I'm not using it myself as am on Tumbelweed but I do know it's quite similar to the idea OP is talking about. Oh and I couldn't find any references to it being beta on the website 🤷‍♂️

Could openSUSE MicroOS check the boxes for you?

Hang on...I'm testing and writing the procedure on my blog. I will post back here as soon as I'm done.

I was in a somehow similar scenario a few years ago and ended up using profiles.

I created and configured the "perfect" profile on my laptop and made a copy of it on my flash drive. Then whenever I needed to work on a new machine, all I had to was to copy the profile directory from my flash drive.

The details may have changed since then, but I think the idea is still applicable. HTH

I've only used Common Lisp. I find them quite handy as a light-weight abstraction to represent data for a simple script or a small program. Though, to my mind, they can get pretty unwieldy as the domain gets even a bit complex.

TIL about "just"...quite cool!

I was actually going to create a post to say that lemmy.ml performance has been somehow better in the past couple of days and it feels especially snappy in the past few hours! And then I saw this post 😊

To whomever is directly or indirectly involved: Keep up the good work 🚀

From the link:

the project does not accept patches from people who have not submitted an affidavit dedicating their contribution into the public domain.

So now I see. Since the project is in public domain there's no copyright/left around it. And if you want to contribute, you need to sign a paper that says you're dedicating your patch to the public domain.

If you want to extend it anyway, you’re basically required to fork I think that's not totally true. Forking is only one of the approaches.

Nonetheless, I had the wrong idea of how SQLite is governed 🤦 Thanks for the refresher and the link 🙏

Interesting! I had no idea about this fork.

But, seriously what is "open source but not open contribution"!? One of the main byproducts of the open source way is that if you think your ideas are not being heard, you can simply fork away. It looks like the author was referring to the fact that the way SQLite is governed, corporates cannot financially sponsor in exchange for project steering rights 🤷‍♂️

It's probably just me but that weird yet intentional wording made me lose interest in the actual offering 😑

I use Emacs (and libvterm) for almost all my terminal'y needs 😅

In rare cases where I need a terminal outside Emacs, I use Alacritty.

Here's the relevant config from ~/.config/alacritty/alacritty.yml:
