@Conan_Kudo This was just a shock for me because it did not match my typical RH expectations. It's exactly like someone had made a fake RH application that is actually ransomware 😅

The best thing that happened to Servo in its history was most likely being orphaned from Mozilla.

The world needs "Linux of Web Engines" because while kernel runs the machinery, web is the interface that users interact with. Then both ends are covered and governed.

#servo #linux #mozilla

@Conan_Kudo I hope some smart person some day does Electron runtime based on Servo. It could make it sleeker given how well-constructed GPU pipeline it has.

@Conan_Kudo Yeah, it was like stereotypical enterprise GUI :-) Would make sense if it was CISCO Podman Desktop... The very first question you get ask is query to enable Telemetry...

Tried Podman Desktop by Red Hat as it was first monitor I found.

It's IMHO fucking horrible. Looks bad and a complete mess, which is pretty relevant attribute for that purpose. I mean the use and purpose is to visualize the situation, right?

This feels much more sane GUI option: https://github.com/marhkb/pods

If I feel bad, I always look at what @servo has been doing lately. Usually it's like "we leveled up the performance" or "we are in par with CSS" and similar. Really happy to see how things are going for that project. Looks like a healthy open source community to me!

@pinkforest @Kijewski My Rust "hate feedback" when it comes to kernel has been lately like:

1. "even if it is Rust we love also first in class commit messages"
2. "even if it is Rust I still need to be able to test this, not just compile"

I love Rust too but I still also love the best practices if of the ancient era :-) I commit to yelling on these until they start to be the status quo... It's called governance 🕶

@pinkforest It's like "LaTeX for engineers"

Word is for managers, LaTeX is for scientists and there has been an empty "for Engineers" slot to fill up until Typst came out :-)

It also has Beamer alike package called Polylux: https://github.com/polylux-typ/polylux

For me this was love at first sight at least.

I do use sometimes AI in a browser.

I use it by asking it to write for me a summary that I can put then to hackmd. For instance, "write me summary of this or that NixOS attribute and create a markdown document". Asking it write code takes more time because it is never fully what I expect. By writing a summary of option I gain understanding of the topic and learn something.

This way I save tons of times and AI provides me food for mind. I'm always critical but never a denialist :-)

... and I knowingly write my code slow. Never used even the old school auto-complete because it was already a fucking distraction.

I've read a few times that "times were better when people used just Stack Overflow".

I never even fully got on board for that era and I still have a job...

I read books.

The smallest-ever force field map of nature.

Physicists have mapped the forces acting inside a , showing in unprecedented detail how —the tiny within—respond when hit by high-energy .

The new result breaks down and into a fine grid, allowing simulating how the strong force—the fundamental interaction that binds quarks into and —varies across different regions inside the proton.

With a simple `podman login` and `podman push` you can push containers from your local machine to your instance, so you can use said containers on other machines as Forgejo also is an OCI-compliant container registry :) And now you can use these containers to build even more software with forgejo Actions and don't worry about Docker limiting traffic from their registry ;)

I used Foot almost exactly a year before this :-) Kitty image protocol is the thing in this w/o having to use Kitty (which I dislike).

Now I tried Ghostty for the first time and IBM Plex looks amazing on it ;-)

So i guess it is a switch...
