If that's the case, it's a bit of an ugly hack but you could make a wrapper script placed in /usr/local/bin/inkscape like this:

#!/bin/bash

flatpack run org.inkscape.Inkscape ${*}

(the ${*} will pass along all the arguments that the wrapper script was called with)

I use 101domain.com

They're not always the cheapest option but they seem to support a lot of TLDs and their customer support is always fast and staffed by actual humans.

Does lemmy.world federate with midwest.socal? Searching for [!succulents@midwest.social](/c/succulents@midwest.social) on lemmy.world returns no results 😥

edit: testing link

But how about teeth?

Thanks! Per my other comment, I guess I've gotta look at Z-Wave if there are no wifi-only options available. Checking out the T6 Pro now

Thanks - I'll take a closer look at Z-Wave again. I'm only running wifi based devices so far but if this is the only way to get better thermostat control I might have to compromise.

 

Can anyone recommend a thermostat system that is self-hosted (no third-party cloud) and integrates into homeassistant nicely? Something tasmota based would be even better.

This is the final bit of home automation that's been difficult to solve. I've got a heat pump system and there are very few smart thermostat systems that aren't beholden to a public cloud service.

I had many issues running Arch+Wayland+nvidia because, as a long-time i3 user, I figured that migrating to Sway would be the best choice based on so many people in the community talking about it. I tried moving over several times, every few months to see if the experience had improved but each time I got frustrated with how terrible and buggy the environment was.

Trying out Hyprland was a complete game-changer. I've been running it full-time for about 2 months and it's completely stable, supports everything I need to run, and is more efficient: the battery on my laptop lasts about 30% longer compared to my i3/picom/X11 setup.

So yeah, I highly recommend Hyprland if you've tried sway in the past and didn't get anywhere with it.

Not recently... I'm just completely out trust and benefit of the doubt based on the various controversies and where their (Tencent) money is coming from.

Well said - my patience ran out about 6 or 7 "mistakes" ago. I'm never going back.

For me, they'd have to

  1. Replace /u/spez
  2. Implement some sort of publicly auditable accountability re: shadowbans and database-level comment editing
  3. Open-source significant parts of their platform.

I have zero expectation that any of these things will happen. The most healthy way forward, for an open and free internet, is the meritocracy of the fediverse.

 

...and FUCK YOU spez!

Ahhh, e17 - I've got memories of building it from either cvs or svn at the time as soon as it was announced by rasterman on Slashdot.

e17 was my daily driver for a long time. It looked very pretty, before compositing was even a thing on the desktop, all without sacrificing performance. The biggest downside was that it wrote its configs as binary blobs which frequently broke as new development releases came out.

[–] ForynGilnith@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (2 children)

My heart still belongs to enlightenment/e17 but I've been using i3 for the past few years, and then hyprland for the last 4 months or so. It's working out well.
