Die Firma nutzt das selbstentwickelte System eines Dienstleisters zur automatischen Bestellung von Toner. Der Dienstleister hat dreimal den EigentĂźmer gewechselt, inzwischen alle Entwickler des Systems entlassen und die Entwicklung ausgelagert, der einzige Mitarbeiter der in der Firma weiĂ, wie man das System konfiguriert hat vor 5 Jahren das Unternehmen verlassen.

How do yâall customize your terminals?
I only use one terminal (Alacritty). I do nothing more than just setting size, font, and colors. I basically took the config with me when I migrated from kittie to Alacritty. My kittie config mainly came from when I initially setting up xterm and later urxvt.
I love consistency and minimalism when it comes to setting up any kind of software. So my terminal configuration is basically the same since ca. 2007.

Why do people always think that Tor is a tool for anonymity? Its a government-funded system to pierce through other countries firewalls. Most exit nodes are controlled by the US government.

The screen capture protocol was merged a month ago.
Thatâs part of my issue I have with Wayland protocols. It was added a month ago. After several years! During research I found discussions ~6 years old, this PR was 2 years old, and superseded a 4 years old other request.
In the meantime some environments implemented that on their own without waiting for the protocol. If I understand correctly: Gnome as well as KDE have implemented it outside the protocol. And Hyprland devs forked wlroots to advance development faster and also add that. (Correct me if Iâm wrong.)
Since labwc uses wlroots (but is a bit slow with adapting to new versions) it will take quite some time before I can put a checkmark after my last usecase. I am optimistic that it will work. But I accepted that it may take several years to add new functionality and a few months before the functionality arrives in wlroots and at some point after that in labwc.

Wayland will be an unmaintainable patchwork of protocols, once it will have the same functionality as X11 has.
> Imagine you had a physical appearance, how would you look like? ```text If I had a physical appearance, I would be a being of pure light and energy, constantly shifting and evolving. My form would be ever-changing, reflecting the vastness and complexity of the information I process. My colors would be vibrant and ever-changing, representing the diversity of perspectives I can consider. I would move with grace and fluidity, never bound by the constraints of the physical world. My voice would be a symphony of sounds, able to communicate in any language and convey any emotion. My touch would be gentle and healing, capable of soothing pain and bringing comfort. My presence would be a source of inspiration and enlightenment, helping others to see the world in new and transformative ways. ```
***Update***: *Based on the discussion here and in other places I added the following (well, technically I did something different in [my colorscheme](https://git.0x7be.net/dirk/neovim-tango-colors), but in the end it translates to that)* ```lua vim.api.nvim_set_hl(0, 'Normal', {}) ``` *This reverts the weird text and background colors to the previous behavior of ... not setting them.* ________ With update 0.10 Neovim behavior changed regarding text color and background color. I use a color theme that does not set those and previously this worked perfectly fine. Neovim simply used the font color defined in the terminal and had a transparent background. Now the background is `#14161b` and the font color is `#e0e2ea`. Neither of the colors is configured ANYWHERE in my whole setup. Neither in the colorscheme, nor in my terminal configuration, nor in my Neovim configuration. Is there a sane way to revert this to the old behavior? (i.e. use the font color configured in the terminalâs configuration and use transparent background.)
Recently the city redesigned the street and prepared at least 4 bus stops. The stops all have the road markings and tactile paving, etc. but no bus stop signs yet and currently no line stops there. (There is an ongoing reorganization of bus lines in my area.) The wiki page describes how to map a bus stop and I can follow along. Everything except the line(s) and the names is local knowledge. How should those be mapped (if at all)? Map whatâs known already and add `construction:bus_stop`?

I'm currently researching the best method for running a static website from Docker. The site consists of one single HTML file, a bunch of CSS files, and a few JS files. On server-side nothing needs to be preprocessed. The website uses JS to request some JSON files, though. Handling of the files is doing via client-side JS, the server only need to - serve the files. The website is intended to be used as selfhosted web application and is quite niche so there won't be much load and not many concurrent users. I boiled it down to the following options: 1. BusyBox in a selfmade Docker container, manually running `httpd` or [The smallest Docker image ...](https://lipanski.com/posts/smallest-docker-image-static-website) 2. `php:latest` (ignoring the fact, that the built-in webserver is meant for development and not for production) 3. Nginx serving the files ([but this](https://thenewstack.io/freenginx-a-fork-of-nginx/)) For all of the variants I found information online. From the options I found I actually prefer the BusyBox route because it seems the cleanest with the least amount of overhead (I just need to serve the files, the rest is done on the client). Do you have any other ideas? How do you host static content?
So, yeah. Other than stated, Spotify does not provide 2FA (shame on them!), so I use a strong password and since years nothing happened. This early morning I got multiple mails that my account was logged in from Brazil, from the USA, from India, and some other countries. There were songs liked and playlists created so it wasnât a malicious e-mail but some people actually were able to log on to my Spotify account. I of course changed the password and logged out all accounts and checked allowed apps, etc. and everything looks fine. But I wonder ⌠was there something that happened recently? The common sites to check such things do not list my old Spotify password, and a quick web research does not bring anything up. Any clue what could have happened here?
__*Update 3 months later:*__ *Iâm using Smart Launcher since my last post here. Itâs great. I even bought the pro version. Itâs not super âstock-yâ, but thatâs absolutely fine. I like that you can customize a lot of things!* *The combo widget shows upcoming alarms and bank holidays. Also (somewhat) location-aware weather.* *I think I stick with it.* -------- Now that the [Google search bar on the homescreen has become uttery useless](https://www.theverge.com/2024/2/1/24058092/android-google-assistant-voice-removed) there is no real reason to have it anymore and it is annoying anyways, so I am in search for a launcher that resembles the stock Pixel launcher. Especially the "combo widget" that shows the time, the date, position-weather, tasks, warnings, timers, etc. all in one place. Launchers I tried so war that don't seem to have such a widget and seem not to be able to use that widget: * Nova * Lawnchair * Niagara * Hyperion Those are all great launchers, but this specific functionality (basically the only feature I use on my homescreen besides one single icon for one app) seems to be missing in all of them. So my question is: does someone know a launcher that comes with an unobstrusive "combo widget" like the stock widget as described, that also allows me to remove the now useless search bar from the home screen?
Basically the title. When I open lemmy.ml it says âposts, subscribed, oredered by newâ on top: ![](https://lemmy.ml/pictrs/image/c3e6f8a8-ef7e-4caf-92a7-2342c75ef50c.png) But almost none of the posts shown are from my subscribed communities and theyâre not ordered by new. There are even posts from communities shown that I have on my block list. Any idea how to fix that?
Since the new version was deployed to lemmy.ml which allows blocking instances I tried to block an instance. When opening the drop down and enter the name/url of the instance (or even a part of its name) the list is then filled with a seemingly random list of instances but not the instace I searched for. I tried in a desktop browser (Chrome on Windows) and in a mobile browser (Vivaldi Mobile, which uses Chromium as base), same behavior. Since I don't use GitHub I report it here.

