Ooooh tmpv is a smart name for your little tool. I may steal it lol

What do you mean by pip in any window? I’m assuming you mean picture-in-picture, which doesn’t make much sense to me if you can just rearrange the windows?

Those changes look amazing tbh. Just being able to resize the selection and having the magnifying lens is great.

2.4k packages as well, or is that normal on fedora?

Fair point

Steam added an excellent screen capture feature to their overlay, but I like being able to capture my screen anytime, not just when playing games with the steam overlay.

gpu-screen-recorder is the perfect tool for this, you set up a command to run at startup and the software records the last X minutes in the background, with barely any hardware utilization. Add a hotkey for another command that saves the recorded clip to a file, and boom, simple and efficient replay recorder. I’m honestly surprised this app wasn’t mentioned yet.

I don’t think anyone was saying it’s impossible, just that it needs standardization. I imagine windows is more appealing to companies when it is easier to find admins than if they were to use some specific linux system where only a few people are skilled to manage it.

Having more beautiful and structured URLs. I suppose for those cases it’s more of a preference, and with the tooling I use (.NET) it’s not too difficult to achieve.

I guess my gripe with your original statement was that I was thinking mostly of state like user login etc. I have to concede it’s not totally garbage for the cases you mentioned.

omg thanks for this

have multiple routes point to the same endpoint, dynamically adding the parameters serverside

I disagree. I definitely prefer REST APIs that use the file path for searches, filters, sorting. You get most if not all benefits from query parameters, and if done correctly it is just as clearly readable as query params.

As a WebDev… URL parameters are definitely not the place to keep state… Were not in the 00’s anymore. They do have legit uses, but we have JS localStorage nowadays.

Oh, nice! That’s definitely valuable info. Personally, I do think it’s too much work to implement that properly, though.

Fair enough, I haven’t given that too much thought myself until now. After playing around with Firefox’s URL cleaning, I realized there are some parameters I want to keep. So, by clean I mean removing all unnecessary parameters in the URL.

For example, https://youtu.be/jNQXAC9IVRw would become https://youtu.be/jNQXAC9IVRw, but https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jNQXAC9IVRw keeps it’s parameter, because it is necessary.

I guess replicating the logic for deciding which parameters to keep is not trivial, so the easiest solution is probably just manually pasting links into firefox, and just copying them cleanly from there. Thanks for providing some code, though!

Ohh I didn’t realize there’s a difference between system and DE keyboard options. I’ll look into that, thanks

I’ll check it out again, thanks!

Kinda off topic, but after I played around with all these emoji boards, every time I reboot, my system keyboard layouts get reset. Any idea what may be causing this?

ah, that’s a handy command, thanks. I should probably start noting down some useful commands somewhere persistent…

anyways, I’m using a Ryzen 5 5600X on an B550 Aorus Pro motherboard.

I have no idea about the history behind this but I assume it has to do with the abbreviation DE being inside KDE. I could see how that makes people think that KDE is the DE, and not the community that develops Plasma.

Thanks for the link! I couldn’t get ibus-uniemoji to work properly, so I’ll probably have to settle for this.

This is definitely a good contender. I do already use 2 different keyboard layouts regularly, so I think it might get annoying when I’m trying to switch between those two. I’ll give it a go though, thank you!
