Do you need a DE? I use sway and a few kde apps (konsole, okular, gwenview, dolphin) + firefox and thunderbird, I wouldn’t call that a DE…

if you want i3 but on wayland, you could try sway. It is exactly that, you can even reuse most of your i3 config file.

When I used it, I mostly switched between the 9 apps in my favorites/dock with the Meta+digit shortcuts. I rarely used anything besides those 9, and then I just used alt tab. It worked really well, no complaining.

Today it’s mostly the same, but with a tiling window manager and the same numbers: 3 is thunderbird, 5 is file browser for instance. It’s muscle memory at this point, feels great.

It’s getting harder and harder to get attention apparently. Which is good.

As a Mastodon instance admin that did the blocking properly only yesterday, I can tell you this list appears to be automated and accurate.

Well he’s on his last term, and his political party will not survive him. Who knows how the next presidential elections will go?

The French state is a bad actor already.

I have kept most of my Nintendo systems, but I sold my GameCube and now I regret it.

Games are still playable on my Wii, but I would have modded the GC to load games from a sd card to make it more future proof, as the disk reading part is the most fragile.

Interesting. Kept it in my wallabag, if I ever grow tired of sway.

I use vim macros all the time. For example, you have a bunch of lines that need the same 3 operations done:

• insert " at the beginning of the line
• insert ", at the end on the line
• indent

Press qa, do what you need to do on one line and go one line below, press q again to stop recording the macro, then you can do it 50 times with 50@a.

my bad. I guess city and road planning is very car-centric as well.

You live in the US I presume?

Here in Lyon, France, the local government is removing car lanes downtown so we get wider bike lanes. Some are not happy about it, but if you look at the number of people passing through at rush hour, cyclists really outnumber cars, and bike traffic is never jammed.

I refuse to bike on this kind of lane. I just bike on the road, f that.
