How to Create a Global Color Picker Hotkey in KDE Plasma (Without Widgets) If you need a color picker regularly enough but not every five minutes, keeping a widget on your panel 24/7 may be overkill. I prefer a global hotkey that triggers...

Neat little one-liner to get global color picker hotkey on KDE plasma without widgets or additional packages: andreklein.net/how-to-create-a-global-c... #kde #plasma #linux

The End-Boss of Linux Formatting: RTL Annotations in PDF Getting RTL (right-to-left) language annotations to render correctly in Linux PDF apps is the absolute end-boss of formatting. It doesn't matter which app you use—Okular, Master PDF Editor, or whatever...

New blog post about the perils of using Arabic and Hebrew in Linux PDF annotations and a gloriously dirty fix: andreklein.net/the-end-boss-of-linux-fo... #rtl #linux #pdf #hebrew #arabic

Getting RTL (Hebrew, Arabic) annotations in PDF to render correctly on Linux is the end-boss of formatting. All PDF apps reverse the letters. My solution: a simple shell script (via hotkey) to reverse and replace clip-board contents. Such a dirty fix, yet so clean. #pdf #hebrew

Spent the day mucking about with the blazingly fast #nushell which (once you get accustomed to the syntax) makes for a suprisingly suckless terminal workflow on Windows, especially when combined with #starship and #zoxide.

Was pleasantly surprised to see today that BookFusion supports #epub media overlays (the account requirement on Android is a bit meh, but hey, in a world where support is still rare and few, I'll allow it.) Added to the list: https://smplu.link/2bcuS

No, #KDE 6.6, you will not break my filtered taskbar. You'll have to pry it from my cold dead hands. Shim issued: https://github.com/burninc0de/kde-filtered-taskbar/ #plasma

As an indie-publisher of language learning materials, creating bullet-proof glossaries involves a lot of manual labor and tedious cross-refs. Just built a vocab "linter" or "pre-compiler" so I can get early hints about duplicates, lapsed entries, etc. Real game-changer. #indiepub

Too many brave agents ventured into my TUI and got trapped; forever lost to the void. So I wrote them a warning: github.com/burninc0de/helowrite/com... #hicsuntdracones #llm (let's hope they will listen)

Took an old laptop yesterday, set up clean arch install, onboarded #OpenClaw, gave it the keys to the kingdom (passwordless sudo) and told it to go nuts. The result: it hallucinated creating files, downloading pacman packages while disk stayed untouched. "it's so over", lmao

fun little tray app that lets me see at a glance exactly how fast Github Copilot is burning through premium requests: #copilot #llm #kde

"Windows Web Experience Pack" is peak corporate gaslighting. It’s like calling a tapeworm an "Internal Nutritional Management Consultant." Keep B-list celebs and "breaking news" off your system! The solution: powershell(admin) -> winget uninstall "Windows Web Experience Pack"

Compiling vocabulary glossaries for my language books and manually checking them for continuity is always a huge PITA. Currently working on an automated Vocabulary Analyzer that can spot these issues for me (regex for the win). #indiepub #languagelearning

I Built My Own Damn Crossposter Because Social Media Is a Fragmented Hellscape Social media is so insanely fragmented right now it's honestly comical. Remember 2009? (15 years ago ... how?) I joined Twitter and it felt like the future. Even Facebook—yes, Facebook—was...

Update: My side-project for shouting into the fragmented hellscape is now my daily driver.

Features a mixed feed for Bsky/Mastodon and a noise filter for Masto. X is still there too, though their API treats requests like Leprechaun gold.

Running a fully riced, headless Arch on WSL feels like an OS organ transplant Microsoft didn’t authorize. 30ms cold starts and 0% bloat. It’s pure blasphemy, and I’m never going back. 💀🔥 #archlinux #wsl2 #riced

In today's episode of making WSL suck less: stealing the excellent CachyOS fish config, specifically alias ls -> eza to get a bit of color into file listings. Notes here: andreklein.net/taming-wsl-into-a-tactic... #wsl #cachyos

When did it become normalized for people to post tutorials on Medium that hits you with a paywall as soon as you look at it twice? What's so bad about posting on your own blog? #medium #tutorials

Setting "appendWindowsPath = false" and then only explicitly adding stuff I actually was a huge performance boost. GPU-accel in Alacritty for fast rendering. Fish for some QoL and it's surprisingly snappy.

Trying to open source a Copilot usage tracker just as Copilot goes down. Guess the AI realized I was tracking its ROI and decided to quit before I could call BS. #copilot #github

After I spent the day yesterday ricing my WSL-workflow (check blog for notes) developing native TUIs on Windows is beginning to feel a LOT more palatable. #wsl

Taming WSL into a Tactical Workbench For A Terminal-First Workflow Last year, I moved to CachyOS on my laptop. I expected a different Kernel. I was ready to do some things differently. What I didn't expect was a total disruption...

CachyOS taught me to embrace the terminal. I tried to reverse-engineer that workflow on Windows and failed. Until I rediscovered WSL, but optimized for raw speed: andreklein.net/taming-wsl-into-a-tactic... #windows #wsl #terminal

Another little TUI for my CLI-zoo: Github Copilot PRU usage tracker / and a little tray app for handy reference #devtools #copilot

How to get VS Code "Native Tabs" on KDE Plasma (Linux) When you're juggling three repos in VS Code and a dozen browser tabs, Alt+Tab becomes a game of Russian Roulette. You’re looking for your frontend, but you end up staring...

Some more context about how I hacked together my own "native tabs"-like VS Code functionality for KDE: https://andreklein.net/vs-code-native-tabs-linux-kde/ #linux #development #kde #plasmoid

Some different uses cases for KDE Filtered Taskbar https://github.com/burninc0de/kde-filtered-taskbar
- fast switching between VSCODE projects
- "pin" terminal and browser for faster access
Alt+TAB? Sure, but this can get messy if you have twenty apps running. #KDE #productivity
