I do have a quick question to the nerd fonts https://www.nerdfonts.com/. Is there any source to get all the icon included?

Seems like my waybar and eww bar is missing some icons working previously as I changed the font for those.

For example there should be a microphone icon here but seems like the icon was not found. My guess is that they do use another representation for those icons, but I'm not sure how to get the correct ones.

If you own a computing device outright, you should be able to make any level of software modification you desire. hardware manufacturers should not be allowed to absolutely restrict distribution of software to their own channels under the guise of safety.

Dear R package developers: question on how to ignore directories when building a package.

Suppose I have a directory 'package/' containing typical R-package directories like 'R', 'man', etc. Let's say that in 'package/' I also have a directory X that I'd like to be *completely* ignored by R's package builder as well as by `devtools::install()`. How do I achieve this? – I can call X whatever you like.

Despite having put all possible kinds of pattern in '.Rbuildignore' in order to exclude X, and also having tried to name "X" according to patterns or names listed in `tools:::get_exclude_patterns()` and in `tools:::.hidden_file_exclusions()`, I see that `R CMD build` still goes into X and complains about files there ("cp: cannot stat...").

A web search has not led to solutions: most of them mention '.Rbuildignore', but clearly there's more going on here...

Cheers!

My fellow CachyOS users...are you having issues with external drives not automounting? I'm having to manually add them to fstab; is there some fix to make it mount at plugin?  

Edit: nvm, I got it. :)
