  • [river+kwm] testing the new waters

    Jump

  • I looked for something that was similar to river-classic, kwm seemed the most mature one, but they're all very young of course. it's heavily inspired on dwm (includes a similar bar too) and the the developer is quite responsive. I do 'miss' the riverctl-based way of configuration which I liked in river-classic, I believe only zrwm (https://sr.ht/~zuki/zrwm/) currently does that. I haven't tried them all yet as some lacked features I need/want.

  • Yes, it's just sway

  • has your YouTube consumption decreased after implementing the "no history, no recommendations" feature?

    Jump

  • I've been using RSS feeds for youtube channels for a few years. I don't visit the site if I can help it, I don't login, I don't "like & subscribe", I don't see any clickbait thumbnails and most important: I don't see any ads. Just newsboat & mpv.

  • Any sci-fi with aliens where humans are not the less advanced race?

    Jump

  • Good recommendation indeed, the zones of thought are awesome. One of my all time favourites!

  • [Request] lightweight distro

  • I'd go for Alpine Linux in such case.

  • Any decent voice typing options for Linux?

  • You may want to check out numen, targeted towards power-users.

  • Non-US sci-fi recommendations?

    Jump

  • I'll interpret non-US a bit broader as non-English. English is hugely dominant in scifi so it's often hard to find good books in other languages. I'd also love to hear the recommendations of others too! A few I read:

  • Question for software developers: how do you organize your To Do list at work?

    Jump

  • I'm using todo.txt, which is a basic plain text file following a simple syntax. I added various extensions to work with this: todo.txt-more, which does things like:

    • make things accessible through a simple menu (dmenu/bemenu/rofi) system.
    • time tracking functions
    • synchronisation with github issues and/or e-mail

    Jump

  • Nice, RSS is great indeed. I use it extensively as well, but I didn't even realize it was a thing people ran as a service on a server. I hadn't heard of FreshRSS etc. I personally just run newsboat from my desktop/laptop, even my phone if need be.

  • What languages do you speak? What languages are you learning?

    Jump

  • You may have to buy the necessary brain upgrade from your brain dealer, but generally multiple languages fit yeah 😉 It may get a bit confusing if they're very similar languages though, although I also find that that may help in retention of vocabulary.

  • What languages do you speak? What languages are you learning?

    Jump

  • To set the right example:

    I speak dutch (native); english (fluent); german, spanish, portuguese, french, esperanto (good); italian (adequate); russian (slightly below adequate); mandarin chinese (basic); arabic (very poorly)

    I'm learning mostly russian and chinese, for many years already, but not in any formal setting and with for many years already. I like reading books in the other languages to keep them up.
