@ddevault is great! It compiled in under 9 seconds (12 times faster than gcc).
Runtime comparison, it had about 75% performance.

I'll definitely be using this for development on the pinephone (aarch64).

Made my own recipe for tonight. (Rather than following some recipe online).
"Try not to curdle the eggnog. After you've curdled it, blend until consistent." 😅 If it's any good, maybe I'll share it.

@craftyguy should we instead distribute our malware with instructions to add our own key for easier updates?

@jameschip Can someone hurry up and make a POSIX-compliant fish-inspired shell?

@arlequin @PINE64 In my experience, applications run similarly across different environments (performance-wise). In SXMO with sway (SWMO), the display scaling is set for the whole desktop, rather than per-application as phosh does. In SXMO/dwm (xorg rather than wayland), scaling probably results in pixelation, so you'd probably config a scale factor of 1.

> While is clearly the most popular UI across the board, it came as a genuine surprise to me how popular and SWMO are in general and on more specifically. I didn’t expect such a complex and unorthodox UI to gather such a following in a relatively short period of time. But to be clear, I think this is great. We also shouldn’t overlook that a sizable portion of respondents is indifferent to which UI they use as long as the experience is solid.

PinePhone community poll results are now available. Thank you to all those who took part in the questionnaire! pine64.org/2022/01/31/pinephon

Today, I learned how to leave a channel in : You just type /PART

Also, does anybody else like the alternative ? I'm tired of being all alone in at oftc.net (occasionally, someone will join, message, and part while I'm away).

Checking out a cool open source project, I notice the author's email domain is unfamiliar.

...2 minutes later "I should learn Russian"

@ifixcoinops @djsundog @kelbot Is this actually useful at that zoom level? Do you use the keyboard with your thumbs, or fingers at arms-length? I think I have great eyesight, but I still like the fonts pretty big with the device 1 foot away from my face.

okay, now my #pinePDA is running sxmo since @kelbot gave me the magic swipe gesture to make it go landscape.

multiple workspaces, the toot-lab in one via firefox in fullscreen mode and zoom at 50%, and this is quite the little pocket computer!

Posted an update on gemini, featuring and other such developments.

I usually publish an update on my gemini capsule on the 22nd each month, but it'll be late this month. Exciting stuff though with a wvkbd and work on suggpicker: a new suggestions selector to complement the keyboard.

@omgubuntu @postmarketOS @ollieparanoid Are you a distro maintainer who likes to change firefox's defaults? How much would you sell out for?
