This release includes major improvements to performance, specifically optimizations of database queries. Special thanks to @phiresky, @ruud, @sunaurus and many others for investigating these.

Love to see the community coming together to improve things !

there is a page about this on the lemmy docs: https://join-lemmy.org/docs/users/05-censorship-resistance.html

this made me realize one of the things I like about the old design is how many posts you can see at a glance.

it comes down to wayland, i3 only supports Xorg, sway only supports wayland.

as far as features goes sway was built to be pretty much a drop in replacement for i3 with a few improvements.

long time i3 user, now switched to sway

I think its a nice alternative to developers to offer software that is not available on your package manager, but having a distro offer multiple different ways of installing a package is not a good idea, I’m talking about ubuntu of course, as a user I just want to apt-get update/upgrade and be sure my system is up to date, snap undermines that because I’m not sure anymore. also I don’t understand why I need to close the app I’m using to update it with snap, if the app is containerized I should be able to install multiple versions without affecting each other.

I mean yeah, the only reason people have to believe elder scrolls 6 is in development is that teaser from 2018, and honesty they probably only made that teaser to temper expectations.

1. content mods: there are mods that add new content to the game like new quest lines, companions, or even new regions to the game.
2. new challenges: limit yourself to only using magic or not using potions/food items for healing, or using survival mods that require eating/drinking
3. role playing: you don’t need to be the dragonborn every playthrough, try being a merchant or a mercenary, etc.

love parallel !, for example encoding a bunch wavs to opus:

parallel --eta 'opusenc --bitrate 256 {} {.}.opus' ::: *.wav

love cat -n, when working with csv files I often use a command like this to figure out which column I need:

head -n1 file.csv | sed 's/,/\n/g' | cat -n

duc, aur: it indexes file sizes of all your files and lets you browse it with a ncurses ui, for me that lives in the terminal this is a very handy tool for finding where all my disk space went.

I feel like calling it a galaxy makes it sound like its a bigger deal than it actually is, but I like it.
