@movq I fully agree with you on https://www.uninformativ.de/blog/postings/2025-07-22/0/POSTING-en.html!

Although, in the first screenshot, the window title background is much darker in the new version than the old one@1@1 :-P Kidding aside, the contrast in the old one is still better.

Also, note the missing underlines for the Alt hotkeys now. I just think that the underline in the old one is too thick.

Of course, @kat! But I'll first write some instructions (hopefully this week) and then let you know. :-) Should be much easier then.

Hello from Romania as well
I have a Python script that transforms the original YouTube channel Atom feed into a more useful Atom feed by removing the spam description and replacing it with the video duration, filtering out videos by title, duration, etc. I just updated it to exclude the damn Shorts garbage more efficiently. Finally, YouTube updated their Atom feed generation, so that the video URL contains /short/ if it's of this useless kind. Never thought that they ever actually will improve their Atom feeds. Thank you, much appreciated!
@javivf Perfect, it's fixed! :-)
Hey @lyse thanks for noticing. I think I had a DNS record pointing to the old IPv6 host. Is the issue gone now?
The command line version is here:

I should add a "public domain dedication" to both scripts...

@movq Oh boy! Fingers crossed.

That's what you get when playing with bleeding edges. :-D
@kat I have absolutely no idea, but I wouldn't be surprised if it uses the closest full image after your cut point and not the one before. Hence, the deltas between the two full images have nothing to really refer to. So, the video player just shows the first full image it finds and "freezes" the image until the video stream actually hits it.

Let me try to visualize it, | represent full images, . just subsequent deltas:


Original start of video
↓
|......|.....|........|......|..
   ↑                      ↑
   Cut point      Cut point

Resulting video:

   ....|.....|........|....
   ↑↑↑↑
   This is where it freezes         


Could be complete bullshit, though. Wouldn't be the first time that I'm wrong. :-)

I'm just curious, what exact command line do you use to cut the video?
Since Wayland compositors handle input devices on a lower level than X11 window managers, every compositor has to figure out on their own what a “mouse wheel click” is:

- https://github.com/labwc/labwc/issues/1068
- https://github.com/labwc/labwc/pull/2933

(I think “Wayland compositor” is a misnomer. They are full-blown display servers that also do compositing, plus Wayland window management, plus X11 window management.)

One can only hope that all this eventually gets moved into the wlroots library. (I’m not sure if that’s possible, nor if people would want that.)

I have this very simple #Python script that uses #imageio to convert all PNG files on a folder into a #GIFAnimation, and this is a #FreeSimpleGUI version of it (I usually run a command line version).

As I usually run #gifsicle on the command line after creating a GIF, I decided to update it to add #pygifsicle to do it for me and save a step.

@movq @kat Any text format beats a binary configuration format. However, YAML and XML are both terrible choices in my opinion. I'd prefer YAML over XML if I had to.

Maybe someone can explain this to me.

An #EU citizen trying to access Facebook today faces the following choices (see screenshots).

In there, they say that they are asking this again to comply with #EU rules, and yet the question - and the options to choose from - are the same they had in the past.

So, hm, how does this make them comply with something they weren't complying before? What's the detail I'm missing?

To be honest though, for a mid-range and moderately priced truck, even though it's made in China (_what isn't?!_), it's _actually_ a very nice truck.
@bender I plan to trade it in within it's warranty period 🤣 It has 7yr warrants on everything, I said to the dealer, I'll see you in 5 🤣
Our truck can comfortably tow 3T (its rated for 3.5T but I'm trying to keep a fair bit of buffer and headroom all-round).
@bender That was one of the inputs into my research 🧐 So that's already factored in. We bought our new truck (2025 GWM Canon) recently to replace the 'ol 2nd hand Nissan Navara we bought that just had _too many_ things go wrong with it, and I don't have time or energy to learn to be a diesel mechanic haha 🤣 -- So yes, the SCT-16 has a Tare (unladen weight) of 2150Kg and a maximum legal (ATM) weight of 2,800Kg.

@kat I kind of like XML because it’s mostly well-defined and easy for humans to read (unlike YAML, which is a complete mess, imho) … and at the same time, it can get complicated really fast. 🫤 But at least it’s plain-text – that’s the important part in this case. 😅
