I mean if you try to use anything like python packages or even try to build python from sources it is painful. The only way to create developer environment is to use something like nex develop shells and you need to care about passing to LD_LIBRARY_PATH all that you need. And nothing downloaded as a binary is not working… For example, if I’m working on a Java-maven project that includes maven-protobuf then it is not working for you because protoc binary for manylinux is made for a dynamic linkage… Overall developer experience is painful. And anything that is not in nixpkgs you cannot just download, build from source and use: you need to pack everything into packages with resolving all the dependencies by hands…

I had an yearly experience with Nix, but I’m thinking that it is overhead for just a home PC system. You may have more pain with static linkage compared to benefits of Nix reproducability and flexibility. Now is a year I’m on the Fedora Silverblue and this one is a really good balance between complexity and usability.

It is based on files in org format. But it is not related anyhow to org-agenda and planning. It is an only obsidian-like note-raking system with web+mobile+desktop and some blogging capabilities (public/private notes, etc.)

OrgNote. The project is still quite raw but the developer works hard and the overall idea and philosophy behind the project is perfect for me. Fully compatible with emacs org-roam, most probably compatible with logseq. There is a “fully managed” free version with PGP support or an option for a self-hosted server.

Is it a wrapper on top of datafusion, but with an ability to define transformations in yaml? I mean it looks really cool, I’m just trying to understand the usecase

Did you read the article? It is about people arrested by Israel’s officials. Some of them are released after without being even tried. Sometimes they are released without a leg, for example, because in Israel’s hospitals they did not gave him treatment. How a person, who is shakled to the hospital bed can “just go to Egypt”?

It is always a tradeoff. It could be cool to see some analytics of visits, but I’m not ready to go self hosted for that. My blog is just a hobby, not a work, no monetization, etc.

Automatic AI-powered screen lock for when your phone is snatched. Theft Detection Lock is a powerful new feature that uses Google AI to sense if someone snatches your phone from your hand and tries to run, bike or drive away.

Does it mean, that “Google AI” will running 24/7 in background, measuring how I use my phone, with an access to accelerometers data and location data?

That is absolutely crazy. I wish the strength to go through that for Alexey Pertsev!

This one? https://umami.is/

Interesting, thanks! I didn’t think about it. But for a personal blog (without any kind of monetization) it is not an option, unfortunately, due to hosting/infra prices 😞

Also, is there any plan to provide binaries and builds? Especially for Android, for example, via F-Droid?

But is there any plans to support GNU Linux distros, like Debian or Nix? From the first look the browser is only for Serenity.

True, but diversity and competition is always better than monopoly. I won’t use it but I cannot say that it changes nothing.

emacs + elfeed

Reasons:

1. I’m using emacs for almost everything, so it it is a quite obvious choice
2. Links to rss/atom are stored in a plain human readable org-mode file that you can edit manually or use VCS on top
3. It works fine from both terminal and gui
4. It is a fully OSS solution under The Unlicense

Heavy plus. Especially due to the fact, that the app stores notes/todos as a plain human-readable text (org-mode format), no proprietary formats or vendor-lock to the app.

Try to switch to console (ctr alt f2) and run xsession via startx. Or just try to install some meta package from console, like gnome-desktop (like sudo apt install gnome-desktop)

Anyway console (tty) is all what you have now and it should be rnough for restoring the system.

QT apps looks not so good in any GTK window environment… And they do not follow general setting about windows.

Thank you. I hope too. But now it is not safe to be being in Russia and trying to get better government… So, for myself I just decided to leave the country. I'm not ready to risk my safety and safety of my family trying to protest against Putin. One can say that I'm a coward, but for me it change nothing: I prefer to be a healthy free coward instead of tortured hero in prison. To be honest, my only hope is that he die soon, there are a lot of rumors about his health problem, some cancer.

As a russian I can say that Putin is definitely crazy. He always was crazy a littlw due to his KGB past, you know, some tendency to overestimate impact of special servies and conspiracy. But I guess that the last drop was a covid pandemic when he sitted alone in bunker for a year in a total isolation. He totally out of mind. I do not think that one should seriously look at his speeches. Also, as a native russian speaker I watched a video interview and can proove that the translation is cirrect. He really said it…
