Well, Typst is explicitly a no-go for anyone who has to submit a manuscript, until it they get a damn HTML representation, so Pandoc can get it to LaTeX. There’s practically nowhere I could use Typst except my own notes, and I’ve tried!

Yeah, mint uses synaptic. Works well in my experience.
IrritableOcelot@beehaw.orgto Technology@beehaw.org•Philips to Offer Free Downloadable Files to 3D Print Replacement Parts - Core772·20 days agoWell, I doubt they’ll release one for my clippers since they’re discontinued, so that inspired me to go ahead and model a variable-depth one for myself. Based on some of the comments here, I thickened the comb blades to make them print more easily.
IrritableOcelot@beehaw.orgto Technology@beehaw.org•Philips to Offer Free Downloadable Files to 3D Print Replacement Parts - Core771·21 days agoThey havent released one for the razor I have, but honestly I might try modeling them myself. Doesn’t seem impossible, and I’ve been waning a deeper comb than they sell.

IrritableOcelot@beehaw.orgto Science@beehaw.org•A German experiment proved that simple concrete spheres make fantastic batteries. Now, California plans to submerge a 9-meter diameter sphere in the ocean and is already planning versions of 30 meters4·1 month agoThese aren’t relying on gravity, theyre relying on maintaining a vacuum, and concrete is extremely porous. They’re obviously sealing the inside of the chamber, but basically no coatings have a lifetime of 60 years for holding vacuum.

Then, just unplug the laptop in the evening until you get to 15-20%.
Trying to force the laptop to discharge while plugged in is colossally more trouble than it’s worth.

Regardless, the “card of the right approximate era” thing should work, unless there are specific patches for your card, which is unlikely.
IrritableOcelot@beehaw.orgto Linux@lemmy.ml•Removal of Deepin Desktop from openSUSE due to Packaging Policy Violation7·1 month agoIt seems to me that the offending dialog would only be triggered if you did a full fresh install. During the previous iteration of the testing, they probably had a VM somewhere with it installed; since the underlying packages were already present, the dialog would never have popped up.
IrritableOcelot@beehaw.orgto Free and Open Source Software@beehaw.org•Markdown and the Slow Fade of the Formatting Fetish10·1 month agoYup. Even for technical writing, markdown with embedded LaTeX is great in most cases, thanks largely to Pandoc and its ability to convert the markdown into pure LaTeX. There are even manuscript-focused Markdown editors, like Zettlr.

Edit: after a little bit of searching, it looks like it just loads webview2 to avoid having to load it if you open any of the add-in search panels. So the lagginess of new word is just inexcusable.

Will do! I didn’t make this clear, I did think labplot was a great software for folks who don’t already have the skillset to make plots directly in python – which is the majority of people, and probably the target audience.
Keep up the good work!
Mi was trying out labplot yesterday, and as far as I can tell it can only really plot, not do any sort of transformation or data analysis. The plotting UI itself is pretty nice and the plots look good, but for most of my use cases its worth it to just spin up a Jupyter notebook and work with MatPlotLib directly.
If it could become a general-purpose UI for matplotlib, thatd be fantastic, but its pretty limited in actual usability for me at the moment.

Sure, but they can’t build Pandoc translation against an experimental format, so no LaTeX anytime soon.
