Can we get a better file transfer in KDE connect? It's 2025 yet this feature is so minimalistically user-hostile. Only single file at a time, no resume, no retries, no remembering last folder, sometimes even no notification. #kde #kdeconnect

To see monthly new CPAN distributions and seeing how many distributions each author releases: % list-new-cpan-dists --this-month --format csv | csv-freqtable -f author --with-data-rows | csv2texttable All CLIs available for free on CPAN. #tip #perl #cpan #cli

If you send/receive/deal with files a lot (who doesn't) then you'll want to set a keyboard shortcut to sort by Name (e.g. Ctrl-4) and by Modified (e.g. Ctrl-5) because you'll alternate so often between those two. #unix #linux #kde #dolphin #tip

Didn't realize I have so many modules that use smartmatch that I now have to update because the deprecation warning can no longer be silenced with "use experimental 'smartmatch'". #perl

just how precious your content is to make a miserable user experience like this? i can't even scroll the page with spacebar or press Alt-F to open the menu... might as well make all your page a big giant JPG or whatever.

Why didn't I use KDE Connect sooner? To copy paste between phone and laptop, I used to use Google Docs in-between and I thought it was simple enough.

mc (or i believe nc) made the right decision when it put Delete (F8) apart from the other commands. but i think Copy (F5) and Move (F6) needs to be separated too because i've been bitten a couple of times by pressing the wrong key. #midnightcommander #mc

After over a decade of use, it's only yesterday that I found out by accident #midnightcommander can be switched from dual vertical pane to dual horizontal lane. Very nifty for long file names. Alt-[,]. It's like suddenly finding out your partner can... okay won't go there.
