  1. The classic window manager and desktop site xwinman.org came up in an unrelated issue on . I had used that site to create the original list of window managers inxi supported, but then I didn't think about it.

    One thing led to another and I found most of the site, except the /archive/ section, which is at archive.org.

    Since this is roughly my skill, I grabbed the site, upgraded it to modern responsive html/css standards: smxi.org/wm/

    Try it on your phone!

  2. New 3.3.37 goes out the door. Includes last minute workaround for 32 bit intel gen2 gpu eglinfo hang found. Probably a regression in i915 driver. And the big monitor scaling feature.
    Full changelog here:
    codeberg.org/smxi/inxi/src/bra

    This is the longest between releases in quite a while so nice to get some nifty enhancements and fixes in.

    This also introduces the improved option syntax for -b -e, which gets rid of a peeve of -F being impossible to explain.

  3. Zen master on his new mossy rock ledges in the woods. The first photo is after a light snow covered the ground the day after the other photo, where he seems to have a new student, a sweet little calico who followed him and sat on an adjacent moss covered rock. Roy in snow is on the same rock the calico was on the day before. Roy left soon after the other cat sat on her rock. I assume like all true masters he is skeptical of students. Roy is the best cat ever.

  4. chilling in the sun on . While snow was exciting he's really a temperate climate kind of guy. Earlier he was studying the woods intently from his wood pile ledge.

    Roy is a true Zen master, and I am but his humble student.

  5. lying between my arms early morning. I don't know which of us finds this most relaxing, it's a tossup. You can always tell when Roy gets relaxed because his very long legs start to pop out. For my part, I often just fall asleep. I'm sure this is some energy and pheramone type exchange which is part of our bond.

  6. exploring the woods on in the snow. Due to recent thaws then freezes the snow is pretty firm, otherwise Roy has trouble in softer snow because he's a large 6kg/13.2 lb cat, who has fairly small paws. So he usually sinks in unless there's a packed trail.

    His clowder buddy here has much larger paws and thicker fur so he can handle colder conditions, and soft snow.

  7. sitting in his absurdly undersized box on

    I don't know why he likes this box so much, but wherever I put it, there he'll be, sitting in it.

    As you know, there's something about cardboard boxes cats find deeply satisfying.

  8. . stretching out and being very long between my legs morning. He's had a lot to deal with over the past weeks so it was great to see him get so relaxed in bed.

    He's been getting along with his 3 new clowder buddies, they go out on crepuscular expeditions in the snow together, and one he's getting to be very good friends with. Their favorite activity is something that resembles mma sparring, with boxing, wrestling, takedowns, and body slams.

  9. And here's demonstrating the solidity of his newly reinforced cardboard box house on .

    As you hopefully know, taller ledges are in general better than lower ledges. Roy is a strong supporter of all forms of ledges. As are many of his feline kin.

  10. relaxing on in his upgraded cardboard box by the window. This box started to collapse because the big cats were using its roof as a ledge, so I had to glue in wood supports to reinforce the box. This is how their ledges and boxes evolve.

    Roy likes it in the box because he can peek at me or look outside, just by moving his head slightly. Here's he's peeking at me. As usual, his eyeliner gives him away.

  11. leading our early morning zen practice. His practice is much better than mine, but he does his best to help me with my bumbling efforts. Because of his gentle silent prompting I have seen far more deer and other winter wildlife than I would have.

  12. Two week firsts for

    1. Going for a short walk in the snow, which he's been studying intently from his window ledges for two weeks. He seemed ok with -10 c/14f for a few minutes but then wanted back inside, but investigated a bit.

    2. Meeting his new housemate, a big guy. 16 day gated separation, no real hostilities between Roy and the others so far . But this cat is the head honcho in this clowder so them getting along is important.

  13. is amazed at the things he didn't know existed and has never seen before in his life.

    He's always been an urban guy, but now he's in a brand new world with bizarre white ground and a forest. He's seen trees in yards but never a forest. He's depending heavily on me as his clowder buddy to support him because this is a big change. Thursday night we saw a deer walk by at 4am! He had never seen a deer before.

