@akkartik Solarized color scheme is a subset of the xterm 256 color pallette. I'm a big solarized dark fan (except maybe the green)
@oppen I like the idea... mostly because existing gemini clients don't keep track of scroll position in their bookmarks. Funny to see this pop up before any submissions to booksin.space.
Also, does "gpubVersion: 1.0.0" open the door too much to future extensibility? (Maybe inline notes using .patch files?)
@passthejoe Using and developing *free* software, I hope you mean 😉.
If everyone becomes a developer, but they're still slaves to proprietary SW, the free software movement has failed.
@juliobiason Is there a federated stackoverflow yet?
I mean, it's nice and all that they license the content under creative commons, but still would be good to have an option for self-hosted new communities of answers.
@lgehr step 5 was notably the most difficult, as there were a number of things I tried, but they didn't work (regarding creating and importing packages). Don't take these instructions as indicative of standard practice among go developers, I have no clue what other devs do to change go stdlib. So, this is what worked for me.
@lgehr
1. Motivation: had recently experimented with using a emoji clock in shell prompt
2. aerc documentation pointed to go's time.Time.Format
3. go's documentation pointed to a file called src/time/format.go
4. `sudo find / -path '*time/format.go'`
5. copied file, bind-mounted copy over original
6. Made code change (as seen in github PR #45394), compiled aerc to test
There was a post on gemini lately about how we shouldn't use ⓒⓔⓡⓣⓐⓘⓝ sᴛʀᴀɴɢᴇ 𝒸𝒽𝒶𝓇𝒶𝒸𝓉𝑒𝓇𝓈 in our writing because #a11y. My hot take is that as long as the characters being used aren't used improperly (accents/foreign characters), we should just fix our TTS software to pronounce things as the author intended.
@kelbot one of the difficult things about the command line interface is that it doesn't help much if you forget the name of a command. Maybe I need to keep a printed cheatsheet for the 5000+ commands in my path. Distro maintainers take this advice.
