Recently found out about ouch. Found it really useful for decompressing files in the terminal as I can’t seem to remember all the flags for tar, gzip, zip, rar and all the rest one may encounter which all seem to use different syntax.

It seems to be working for me.
Do you have a github or codeberg link?
I didn’t think anyone would have interest in it so i haven’t uploaded it. After new year’s I could clean it up a bit and host it on github.
Maybe we should add it to awesome-lemmy?.
I think it may be e a bit too early for that. At the current state it supports dynamic fetching of the feed in the background (quite buggy), paginating and displaying long posts and displaying top level comments only. At the current state it’s quite enough for me to enjoy a few (more like a few dozen) posts, but definitely not anywhere close to “awesome”.
That made me laugh so hard. Are there really no clients for linux mobiles?
Thanks, I’ve only heard of sixel, but never really read into it. Sounds promising.
I went with chafa as it’s terminal agnostic and supports various modes.
Then again, I’m not really sure a tui frontend needs high quality image rendering. Earlier I even considered going completely 1bit braille or just ASCII just so that the image doesn’t take all of the focus at the expense of the post body.
As mentioned by another commenter, I believe opening the full image in an external viewer is a much better solution, not to mention easier to implement.
Async programming is really quite hard to wrap your head around. Currently I’m mostly struggling with excessive memory consumption.
There is one named neonmodem overdrive but it is buggy.
It really is buggy, iirc I couldn’t even get it to run properly.
It also support discourse forums any plan for this?
I really don’t have any plans (or even a name) for the app, as I’ve just started playing around with pythorhead yesterday. I just hoped posting a prototype or a proof of concept might spark a discussion and maybe inspire someone much more competent than me.
Uploaded it to catbox.moe and then just pasted the link in the url field when creating the post. Hope that helps :)
Thank you, that’s so kind! I’ll probably try to tackle the comments first as they come quite messy from the api, then I’ll probably give the images a go.
To be honest, I’m hoping this project doesn’t get out of my league too quickly as a have almost no experience with working with apis.
While complex tuis are definitely not my cup of tea (I prefer cli tools to be simple, otherwise I would probably use a proper gui), I’m really happy that I’m not the only one wishing for a way to access lemmy from the terminal.
I did, but i was going for something really small and simple, more like an ebook reader than a webui.
Yeah I keep running into similar issues when trying to build pretty much anything on windows; for stuff that can’t be ‘nicely’ configured & dependency-managed through an IDE, windows is pure pain.
You seem to be right. It finally compiled successfully a few minutes ago, installed pygobject successfully, following the instructions and it claims the gi module could not be found, even though pip lists it as installed. I really don’t know how Windows developers deal with such things. Do they just avoid known bad libraries?
As for installing Python itself; I think I’d stick with the plain installer from python.org, and afterwards, pip. In case of dependencies that are hard to get through PyPi, I think anaconda might be worth looking at as well: https://www.anaconda.com/download
I’ve decided on following the exact steps in the wingtk guide, as my attempts to deviate from them resulted in quicker failure, hence installing it through choco.
It really sounds like PySide would fit your use case better. Check out this website for a great starting point: https://www.pythonguis.com/pyqt6/ – the author also has an entire book on packaging PySide programs for cross-platform distribution.
While I’m sure Qt may be a better option, this project is a companion app to my PhD thesis to make the algorithms discussed somewhat easily available to a somewhat general audience and is completely unpaid so I really don’t feel like learning a new GUI framework for it. Maybe I’ll make a quick and ugly pysimplegui UI for Windows users.
Anyway, I’m sorry for ranting. Thank you so much for the suggestions and explanations! It’s really appreciated.
Tagging @cadekat@pawb.social as they’ve asked the same question.
Last night i was failing because of some VS components missing (iirc cl.exe, which was actually not missing at all).
Today, I’ve reinstalled Windows 10, to get a fresh start and follow wingtk’s guide. First of all it failed as “choco install python” (as mentioned in the guide) installs python 3.12, which does not include distutils.
After that I’ve tried uninstalling python and installing python --version 3.10.11 with choco and got the same error as gvsbuild still defaulted to python 3.12, even after a few reboots.
Not knowing how to clean it up, decided on reinstalling Windows again, and installing python 3.10 only. Half an hour ago the build process failed for some (probably) network related issues ( ).
Currently I’ve installed a driver for the wireless card instead of using the built in one, and the build process has been stuck at “Opening https://download.gnome.org/sources/pango/1.51/pango-1.51.0.tar.xz …” for at least the last half hour.
As for msys2, I haven’t went that route yet, as I can’t quite understand what it is and what it does. I can understand even less how to package a package installed with msys2 using either PyInstaller or nuitka, to have a (hopefully) single file executable, as I’m trying to distribute the app to my students, which are extremely non-technical.
I wish there was something like Wine for Windows.
Yes, a while ago, at the beginning of the project, and eventually decided against it. GTK, despite it’s terrible documentation for python was just a more robust desktop app framework.
I quite heavily rely on sliders, dropdown lists and a file browser and while it’s possible to do that in pygame, it’s just too clunky.
It may be a bit minimal for your taste, but I wholeheartedly recommend Alpine. I’m currently running AdGuard and opentracker on a RaspberryPi 1B with Alpine edge, and the experience has been rock solid.
Do you know if there is a EU-wide place to report such behavior?
The biggest privately owned TV channel in my country not only does that, but actually just redirects you to a pdf file if you want to “manage cookies”. And it’s not like I can submit a complaint on a national level, as the ruling party’s website uses google analytics without a cookie notice at all.
I’m not completely sure about it, but I believe both TF2 and HL2 are native ports that Valve did themselves. Could be the reason.
I’m glad you’ve liked it, and I hope it runs nicely from HDD.
If you decide to keep Budgie I highly recommend the window shuffler extension that helps with arranging windows.
Yes, I am. Depending on whom you base your ideas on what art is you can defend the case that art has two main components - its conceptual (the political or other ideas of the artist) and its perceptual part (the craftsmanship).
In this case the conceptual part of the work is completely removed, leaving only the craftsmanship. I see no problem in sharing this, and I see no possible slippery slope here.
In short, just because someone is a fascist does not mean they can’t be a good craftsman, and should not be seen and analyzed. Take for example Adolf Dassler’s Adidas.
Quite frankly, I would also love to see what the original cartoon looks like. Not because I would agree with it, but because I want to know how extreme rightwingers represent me (or us, I guess). I want to know how their propaganda looks like. And I personally believe we should all know and care about it, if we want to combat it successfully.
+1 I’m surprised nobody else mentioned it. Alpine seems to be able to run on anything.
