Piwigo does have a plugin for video upload and playback, and it looks like Live Photos are WIP or at least available through the website, not the app. There are some other neat plugins too like map/geotag support.

The app’s upload functionality can work well for backups too; it isn’t automatic, but it does support batch/folder uploads and remembering which photos you’ve already uploaded.

At that point I would just use std::span if you can, then you also get the standard container/iterator interfaces for free.

Honestly, I would argue that git submodule should count as a package manager. I simply list out the repos I want to pull in and update them as needed.

I can see the usability of this depending on the application though. My work is primarily in embedded; I only ever need to pull in a handful of small libraries.

Why is this a screenshot? Couldn’t you have just copied the text?

I can never stick with gnome/gtk because it’s been impossible for me to get a consistent theme/look across my apps.

Newer gnome/gtk has its DPI jacked so that the title bar, buttons, etc. are far too huge for my desktop or laptop, with the only fix being to tinker with the theme config files. Older gnome apps don’t have this issue, but their themes are incompatible so good luck finding a matching theme pair. Non-GTK apps would get stuck with the newer title bar — I swear it would be >100px tall. And doesn’t gnome/gtk 4 have an even newer theme interface that’s incompatible with 2/3?

I’ve since moved to openbox and tiling managers; they actually bother to get this right.

I recently got a Canon Pixma G3060 series printer. It’s one of those ink tank ones, so getting refills is no problem. It cost $300 CAD and came with ink bottles for ~7000 pages of printing; a pretty good deal if you’re printing often. I couldn’t find a good laser printer at this price point, certainly not a color one.

Linux works great with it once it’s set up, no proprietary drivers or extra junk. CUPS does wireless printing just fine, and I can use Xsane to scan documents too.
