i mean, i've never needed to divide the size of a standard sheet of paper - if i need a smaller variant, i can just fold it in half and cut it. when working with paper, it's pretty easy to do physical math, and you rarerly need something that's perfect down to the millimetre

regarding the size- it's just something you learn through life. school supplies lists typically specify the size of notebooks and paper you need to buy in centimetres, so year over year, you quickly learn that A4 is 22:29.7, and the slightly bigger standard notebooks are 24:32

lmao. as if the ai was gonna have a better carbon footprint than the small plastic thing you replace every 5-10 years

[dwl] hacking together a search engine on a work-in-progress setup :3 (lemmy.blahaj.zone)

This is a woefully underpowered laptop I got for free! I'm working to make it into a secure portable machine (since it does support secureboot & TPM-backed disk encryption) to take on the go that I don't fear losing. This is mostly for doing programming & study, on stuff that doesn't require high-performances, so the 2 gigs of RAM are just about enough for regular use -- and it prevents me from being distracted, as I can't load most website on that poor thing…

I'm using 2 bars -- I originally only wanted to use a vertical one, unfortunately not all waybar modules support rotation, so I settled for this, which works quite well in my experience :3

Stuff I use:

  • Catppuccin Frappe as a color scheme on most things
  • Emacs for programming & taking notes (org-mode my beloved)
  • Alacritty as a terminal, with the fish shell
  • Firefox (fuck chromium)
  • stmps as a music player, connected to my selfhosted Nextcloud instance, with a bunch of songs obtained through legal means (obviously)
  • Waybar for a bar, with nm-applet for controlling networkmanager and blueman-applet for controlling bluetooth
  • fcitx5 + mozc for japanese input
  • dwl with the following patches
    • ipc
    • toplevel management
    • touchscreen
    • autostart

I will probably release all my configs in an organized way once I feel like this setup is closer to completion.

KDE's Nate Graham On X11 Being A Bad Platform & The Wayland Future by yukijoou in c/linux@lemmy.ml

X11 being reliable because Xorg devs aren't stupid

xorg devs are wayland devs. nowadays, most of the people that used to work on xorg now work on wayland. they're not stupid, they realised that x11 is too dated for modern systems (see asahi linux) and now are working on a replacement

Court rules Gabe Newell must appear in person to testify in Steam anti-trust lawsuit by yukijoou in c/games@lemmy.world
[-] yukijoou@lemmy.blahaj.zone 34 points 11 months ago

yeah, i think the 30% is fair enough, given the amount of stuff you get as a user by using steam, like

  • good cross-platform support
  • a working friendlist and chat system
  • remote play together
  • the workshop and community features
  • profile customisation stuff for those that like it
  • whishlists and gifts

i honestly feel like while they're a monopoly, they don't do anything other companies can't do, their cut goes to fund features others simply don't provide, so it's entierly fair for them to be more expensive than the competition

I made an IPA keyboard for fcitx on Linux! (pub.kemonomimi.gay)
submitted 1 year ago by yukijoou@lemmy.blahaj.zone to c/linux@lemmy.ml

For those who may not know, the IPA (international phonetics alphabet) is widely used for writing out how words are spoken. It's very useful for linguists writing research papers, and for people looking to learn new languages!

As I wasn't satisfied with most IPA keyboards available, and wanted something that integrated well with fcitx, which I already have to use for japanese input, I re-implemented parts of the SIL IPA keyboard . It's not a one-to-one recreation (yet), because I needed somthing now rather than later, and took some shortcuts to put in all the features I personally needed, but it should be good enough for doing broad transcription of RP English. It should also be fairly trivial to hack in support for most character combinations.

Feel free to check out the git repo!

Mozilla Firefox 119 Is Now Available for Download, Here's What's New by yukijoou in c/linux@lemmy.ml
[-] yukijoou@lemmy.blahaj.zone 62 points 1 year ago

my list of cool features:

Gradually rolling out in Fx119, Firefox now allows you to edit PDFs by adding images and alt text, in addition to text and drawings.

If you're migrating your data from Chrome, Firefox now offers the ability to import some of your extensions as well.

As part of Total Cookie Protection, Firefox now supports the partitioning of Blob URLs, this mitigates a potential tracking vector that third-party agents could use to track an individual.

The visibility of fonts to websites has been restricted to system fonts and language pack fonts in Enhanced Tracking Protection strict mode to mitigate font fingerprinting.

Encrypted Client Hello (ECH) is now available to Firefox users, delivering a more private browsing experience. ECH extends the encryption used in TLS connections to cover more of the handshake and better protect sensitive fields.

Firefox is now available in the Santali (sat) language.

Several enhancements have been made to the Inactive CSS styles feature. This feature assists in identifying CSS properties that have no effect on an element. Pseudo-elements such as ::first-letter, ::cue, and ::placeholder are now fully supported.

The JSON viewer is particularly useful for debugging REST APIs, as it displays formatted JSON responses. Now, if the JSON is invalid or broken, it automatically switches to a raw data view, improving the user experience.

Grouping of items in an array (and iterables) is now easier by using the methods Object.groupBy or Map.groupBy.

I would like to have a browser with some long running tabs available at all time on all my workspaces -- is there an extension for that?

convertablet: a 2-in-1 support daemon for wayland/wlroots compositors (pub.kemonomimi.gay)

cross-posted from: https://lemmy.blahaj.zone/post/2496457

I'm working on a daemon & collection of other tools and configs to bring better support for 2-in-1 convertible tablets/laptops to Wayland/wlroots compositors!

This is a preview of how it works on my Lenovo Miix 320-10icr, though I want to extend support to as many devices as possible in the future!

code

Right now the only other supported device is the Google Caroline (“Samsung Chromebook Pro”) though I'm looking to support as many devices as possible! Right now, I'm working on better hardware detection to make it work out of the box on more devices.
If you have one of such devices, feel free to get in touch, my contact info is on my website: yukijoou.kemonomimi.gay, I'd be more than happy to help you make your device work with this tool!

Notable features right now:

  • Working screen rotation using iio sensors
  • Keyboard/basestation detection using libusb and specific pid/vids
  • Hooks that run on docking/undocking, so you can write your own shell scripts to do fancy things
  • A fcitx add-on that adds hooks on input field focus/unfocus to bring full on-screen keyboard support with IME to Wayland (probably the most useful part of this project, may be nice to have on Linux mobile distros if you're into that sorta things!)
