@hamblingreen so, we pretend to be the end-users of your software, and needlessly beg for features that you won't implement?
@hamblingreen maybe learn zig... somebody's got to keep his codebases up to date with the changing standard. https://ziglang.org/download/0.9.0/release-notes.html
@hamblingreen is the problem that ~mil's projects don't compile with the newest (or at least, the arch-packaged) version of zig?
The new postmarketOS v21.12 SP2 service pack is out! This release finally brings MMS to stable with chatty 0.6 and the latest #sxmo and #phosh.

@ddevault #cproc is great! It compiled #scalableFont2 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 #eggnog 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 #Phosh is clearly the most popular UI across the board, it came as a genuine surprise to me how popular #SXMO and SWMO are in general and on #postmarketOS 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! https://www.pine64.org/2022/01/31/pinephone-community-poll-results/
@f @jameschip which flavor of cron does this effect?
@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.
