@gemlog Can't you do that with normal compose key magic? 🤔
Then there's wtype — as the name implies, it just "types" any character (or string of them) you want.
I have two dead keys on one of my computers and I just bound two unused ones to a short script that uses wtype to output the required letter depending on current layout (I parse the json output of "swaymsg -t get_inputs input" to figure that out).

@adiz In the city they are, even from pedestrian's perspective. No one seems to get my hate towards them — yes, I want to be able to walk around with my headphones on and feel safe, what's wrong with that?
I have nothing against cycling in the country, I even do it myself 😄
Odd thing is, now we have these electric scooters (or whatever they are called) everywhere and everyone seems to agree on hating them — but it's literally the same, cyclists were just as bad at using brakes.

@thatguyoverthere Exactly! But on some of my computers the hostname (and username) are in dwm's bar and as the line updating it is run from .xinitrc, I can't just kill that process and start it again, altering it would requite restarting the session. Maybe I can just change it with xsetroot and have a few seconds to make the screenshot, but anyway — it's a hassle and I'm like: "Okay, not now, maybe next time" 🤣

@theorytoe @david

@theorytoe @david Sometimes I think to myself: maybe I'm too paranoid, not partaking in screenshot threads just because my screenshots contain my hostname (even though it's usually the model of the fscking computer)?
But then I think: nah, that's just good practice 🤪

> PCOfficina sets what might seem like some quite high bars for the equipment that it refurbishes and issues. Its minimum spec is a Core i3 processor or equivalent, eight gigs of ram, and a 128GB SATA drive – ideally an SSD

Damn, most computers I still find usable do not even meet their spec to be considered 'trashware' 😂

@coolboymew I hope she at least doesn't mind her husband playing around with Python from time to time 🤭

@shibao @theorytoe Via a crontab — to not get these messages at all 😁

@AmigaBoing Used to love that game. Especially the cannonball — on every level you have to find the cannon ball, once you do it, you're safe — you could throw it at enemies and it bounced back so you could use it again. I think you could also use it to jump higher by jumping on top of it 🤔
I played the PC version though.

В принципе, Кац не соврал, рыба действительно была символом Христа в раннем христианстве: pravoslavie.ru/7028.html
Но ведь Кац всегда так делает — вместе с очевидными вещами, с которыми не поспоришь, впаривает какую-то дичь 😅

@MirceaKitsune GDPR was good too. Chat law was bad though, not sure if that was passed. Unifying the chargers was also a EU thing AFAIR. I don't think that it's a miracle, EU looks like the only entity doing good things for us.

Again, it wasn't a non-aggression pact, it was a *friendship* treaty😂
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/German–S
Criticize the West all you want — you can do that without whitewashing Stalin. Calling Boundary and Friendship Treaty — that's the original name of what was signed a week later in addition to M-R pact, a non-aggression pact definitely looks like an attempt to "give it a proper spin". Don't do that if you want someone to change his mind and not only appease those who already agree with you.

@mjdxp curl is banned in 15 states, most TUI apps are also schedule II. There is this shit they call "top", pretty popular among teenagers, they obtain it illegally from unsigned repos 😱

@Dcgirl That's not a separate genre, more like a common theme to all of them 😆

@thor

@adiz It is 😂
I would be very much surprised if that was true.
My mom is there now, but just as a tourist and that is just a weird coincidence.

@stereo I didn't know that, It's hilarious! And kinda makes sense.
Well, except for top shelf stuff like Ampere Altra 😄

@stereo Mine even has a 3G modem built-in and I have a SIM-card with unlimited, albeit slow, data plan. Also even with its battery at only half of its original capacity, I can still get 3 hours of juice out of it — I'm pretty sure I'll find uses for it. The only problem, like I said, suspend to RAM is bugged, it used to work with Linux 5.4 kernels, but it would be real nice to get it to work with at least 6.1 ones.
