I was thinking that the user intentionally chose their distro, because of the Ubuntu character.

Cool, more free stuff

Arch, you want more free stuff faster

Not again!

Debian, you want to set and forget, so any updates that do come up are still a nuisance

/dev/sdX is a file, and both dd, cat can read files in full. You can even try something like zstd to compress it too.

One of the nice things about dd though is you can see the progress with --status=progress

I think it is so that the subvolume can be mounted with different options. You can of course have a mixed layout which might be more convenient, so that say root and home subvolumes mount with the same options, but swap mounts with different options. And the top level never gets mounted at all.

toplevel (not mounted)
+-- @ (subvolume mounted on /)
    +-- home (subvolume, looks like a folder, same mount options as @)
    +-- usr (folder, gets snapshotted by @)
    +-- ...
+-- @swap (subvolume with different options, mounted on /swap)

I set mine up with a purely flat layout so I haven’t verified this is true, but it sounds reasonable.

Here’s the documentation I was looking at:

Screenshot woulda been better just so everyone sees the same thing lol. I wasn’t sure what it would look like because on browser it highlighted some things green, and on Voyager it seems to highlight 4+ space indented as gray. No clue what is going on there :D

vim with :set virtualedit=all gets pretty close being able to “paint” text anywhere… unfortunately i was on my phone and didn’t think to use it

hopefully it renders well on your client :D

Woahh thats so cool!!

I think your QMK config counts (for now;)) What are some useful things you’ve changed?

Yeah, im a bit worried about vim binds for alternative layouts as well. I think some people use a layer mod to keep normal mode as QWERTY (or a “normal mode” layer) but insert mode uses their regular layout. Others apparently use their non-qwerty layout for everything (but i guess change hjkl). Apparently it’s not too bad… but probably depends on the person.

The clamps lol, i love it!

I’ve had this type of itch to keyboardize my workflow more. I learned about colemak keyboard mods, and started following the rabbit hole haha. Did you design your keyboard pcb too? or just wrote custom firmware?

Ooo cool, thanks for sharing!

Not having Paint.NET sucked when I switched to Linux. I got very used to it and that was the one I missed most… it took a few years bouncing between programs but I’m happy with Krita now. GIMP just never clicked for me unfortunately.

I sometimes think about making a Paint.NET clone for linux but i have too many other projects and hobbies i wanna do instead yk

XWayland normally runs x11 apps seamlessly (more or less) in Wayland

XWayland rootful spawns a window which is like a virtual monitor running a full x11 session inside it. You spawn apps inside of the window using the DISPLAY variable
