OpenAI Sneezes, and Software Firms Catch a Cold
OpenAI revealed last week the custom AI tools it uses internally. The news sent some software companies into turmoil.

Why did I trust you Oracle? I installed VirtualBox, it was in the Fedora Repos even. And it promptly trashed all my networking. Why? Im reinstalling Fedora 42 Sway, its just quicker then trying to fix things anymore.

Heyo, I want to share this #photo from a walk in June near #Ebersberg. It's been quite a nice walk, yet no SUPER photos. But maybe enough to bring a smile on your face :)

The gop controls the House, Senate, and the White House. It is their government.
If the government shuts down or the government stays open, that is on the gop.

I don't understand how people actually enjoy using sway. I live in terminals more than most, but I also enjoy having fancy features available like window controls and maybe a browseable menu of applications installed on my system. Sway's level of asceticism feels performative.

From the trenches:
-AerynOS is hampered for me by the clunky state of Cosmic;
- Lubuntu doesn't install snaps ootb ( at least with a minimal install), why can't all spins be like that. I know, but still this is a 'good' Ubuntu;
- Niri doesn't pick up the audio, whereas hyprland and sway do;
- In preparation for LFS I installed Trixie KDE. Yes, and I could all be done with the nonsense and be quietly happy with it 🤣 Solid.

Sonnet 066 - LXVI
Tired with all these, for restful death I cry,
As to behold desert a beggar born,
And needy nothing trimm'd in jollity,
And purest faith unhappily forsworn,
And gilded honour shamefully misplac'd,
And maiden virtue rudely strumpeted,
And right perfection wrongfully disgrac'd,
And strength by limping sway disabled
And art made tongue-tied by authority,
And folly, doctor-like, controlling skill,
And…

So, after a week spent on #Wayland with #sway and #hyprland, it's back to xorg and Enlightenment for me. WebEx is unusable in tiling WMs and on Wayland, and muscle memory with E is too strong. Year of the …

Cowboys fans on Twitter react to roster cuts, opinions sway on Vaughn, defensive depth https://cowboyswire.usatoday.com/story/sports/nfl/cowboys/2025/08/27/cowboys-roster-cuts-spark-strong-fan-reac…

Now Codeberg is working so well with cosmix-saigon (results to be published today) it's time to try to migrate idefix-saigon (hyprland, sway and niri, with nwg-shell, on top of universal blue) also. With the git runners included it might be more challenging, let's see.
Asterix will certainly be set up again by me, an auto-updating atomic KDE on Nix can't be missing from the library!

I don't want to miss #mountainMonday !
Ahw I so want to go there again. That day I didn't even want to go that far - but the weather and all was just great so I went on to the next summit.
I just knew that I should hurry to get back before the sun moved too far. Becasue - well - autumn sun is nicely warm - but

Sway, Heather B.

JustaguyFreeBSD. Of course I got distracted y'day 🤣 Ended up basically replicating and using Drew's setup for Sway on FreeBSD. A very nice setup, applications, wallpapers, ricing et al. Vid about it on the Tubes, this might end up in it's own repo with me. Thanks @… !

So. That laptop had a quick Slackware install (the nwg iso by @… ; I'm running that hyprland on the desktop of course). Then I added niri to it and removed hyprland and sway 😜! I'll look up that previous config.kdl and start tweaking that Thinkpad tomorrow. With the included DankMaterialShell. Already looking forward to it 🥳

Good morning!
Here are some photos from the #Mummelsee in the #Schwarzwald . We wanted to visit it last year already but somehow just managed to go there this time.
The lake itself is scenic and beautiful. But definitely a "hot spot". Luckily we were there at a day/time w…

Home. And the advantage of the kitchen sink.
The dwm part of my tilers setup, combining sway, hyprland, niri and dwm.
Slackware is one of the very few distros that enables you easily to have both wayland as well as x11 in one setup.
Dots on my Codeberg @ thesaigoneer/slackware-tilers.

Can tell me all you want, but Slackware is awesome. Had those iso to usb issues, remember? Only with Slackware, for now. Obviously there's a standardized script for that.
Iso2usb, couldn't be more simple.
Booted into the latest Slackeroni iso, with KDE 6.5 beta on it, all good.
Last year i travelled with hyprland, sway and cosmic on Slackware, this year I'll probably bring KDE 6.5 to the party.
After thickening the plot, the fog clears 🥳
