i can look at lxqt for long periods of time now.

tbf Qt5 + Wayland + lxqt are pretty serviceable, even if the fonts will always remain completely broken they will never approach Microsoft or Warcraft levels of rendering.

carry on then

lol at that amarok screenshot. I see they've decided that the only button you need is pause. i guess technically that's true.

i still think 1.4 was the bomb but maybe some of that is nostalgia.

you're gonna run head-first into the "yelp problem"

lots of restaurants on yelp have 5 star reviews, yet are completely loving terrible. this is because any user who was stupid enough not to be deterred by the externa/internal appearance or menu is gonna fuckin love what's inside

any one stupid enough to use a ubuntu app store is not someone whose opinion i need

I think it's a good idea for "when was this released", "what movie was it in again", "what's the lead singer's name" sorts of stuff. kindle fire has that sort of thing for movies, contextual to who's on the screen, it's pretty neat.

anybody got any experience making web scrapers in linux?
i got a scraper made with c#+awesomium (ugh at the name) and i want to make port it to headless, gui-less linux. i want a browser engine but i don't want to install xserver, wayland, qt, or gtk. i just want dynamic html+js and they don't even need to render. the site i am scraping is doing some crazy ajax gymnastics with obfuscated js so doing the requests by hand is way too much effort.

any ideas?

thanks. but isn't that a one-time parser?

the pages i am scraping have tickers, marquees, things that pop up and hide, etc. web 2.0 as gently caress. the way i am currently scraping is by injecting some js on the site that calls a callback in my code when things change. that's why i am currently using a chromium shell (awesomium).
