↳ In-reply-to » Hmmm are there really no decent Wayland (desktop) compatible image viewers that don't drag in Mesa and all it's hundreds of dependences or GCC and libgcc and it's multi-hour long build time or Rust? geez

@prologic@twtxt.net Yeah, Rust is quite popular in the Wayland scene, it seems.

In image viewer in 170 lines? Show me. 😅

@movq@www.uninformativ.de I looked into swagimg. That’s the thing, The latest version pulls in fark’n C++ (geez fuck) and luajit. Anything else I’ve round for Wayland depdns on Rust (wtf?!) – So I built my own in Pure Go. It’s wonderful, so simple, only ~170 lines of Go 🤣

@prologic@twtxt.net The only image viewer I like in general is this one:

https://codeberg.org/nsxiv/nsxiv

It’s for X11, though.

Allegedly, this Wayland image viewer is somewhat similar to nsxiv, maybe you’ll like that? 🤔

↳ In-reply-to » It’s ten thousand million degree celsius outside and I have to go to a birthday party today because wElL iTs My BiRtHdAy ToDaY, I think I’m going to die, send help.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de It is horribly hot and humid here, and is not even 08:00. AC ran overnight for 3+ hours. It is going to be hellish, not going to lie.

Your birthday, or someone else’s? Either way, happy birthday! 🥳🎂 May many more years come, with good health… and less heat! ☺️

↳ In-reply-to » @lyse oh yes! And, when I mow the lawn (which reminds me I need to mow the front soonish), you can add dust, bugs, and grass blades to the equation. Just “lovely”. 😂

@bender@twtxt.net Right, can’t think of anything more pleasing than that! If only I were a landscape gardener, I could enjoy that all day long. :-D

So I’ve been working on GoNIX the last few days… Which is derived from µLinux – At least it’s entire build process. GoNIX however has a 100% Go userland, including the init process, package and service management.

Now… As an experiment, because I was able to make much process on enhancing the build tools and package management, I decided to see if I could build a “Desktop” Gui of sorts…

I still wanted it to be fairly minimal and lightweight. So I went with wayland (of course) and labwc and yambar. So far I’m liking the result 👌 42 packages in the wayland-desktop meta port. Not too bad. Not sure if I can slim that down anymore… But trying to avoid Mesa/GL as that drags in far too much “cruft”.

haihaihiii! mbox.blue is awesome ;)

So nice of the very few folks that have discovered mbox to say such nice things about my little experimental project and free service offering 😁

↳ In-reply-to » I went to check on the fireflies this season. But I didn't see any. Instead lots of moths. At first, I thought it might have been still too light, but it was already dark enough for me to miss and destroy a snail shell. Bummer. Maybe it was too wet tonight. Although, it's probably just another or two weeks until my glowing friends will finally show up.

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Sounds lovely! (I think. Not sure about spider webs and such. 😅)

I woke up to 26°C this morning. 🥵

↳ In-reply-to » @lyse Oh wow, we’re talking about such a detailed level. 🤔

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Yeah, that would also be fine with me. I certainly do like the “arbitrary” in your comment.

While writing the article, I also thought about something like that:

date := time.Date(2026, 6, 19,
    17, 0, 0, 0, time.UTC)

Or possibly:

date := time.Date(
    2026, 6, 19,
    17, 0, 0, 0, time.UTC,
)

But it’s four lines for a damn timestamp. I also contemplated whether a comment acting as a separator is all that’s needed:

date := time.Date(2026, 6, 19, /**/ 17, 0, 0, 0, time.UTC)

I might like that the most. Not entirely sure yet. It kinda feels like a hack, but still a little elegant. Add your comment on top and we’re golden. Maybe?

I deliberately excluded them as this only distracted from the points I wanted to make. And I also realized that this example was just not ideal at all. Perhaps I should add them nevertheless?

If I ever invented a programming language, a much more human readable timestamp representation of some sort, RFC 3339 or very close to that would be part of that language. Something along the lines of /pattern/ for regexes in certain languages.

↳ In-reply-to » In the light of current events, I will first consult my pillow and only then write an article about readable code.

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Oh wow, we’re talking about such a detailed level. 🤔

I agree with most of what you said.

I probably would have written it like this:

// Arbitrary reference date.
//                   Y  m   d   H  M  S  nano
date := time.Date(2026, 6, 19, 17, 0, 0, 0, time.UTC)

Would this be better or worse? 😅
