This is a great idea, thank you!

Here’s a post on Mastodon that links to their blog where they describe different clients.
I haven’t experienced any crashes. I’m just getting annoyed with it resetting the view when I rotate my phone by accident. It takes me back to Local and changes my filter back to default. Painful.
I feel like putting it in a VM is probably overkill. I just have everything running in Docker containers and it’s pretty good like that.

Section 1, step 2 states “update: To update the Watch Face with the current date and time. This is called every minute by the PineTime Firmware to refresh our Watch Face.”
Good to know that it’s touch screen. I would love if I could push a button on this watch and run a POST request to my server. Do you happen to know of that’s possible?
I think we may be talking about two different things with regards to corporate control. I’m saying that, in the case with Redhat specifically, that their injection of a fee to access the source code now no longer makes the code freely available to downstream repositories. If they comically charged a billion dollars to access the source code (with a GPL) it would practically become closed source, so I’m curious why any entity can charge any amount to access open source software. And if it’s totally legal with this type of license, doesn’t that mean that we should be avoiding GPL at all costs?
Correct me if I’m mistaken. What I read from your post sounds to me like you think that we should accept that a company will inject a revenue stream into the process that we all were working on as an open source project. We weren’t expecting to get paid, so why not allow the company to get paid, regardless of the downstream impacts for other projects that once relied on the project being completely free and open. Do I understand that properly? I don’t want to misrepresent your intent. I feel like I must be misunderstanding something.
It looks like Pinetime lets you customize the watch face with Rust, but is it touchscreen? Am I right in seeing that it only runs the update logic once every minute?
How does this work with the code license? If this is all fine, doesn’t this mean that we should be avoiding the kind of license they’re using in the future?
Thanks!
This is awesome! Thank you!
I have a lot of interest in software development (and the Rust programming language specifically). Any plans to add a software development community? I don’t know of any feeds, though.
My first programming language was QBasic, then Visual Basic, then Java, then C# (most experience with), then C++, then Python, and now Rust. Only when I learned C++ in college did I truly grasp the power of memory management. I think it’s important for new programmers to have some understanding of and experience with pointers, but it doesn’t need to be your first language. I think it’s okay to start with Python or C#, but you’ll want to go back and learn the hard stuff at some point (C++ and then Rust). Python will be super easy to learn the basics (data structures, algorithms, etc.). C# is also a good choice, but has you learning a few more things at the same time you’re trying to learn the basics.
They share a genealogy, but as programs are created and maintained in different languages, developers come to wish for different syntaxes that would (1) reduce how much code must be written to accomplish a common logical task, (2) make the code that’s written easier to read/understand, (3) reduce concerns about variable types until runtime, and/or (4) overly restrict not just the variable types but also if/when variables can be modified. This list is not exhaustive.
There is a partial programming language family tree here, showing which languages influenced other languages: https://www.researchgate.net/figure/Genealogy-of-Programming-Languages_fig36_260447599
I don’t miss the endless commercials.
Thanks for sharing your solution. I also would have thought that you could auto-redirect within the nginx config from “www” to the root domain, no? Idk if that would have any impact on the SSL functionality.
“Buying up Bethesda and trying to acquire Activision Blizzard is, Spencer argues, a way to compete with Sony.” This has the same logic as buying up the largest gasoline chains, making them exclusively pump gas for drivers of your cars, as a way of competing with other car manufacturers. Dangerous.
Why are so few people using Tampermonkey? It’s so useful. Is there an alternative that I don’t know about?
I was surprised at how beautiful some of the art could be. I did not expect to enjoy it as much as I do.
So is Meta just not going to display/embed news in Canada anymore or is this a temporary measure until they roll out their plan to pay publishers?
That’s strange. Please let me know what you find out.
