Window transparency is available on all major platforms, and there are cross platform libs which support it, such as SDL3: https://wiki.libsdl.org/SDL3/SDL_WINDOW_TRANSPARENT (for …

Strange that article does not mention that Euro-Office fork has been created because OnlyOffice has Russian origins. I feel bad for Russian devs who tried to build great free softw…

Does this mean Google just forked it to develop proprietary XR runtime and doesn't contribute back?

https://github.com/shatsky/lightning-image-viewer Tiny desktop (pre)viewer which displays image in transparent overlay without any UI, allowing to look into specific image detail w…

Vibes of sunset of beautiful architecture. "It shouldn't be beautiful it's just a tool it should be practical, if it steals your attention [from some tiktok brainrot] to admire it …

I don't know much about node but cargo has lock file with hashes which prevents dep substitution unless dev decide to update lock file. Updating lock file has same risks as initial…

I believe NixOS-like "build time binding" is the answer. Especially with Rust "if it compiles, it works". Software shares code in form of libraries, but any set of installed softwa…

It does support dynamic libs, but virtually all important Rust software seems to be written without any consideration for it.

And yet Rust ecosystem practically killed runtime library sharing, didn't it? With this mentality that every program is not a building block of larger system to be used by maintain…

Hi HN! I'd like to share my app for viewing images the way I find comfortable on a desktop computer. No window frame, no menus, no toolbars, just the image itself in transparent fu…

Fun fact: EXIF is simultaneously JPEG format (EXIF spec describes compressed image file format which is based on JIF, the base JPEG file format described in JPEG spec, also EXIF is…

Yoshkar-Ola itself is a forgery, just google for its photos and name of that embankment street (no offence, just kidding, I even kinda like it, hope they didn't destroy some valuab…

Repairing it is as easy as rebooting and selecting last generation which worked.

>make drift from the original config impossible NixOS makes that too, its whole "system output path closure" is as immutable as every single store unit within it. But NixOS "reuses…

Another opinion: immutability is required to guarantee software integrity, but there is no need to make whole system or "apps" immutable units. NixOS also consists of "immutable un…

Maybe it was just a poorly prepared humorous performance referencing Monty Hall problem?

Cardboard is still here, YouTube app can play VR videos via it, Chrome for Android provides WebXR support via it, it's 3DoF only, but main usecase for phone VR is VR stereoscopic v…

Looks like a chance to finally have modern standalone HMD with unlocked bootloader. Meta and ByteDance ones are locked down and full of spyware
