  • I’m disappointed, but not surprised… I have followed since the first announcement and gave up hope around 2020. Every dev update was “we made 1 step forward and 5 back” with no real substance to show for it.

    Assuming the trailers are real gameplay though, it looks like they could have and should have released an alpha years ago. Not sure how they thought it wouldn’t work as Minecraft released in pre-alpha and it worked out in the end. A shame we’ll probably never see the code or even a compiled build from all these people’s work.


  • on most of my systems I get tired of constantly lsing after a cd so I combine them:

    cd(){
        cd $1 && ls
    }
    

    (excuse if this doesn’t work, I am writing this from memory)

    I also wrote a function to access docker commands quicker on my Truenas system. If passed nothing, it enters the docker jailmaker system, else it passes the command to docker running inside the system.

    docker () {
            if [[ "$1" == "" ]]; then
                    jlmkr shell docker
                    return
            else
                    sudo systemd-run --pipe --machine docker docker "$@"
                    return
            fi
    }
    

    I have a few similar shortcuts for programs inside jailmaker and long directories that I got sick of typing out.




  • Media watch status no longer persists on media rename. When you move or rename your media files, previously Jellyfin remembered the watch status based on external IDs alone; now it uses an actual reference to the database entry. This is a transitional change and we are working on a better way to handle that in a future version.

    I hope they do figure out a solution for that soon… Until that’s fixed I’m going to stay on 10.10.7 for a while.









  • Zen browser at the moment, it includes a lot of UI and UX tweaks that I was already trying to do via CSS and extensions in Firefox, but it does them a lot cleaner. Definitely an opinionated appearance though, won’t be for everyone but so far I am enjoying it. My only gripe has been that I can’t disable workspaces and keeping them active seems to keep a hidden tab open all the time, so closing a window always asks me to confirm “closing 2 tabs” even though I have 1 or none open.

    I previously was using Librewolf to disable Mozilla’s tracking, but after it wiped my browsing history and made some weird user agent change which broke almost every website I have given up on it. The extra bit of privacy wasn’t worth the headache, and the TOR-like defaults exemplify that it’s a more hardcore browser than I need. As far as I can Zen browser is about the same as vanilla Firefox for privacy issues, so not perfect but not as bad as Chrome.

    I refuse to use anything Chromium anymore, but I tried out a bunch of those as well some years ago. Vivaldi was my favourite for it’s features, but man whatever they did to tweak the UI resulted in a lot of bugs… I had weekly crashes on that browser over two different hardware setups.
