Somehow.

>>1053 it's called TUI, in principle you can make one just using your terminal's protocol. there are libraries like pdcurses, termbox2, crossterm or ncurses that include utility functions and add a compatibility layer so you don't have to learn the different terminal protocols. and then there are higher level libraries that even come with widgets and multi-platform input handling like tuibox, libtickit*, libvaxis or ratatui* these last two don't depend on any curses emulator and use their own, significantly less bloated, stacks there is also imtui if you want a terminal backend for imgui *: c **: zig ***: rust

I think I dreamed about programming something like this in C Weird

How much time did it take to finish? Great rice btw.

>>966 Ngl it only took me about a week after installing hyprland for the first time to get the bulk of it done. But tbf, i had been using kde for the better part of a year before switching.

hyperland is a waste of cpu usage and too much desktop effects

It has no soul tbh, very bland. looks like any other rice. 5/10

>>959 looks very well done very sleek too. though i am more a fan of skeuomorphism but hey, that is just me i guess

I once unpacked an entire system outside of chroot, rewriting my current one and breaking everything.

Very unfortunate and i am sorry for your loss. here's to a speedy recovery of the progress on your website :3

> what hypervisor should i use? I don't understand what you are trying to do with your hypervisor? I think in most cases, you should be fine with KVM though. I don't see why you would use anything else as it's (except for Xen and Hyper-V maybe) the most capable, stable and best-supported out of your list.

Don't use them. You don't need them.

There isn't a "good" hypervisor. Just know what works best for you. I recommend using VirtualBox, I personally use it. It's cross-platform (Windows, MacOS, Linux) and it's free. https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads If that's not interesting or useful for you, try using VMware or some other visualization computer software...

>>893 Are you crazy? It's dirty cheap for services they provide. mullvad and ivpn are probably the only ones that are not openly survey your internet activity. You won't find this quality for a cheaper price, ever.

>>894 Anything that's not free is too expensive for a NEET like me.

I don't know if this would fit your use case, but whenever I need to access a website as if I'm in another country, I just use Tor and configure it so the exit node is always in the country I want to access the site as. I've been doing this a lot lately to access Niconico as if I'm in Japan, since they recently applied a lot of restrictions to overseas users

>>895 True enough. Having no money sucks.

>>895 can relate

>>432 I really like this one, good job! mine is quite bland, my phone's battery doesn't last very long so an AMOLED friendly homescreen helps quite a bit. And to be honest, I'm trying to use my phone less

>>432 it just werks

I should probably switch it. I've been using this for the past two years already

I wanted new wallpaper and ringtone for my new phone, but nothing seems worthwhile, so I just stick to defaults, which is kinda sad.

Only if you're a cute maid.

OP is 200% underage and >>845 is a cp robot that has gained sentience

>>853 Who's bot you're bot!

all I asked for was a proxy Jesus lol

*this imageboard have been hacked*

Sadly there are none as of now I was actually planning on starting one (probably never)

>>789 I would be your first user ! (do it)

>>787 does lainchan not have stuff like that? i do not browse it often.

it is source-based. in my experience this means mainly three things: - if something breaks or doesn't compile I can fix it myself without having to search internet forums and such - I can set compilation flags to adapt programs to my needs and environment - it is easier to create and maintain my own packages for the package manager I use it mostly for Recreational Programming, I often browse github for libraries for my projects and most of the time they aren't popular enough to be in the package repository of any distro. with gentoo I can write an ebuild and have the library installed and maintained by the package manager in less than 5 minutes it fits my use-case well but I don't know if I would recommend it to other people. it isn't hard but you need some experience with c/c++ toolchains, autotools and cmake for it to be anything more than just another distro with less support than debian now that I think about it, one notable thing is that gentoo doesn't do stuff behind your back so to speak, so there aren't as many opportunities for things to break unexpectedly. I guess that can be a plus even for inexperienced users

and yes, I'm too dumb and lazy to learn nix/guix

>>694 Advantages? No. There is none. I've spent one entire year with Gentoo and three months with Funtoo, and, these two are simply distros for enthusiasts. That's it. Don't get me wrong, Portage is a good package manager, but you'll probably spend a lot of time with it, and it's just not worthy.

>>728 debian uses binary packages, right? based on my brief experience with debian I would guess you have to first create the packages and then add them to a local repository (this is, a local list of packages) >compile and "install" the package to a $dummy dir (I think cmake has flags to do this, similar to --prefix with ./configure) >mkdir -p $dummy/debian; nano $dummy/debian/control (https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-controlfields.html#debian-binary-package-control-files-debian-control) >dpkg-deb -b $dummy this will create a .deb for $dummy with the files that make install (or cmake install) would normally add to your /usr/local then you create a local repository in the arbitrary dir $lrep >mkdir $lrep >cd $lrep >cp -r dir/with/deb_files/* . >dpkg-scanpackages . > Packages >echo "deb [trusted=yes] file:/path/to/$lrep /" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/lrep.list replace $dummy with the name of your package and $lrep with the name of your local repository (same with /path/to/$lrep). here is an example of a debian control file https://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/debian-faq/pkg-basics.en.html#controlfile notice that the only required fields are package, version, architecture, maintainer and description

>>729 I want git pull, magick.sh, apt install, https://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/debmake-doc/index.en.html

>>730 what do you mean?

>>731 There's so much info about packaging. I want to 1. git pull/wget the source code of the release I want to compile 2. run magick.sh that will make me a package 3. apt install it I could implement all that but I lack mental capacity to comprehend all the documentation right now

>>732 without getting into source-based packages that sounds easy to automate in a very crude way, you don't really need debmake or debuild, just have a script download and untar the release, compile and install to a prefix, add the debian control file, generate the .deb, move it to your local repository, and update it's metadata the only problem with this approach is dependency detection, but considering you are already compiling the software, I assume you have the dependencies anyways. it is a bad practice but you can list the dependencies later I guess
