Linux@programming.dev•Take Control of systemd with This Rust-Based TUI Tool
1·1 day agoI tried to install this on my headless Ubuntu server laptop I keep on the corner and it won’t run. Does this TUI rely on graphical libraries?
The main advantage of CLI is that its easier to instruct people on what to do and easier to get answers from people about how to use a CLI, and you can copy paste. If you know how to use the GUI though it can be a powerful tool as well.
You’ll probably want to switch off it one day, but when I first got into Linux I used Ubuntu and everything just worked. Even when I had a laptop with a touchscreen, the touchscreen worked no problem. Its a great place to start imo, but not a great place to stay as when you become more proficient with Linux you’ll start to see the distro’s limitations.
I just ignore Discord updates lol
I think its just a matter of what your used to. People from the unix world would find dir confusing and copy too long.

2·28 days agoYou can try out most linux distributions without even installing them. Just plug in the usb, boot from it and choose not to install and you can play around with it. You can try multiple linux oses this way before considering an installation. I’d recommend trying Mint, Ubuntu, Kubuntu and Bazzite (if you’re a gamer).
There are some extra steps you’ll need to take in the BIOS, as in my experience modern computers tend to not have usb booting as the first priority at start up, so it just boots straight into windows no matter what.

Programming@programming.dev•Detect unused imports in Kotlin without IntelliJ?
2·1 month agoI got the Kotlin compiler using sdkman, the closest thing to that command I found was: kotlinc -Xreturn-value-checker=full $(find . -name ‘*.kt’)
It doesn’t really work, it just gives errors for every single import that comes from a library (libKTX in my case)

Linux@programming.dev•Can I finally start using Wayland in 2026?
1·1 month agoYou can get a third-party compositor such as picom or distros such as KDE Plasma will come with their own. They can cause problems in my experience, do not recommend using them.

No Stupid Questions•I am so scared of nuclear war, how do I cope with it?
141·1 month agoThe best way to cope with the news is to ignore it. There is no reason to read about and obsess over things you have no power to change. Focus on your own life and the people around you, learn mindfulness and deeply ponder the structure of trees, the intricate shapes of the clouds, whatever nature is around you, and breathe.

1·4 months agoIts called Gaia XI - Its the old MMO, Final Fantasy XI, but its been revived by fans. The complexity and nature of the game make it pretty hard to get it running on something other than Windows.
Snaps filled up my root directory with all their ridiculous and mandatory backups. I had to get rid of them. Flatpaks are alright, but nothing beats native packages.







Send it to me, I have plans.
