I've been using WezTerm for a while for the lack of a better alternative, but the current state of Wayland support in it is absolutely terrible. For example, I just changed my terminal font and I wasn't able to start WezTerm until I changed back to the previous font.

Fonts can still have source code. See this, for example:

> Still less confusing than "mph" (I always read it as "meters per hour" and have to go back to correct myself).

I always read "mph" as miles/hour and "m/h" as "meters/hour"


> Sure I can get similar things for free, but sometimes I want content from that person and I see no issue giving them a couple bucks for it. I can afford it, so why not? Why do they not deserve it when I’m willing to also sub to a Patreon for someone who makes cool digital art on Instagram?

I don't really understand this. Digital art on Instagram is generally unique, but porn is not. Sure, there are some onlyfans models that cater to a very niche kink - I get why people would pay for that. But most of them just post regular naked photos/videos of themselves.

What is the value proposition here? You probably wouldn't pay for a Patreon of an artist that draws those generic boring corporate illustrations that every company uses, even though they have a use and still take effort to create. So why would you support a specific person that makes content which is not in any way different from any other person like that?


> content which is not in any way different from any other person like that?

Because their content is different enough. Getting back to the art example: everyone’s art is unique BUT you can still find other artists that are similar. Sure there will exist other models who look very nearly the same at first glance, but everybody is, in fact, unique! And even two people with nearly identical physiques may create different material. The differences may be subtle to some but very distinguishable to others.

I might just have an eye for the small differences too. I am friends with several people who take lascivious photos of themselves for fun and/or profit. I get to talk with them about it - context, lighting, angles, etc. I just dang ol’ appreciate the craft! It’s not always an attraction thing or arousal thing: the human form is gorgeous and beautiful and utterly divine and manifests in so many different shapes and sizes! And taking well-crafted photographs of any subject is an art!

And maybe that’s why I gravitate towards it - so much pornography is like junk food, but not all adult content has to be! Some of it is like a well crafted meal, featuring quality ingredients prepared well by a skilled cook :)


> I wonder if I can restrict search results to a particular domain so it only pulls from microsoft docs

Yeah, you can set up an allowlist of domains in the lens configuration. I have a "Reddit" lens that essentially just adds "site:reddit.com" to the searches


Mhm, that's called "entertainment". If you don't have 40 minutes (or 20 on 2x) to spend on something that isn't work, that's pretty sad.


> maybe it differs per repo

Then you'll already have a formatter config file in the root of your repo, and the formatter that Zed runs will use those settings.


> Releasing and maintaining packages across a range of distros is extremely hard and time consuming

That's why Flatpak exists


Are you talking about this GitHub script or the Scarecrow app?


The closed source one that asks for your email and has very little information about its developers.


Yeah, it seems like MathJax just puts whatever is in the square brackets of the Unicode tag into css font-family without escaping it beforehand
