I’m one of the unicorns. I’m a millennial, and they are (were) my favourite confectionary chocolate. I think my sister may like them as well, but everyone else I know detests them. I’m sad to see them go, but I know that I’m not buying enough to keep them in business by myself.
A link to the project would have been helpful: https://github.com/edubart/nelua-lang
Initially I was going to dismiss it as a cool pet project for someone but not really likely to get any traction given the competition in the space–but there are a lot of people who are going to learn Lua as their first language through things like Roblox and other games, so I could actually see it grow as people who already know Lua move out of games and are looking for speed with familiar syntax.
That said, not for me. There are plenty of other languages out there I’m more likely to reach for.
This is such a municipal issue it’s annoying to see the Province wanting to butt in in the first place.
I hear you. My last phone was an ancient Xperia from about eight years ago–but I finally needed to get a new one. I love most everything Sony is doing with the Xperia series, and I would have gotten another. But the update guarantee was so abysmal I just couldn’t do it. So now I have a Pixel which I think is worst in design in a lot of ways. But at least it will be updated. (And can run GrapheneOS).
Seconding Sway. I will admit I prefer autotiling (switching the split for new windows between horizontal/vertical automatically, rather than choosing which split you want), but overall Sway is so good in configuration that I still use it in spite of being a manual. The configuration takes time, but that’s common to pretty much any tiler.
The first thing that came to mind when I saw the question is perhaps a bit of a weird answer–but I really want to learn SELinux. It’s completely overkill for my Linux desktop and the few services I run on my network. The same with OpenLDAP, I want to play around with it even though I have no real need for it with my setup, I just haven’t gotten around to it yet.
On that note, I also feel like I want to learn Ansible, or some other configuration management tool. The thing is, I haven’t even played around with it (or any others) enough to really even get what the intended use case is. I’m looking for ways to manage policies and configurations across multiple machines in a common way, but it feels like the more common use case is deploying webapps. So while it’s on my list of things I want to learn I don’t even have sufficient background at the moment.
Then, finally, the other thing that came to mind was timeshift–or really BTRFS snapshots in general. It would be nice to have that additional feeling of safety while playing around with my systems.
Glad you got it resolved! (Especially as, while I noted in my earlier reply, I don’t use LaTeX currently, but I’m planning on switching over from asciidoc in the near future for reports and notes and occasionally I do need to write in French!)
On second thought, it looks like it probably isn’t even vimtex or LSP related–probably just your vim settings. Try :set spelllang+=fr
Do you have the language set within the .tex document itself?
/selectlanguage{French}
Or something like that. You may need to /usepackage{babel} as well or similar. I haven’t played around much with LaTeX, so not sure this will work or not–but everything I’ve seen indicates that the TeX document language setting is what will key the LSP language setting.
I have a Priority Apollo. The maintenance is way less than any of my chain-drive bikes, which I really appreciate. I tend to bike in the winter and in the rain (although not so much this last year), and it has been so much better for that (internal hub as well: no salt/sand in the gears, no risk of rust, etc). The internal hub on it is different shifting than a normal derailleur, but you get used to it. It’s definitely heavier than my roughly equivalent spec chain-drive bike, and it feels a lot slower. It is silent (like you don’t think of chains as loud, but by comparison you really notice the lack of sound). The major downside is it just doesn’t “feel” as responsive as a chain. I don’t quite know how to describe it, it’s not like there is a bunch of stretch in the belt or anything, but it just feels different in a way I don’t entirely love. That could partly be a factor of the internal hub though, and I’ll be honest, if I could do it again I would have gotten a belt single speed rather than internal hub, but I would get a belt again – even if only for avoiding the salt damage in the winter.

I appreciate the author took the time to do this, but I’m a little skeptical of their results. I pay for Kagi, so decided to directly paste their queries into it just to see – while none of the ‘bad’ results would have completely flipped based on the author’s ranking system, the “very bad” would have been just “bad” or possibly “ok”. Adblock showed my uBlock as result number 5; youtube-dl was result number 10, and so on. Mind you, I am running it with uBlock origin and although I haven’t done any custom rankings it is quite possible that some of the other settings (geographic point of origin, for example) would have affected the results. I’m curious to try it with some of the other engines now (as well as a completely blank slate for Kagi) and see – because at least in that instance, I’m not entirely sure these are replicatable results.
Also: a bone to pick with the tire query – the answers the author were scoring higher didn’t answer the question “why do wider tires have better grip” (which is what the author searched), but instead queries which answered “what are the advantages of wider tires”. Not sure it would actually change the proportionate results, but assuming their bullet list is all they were looking for in the answer, it’s hard to criticize any results for not answering the slightly different question than what they posed.

It takes, what, about five minutes to fuel up a gasoline powered vehicle. Optimistically, in ten years time on a fast charger, 20 minutes for an electric? So theoretically, to maintain the current flow rates on highly trafficked routes (like the 401 from Montreal to Toronto), during peak hours, vehicles need to be stopped at a service station for at least four times as long as they currently are now. It’s also slightly over a 500km long drive, so unless you’re really playing chicken with range you will need to stop at least once (I could be wrong, but I believe most gas powered vehicles can do around 600km range at 120km/h?). I wonder what the land-use requirements will be to charge those vehicles – Walmart parking lots beside the highway may begin to make a killing if they lean into it.
For me, unless my landlord suddenly decides to spend a tonne of money to furnish the first-come, first-serve outdoor parking lot at my building with electric chargers, it’ll be a hybrid after that date (unless I’m rennovicted before then). I wonder if someone is liable for the tripping hazard of extension cords running out the front door and across the sidewalk to street parking.
Obviously I’m being a bit silly and sarcastic here, but the wholly electric by 2035 scheme seems half-baked based on the assumption everyone lives in single family homes and that the amount of intercity travel will decrease in aggregate by then. Rather than say, increasing taxes year on year for gasoline powered ownership and then some heavy investment into things like high speed rail, cycling infrastructure, trams, etc. The solution to cars are too polluting doesn’t have to be the same number or more cars . . .
I’ve taken to using Kagi. It may not meet your privacy requirements (more below), but it does keep the web wonderfully shopping mall free. It’s a paid search engine, it sources results anonymously from other search engines as well as its having its own internal database. I generally find because the search results are weighted by its own criteria which in no way is influenced by ad revenue decisions they tend to be pretty good – plus you can customize them by assigning your own weightings to sources you like to use a lot (like, say, Wikipedia) or ones you never want to see (like AI-generated spam domains). Privacy may be where it breaks down for you, and will depend on your threat model. For the most part, my privacy concerns are more for private businesses and advertisers – which it excels at protecting me again. If I was concerned about law-enforcement it may be less desirable (it is run out of the USA and is presumably subject to subpoena), likewise for state-level espionage (and if that’s your concern, you wouldn’t be asking this question anyway).
All in all, hugely happy with it and totally think I’ve gotten my money’s worth from it – but I also totally get a lot of people aren’t interested or are unable to pay for a search engine. I figure I’m paying one way or another, and I’d far rather pay this way than with my time sorting through ad spam. If you are interested, they have a tonne of documentation explaining their philosophy, search results, privacy policy, and what all you get for your money.
I had the same problem yesterday, restarting Firefox helped for a bit, but then it recurred. I’m not entirely sure what’s happening–I’m assuming it’s not Firefox itself, as I hadn’t updated it (even if there was an update). I kind of assumed it was an extension proble as I noticed on YouTube first (so I assumed it was them changing something to block add blockers), but it was universal to other websites as well. No idea.
