Okay, I found out that MellowPlayer is not maintained anymore, and Nuvola dies at the end of the year… This is not a nice day :(

Happy new year everyone!!! 🥂

Merry Christmas everyone !!! 🎄🥂

Ok, I can't. While I like C and don't have too much trouble understanding it and such, programming a complete application in C feels WAY too tedious to do as a hobby. Really, the way I design my software tends to be based on multiple objects that interrelate and communicate with each other via signals, properties, and methods, and even writing a single property in C involves too much code.

I need motivation to get back to writing JavaScript code. I need to finish that website for #Vala

I just completed "Binary Diagnostic" - Day 3 - Advent of Code 2021 #AdventOfCode https://adventofcode.com/2021/day/3

I just completed "Dive!" - Day 2 - Advent of Code 2021 #AdventOfCode https://adventofcode.com/2021/day/2

I just completed "Sonar Sweep" - Day 1 - Advent of Code 2021 #AdventOfCode https://adventofcode.com/2021/day/1

Folks, please. Stop assuming that it's okay to introduce advanced features to Linux desktops that a normal user won't understand because "only geeks use Linux anyway".

I found Vorta which seems to work fine, but not as intuitive as Pika

Ok this player looks pretty good

By the way, it is interesting that the Pika logo appears in the header bar, I thought that Plasma did not have as much power over those aspects in the CSD 🤔

Hmmm I think it does not