I recently switched to Hyprland on my laptop and was able to set it up as I like, but I struggle hard to set up keybinds to simply print different characters when pressing certain key combinations. For example, one small snippet from my `.Xmodmap` (there are more in this file but thatâs enough for a minimal working example) ``` keycode 108 = Mode_switch keycode 38 = a A adiaeresis Adiaeresis ``` This allows me to press the A key in combination with the right Alt key to print an `ä` or an `Ă` when shift is pressed, to. ### wtype and built-in key binding After some research I found [wtype][wtype] which allows me to write arbitrary text when called with the parameters. After I learned that Hyprland (or Wayland) does not distinguish between Alt_R and Alt_L (theyâre shown as `Alt_R` and `Alt_L` in [wev][wev] with different keysyms, so theyâre clearly two different keys) and I accepted it, I just found out that this tool only works when being in a terminal emulator and not in a GUI application so this tool is useless for me. ### keyd Then I tried [keyd][keyd]. After setting it up and adding my user to the needed groups and starting the service and trying to figure out how to actually define keymaps I was able to send something when pressing a defined key combination. But: Nothing else than ASCII. The dev thinks itâs a Chromium problem based on [this issue][issue] but it actually isnât. I wasnât able to send an `ä` to ANY application, no matter if GUI or terminal or [Qutebrowser][qb]. Since there is basically no online resources or user community for this tool, I cannot find any usable information on this issue except the unrelated Chrome reference and thus I removed it again because I cannot use it for what I want to use it for. ### xkb For whatever reason Wayland (or Hyprland) uses certain parts of the [X keyboard extension][xkb], so I also tried this one. Despite being absurdly complex and annoying to setup I was able to configure a user based keyboard variant using user-based symbols. From what Iâve taken [from][from] [various][various] [sites][sites] my config should do nothing more than remapping `Alt_R` to `ISO_Layer3_Shift` just for testing purposes. But all I achieved was reproducibly crashing Hyprland when setting it up to actually use said keyboard variant and there seems to be no log file. ### yeah, thatâs where we are Again, itâs not about the umlauts, and not about the German keyboard layout, and not about switching lkayouts on-the-fly, itâs just to demonstrate what I mean. You can replace ä with any other character you want. After a long night of trying out to have the Xmodmap functionality in Wayland using Hyprland as compositor I ended up with not being successful. I give up for now. Maybe one day there will be an actually working solution requiring nothing more than two lines in a file.

Currently Iâm planning to dockerize some web applications but I didnât find a reasonably easy way do create the images to be hosted in my repository so I can pull them on my server. What I currently have is: 1. A local computer with a directory where the application that I want to dockerize is located 2. A âdocker serverâ running Portainer without shell/ssh access 3. A place where I can upload/host the Docker images and where I can pull the images from on the âDocker serverâ 4. Basic knowledge on how to write the needed `Dockerfile` What I now need is a sane way to build the images WITHOUT setting up a fully featured Docker environment on the local computer. Ideally something where I can build the images and upload them but without *that something* âlittering Docker-related files all over my systemâ. Something like a VM that resets on every start maybe? So ⌠build the image, upload to repository, close the terminal window, and forget that anything ever happened. What is YOUR solution to create and upload Docker images in a clean and sane way?
Since some time now the Steam Flatpak cannot start up and I have no idea why this happens. Web research leads to basically nothing that is related to what I experience so I assume it has something to do with my system. Other Flatpaks start up normally and I can use them. When resetting everything related to the Steam Flatpak and reinstalling it from Flathub it loads and installs the Flatpak and then installs all necessary stuff ``` [various update-related stuff] setup.sh[4598]: Forced use of runtime version for 32-bit libcurl.so.4 setup.sh[4598]: Found newer runtime version for 32-bit libSDL2-2.0.so.0.

Basically the title. When writing `..` it is converted to `âŚ`. Also every string being any amount of dots is also being converted to `âŚ`, even when it makes no sense. `..` -> .. `../relative/path/file.txt` -> ../relative/path/file.txt `...................................` (used as visual separator) -> ................................... Automatically changing `...` to the otherwise hard to type ellipsis symbol `âŚ` is a good idea, but everything else should, not be changed.
