  1. I feel like I need to reevaluate how I send #RST reports in #MorseCode.

    After three decades of homebrew and #qrp radios without an S-Meter, I finally have a radio with one.

    Signals that I normally give a 559 don't even move the S-meter.

    Signals that I would give 599, maybe push the S-Meter to S-2

    Signals that push the s-meter to S-9 are MASSIVE signals. Overwhelmingly massive.

  2. Pour installer Linux en dual-boot, vous avez réussi à changer l’architecture des disques d’Intel RST à AHCI sans rien casser, sans réinstaller Windows ?

    Ça m’a l’air pénible et pète-dents.

  6. Ik zou ook 'even' Linux Mint op de Lenovo touchpad laptop (met W10) van mijn zus zetten.

    Drie stappen in het voorwerk voor de installatie krijg ik de melding dat de laptop RST gebruikt en dat ik dit eerst uit moet zetten.👇

    Afijn. Natuurlijk matcht wat daar staat niet helemaal met wat ik voor mijn neus zie. Of zeg maar gewoon helemaal niet. Na de derde fuuuuuuuck wat is dit nu weer heb ik tegen mijn zus gezegd sorry dit gaat hem niet worden. Ik kan best een beetje fröbelen in de bios zolang het maar de happy flow is, maar dit gaat mijn pet te boven.

    Zijn er mensen uit de Unix gebruikers community die in de buurt van Den Helder wonen en Linux Mint op de laptop van mijn zus kunnen installeren?

    @nllgg ?

  7. Weiß eines, ob, wenn -Windows ist installiert- im BIOS intel #rst abgestellt wird, windoof immer noch startet? Ich lese Widersprüchliches.

  8. #Markdown Is a Disaster: Why and What to Do Instead
    karl-voit.at/2025/08/17/Markdo

    Here's my article where I summarize the subtle and no so subtle downsides when you choose Markdown for your information instead of a different markup syntax that doesn't come with all the downsides of #MD.

  9. When in doubt of which type of code block alias to use in your RST file, pygments provides all available lexers 📜 for a neat documentation project
    pygments.org/docs/lexers/
    #pygments #RST #sphinx

  10. I generally like working with reStructuredText for technical documentation. I use it a lot both at work and on my own projects.

    But the little detail that a single space off on the indentation turns something into a block quote, which happens *all the time* in lists with sub points, is rather annoying. They should have stuck with ">" for block quotes instead.

    I see these accidental block quotes all the time in documentation.

  11. 🆕 release pandoc 3.7 ✨

    Features:
    • New option `--variable-json`. Structured variable values can now be passed via the command line.
    • Rowspans and colspans are supported in grid-table output ( and ).
    • Improved handling of inline TeX in .
    subsystem: the `pandoc.read` function can now be used in “sandboxed” mode, restricting file or network access.

    Please see the changelog for the full list of changes and bugfixes.

  12. Should I dare to do a "why #Markdown is one of the worst lightweight markup syntax languages there is"-session at a UX/UI-dominant #barcamp? 😜

    C'mon, do push me over that cliff! 😆

    Background: karl-voit.at/2017/09/23/orgmod 👉 it's related but would be a different focus since I won't push #orgdown that much - people can be happier with other LMLs as well as long as it's not the #MD hell. (Sneak preview: I'm writing a long article on all the MD issues in order to explain it once and for all since the Mastodon discussions are really annoying to me.)

  14. @pandoc

    Actually, this really looks well! I have never been able to manage to write #groff documents, but this looks really well with plain #reStructuredText (or #rst) documents.

    Aside from the comment about #Firenvim, I really don’t care about Mastodon, Facebook, Reddit and similar ephemeral stuff. What is relevant is written in my $EDITOR as #rST and then published on my #blog (matej.ceplovi.cz/blog/category).

  16. #Upcoming Following 2019’s self-titled 2 × LP, that garnered wider recognition, #RST’s tenth full-length release “Air” is a return to Andrew Moon’s more meditative work, revisiting delicate textures and carefully blending liquid tone sculptures to create undulating short and long-form six-string wave patterns.

  17. This particular #HP #Windows laptop has a #Intel #RST firmware managed #RAID. So it is straightforward to change the #BIOS to load the #AHCI drivers, right? Well, no, not on this #laptop. Apparently HP locked the BIOS to prevent this switch. Now I have hit the wall, since the #Ubuntu installer can't detect the RST managed disks. I haven't tried #Fedora.

    Getting frustrated. Anyone else in the same situation? (End🧵)

  22. is a to converter.

    rst2pdf compiles into PDF files. rst2pdf supports all of the regular directives from rST, but adds syntax highlighting, counting index numbers, and a subset of LaTeX. rst2pdf's page formatting, quote characters, etc., are controlled using a configuration file and stylesheets. rst2pdf supports extensions.
