I tried imv and hated it. I just use feh (through XWayland) or mpv now.

As if I needed more reasons to love Stephen Fry!

What’s that tablet it’s running on?

Fascinating! How’s it compare to youtube-tui? I’m really interested in starting to use a program like this… the YouTube website is so unbearably slow.

Catchy manifesto, perhaps, but the Yippies historically (to the extent there even was such a group) were the absolute pinnacle of spectacle for its own sake. They got nothing done, and ultimately served only to hurt the public image of the legitimate countercultural movements in the long term. I think it seriously goes against the more pragmatic and action-oriented outlook of Solarpunk to take cues from these guys.

This is awesome! Thank you!

These look great!

I’d personally be curious, though, to experiment with non-standard input and UI designs on these phones. Although the touchscreen model has become standard, I’m not sure it’s ultimately the best for all things—I’ve been deeply enjoying my Garmin watch, for example, which has four buttons rather than a touchscreen. I think buttons, dials, etc., (besides simply feeling good to use) are faster for some things. If we’re gonna go against the grain, why not go crazy? I think physical buttons (or at least stuff like the back button on Android) may be to touchscreen interfaces what keyboard-centric workflows are to the mouse and GUI (in terms of efficiency).

I guess I should have written the post a bit more clearly. I’ve got the for_window part, it’s just that after I set the opacity for all windows app_id=.*, the following lines of the config cannot override that for the specific windows I want different opacities for.

Wow! Finally a niri user out in the wild! I’m super curious to hear about your experiences with it—do you find it to be stable enough for day to day use? What’s your workflow like? How’s it compare to what you’ve used before?
