↳ In-reply-to » There are no really good GUI toolkits for Linux, are there?

@prologic@twtxt.net Hm, same startup delay. (Go is not an option for me anyway.)

It’s hard to tell why all this is so slow. Maybe in this particular case it has something to do with fonts: strace shows the program loading the fontconfig configs several times, and that takes up a bulk of the startup time. 🤔 (Qt6 or Java don’t do that, but they’re still slow to start up – for other reasons, apparently.)

To be fair, it’s “just” the initial program startup (with warm I/O caches). Once it’s running, it’s fine. All toolkits I’ve tried are. But I don’t want to accept such delays, not in the year 2025. 😅 Imagine every terminal window needing half a second to appear on the screen … nah, man.

Ironclad 0.7.0 and 0.8.0 released, adds RISC-V support
We’ve talked about Ironclad a few times, but there’s been two new releases since the 0.6.0 release we covered last, so let’s see what the project’s been up to. As a refresher, Ironclad is a formally verified, hard real-time capable kernel written in SPARK and Ada. Versions 0.7.0 and 0.8.0 improved support for block device caching, added a basic NVMe driver, added support for x86’s SMAP, switched from KVM to NVMM for Ironcla … ⌘ Read more

↳ In-reply-to » Thanks @prologic, thats what I get for not checking enough, my yarn service had deactivated for some reason. Restarted and all good. Maybe my VPS ran out of memory or something, I should probably look deeper into the logs

@eldersnake@we.loveprivacy.club What version are you running btw? It’s probably time you upgraded and time I released a new version finally 😂 If you’re running a version that’s pre-SQLite-cache, then yeah I’m not surprised. The SQLite cache version is honestly much better 🤣

Intel ANV Vulkan Driver Finally Exposes Pipeline Binary “VK_KHR_pipeline_binary”
Introduced back in August of 2024 with Vulkan 1.3.294 was VK_KHR_pipeline_binary as a pipeline binary extension to retrieve binary data associated with individual pipelines. The focus of this is to bypass the Vulkan pipeline caching mechanism and so applications can manage caches themselves. Finally today for Mesa 26.0-devel the Intel “ANV” open-source Vulkan driver has enabled this extension… ⌘ Read more

↳ In-reply-to » This was a bit of a challenge. Wanted to see if I can make a small version, combining the best/most interesting parts, of the previous ones. Like the black lines separating each colour, an interesting pose, more anatomically correct legs... something of a best of the 2025, profile picture. Media

@thecanine@twtxt.net Woof woof! That’s a nice one. For a split second, the posture and the back legs reminded me of

that I never had, but always wanted as a child.

↳ In-reply-to » The most infuriating 3 seconds of using this Mac every day are the first time I run man and it calls home to see if I'm allowed to do that.

Because OP twtxt seems to be a cross-post from the Fediverse, I am bringing some context here. It refers to this GitHub issue. This comment explains why the issue described is happening:

This is usually due to notarization checks. E.g. the binaries are checked by the notarization service (‘XProtect’) which phones home to Apple. Depending on your network environment, this can take a long time. Once the executable has been run the results are usually cached, so any subsequent startup should be fast.

OP network must be running on 1,200 Baud modem, or less. 🤭 I have never, ever, experienced any distinguishable delays.

Streaming live video as a macOS screensaver using AVFoundation and yt-dlp
I built this to play live HLS streams as a screensaver on macOS. It supports both direct .m3u8 URLs and YouTube
links (via yt-dlp extraction with caching).

The interesting bits:

  • Cross-screen synchronization: All displays show the same frame of the video by syncing to a shared timestamp,
    making it feel like one continuous stream across monitors
  • Handles the unreliable macOS screensaver lifecycle (stopAnimation doesn’t always get called when … ⌘ Read more
