations with gnome. Looking for "how do I do X" and clicking on forums I will see multi year long threads invariably filled with "how do I do X" followed by "update 2018 method no longer works does anybody know how to do it now" "update 2019 method no longer works does anybody know what's going on" "update 2020, 2019 method has made my computer unbootable what do I do"
@icedquinn *all four are written in Julia, I hope qoto gets edit in place capabilities soon.
@icedquinn wait, no, there's a fifth repository, abandoned JS project written when I didn't know anything about JS, in global scope, without using any ES6 features, and honestly I'm afraid to look at just how bad it is.
First of those jobs was mostly for JS.
@icedquinn I have my github linked in my CV, where I have four repositories, of which three are part of a single project, horribly unfinished, written poorly and abandoned, and one is a 73 line script for assigning song metadata based on filenames and directory structure. All three are written in Julia. Using that CV (in various versions) I got two jobs as an engineer and quite a few interviews in between, none of which were in any form related to Julia which I have yet to use in a professional context.
I don't think a single person looked further than "yup, it exists and has some repos".
@icedquinn it's still wild to me how the US, a younger nation not bound by the old traditions and laws, ended up being more puritan and traditionalist than the countries its people originally came from. I guess that's what you get when a large portion of the colonisers are religions nuts Europeans were glad to see fuck off though.
@moffintosh @FourOh-LLC @icedquinn words can hardly describe the irony of you using the word "blabber" after posting almost exclusively commie word salad.
