• Autodafe: "freeing your freeing your project from the clammy grip of autotools."

  > you need to "edit your makefile". That isn't going to work for distributions Is it not? [st] requires exactly that. And distros seem to have no issues shipping it. [st] https://st.suckless.org/. - Source: Hacker News / 22 days ago

• Warp? A terminal behind login popup

  My journey of using terminal emulators began together with my introduction to Linux about 7 years ago. GNOME terminal was my first as it came pre-installed on Ubuntu, my first Linux distribution. Since then, I've had the opportunity to explore and utilize a range of terminal emulators, including Alacritty, Kitty, st, Konsole, xterm, and most recently iTerm2.
