    • @hogstudio4819
      @hogstudio4819 3 роки тому

      @Nate Higgers Oh, you're talking about binary size. Well, if you build with release flags is 3.1 MB (you could also go no std and disable more things but who cares). Honestly, I don't think is too important, I thought you were talking about features or something like that.

    • @hogstudio4819
      @hogstudio4819 3 роки тому +1

      ​@Nate Higgers Memory consumption, cpu usage, thread usage, I can agree with that. However, I don't think disk space of a binary matters (and it doesn't scale linearly with the SLOC, of course). Anyways, if it is important for you, go with it. For me, memory safety is more interesting (and development environment, which in Rust - cargo - is particularly good).

    After hippity-hopping through Mint, Manjaro, Feren, Deepin, Ubuntu, Solus and others, I finally settled on Garuda KDE Dr460nized! Not only that it looks stunning, but it has exceptional hardware support and rock solid stability. Every other distro I tried had problems either with the drivers, the update manager or some KDE components that broke randomly. Kudos to Garuda team!

  • @LevKozlodoev
    @LevKozlodoev 3 роки тому

    I’ve got a prompt similar to the two line prompt with the arrows. I saw this German Jewish guy using it in one of his videos so I just changed my PS1 in .bashrc to do the same thing not because of aesthetic appeal but because it has important uses:
    1) the preamble is just simply username and current directory in different colors. Nothing fancy. I like to keep this stuff on a separate line because it can take up a lot of room and I like to give the command I’m writing as much space as I can.
    2) I actually start with a new line so that there’s a blank line between each entered command. The reason for this is that when I use tmux’s scroll back feature with vim keybindings I can reliable press ‘{‘ ‘}’ to quickly move the cursor across entire commands.
    3) Something I might add later to the first line is a timestamp of when the command was invoked (sometimes I need to remember what I did, knowing approximately how long ago it happened).

    Follow up question. I chose to use the Fedora package version of Starship so that I don't have to remember to manually update the package later. Well dang! The Fedora package is a quite stale version 0.42, several versions behind the current Starship version 0.50. Can you elaborate on how apps like Starship are updated in repositories? And, what would happen if I used the CURL command now to update my current install? I suppose I'd uninstall the packaged 0.42 version and start over with the CURL method of installation. I want to become more informed about the pros and cons are of using CURL vs the dnf package manager. I don't understand how to manage different installation methods. Thanks! I'm learning a lot from your channel.

    Seems like my system is failing to display any of the glyphs (like the snake one at 2.55). Unless I install an emoji font like noto-fonts-emoji which displays a full on emoji instead. Have tried various nerd fonts, which while they provide other icons, seem to be missing that one. Not sure what provides it.

    By the way, I decided to check out Qtile since you mentioned it was basically an Xmonad clone, as I'm a bit familiar with Python, but not at all with Haskell. Getting a bit tired of i3 lately. Is there a tiling window manager written in Rust actually?
