#ReleaseThursday #OpenSourceXmas A little present (to some of you)... Been meaning to release these recent additions before the holidays, but only getting around to it now. The most important new things are these:

Screenshot of a section of the thi.ng/units package readme giving an overview of the new formula DSL provided. The included code examples show how to:

- compute weight in grams of A4 paper with 320 grams per square meter
- compute weight in kg of 1/2 inch thick 200x300mm glass plate
- same as previous but using the `glass` density preset

Practically finished setting up Universix-Saigon, my Cosmic bootc image based on a solid Bluefin base. It's live on github at thesaigoneer - universix-saigon.
Many edits in applications, flatpaks and QoL, read up on it in the readme.md. Or just give it a go!

Maybe we should establish a "maintenance.md" practice just like "readme.md" or "LICENSE" where you just clearly outline the amount of maintenance the project/development team are planning to put into the code base and under which conditions.
I have seen that a few times but maybe it should be more of a standard.

Just realised my profile README has been broken since February 2025 due to some changes on the GitHub API. I thought it was working because of lowlighter/metrics.
Fixed it and modernized it a bit. Sorry for the inconvenience.

After what can only be considered mean to the hardware, the Sisyphus encoding client version 1.6.3 is released with full support for Av1an. While I won't guarantee it won't eat your pets, I can say that I've encoded enough using the Av1an module that I'm confident you'll at least get some nice videos in return.
The documentation has also been updated as well on the main site along with the README.md with some better directions on getting it up and running.

So where’s actually the correct place to send a feature request to #KDE Plasma Addons?
Its GitLab readme says that I should “report bugs and feature requests in KDE's bugtracker under the plasmashell category”, but that requires me to choose a Component and there’s no “Plasma Addons” component or anything like that.
The bugs.kde page also says that I should, if I’m “not sure this is actually a bug, instead post about it at discuss.kde.org”.
So if each place tells me to post it somewhere different, where should I post it?

Like global search and replace but don’t like surprises?
Check out serpl – a handy little command-line app that gives you a visual preview of the changes you are about to make. You can even go in and remove the replacements you don’t want from the source previews. The regex support appears to be basic, however (I couldn’t get a negative lookbehind to work).

Screenshot of me serpl with Search, Replace, Result List and Preview panes in a command-line interface. Search has /setup and [Match Case] mode selected, Replace has /settings with [Simple] mode selected. The Results List shows about 20 items and the selected file is shown in the preview pane with three replacements in diff-style red/green highlighting on lines 27, 28, and 35.
