I'd say Juana Manso laptops are usable with FreeBSD. sure, you lose brightness control, you can't see how much battery remains, (I didn't try wifi but the 9650AC chip seems to be supported), but it is usable. audio works, USB works, video works when you load the Intel drivers.
i made my own personal website [0] that loads in less than 512kb; with a mini bio, a blog (with RSS support), images, links to friends' websites, stuff i made/maintain, and some fluff[y boys] like a walking Ralsei [from Deltarune] that follows the cursor, a music player, and some secrets/easter eggs ;)
then there's another project i have, which is a download-and-run version of Minecraft, where you just download one binary (most likely an AppImage) and can run the full game. it will be for personal use so i shouldn't worry about copyright.
i'm also making my "own" minimal tiling window manager for Linux [1] (which is a fork of [2]) with my custom keybinds and [planned] controller (joystick) navigation support.
and lastly, i made yet another fetch software: jotafetch (*jota*lea's implementation of neo*fetch*). it should be available to read and download a
on my website [3] (i haven't packaged it for mainstream distros yet, and i probably won't).
I really like the style with the monospace font and the catppuccin theme. the UI is smooth and very simple. maybe too simple.
that said, I got a network error after downloading nearly half of the playlist, and now I have to start over. I will blame my network for it, but I'd like to have a stronger retry mechanism.
regarding the network error, i do apologize for that. for now i've implemented a better retry mechanism but i'm still working on making it even better - more specifically a b better ui for for it
I really like the idea, as well as the "terminal" style the site has. however, I consider that an additional daily spend of $2 could be avoided. perhaps by caching common questions (like "what is this?"), or by using free tiers on API providers.
or, maybe I'm just too cost-conscious.
either way, the API limit is currently your "Achilles' heel", as it has already caused the bot to stop responding.
Honest question: do you want them to? Most of us aren't running high-profile OSS projects, and drive-by PRs are a pretty widespread complaint about GitHub's model of opensource
i have my own personal website which i customized to my own liking (catppuccin theme, walking pet, music player [with animations and iOS-like blur effects], etc.) and even added a tiny blog section, where i usually post, well, anything i'd post on traditional, centralized social media.
i made it so, if something is relevant enough (i.e. it is something i'm actually proud of, or is something with enough quality), it is posted on my site first, and just then reposted to other platforms. i even added a rss feed if anyone wanted.
and last but not least, i optimized it so it loads within less than 512kb (333kb as of writing this, i might add or remove more stuff in the future that might change the total size), and it is fully functional on devices as old as Android 6 (i don't have anything older to test, sorry about that).
wait, is that actually good? or is it just a way to vaguely refer to someone without being inherently wrong?
