Sometimes it is for the best.

Eh? TV boxes? Just use a web brower. What is a TV box?

Change is not always for the best. I used to like Linux for the stability.

Linux + GNU + systemd…jumped to BSD a long time ago now…

You could use newsboat -x reload && newsboat -x print-unread as a good start to get the status of unread articles and print a notification (for example using dunst) when the number increases.

Linux should have been a developer’s platform. Sadly it’s incredibly commercial now. Won’t be long before it becomes like Windows for the gAmErS.

Cool. Though I like to use vifm with the tree command.

I use sway or i3 compositor to launch various streaming sites in Chrome or Firefox in kiosk mode. Also Kodi and Steam. I have shortcuts for these mapped to function keys on a combo keyboard touchpad. Works well as support for streaming services in Kodi is not comprehensive

repetition…repetition…repetition…repetition…repetition…repetition…repetition…repetition…lol

You could definitely be right. I think I remeber storage of some icons under /usr/local/share/... but I could be wrong!

At the end of the day, just move providers. Can’t beat the hydra!

Normal under load. Not normal at idle. Check the thermal paste if it’s the CPU.

Maybe it’s desktop environment dependent. Better to help yourself by: find / -iregex '.*jpg$' -o -iregex '.*jpeg$'

I like Kitty Graphics. I like graphics in the terminal for two reasons:

1. integration with MC (midnight commander) style directory browser to show previews of jpegs, pdfs, etc.
2. w3m web browser. I like being able to use that super-light weight webrowser when working/coding to keep me focused.

Reason (1.) works with Kitty. (2.) does not. (2.) is pretty esoteric so I think sixel will probably die out soon due to the user base?

• Ctrl + Alt + F[1-0] to access other TTYs which might still be responsive even if your desktop environment is unresponsive. Pull up top/htop and ID the problematic process to kill.

• Agree with using an oom killer.

• Do you need more swap? Can use swap file if expanding swap partition is problematic.

Thought out choice but disappointing nevertheless:

My stance for now is that Ghostty will not support sixels.
