because it's emacs itself, i don't need to remember the limitations of mg itself, and get access to things like TRAMP in it!
so! i made a tiny shell script to replace mg (microemacs) with normal emacs, but with a secondary tiny config that files off a few of the rough edges, runs in a terminal, but is otherwise extremely fast~
it uses nothing not already included in emacs itself, has mouse support, doesn't do that annoying .# and ~ backup file thing, but otherwise is just plain emacs!
basically, if you compile @Wunkolo's libsai, and install keneric, you can register .sai files as a specific mime type, make a .desktop for that mime and throw it into a place returned by kf5-config --path services, and it should just start generating if you have a keneric with
case "${mime}" in
image/x-paint-tool-sai)
/path/to/Thumbnail "${file}" "${outfile}"
exit ;;
neat! i managed to get paint tool sai thumbnails to work in linux~

oops, maybe i wasn't as happy with this one as i thought!
(i decided to try and turn it into something a little more finished~ ^^)

KDE:
Microsoft has blatantly copied us in Windows 11, and as a result, people are starting to see Plasma as a cheap clone of Windows again. (...) Making the panel float by default provides an immediate visual differentiation from Windows 11 and we hope this will help jolt users’ brains out of “ew, it’s slightly different from Windows 11” mode and into “wow, this is new and cool and I wonder what’s in it” mode.

Microsoft:
Microsoft is preparing to launch Windows 12 (...) with several new design ideas, including a new desktop experience with a ‘floating’ taskbar. Microsoft wants to create a floating effect for the taskbar by separating it from the desktop and rounding off the edges.

There's just one thing better than an off-by-one bug.

Yesterday, our company released the demo for Rise of the Triad: Ludicrous Edition, a remaster of the original Rise of the Triad PC game from 1994.
The remaster is the first project I've ever been a lead developer on, and it's a project that is very near and dear to my heart. ROTT was the first game I ever played where I felt like I could get a true glimpse of the people making the game, with all of the humor, in-jokes and fourth-wall breaking. It made game development seem _fun_, and I can't believe that I've had an opportunity to participate in bringing the game to a wider audience.
Give it a try! And if you're not a fan of blood and guts, this game allows you to turn the that stuff off.

so! what kinds of single board computers do people recommend now that raspberry pi isn't as great of an option?
splatoon 3
can confirm the s-blast is super-fun!
it really does use luna muscle memory, and the long range mode really does benefit from maining something that needs a lot of accuracy

Here’s your semi-regular reminder that your alt text should describe what’s in the image, based on the purpose of it.
If you are sharing a screenshot of a funny post, write out the text from the image, not “screenshot from tumblr”.
If you are sharing a histogram with the latest covid number, share the most important values or takeaways or a link to the data, not just “histogram with covid numbers”.
Otherwise blind and low vision screen reader users still don’t get the same info.
lbs: that should probably be good! (and hopefully not too spammy!) these are the drawings i'm currently most proud of~
maybe next year, i'll have drawn something for the day itself though!
