The android auto equivalent for cars would be something I’d be interested in, that’s the only reason I had to reenable google on my phone. I don’t see any open source software that do it.

I mean there’s the EWMM, emacs based windows manager. So it can absolutely do anything.
But doing something because you can, vs because it’s useful is different. I like emacs fo text edit. I open images and pdf in the process of writing documents but that’s about it.
Emacs for everything…
/jk I mean everything text.
People copying gpt commands into terminal is bound to be fked by the troll commands, right? Please.
thevoidzero@lemmy.worldto Open Source@lemmy.ml•How to delete a certain element present on all pages of a pdf?3·3 months agoI don’t know how comfortable you are writing your own, but pdf saves the components with coordinates, bounding box etc so you should be able to automate it with a small script that reads pdf components directly.
Also try qpdf to convert pdf into qdf format, then you can open it in a text editor, find the element you want to remove. Look at examples of few pages, find the pattern and do regex replace. Make sure to keep a copy and check the diff before accepting it.
When workers die, you no longer have labor. When scientists die you no longer have their intelligence.
thevoidzero@lemmy.worldto Open Source@lemmy.ml•is there something about rust which precludes copyleft licensing?1·6 months agoYeah, and there’s no plan to stabilize the ABI because it’s developing.
You can use C ABI for some data formats, but you’re limited on what you can use (mostly primitives). There’s a crate stable-abi or abi-stable that provides a way to do things to keep it stable, but since it’s external crate it has limitations.
I know it’s frustrating because I am writing something in rust that loads functions in runtime. I thought it’d be easy because programs written in C do it all the time. Rust gives a lot of advantages but working on dynamic loading hasn’t been fun. And there aren’t a lot of resources about this either.
thevoidzero@lemmy.worldto linuxmemes@lemmy.world•Almost as annoying as the windows evangelists2·6 months agoYup. I made a scientific analysis program. Using CLI and your own editors you can do so much. And instead of focusing on making the algorithms, I had to focus on making a GUI for months because people need things to click.
And then even with very responsive and easy GUI, with like just 5 types of “views” and probably like <5 buttons/inputs each, people are like “it seems complicated” within like 1 minutes of demo. They haven’t even tried to use it or tried to learn anything. I even modeled the views to be as similar to another software they use.
I feel like people just don’t like computers.
thevoidzero@lemmy.worldto Open Source@lemmy.ml•is there something about rust which precludes copyleft licensing?3·6 months agoIIRC Same compiler version doesn’t mean the ABI will be the same. Each compilation may produce different representation of data structures in the binary. Depending on the optimization and other things.
thevoidzero@lemmy.worldto Open Source@lemmy.ml•What projects does the opensource world lack5·7 months agoPerfect, it looks like the thing I want. Hopefully it can do multiple devices in different networks. I’ll test it out when I can.
Thank you :)
thevoidzero@lemmy.worldto Open Source@lemmy.ml•What projects does the opensource world lack6·7 months agoI’d like a local filesharing option. Where a single folder would be synced in my phone from home computer when I’m at home, and from work computer and phone when I’m at work. Without using cloud sync between them only when I’m physically traveling between them, that’s good enough for most use cases of cloud sync that I want for work.
thevoidzero@lemmy.worldto Open Source@lemmy.ml•What projects does the opensource world lack2·7 months agoSometimes you get into skill issue, or time issues. I make some softwares that I need, but I don’t have advertising skills to make people use it.
And sometimes I want to make something, but I don’t have the necessary skills.
For example I’d like a local filesharing option. Where a single folder would be synced in my phone from home computer when I’m at home, and from work computer and phone when I’m at work. Without using cloud sync between them only when I’m physically traveling between them, that’s good enough for most use cases of cloud sync that I want for work.
Then you’re just running bash scripts with bash. You’re not running bash scripts with fish.
