I love sway, one very tiny annoyance I found was simply setting and managing default applications. I may randomly open things via yazi, or by using xdg-open via terminal - and then find whatever file i selected opens in some random application (or might not open at all if no association). So then I have to manually edit ~/.config/mimeapps.list or use the XFCE mime manager with its various XFCE deps I don't want.

So.. to tackle this super minor annoyance I made a TUI - imaginatively called mime-tui. And put it in arch AUR. It lets you easily manage all file associations, it flags broken associations, and it lets you do it fairly quickly and I hope easily from the terminal.

I hope this

Has anyone else had an issue with firefox of horrific font kerning in the address bar? On my (default gnome) desktop it looks like this:

See the "dwarf fortress" text in the address bar. it is so bad it looks like "dwar f for tress". Everything else mostly looks fine in firefox it seems to be the address bar particularly that has the issue. My searchign about for a solution on and off for the last year has never found a solution, but my searching for something related to dwarf fortress there was the last bloody straw.

Just got to the hall of jars in Mutagen, but I can’t work out how to clear mines? Blasting fire at them, batons, javelins - nowt works. Is there any trick for them or items that will do the trick?

Do I just make cheap throwaway creations and sacrifice them?

So a few weeks ago I placed an order for fantasy flight purple sleeves from Element games here in the UK. Heard nothing and then when following up with them today, they tell me "Unfortunately Fantasy Flight Games are no longer producing Standard European Board Game Sleeves (Purple), as such we are unable to fulfill your order".

This is quite poor as I have about 2000 sleeves in FF purple, so if and when I expand my dominion collection further it may be future sleeves are slightly different in feeling?

Has anybody heard of this? Is it true? If it is true, what brand of sleeves is of reasonable quality without being horrifically expensive or with the consistency problems I keep hearing about

Due to my toddler’s escalator obsession, I was wondering if anywhere in town has an escalator?

It seems to me that Kilmarnock - in another talismanic sign of crippling decline - has no escalators anywhere within it.

Ayr has escalators. Irvine has escalators. Even bloody Galston has an escalator in their tesco! Kilmarnock has nothing.

According to this “escalator index” then kilmarnock is at the bottom of the retail chain. None of the shops on the high st have one nor do any supermarkets.

I can only conclude that Kilmarnock is very sick and its long term survival prospects are very dim.
