I've been on NixOS with Niri since last November... honestly, I absolutely loved it. I’d tried PaperWM on GNOME and was dying to switch to Niri, but I just couldn't bring myself to take the plunge. once I got sick of Fedora, I finally gave NixOS a third chance, and […]

a screenshot of a Linux desktop environment. the wallpaper is a digital painting of Young Link from The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, holding the ocarina with Navi glowing above him. a terminal window (Kitty) with a neon red border is open on the left, running hyfetch. it displays system specs for NixOS 25.11 running the Niri Wayland compositor, highlighting an AMD Ryzen 7 3700X CPU and Radeon RX 6700 XT GPU. the ASCII logo is colored in the lesbian pride flag colors a screenshot demonstrating the vertical workspace overview of the Niri window manager. three workspaces are stacked vertically against a blurred background of the desktop wallpaper. the central workspace is in focus, showing the active desktop with the open terminal, while the previous and next workspaces are partially visible above and below

what if we could implement the MVU (Model-View-Update) pattern in GTK 4 in such a declarative way?

last night I had this idea and quickly put together a sketch of how it might look in code. I should clarify that I haven't written a single line; it's 100% a thought […]

Vala code snippet that implements Model-Update logic for a counter app using a library called Styx. It defines the "CounterModel" to store the state ("count"), the "CounterIncrementPressed" and "CounterDecrementPressed" messages for user actions, and the "CounterUpdater", which contains the "update" function to modify the model state according to the message received. GTK Blueprint code snippet that defines the interface of a counter app. It shows integration with a library called Styx using "Styx.Builder". The interface contains a label whose text is bound to the "count" value of the data model, and two buttons, "+" and "-", which dispatch the "increment" and "decrement" messages to update the state.

idk maybe i'm tripping but this chart is looking kinda sus. like, i thought 69.1 was more than 52.8? :neodog_woozy:
Misleading bar chart comparing the "Accuracy (%)" of three models: GPT-5, OpenAI o3, and GPT-4o. The chart presents several logical inconsistencies: * The bar for "OpenAI o3" (with a value of 69.1) and the bar for "GPT-4o" (with a value of 30.8) are visually represented with the same height. * The lower portion of the "GPT-5" bar, which represents a value of 52.8, is visibly higher than the full "OpenAI o3" bar, which represents a higher value of 69.1.

dunno why, but I definitely needed to do this: rip my hoodie open so I could run my finger through the sleeve
