I'm intermediate in multiple languages, but I have no advanced experience, as I'm learning everything in my free time.

My GitHub is here, if you want to take a look.
I recommend taking a look at my ZSH config and Reddit wallpapers

@DaCool @BrodieOnLinux I wouldn't had how convenient it is. I would hate that FOSS/privacy preservin options haven't Bern able to match it.

Matrix is the closest but I find it a mess to navigate in comparison I Discord. And voice calls are still not done properly. Also since even Discord is often confusing to newcomers Matrix is even more.

Don't get me wrong, it's awesome and I use it often, but it has some thing that need to be fixed for it to be more popular.

Help wanted! 🛟

#Inkscape community member @dopelover recently contributed a set of shortcuts that mimics that of #Illustrator CC 2024, but it needs a larger userbase to test it before merging.

If you're (or you know someone) familiar with Illustrator, please go to the forum page and follow the instructions to get the new keyboard shortcuts file for testing there:

Thanks for your testing!

@itsfoss Just use NixOS. Since nothing runs, malware is just as likely to fail execution as 90% of normal software.

@linuxiac It would be cool if the better integration meant better fingerprint login (you either have to wait when logging in using the password or press enter on an empty password to use the fingerprint reader) and Kwallet being able to unlock when logged in using a fingerprint.

We got another "critical vulnerability" on #curl reported. I figured you might enjoy it.

"The authentication mechanism in cURL does not properly restrict the number of failed authentication attempts, allowing an attacker to brute-force credentials"

Yawn. Away, away you go.

@rantanlan I'm not sure. I'd like to keep it simple but feel free to open an issue on GitHub.
