Hearing your monitor squeal when you got the modelines wrong was fun.

Currently using gbar in Hyprland as I got a bit overwhelmed trying to learn too many things at once (gbar is very limited but simple to configure). I've always been thinking of moving over to a more flexible option like eww though, and this might be a good reason to do so (keeping things consistent).

Which proves the earth is round.

Yes, that's what they would say. I'm not sure if you are disagreeing with me? No one I've ever heard says Legos here in Australia. I'm playing with my Lego. Check out my Lego. I'm missing some of my Lego pieces. Pick up your Lego.

Mostly the second one, yes. Lego. Lego bricks. Lego pieces. Boys of Lego. Never Legos.

I think it is mostly Americans that say that. I've never heard anyone say it outside of reading it on American centric forums.

How does this compare to wlroots?

I absolutely love Hyprland but have no respect for Vaxry beyond his coding ability.

I really hope someone starts a good fork of it, I haven't found another wm I like as much but I hate to be seen as supporting that awful person.

They are not likely to be using the terminal. Pretty much every graphical file browser will ask for confirmation upon delete, and many will use a rubbish bin by default.

Before I had a proper internet connection (had to ask permission to borrow a dial up account) I bought a magazine that had a picture of a cow on it saying that Larry the cow was different. It was a DVD image of the stage one mirror of this new fangled Gentoo thing.

Learnt from the magazine how to install a bootloader and so on and then "bravely" typed emerge world into the terminal after configuring the list of all the packages I wanted. Including a full desktop (KDE I think but may have been Gnome). And Firefox. And Open Office. And some multimedia stuff I don't remember.

On a Pentium ii.

Took a week before I could do the next step :D

Hi all!

We have just passed 100 subscribers (massive number I know haha) and I thought it would be a good opportunity to touch base and see what we should do here to increase engagement.

As most of you likely know, I am still a mod over at "the other site" and, though I have strong feelings about what they are doing as a company, I feel the community there has a lot of good people so I intend to continue to perform that role (the "glorified janitor" as one user kindly pointed out).

Having said that, I don't want this place to just be a mirror-universe version of r/judo. Lemmy and similar platforms are built around community first and foremost, and I would love to see that side of things grow.

Access to automated mod tools etc. is obviously much more primitive over here (feel free to leave suggestions if you have any) so automated posts and such are likely to be more difficult for now, but is there anything y'all wish we could do here?

Obviously one of the big draws of r/judo is the amazing wiki that Geschichtenerzaehler has put together and I have no intention of stealing that for here (though I'd be happy to copy it here if he was okay with it of course). We don't have anything like that, however I'd love to hear what you all think we could do to make this more than just a dumping ground of a few videos here and there.

Cheers!

One of my students sent me this link and I think I'll be digging into the details for ages.

Watching this is like seeing "my game" but actually performed properly haha

Great use of similar entries to set up throws in different directions, depending on uke's reactions.

Came across this again while looking for a video for a student.

Some absolutely amazing detail and movement. Every time I watch it I get something new.
