Yup, I'm not sure what happened with the Glib rewrite for 1.5.

I moved from Ubuntu Server LTS to CentOS 7 and from Lighty to Nginx and actually found the Nginx configuration less unpleasant than Lighty.

looks like Haiku is redoing its equivalent of pid 1:

Axel Dörfler posted:

The beginnings of a launch_daemon for Haiku.

* This will be heavily inspired by Apple's launchd, as well as
systemd -- for now it really doesn't do a whole lot, though.
* What works so far: the configuration files are read, parsed, and
the jobs created.
* The jobs are even initialized, and their message ports created.
* BApplication now retrieves a previously created port from the
launch_daemon for use with BServer.
* Only the registrar actually uses this for now.

strangely this did not appear to result in a systemd-style meltdown on the part of anyone in the community

I wonder what FreeBSD is doing in this space

OSX is a lovely user experience, i'm sure, but the actual architecture of the thing seems pretty gross. Apple succeeds very much despite their software stack, not because of it.

Its because they figured out that it doesn't matter how great your software stack is, if it's propping up unusable garbage.

yeah but i haven't found one that 'just works'

the other option is to go cli everything and use tmux.

I'm really happy with xmonad. It took a tiny bit of one-time fuckery to figure out but I get by with basically a stock config plus xmobar+trayer+dmenu.

My buddy switched to i3 and swears by it, but I haven't tried it with much sincerity.

i tried using tmux for a bit

then i realized that docking two gnome-terminals side-by side using the gnome 3 equivalent of Aero Snap was far more productive and less spergy

i've finally had to use windows 8 (well, technically 2012) and the experience has convinced me that neither gnome3 nor unity is the worst possible desktop user interface

looking forward to my workplace introducing windows 10 in five years or so, till then it's back to the linux vms and trying to pretend windows isn't there

yes, and often I want to move them between two things that I am comparing, or to scroll to and fro through the output of one command while composing another, or any number of other use cases where tabs are unhelpful compared to having an easy way to place two windows neatly side by side
