The relay code is here: https://github.com/bluesky-social/indigo/tree/main/cmd/bigsky

And according to this you can host everything except “AppView”: https://alice.bsky.sh/post/3laega7icmi2q

If Google is the only thing holding up the non-Apple web browsers, maybe then this will lead to scaling down the insane scope of the web standards so it becomes reasonable to implement and maintain a browser for non-megacorps.

Wishful thinking, but hey.

I’ve been using Linux for maybe 8 years before getting a Mac and found it to be great to use pretty much immediately. So there’s not really much I can tell you here. Except maybe to install the GNU coreutils from homebrew (and that itself if you don’t have it yet), the ones it comes with suck.

I don’t think there is a way to download Xcode without an Apple ID. The App Store also needs one though you could get by without that. You could just make the account only for downloading Xcode and only sign in in the browser for it, I suppose.

Edit: Oh yeah, get Mac Mouse Fix if you plan on using it with a normal mouse. The standard scrolling behavior is abysmal.

Can confirm it is terrible. I bought a pack from Amazon and both of them have terrible DAC artifact noises. Should have gone with the Apple one.

The bingo one actually uses crossbeam channels instead of mutexes, so that’s nice. I haven’t looked too closely at it though.

I don’t think you can do too much about the Spectrum one if you want to keep the two threads, but here’s what I would change related to thread synchronization. Lemmy doesn’t seem to allow me to attach patch files for whatever reason so have an archive instead… https://dblsaiko.net/pub/tmp/patches.tar.bz2 (I wrote a few notes in the commit messages)

Just to give the reason for Rc<RefCell> in the current project. I’m reading in a M3U file and I’m going to be referencing it against an Excel file. So in the structure for the m3u file, I have two BtreeMaps, one for order by channel number and one by name. Each containing references to the same Channel object.

So basically it’s channels indexed by channel number and name? That one is actually one of the easy cases. Store indices instead:

struct Channels {
  data: Vec<Channel>,
  by_number: BTreeMap<u32 /* or whatever */, usize>,
  by_name: BTreeMap<String, usize>,
}

// untested but I think it should compile
fn get_channel_by_name(ch: &Channels, name: &str) -> Option<&Channel> {
  Some(&self.data[*ch.by_name.get(name)?])
}

Not for the built-in Eq derive macro. But you can write your own derive macros that do allow you to take options, yeah.

Do you have some public code you could link to that you’re having this issue with? There isn’t a one-size-fits-all solution for Rc/RefCell, I think.

Whoa nice, I need to keep this in mind.

Meeeeh, that sucks though compared to iCloud. I haven’t tried it but it seems like it will upload only and not download, and it will not store the entire Photos database (including faces, etc.).

Would be cool if this results in being able to store the Photos library in Nextcloud. Not holding my breath though.

Sounds like exactly the right way to talk about physical buttons to me.

At the very least you can see it in dmesg.

I think in this case I would translate “Lager” as “warehouse”

Every time I read something about Enlightenment I have to think about this post: https://what.thedailywtf.com/topic/15001/enlightened

Settings -> Output:

• Output Mode: Advanced
• Recording -> Type: Custom Output (FFmpeg)

OBS allows you to use everything FFmpeg supports with the “Custom Output (FFmpeg)” recording type.

You likely need to tweak the CRF/other parameters. Take a look at https://trac.ffmpeg.org/wiki/Encode/AV1

(Note that I don’t know how exactly to tune the parameters to get the best quality/size at the expense of encode speed which is what I would do here.)

You should definitely re-encode it in post with higher compression settings that take much longer than you could encode “live” to get a small file with the same quality as your original high bitrate recording. (I suggest the AV1 codec for that)

Irresponsible and malicious journalism like this is why I have an immediate distrust against any sort of reporter that tries to talk to me. Probably irrational but still.

I hope your balls explode.

I wish him the very same.

Uhhhh. Be gay do crime
