First things first, let's get the caps-lock unstuck. It's the key above shift, left of the "a" on your keyboard.

To reach your Mastodon preferences click "Preferences" in the sidebar or from the hamburger menu right next to your name.

Enjoy!

???? gitty v0.5.0 is out!

gitty shows you a project's most relevant issues, pull requests, and changes at a quick glance - right on the command line.

The latest release now also supports gitea.com and your own self-hosted Gitea instances!

Just discovered and fixed a (potentially serious) bug in Dolphin, KDE's file manager and generic file model:

Sorting by size would cause an unstable sort order under certain circumstances.

This sounds innocent at first, until you realize this also causes it to expand a folder's content into the wrong view parent: you expand folder A, but all its files show up below folder B.

You may think you're deleting an empty folder, but it's not actually empty ????

Fix here: https://invent.kde.org/system/dolphin/-/merge_requests/232

Quick update: the fix has been approved and landed in master as well as the stable branch for the upcoming 21.08 release of Dolphin! ❤️

Oh, I see ????

Getting 64GB of RAM for my new machine probably ranks among the single best decisions of my entire life.

Just a regular day on the Internet.

Imagine a world without opensource, and the only operating system that exists is Windows.

I seriously wonder: would I still be as excited about computers & tech? Would I have moved on and found another profession in life?

Thanks to everyone involved in opensource. I can't repeat this often enough ❤️

Mind blown, I never realized this coincidence:

You can use the next number in the Fibonacci sequence (1 1 2 3 5 8 13 21 34) to convert from miles to kilometers.

For example, 13 miles is 21 kilometers.

????

@rayroy

Of course it is. The definition of the mile and the kilometer are entirely independent of each other, and yet...

If you're still undecided which console to go with this generation, people have figured out that they can float ping-pong balls on the Series X vent... so I think we have a clear winner.

???? k-means v0.2.0

Plasma 5.20 is out ????

A massive release, containing improvements to dozens of components, widgets, and the desktop behavior in general.

I asked my girlfriend how often she actually regrets being with me, and her response was a decisive "hmmm", followed by a pause.

That hurt ????

???? mastotool v0.2.2 - displays statistics about your Mastodon account and lets you search your toots!

Minor bugfixes:

- Automatically prefix 'https' if the protocol is missing from the URL- Improve table rendering- Show helper text for empty tables

I woke up this morning, rather confused as my INBOX was overflowing. A couple hours later and I just realized I'm on the HN front page & part of the cron.weekly newsletter.

That kinda explains things ????

Thanks for all the upvotes, much love ❤️

Looking outside, it already feels like winter... and I don't like it, I don't like it one bit.

I was pretty fed up with the behavior of 'df', so I wrote my own diskfree tool.

It's called 'duf', it's written in #golang, and you can get it here: https://github.com/muesli/duf

On ArchLinux, you can simply install 'duf' from the AUR.
