  • They have partnered with a (secret for now) hardware vendor so we should have other options in the future.

  • It works well for me. I did hear that there was bad support for baking apps but they seem to work fine.

    I have had trouble with ride hailing apps as they seem to use googles integrity API.

  • Look at how many actual projects are using dioxus vs leptos. I believe some. Of the projects listed on the dioxis website are no longer maintained.

  • Thank you for the recommendation. I have been wanting to try out the FUTO apps (which grayjay) for a while but couldn't find it on f-droid. It looks like they have their own repo which you need to add.

    Just got grayjay downloaded and it is so good!

  • Why can't countries with vast deserts make solar farms to power the world?

    Jump

  • Another reason no one else has mentioned yet is that countries want to have control over their own power generation. If you're power is all generated in another country then it can potentially be turned off by another country.

  • Good audiobooks

    Jump

  • Before the recs I just want to shout out libro.FM - they sell audiobooks and donate half of the profits to independent book stores.

    Classic sci fi:

    • The dispossessed - also the left hand of darkness (which is meant to be good buy Inhavent read)
    • Foundation series
    • permutation city

    I think the more modern sci fi is good too so I will give you some recommendations anyway:

    • Project Hail Mary - mentioned by other commenters, really good
    • Children of time - first and best of a series, really good
    • Expanse - series of books set in the near future, hard sci fi and a bit of space opera
    • Red rising - a space opera a bit like a fantasy book in a sci fi setting
    • Murderbot - series with a bit more more comed, very entertaining and easy to get into

  • Pop!_OS 24.04 Beta Along With COSMIC Desktop Beta In Late September

    Jump

  • From what I remember they were using GNOME for pop os with some custom addons they had made (for example a tiling addon). GNOME updates will sometimes break addons and I think the pop os people got tired of this.

    I actually really liked the addon as it would help you have a workflow closer to a tiling window manager.

    So they are creating a DE with the features they think are important (tiling, performance, others) in mind from the start. I like the idea of this as I don't want to commit to installing 100's of tools for a tiling window manager like hyprland but I do want the benefits of tiling.

    Also it's written in rust which implies performance and security.

  • Coders or lemmy, what editors do you use? Is it worth learning a new one?

    Jump

  • Ahhh nice, I have thought about trying out Kakoune as it supports plugins. Do you use many plugins/find them useful?

    Helix does have a pipe command also.

    Jump

  • Yeah I agree, I like that aspect too!

  • I use Helix

    TLDR: Yes I think helix is worth trying out. It has some missing features but it is an amazing piece of software.

    Yes I use helix daily. It is very fun to use and you can do many things faster. It is particularly good when navigating a (large) codebase you know fairly well. You are able to jump around and find/edit relevant code very quickly.

    Compared to vs code:

    • it is much faster and more minimal
    • It might be harder to get things up and running than in vs code, e.g. to get auto-completion working in helix you need to have the LSP for that language installed. It can be a bit confusing if you have never done it before but it is easy once you have done it a few times.

    Compared to neovim I think it is:

    • easier to learn
    • slightly faster - especially with large files
    • you will have a much smaller/simpler configuration. AFAIK Helix has more features working out of the box than neovim (file picker, lsp support ect) and needs less configuration to get things to a workable state.

    The downside of helix compared to both neovim and vscode is that it does not have plugin support yet so you will need to use other tools in combination with it to get an equivalent experience. Here are some tools that are commonly used with helix:

    Helix really shines when:

    • performance matters - I have edited files with millions of lines and had no trouble on codebases where my colleagues IDE's become very slow.
    • You want to use multiple cursors at times
    • You want a simple or no configuration
    • It is taking too long to learn the vim keybindings - vim keybindings are more concise but less intuitive and harder to learn

    I recommend you use the tutor (hx --tutor) for a few minutes each day to learn the keybidings.
