@fedilab@toot.fedilab.app on android.

It's feature-packed. The only thing missing is the ability to click on gemini:// links. (Or is that a server-side bug?)

@jameschip
Using my fork of scenes and screen, I made a virtual shared whiteboard for my coworkers to collaborate with.

paste.sr.ht/~earboxer/b035d2d1

Thanks for the little things!

Anybody interested in a user-friendly editable on ?

I've written the first two pages, please see
gemini://wiki.zachdecook.com

Powered by lists.sr.ht and updated every ten minutes by a crude cron job script. (No conflict resolution yet, but all changes are saved in the email list, so nothing is lost).

@lunduke
Thanks for responding! I don't follow the tracking argument... can you elaborate?

@sir
Not sure if it's the norm, but it is very common.
Though I've found that many have different creative endeavors which I might not have noticed, as they're so different from my own.

Related: I don't trick Vim out to be an IDE-alike, and neither should you. I use mostly vanilla Vim:

git.sr.ht/~sircmpwn/dotfiles/t

I use a second terminal and shell commands to do various tasks I might ask of an IDE, such as building the software, finding compile errors, bulk find or bulk replace, using tools like grep, sed, awk, make, etc. This approach is very flexible - almost any task can performed and almost any question answered without having to use rails laid down by IDE designers - but also practical, because they can be turned into re-usable scripts.

Good reference if you lack shell proficiency:

shellhaters.org/

@purism I was unable to find the place where you explain how that funding will be used (allocating internal developer time to work on the apps, paying upstream developers…). Can you point me to that page?

@sir
When people say "search engine", do they mean the engine, the engine + web index + frontend, or another thing masquerading as a search engine?

@sir
manticoresearch.com/
Open source search engine. (we use this at work with millions of records in our index)

@govynnus
That's nice. I still have my Nexus 5, but without a working OS. One time early 2019 flashing pmOS failed; someone on the internet suggested that maybe my flash memory went bad 😞

@dctrud@mastodon.social
That's the nature of things.
We should all set up personal archive proxies like mozz.us:1966 to keep pages from getting lost (or inaccessible during server maintenance).

@fsf
Please don't use URL shortened links on the fediverse. They give a worse experience when using a dedicated app, and on most servers, they don't even save you any characters off your character limit.
(It's almost as if you're just posting them so you can track us).

@slisne
Isn't there some sense of 'compiling' regular expressions? I've seen some regex-like things in C(++ actually). It's very dense, but readable, and reasonably modifiable.

Santa doesn't get anybody presents because he's been dead for over 1600 years. If that ruins Christmas for anyone, they probably don't understand what it's really all about.

@sir
To help the people who might not be that good at jumping in, would it be an appropriate use of mailing-list space to say "hey, I think the bug is on line XXX, if you want to fix it".
