Continuing to think about FOSS projects that I like and make life easier. FZF is the core of many bash scripts and an absolutely amazing tool.
You can even make a "UI" for pacman with it!

I have tried using pure are on a server and what broke it was an update where mkinitcpio or dkms failed to rebuild something after a kernel update.
there may be potential for some improvements there? maybe upstream arch can also benefit from these? future is exciting

Hope everyone has at least somewhat decent holidays!
I also recommend going to the nearest east-european oriented restaurant and asking for 🇷🇴 sarmale (cabbage rolls). It has been a tough year, you deserve this experience. has to be cabbage leafs, anything else might ruin the experience.

Unlocking is instant, if you mess something up, you have to wait. Maybe our lord and savior github.com/KDE/plasma-l... will uhhh.... save us from this.
pls be good

command I was using to reset winget can sometimes hang so the actual solution seems to be kill winget, reset winget, sleep 5 seconds, run any winget command with accept agreements and disable interactivity flags.
crazy.
all of this would've taken 10 minutes on linux.

resetting winget to refresh its internal db also causes the winget.exe to briefly disappear so if you have don't wait a bit after, your shit will break with "winget is not a command" and i dunno man like...

today's conclusion is that winget (also) blows, or the devs, but i think it is both unfortunately.
ms has had complete monopoly over desktop PCs for the past 45 years but the second you want to automate any kind of software deployment, good luck.

just had to use the Google TV app to paste something into a field on my TV and it has been one of the most blood-boiling experience ever. I refuse to believe any of the google execs actually uses their own products.

Winget is fucking wild bro. The m$ store itself sucks ass cause it is a m$ product, then you have winget.run and winstall.app that appear to just index the ms store but then have conflicting data between them. Software management on Windows just blows.

Science just found rare, medicinal compounds in cannabis.
Most cannabis growers discard the plant’s leaves after harvest but new research suggests they might be throwing away chemical gold that might hold powerful therapeutic potential.

I know cosmic 1 just released, but last time I tried it it messed up some stuff with dolphin and firefox of all things, and in the meantime I just accepted I am 100% a KDE person and will more than likely never change. I have even removed all others! Even the KDE X session. Exciting times!

"RemoveWindowsAI" is a script created by zoicware, available on GitHub, that does exactly what it says: it remove every AI feature in Windows 11. Do what you wish to do with this information. I'm sharing this because some folks are forced to use Win11 at work or other places for any reasons.

btw, making rhel installs kickstart themselves with custom setups and post-scripts and blah blah, that shit can be considered Infrastructure as Code right? if I go to an interview and the person asks can I be like "hmnn, yes, quite 🧐"
one thing that really irks me in the RHEL ecosystem is the fact that neither "htop" not "ncdu" are in the 2 base repos. these two tools should be installed by default on all systems in the year 2025.