  14. checking out a box that suddenly appeared on the floor on . Something big is up for Roy and he can tell but no jinxing. Details in the future. It's really big.

  15. on lying on my lap. For some reason he's started coming under the blankets too which is nice. He doesn't come all the way under, his head has to be free. Cats are very toasty, normal is 100.4-102.5 F / 38-39.2 C body temp. Having a cat on your lap while reading is nice.

  16. helping me bake (yule cookies) on . He was slightly puzzled by my somewhat frenetic behavior but decided finally to settle in and supervise from his kitchen ledge. Here he's doing his sneak peeking, sadly unaware that because of his black eyeliner you can see when his eyes are slightly open.

  17. @jerry do my eyes deceive me or is the beast trying to grab a bag of Delectables licky sticks? If so strongly supports Gnocchi's efforts!

  18. Here's a few days before perched on a tree. I've been giving a badass squirrel peanuts on the top cross board of the fence. I'd just loaded it up and clearly Roy was scheming to finally catch his arch nemesis by sneakily waiting in the tree. But to give you an idea, that squirrel openly mocks and f's with Roy. He will follow a few feet behind Roy on top of fence lol. If you think of Roy as Wiley Coyote and the squirrel as Roadrunner you get the idea.

  19. @EpiphanicSynchronicity @ozamidas @anildash yes re excellent docs. When I was extending window manager and desktop support I installed everything available, in some vms. i3 had by far the best docs of anything I tested. Best man page, best web docs, so I figured if their docs are this good their code must be as well. Sadly the same could not be said for , the wayland i3 clone. Maybe that's gotten better by now. i3 docs also inspired me to upgrade inxi docs and public data.

  20. perched on his favorite high ledge taking a quick look back at me while staring out at the night on evening after our walk. We went pretty far tonight, around a whole block.

    How we started going for walks is a long story but suffice it to say he likes exploring and adventure with me as his wingman.

  21. Oh I nearly forgot. New 3.3.40 rolled out. This is mainly a critical bug fix for a feature very few people use (export to json/xml), plus a key name change. I have a rule that key names can't hold values, but I'd slipped and used BIOS or UEFI as the keyname, instead of firmware: BIOS. Plus a few small fixes. I tend to wait until there are enough updates to warrant a new release, but a bug that makes a feature always fail forced the early release.

    Bug was a silly bad copy/paste, sigh.

  22. doing full cat lotus zazen on . His practice is much better than mine. He often sits on a favorite ledge silently absorbing the world for an hour or more. Here he's just watching the world go by.

  23. getting some face and neck brushies right before getting up from bed on morning. As you can see he's a huge fan. I'm using a boar's hair brush I got in a dollar store. Roy says "Just say yes to Brushies!"

  24. surveying his domain the day before , looking quite regal. Unfortunately he has to share that fence with a big squirrel who thinks it's great fun teasing Roy. But the less said about the better as far as Roy is concerned.

  25. napping on under his fleece blanket and on his blue blanket. I have to admit it surprises me when he lets me put a blanket on top of him but I think despite being a big fairly tough guy he likes snuggling under covers like this.

  26. sharing a moment with me. I'm under the blankets, and he's stretching out his paws towards me.

    The only problem of course is when he's like this it makes it very hard to get out of bed since he's being so sweet, a problem many people who live with a cat are probably familiar with.

  27. relaxing on his favorite ledge on saying hello before it's serious nap time. He's obviously wondering why I'm putting that weird flat thing in front of his face but also in front of my face, but has probably assigned that to the set of weird incomprehensible behaviors his hominid buddy engages in.

  28. sitting looking at me from his shelf ledge at the foot of our bed on .

    Roy believes that the world is a series of ledges with occasional (and very unfortunate) flat surfaces between ledges.

  29. With a faint whoosh 3.3.39 goes out the door. Some nice battery upgrades and more cpu variants handled. I got a flurry of pretty good issues which led to most of the improvements and fixes. Also added a section to the inxi.changelog UPDATES: which are all the manually generated matching tables etc.
