yeah it will be ruby 4.0

> Same as the story about how groups shouldn’t go out during COVID but BLM protests are fine.

i don't think you have a good grasp of why that it was ok for outdoor protests to happen but people should not go out into crowded buildings. the chance of you getting sick from a protest is much less than the chance of you getting sick from going to an indoor gathering at say a club. getting sick is not a binary on or off. it's exposure time and magnitude vs. your immune system's defenses.

about 5 months ago i jumped ship to kde plasma and it's been great. took a month or two to get the most prized things working the way i wanted but kde is so configurable that you can get it to work pretty much identical to a mac. toshy gives you all the familiar mac keyboard shortcuts and lets you do per application configs. I can't see going back to a mac unless an employer mandated it. the freedom you have is refreshing. if something doesn't work the way you want it you can change it.

yeah they only have one system for it all and they are all called bugs.

here's the 25 year old bug. https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=57805

as a matter of fact... yes https://i.imgur.com/0uxzr4H.png

> At last! Mozilla fixing longstanding bugs! (I jest)

you joke but they did just close out the initial implementation of a something like 27 year old bug. about:keyboard was recently added to nightly to allow you to change or clear the built in keyboard shortcuts of a bunch of menu items like save, back, refresh, or open dev tools or whatever.

there's a lot of iphone/ipad users out there.

I don't use it but ui probably. ads maybe. plenty of people have money and don't want the inconvenience of trying to get around it.

it is a string usually but could be called with a single number or some other object that has that method overwritten and it would still do the right thing.

when i was doing .net programming way back in the day asp.net handled each navigation with a javascript event and it broke all that stuff. this was right before ruby on rails existed so maybe it’s better now.

awesome... thank you!

I too would really like a linux version of this

it's like the steam client but for gog + all the other markets like epic/xbox apparently including messaging.

yeah dolphin is great software!

i think i've seen this effect on tv shot on cameras that were lower fps than the tv outputs. looks fake and bad and interpolated because it is.

it's taken programming from being fully waiting on compilations to being incrementally compiled and productive back to waiting on the compiler all over again.

thanks for that... looks like a pretty well thought out piece of work

Linux has gotten pretty good lately. I wish it was better at running the game i want but other than that it's even better than macos in a lot of regards.

most of the hosting is donated for free outside of the influence of monetary donations.

I am by no means an expert at sharpening knives but I can get my knives to razor sharp edges on a 20 dollar whetstone and an old pair of jeans glued onto a piece of plywood with some polishing compound on it as a strop. really isn't rocket science to do it right and it would take decades of daily sharpening(no one does this outside of chefs maybe) to make any kind of noticeable dent in the metal. if you can push it through paper(not just slice it) it's more than sharp enough and even a slicing cut on paper is fine.

double click the tab area and you get a new tab. ctrl-n gets you a new tab. i personally wouldn't ever use that feature.

I like the extra modes of copying since they all have unique uses and prevent editing in cases.

the encoding bit is odd yeah. adjust scrollback is not a common option i suppose.

it would be nice to configure the right click menu more but that's not an option i see in many apps so it's a wash. I use the menu so i don't have those options. it may even be configurable via a file somewhere in .config... i haven't tried or been bothered by the defaults enough to do so.

there was a rich woman that drove into a lake on her estate and drowned because she couldn't open the door in time. you'd think a high profile death of a rich person would change something at least.

I don't think it's super complex with a ton of options any more. Just installed cachyos(arch based) kde plasma and the right click menu looks like this https://i.imgur.com/S59wy2H.png so either they are configuring away a lot of the complexity or the updates to it have been slimming.

yeah I mentioned municipal compost because they can get the compost temperature way higher than we can at home scale. It should break down in the big compost piles they have

they linked to the study... https://pubs.rsc.org/en/content/articlelanding/2025/fb/d5fb0...

> These films exhibit a transparency of 83.70–84.30% mm−1 and a tensile strength of 15.42–18.20 MPa. They biodegrade within 17 days in soil at 24% moisture content. These films demonstrate outstanding potential for food packaging applications. Our research approach of repurposing agricultural byproducts to create high-value products helps reduce plastic waste, conserve the environment, and provide economic benefits to farmers.

on the lower end of plastics but might be fine for this application: https://www.researchgate.net/figure/3-Tensile-strength-and-i...

seems comparable to LDPE which i think the common bags are made from.

the places around here are using compostable plastic bags. not sure what it's made of but it can be composted in municipal facilities according to the bag. one downside is they are green tinted and harder to see what is in there but if it removes some of the plastic killing the ocean then i'm for it... assuming it's not a plastic that degrades into microplastics.

bundler is generally pretty fast on the ruby side. it also reuses dependencies for a given ruby version so you don't have the stupid node_folder in every project you use with every dependency re-downloaded and stored. if you have 90% of the dependencies for a project you only have to download and install/compile 10% of them. night and day difference.

that's kinda funny since that's basically exactly how firefox does it with the chrome of the browser being javascript and html and css itself.

beginning and end of a textbox is huge. cmd basically acts as a home end key in windows. opt acts like word wise. there is another big difference is that cmd+up/down goes to the beginning or end of a window. there’s also the emacs bindings built into every standard text input area too. there’s more and a lot of nuance that i’m surely not describing well but those functions are top notch.
