Yeah, I knew it wasn’t a bot reply, but since I thought you marked it as such it was a fun comment.

So the AI boom has made the bots depressed too huh …

I know, and no one will believe me

He did not have to provide lifelong project and work on it. He just needed to donate his money and people in UN would have worked with that money. Even if it didn’t work, he’d still have done a real great job by donating that much. And maybe we could have learn money is not the solution and we need to change approach.

We’re not saying pay the authors a bunch, we’re saying make the papers free to read. Or at least don’t charge authors and readers both, while keeping all the money for yourself.

Yeah, but my program does not have such things in the code. And if you add it, GPL will make it so that they have to share to code, so people will be able to tell if they try it, right?

I’m fine as long as it is used in other GPL projects. I just don’t want them to take this, use it on some proprietary code and make money/mine data and other things and not contribute to upstream or open source in general.

I hadn’t thought about the network usages, I though GPL covered it. So, is AGPL everything GPL has plus software service from network? If yes, then I will use that license. EDIT: Saw that AGPLv3 is indeed GPLv3 + the network thing.

Further points:

I also have a lot of other libraries and programs that I have developed and published with GPLv3 license, so I also want to integrate them with the new program. Since I don’t want to reinvent the wheel for things I have already done. And I’ll probably want to integrate this software on things I might make in the future.

Considering they made it so that you need apple issued usb-c, and have problems with normal one (probably fixed now because people obviously complained). I’d say avoiding it is a good choice.

Losing access to a work I put hours and days, sometimes months of my life was the main reason I now absolutely refuse any non-open source products. My advisor/colleagues sometimes say “university gives it for free”, or “we pay all that money for this softwares”, but I am not going to use them even if they are slightly better than open source.

Do I know something to play it. When I tried, it was way complex or something. Couldn’t understand what’s going on or what I’m supposed to do.

Can you do makepkg in the clone of yay PKGBUILD from aur? That seems like a better solution than symlinking…

Not much documentation. I tried to use it, but it was really hard to figure out anything.

Someone already talked about the XY problem, so I’ll say this.

Why sound notification instead of notification content? If your notification program (dunst in my case) have pattern matching or calling scripts based on patterns and the script has access to which app, notification title, contents etc. then it’s just about calling something in your bash script.

And any time you wanna add that functionality to something else, add one more line with a different pattern or add a condition in your script. Comparing text is lot more reliable than audio.

Of course your use case could be completely different, so maybe give some examples of use case so people can give you different ways to solve that instead of just the one you’re thinking of.

Not for handwritten text, but for printed fonts, getting OCR is as easy as just making a box in screen with current technology. So I don’t think we need AI things for that.

Personally I use tesseract. I have a simple bash script that when run let’s me select a rectangle in screen, save that image and run OCR in a temp folder and copy that text to clipboard. Done.

Edit: for extra flavor you can also use notify-send to send that text over a notification so you know what the OCR produced without having to paste it.

Thank you. I’ve been using grk4-rs so I went over their examples and the book. Looking at the c examples might be good as well. And I’ll learn about the GObjects. So far I’ve been winging it based on examples I see and the properties of different classes.

Thank you, I’ll go over them. I think I got a little bit of the basics now. But I need a little advanced knowledge. And most tutorials seems to be for gtk3 and many widgets are now deprecated.

Originally my plan was to make each slide edited separately when you right click and do edit. And be able to drag them up and down and everything, but my skills were not enough. After trying to make that for a week I gave up and made this simpler version. So listview and treeview models from that tutorial could give me more info.

Yeah, the bindings were a great help. I also tried tauri, iced, beavy, and a lot of libraries. At the end just using gtk4 seemed to be the best for my use case. I went through the grk4-rs book, and then started experimenting. I don’t like GUI at all, but for simple cases it works well

Glade doesn’t work for gtk4. There’s cambanche, but it didn’t work as smoothly as glade. Originally I tried just using glade and converting to gtk4 for a bit, didn’t work great as some classes were different.

So at the end I went with just looking at gtk4 docs and writing xml on the editor. It’d be problematic once in a while if I miss closing some tags, other than that it went well.

If anyone here is familiar with making GUIs with rust using gtk4-rs, I’d appreciate some guidance. It’s been a challenging road as I’m trying to learn GUI developement.
