>MSG You are lucky! Full moon tonight
This stuff is way above me, but it seems cool! Does that mean it includes moon cycles? Or is that part of the Nethack game? Well, I see SMT there too so I guess it could be a reference to that.

>>2 Yeah, remind lets you calculate dates based off stupid things like the phase of the moon, it's pretty cool. Without full-blown astrology calculation you can't cast the REALLY powerful spells however, so that aspect of the program is pretty much just a toy.
I guess it lets you know good times to play NetHack!

Greatest, I am not after fame and fortune but competence. Practice, yes, but what and how? I can keep doing exercises from textbooks but those seem to cover only a limited domain of programming.

>>10
Probably something you're born with combined with lots of effort I would guess. Do you feel like a programming god and things come to you naturally? If so, maybe you have what it takes.
Hard work just doesn't beat natural genius

Let me warn you: If you ever challenge me to a Programmer Battle, you'll be crying

READY...
CARD SET A = 0
OPEN THE BRACKETS!!!!!

THIS PROGRAMMING COMP IS ABOUT TO GET CRAAAAAAZY!

aren't you that anon that's working on a gui toolkit? have you published the source code yet?

This thread made me want to start doing this.
So I'm downloading FVWM, for now, have this screenshot I found online

Here you go.

Fabian... I keep seeing that guy's name in the weirdest places. This is the fabian that made that Quake port or something, right?

How does one theme FVWM? I couldn't figure out how to select even the pre-made themes at all, even with the dedicated program for it that's meant to make things easy.

Hey Anon, can you describe what's happening in this photo?

Hmm... are you comparing the development of true AI to how a person develops a personality? I'm not good at this philosophical stuff...

Choice of Robots

Wow...
Science is incredible...

I came across this pretty nice overview of the history of emacs lisp.

I was linked to this place from the lisp thread on 4chan.
https://desuarchive.org/g/thread/100727002/#100747581

Here's an elisp function I wrote the other that's a user-friendly wrapper around M-x set-frame-font. It lets you pick the font and size seperately. It also shells out to fc-list to get the list of fonts, so it'll probably only work on non-Mac unixes.

(defun i/set-frame-font (&optional font size)
"Set the font and size for the current frame."
(interactive (list
(completing-read
"font: " (process-lines "fc-list" "--format=%{family[0]}\n"))
(completing-read
"size: " (mapcar (lambda (n) (format "%d" n)) (number-sequence 12 22 2)))))
(set-frame-font (concat font " " size)))

Enjoy.

Former vimfag here.
I just turn that backup behavior off.
If I care about a file's history, it'll be in version control.

(setq make-backup-files nil)
(setq auto-save-default nil)

I think that was my post. I still haven't gotten into emacs, but yeah, I realised I could just redirect those files to being under /tmp, right where they should be.

I went back to Firefox after not using it since...I don't even know, probably 2008 at the latest. I like it a lot more than Chrome based browsers which I switched to. Not sure why I switched to be honest because Chrome was never any better I found...I guess I kind of just tried them out and forgot to go back to Firefox.

I'd like to try some other browsers out but almost all use the same small handful of browser engines, which is not that fun to me. And the few that don't use the usual stuff like Gecko, Blink and so on which means compatibility with some sites might be awkward.

I've honestly mostly stuck with Firefox for years, so much so that I wasn't even aware of their problems with userbase until relatively recently. I do have other browsers up for different purposes, like Librewolf, SeaMonkey and Konqueror, but as you can see most of those are also Firefox based. It just did what I needed to do without the Google/Microsoft drawbacks.
I wouldn't mind using something smaller like Midori or Falkon, but I still run in to problems with those on occasion.

Unironically w3m. I can't say why. I just like it. Its simple and reminds me of when I was a kid discovering the internet for the first time.

I'm thinking of moving back to Qutebrowser. They still haven't implemented a visual cosmetic filter/"Element Zapper" like in uBlock, and their content controls don't appear to be as fine as those of uMatrix, but if others have stuck with the browser for so long, then there must be working alternatives to those features.

I gave the Firefox family another chance recently, and I really like the combination of Tree Style Tabs and Multi-Account Containers. Each container has its own set of cookies, and each container can have their own proxy settings. Tree Style Tabs is also aware of Multi-Account Containers, and works with it seamlessly, letting you open tabs in the container of your choice. It's a really nice way to organize tabs.

good question. Should be on a github repo I've visited once

I hope he does return someday. I enjoyed talking with him over email.

I hope so too

that's a nice wallpaper. makes me nostalgic somehow

Me as well, that kind of abstract design is something I remember associating with Linux desktops around the mid-00, when I really didn't know what it was. They're regarded as ugly now, but I still think they look neat to this day, It even inspires my own desktop, though mine is nowhere near as refined.

What's this a screenshot from? If it's an anime about NEETs I'd like to give it a watch.

Great, I've obviously been ghosted.

This cloudflare feature is basically a none feature, but nonetheless, a way to deal with this CSAM is required for this site to keep existing in my hands.

It's a fed reposting this across every altchan

>>14
yikes, that didnt work. good thing i don't actually use that tripcode elsewhere.. will this work?

ok no tripcodes

Hmm, I'm not sure if I've ever seen a tripcode here now that I think about it. I don't think there's some special way of doing them

Anonymous please refrain from being such a pleb

i did officially finish this:

have fun

I don't get the point of a federated textboard (or imageboard). It's not really a format that benefits from it. They don't have accounts, so migration between them isn't really an issue, and unlike microblogs (twitter, tumblr, mastodon, plemora), where sharing someone else's content is a major factor, seperate boards and threads are relatively exclusive.

Something like this I suppose?

Chromium is faster than firefox and better supported in a lot of cases, which is why I use ungoogled chromium when possible

I did OpenCL programming for a course in university.

From a quick look it seems that the way it draws the image does not support transparency at all. I wonder if it is possible at all.

All I've ever used it for are image previews in Ranger file manager. I don't know what else to do with it.

looks as if keeping some CloudFlare verification going would be helpful. Normally with it off there would be a page of spam

Seems like it stopped not just the spam, but also everyone else from posting.

The irony of communities is that any type of activity drives new activity. Kind of already knew the theory on Kissu but the complete silence after removing spam makes posting seem less welcome

>>28
Do you mean people will comment on spam, thus driving new activity which will then drive activity to THAT activity?
Well, it couldn't hurt I suppose, as long as the spam isn't terribly harmful, but it's usually a great annoyance

>>29
No, I mean the awkward silence means people feel like there's silence to be broken. Breaking the silence is a mental hurdle that makes it harder to post

>I'm not exactly rich (for a grown up person, not living at his parents)
That's not good. If you're rich, as you say, you should make sure that you're exact with your money. Otherwise, you become a rich slob.

This.

I am really curious what OP did to earn that kind of money.

Pic related.

>>21 Looks kind of nice...

You will scrape semen off used computers, and you'll like it.

Only window managers I've ever used are dwm and icewm, Xinerama's just worked in those cases.

I did get Xinerama working with xfce a few days back, but I noticed that some of the programs I like don't play nice with it. I wouldn't mind trying it out in the future though.
I'm currently on Fluxbox, and I've been able to get my set-up working on it. It wasn't easy, but that's not the WM's fault, I just had to learn more about how xorg works to get things going. Now I just have to settle in to doing more configuration by hand.

Of course an edge case like that is going to be largely unsupported.

>>4
In a way, I guess the lack of support can be seen as a good thing, as users no longer have to buy multiple cards to have multiple monitors running. Still, it was a bit of an inconvenience.
