This is almost completely true, but I would add the caveat that PWAs (progressive web apps) are not as easy to discover and less familiar to install as an app in an app/play store. It might also be because it’s in Apple and Google’s best interest to not streamline that. But it’s still an obstacle nevertheless.

Aegis on Android is also very nice (and open source).

Working development system. I got quite far, but after so much work, became very frustrated when a VSCode plugin wouldn’t work properly because it needed (and assumed) read/write access. I didn’t want to have to manage and think about every little plugin I experimented with at the OS level.

I really wanted to like NixOS (and I do, theoretically), but I couldn’t dedicate more than 5 full days over Christmas to learn how to get to a working development system.

I just ran cosmic-edit and was shocked at how quickly it loads. Must be ~30ms between selecting it and it’s fully loaded.

Very interesting. Do you have any more info about the relationship between 1080p/60hz and battery? It sounds intuitively true, I’d just like to learn more.

Very nice! I was just looking at reviews on this. Really nice machine in every way, except maybe for the camera, and minor points off for the display being “only” 1080p. I have a lovely framework 13", but am jealous of the Lemur’s battery life.

Thanks!

I don’t know when they mark releases, but it’s still under active development.

This is the case for me as well. I tried NixOS this weekend, and even though it has more adoption than Guix, it still does not have 100% coverage of all software I wanted. That said, the packages I did install were pretty up-to-date. I guess NixOS is as close to “critical mass” as we’ve got when it comes to this type of OS. But if I were a wizard devops type person with more time, I’d probably enjoy Guix more.

Given encouragement to try tmux, here is what I’ve come up with as a “one-liner” (script) that does what I was originally looking for:

#!/bin/sh

tmux new-session -d -s split_screen_grep \; \
  send-keys "/bin/sh -c '$1' | tee /tmp/split_screen_grep.txt" C-m \; \
  split-window -h \; \
  select-pane -t 1 \; \
  send-keys "tail -f /tmp/split_screen_grep.txt | grep '$2'" C-m \;

tmux attach-session -t split_screen_grep

I use it as follows, first arg is a command, second arg is a pattern to search for:

$ ./split-grep "cat big_file.txt" "tmux"

Thanks! I’m curious if there is a way to do this as a one-liner?

Elegant and flexible, thank you!

ChatGPT suggests the following:

1. Run tmux
2. rsync -naP --exclude-from=rsync-homedir-local.txt /home/$USER/ $BACKUPDIR/ | tee /tmp/rsync_output.txt
3. Ctrl+B % # splits screen vertically
4. Ctrl+B right-arrow-key # moves to right split
5. tail -f /tmp/rsync_output.txt | grep denied

Not quite a one-liner, but I can see how tmux is a big help here.

Interesting, I’ll check it out, thanks!

There are no errors in the journalctl or steam logs?

Is it possible your Sweet-Dark-v40 theme is interacting poorly with Steam here? It seems to crash right after that unexpected identifier 'direction' and subsequent errors. Maybe try switching themes and see if it has any effect?

I don’t know if this is related, but recently when updating graphics card packages, some of my flatpak apps (Bitwarden, especially) required removing cached GPU files:

rm -rf ~/.var/app/com.bitwarden.desktop/config/Bitwarden/Partitions/bitwarden/GPUCache

Could something similar be going on here for you?

Keep an eye on Pop COSMIC. It isn’t ready yet, but I’d give it 4 months and I think it would be a great match for something like rpi.

This makes more sense, thanks.
