I was thinking surely it doesn’t just look at the extension and instead uses the mime type at the backend… After looking for a minute (on mobile) I think thats what it does.

process.env.BLOCKED_EXT === undefined ? ‘exe,bat,cmd,com,scr,msi,vbs,ps1,sh,jar’ : process.env.BLOCKED_EXT)

Awesome! Thanks for pointing that out. I’ll give it a go tomorrow for sure.

Hasn’t had an update in nearly a year, according to their github. Bit disappointing.

Pure software project. I’d like to have a fully featured client for free, with donations as an option. Not interested in ads, not sure on locking features behind a paywall either - instead maybe something like paying for a hosted option instead of self hosting.

Quick edit: forgot to answer your other question. Nothing is implemented yet, but I would get enough of it done before asking for any sort of donations or crowd funding.

The frigate container comes with the drivers for it. So its probably fine for the time being

This came up the other week, https://www.codingfont.com/ can help you narrow down what you find looks the best.

What about the OS inside the CPU of your PC

I don’t need it, no. Its more akin to an unattended installer with a answer file - once you start the script you only need to input the new password for root and user account and thats it.

I’ve started updating my own Arch install script to work with Artix instead. Hopefully have it done in a few days.

Thanks for reminding me about it. I’ve tried it once before and didnt like it, but I’ll give it another chance for sure.

I was thinking about it - its a massive project. It does a lot of stuff that I’ve never touched, for me personally - all I do is use it to manage my wine prefixes. Obviously there is a lot of extra stuff that goes into it, but I could probably write my own app that does that much at least in a couple weeks.

I guess this is all to say, its a huge project and for me personally it has a lot of what you might call bloat. Maybe something that pairs all that extra stuff away into optional plugins might be a better approach for a next generation all-in-one launcher

Its insane, and the worst part is I don’t know what we can even do about it. There is no conversation, all the media basically talks about how great this is to protect kids, there doesn’t seem to be any way to push back against this. Why the fuck should we be expected to provide anything to these companies - it’s infuriating.

Oh very cool, hadn’t heard of this. Thanks for sharing.

Their source is also on Codeberg instead of GitHub which is awesome.

Best I can do is $2.

Good question. It could go either way - SDDM and PLM are different enough that any customisations you did on SDDM are at risk of breaking when going to PLM. So they either do it automatically and upset those with customisations that don’t work, or you keep it manual and upset those that don’t want to do it manually.

Given that CachyOS is more aimed at those more comfortable with the terminal (Arch-based) I tend to think it’ll remain manual.

For anyone else who was curious like me, there are manual steps required for existing installs to use the plasma login manager:

**Manual changes for existing users:**

KDE Plasma users with SDDM can now migrate to Plasma-Login-Manager. Please run:

sudo pacman -Syu plasma-login-manager
sudo systemctl disable sddm
sudo systemctl enable plasmalogin
sudo pacman -R sddm-kcm cachyos-themes-sddm sddm

After that you can use in Plasma Settings under the KCM “Apply Settings”.

Oh hell yeaaa

Its going to take me 12-18 months to work on it. I’ve taken a break from development at the moment but will be picking it up again in a couple weeks. I will absolutely be making it open source for sure.

The XMPP specification is massive, and its been taking a long time to decipher it and also trawling through debug logs to compare implementations.

Thanks for the info, I’ll look at how I might add that stuff. Its super early in the development so I’ll keep that stuff front of mind.

I’m writing it in Rust.

As they say, the last 20% of a project takes 80% of the time. Thats where all the boring stuff lives or the stuff that you’ve put off over and over again.

Get through it and you’ll be able to get back to the stuff you enjoy again.
