  • but setting up without it should be more straightforward.

    I tried with Lua. I installed the language server and followed the instructions and fiddled with it until it worked, doing multiple web researches over a time of 40-60 Minutes.

    All I got was a bunch of W for lines where I used global variables, and some underlined text with “no information available” and a table variable showing what keys the table has.

    No autocomplete, no information on parameters, no nothing.

    This is not good or convenient at all and we should stop lying to ourselves. LSP in Neovim is utterly annoying and complicated to set up properly.



  • Why do you consider AppImages as last resort?

    Mainly because you cannot manage them properly.

    Installing from the repos I have pacman, from the AUR I can use one of the various AUR helpers (most of them can forward repo package updates to pacman, so I really have just one command to update the system and all AUR packages).

    When making my own packages I usually also put them in the AUR (plus, it is super easy to do make an own package and put in in the AUR) – and from there an aUR helper takes care about updates. Flatpaks can also be updated very easy by just running one command.

    So: All of those have a specific location where they install and allow me to start them easily because they put a script/link somewhere in $PATH. All of those can be easily maintained and updated.

    Last time I checked, AppImages had none of those. Neither could I easily update all of them on my system, nor is there a dedicated location to place them, nor is there an “unified” (i.e. something in $PATH) way of starting them. I have to manually check for updates, re-download the whole thing, replace the current AppImage file in an arbitrary location.

    This is just how I do not want to maintain my programs.










  • Klarna waren doch die, die illegaler weise Vollzugriff aufs Bankkonto wollen, oder? Wo man sogar eine Anleitung bekommt, wie man denen die One-Time-PIN, Chip-TAN-Daten, etc. übermitteln kann, und damit aktiv gegen die Nutzungsbedingungen praktisch aller Banken verstößt, was eine Kontokündigung zur Folge haben kann.





  • Hier haben sie ’nen schicken Kreisverkehr gebaut, mit Zu- und Ableitung für den Radverkehr. Soweit erst mal gut.

    Aber über die etwa insgesamt 2,5 Meter schmale Zwei-Richtungs-Führung laufen insgesamt 5 oder 6 verschiedene, teils internationale Radwege, sowie lokale Velorouten, und nach kurzer Strecke geht der Radweg auf Kopfsteinpflaster über, das aktuell neu gebaut wird und das vorherige Kopfsteinpflaster ersetzt.

    Nicht nur Lübeck denkt Planungen nicht zu Ende.

    Ich frage mich ja, wie viel besser solche Projekte laufen würden, wenn tatsächlich auch Alltagsradfahrer an der Planung beteiligt wären.
