it was inherent to the terminal that you can’t position the cursor and select text using the mouse, and also inherent that there are not right-click menus

There may be terminals for which that is a limitation, but with neovim in konsole, I can (left) click to move the cursor or select text and right-click to get a contextual menu.

Separately, the TUI libary we use for RESTMan is Brick and does support mouse events. IIRC we only support mouse-wheel scrolling, but there’s a lot more that is possible.

So, I think it might worth your time to try some TUI alternatives to your GUI environment.

Your larger point that TUI can’t fully replace GUI stands, at least IMO. Even for plain text formats (e.g. dotty) that I want to edit with a fixed-width font, an image (pre)view can be essential to some tasks. I don’t usually find that’s true for coding tasks, but design docs often benefit from charts.

You might in the future. Both vim and neovim are accepting genAI code contributions. There’s a vim-classic fork around, but it is “rolled back” to pre-vimscript9.

Yeah, but the LLM will eventually realize there’s no fixing it and delete everything. /s

Sorry. I didn’t pick the acronym, it comes from the paper: https://arxiv.org/pdf/2010.13163.pdf I’m not sure why there’s no “M” in the acronym, but I should probably spell things out when I actually want collaborators.

While I’m dropping links, I will also drop https://github.com/granule-project/ where Gerty and Granule live and where real research is done.

If someone wants to collab, I’ve been writing various codes around it: https://gitlab.com/bss03/grtt

Right now, it’s a bunch of crap. But, it’s published, and I occasionally try to improve it.

Also, Granule and Gerty are actual working implementations, tho I think some of the “magic” is in the right grading ring for the runtime, and they and more research oriented, allowing for fairly arbitrary grading rings.

The whole industry needs rebuilt from the foundations. GRTT with a grading ring that tightly controls resources (including, but not limited to RAM) as the fundamental calculus, instead of whatever JS happens to stick to the Chome codebase and machine codes spewed by your favorite C compiler.

I like you, weirdo.

Neither vim nor neovim are safe! (I hear emacs is fine, but who really knows all the people that provided contributions to the pile of elisp they call their emacs.)

Oracle is not the worse DB in existence. They are a worse company than MS, but I’d much rather be talking to Oracle than MSSQL.

(My go-to is PostgreSQL, tho.)

While I do have some control over my DNS and can create arbitrary TXT entries, I can’t to that in an automated way easily. I’m using Gandi.net to host my DNS rather than running my own DNS sever(s).

EDIT: Gandi is listed https://community.letsencrypt.org/t/dns-providers-who-easily-integrate-with-lets-encrypt-dns-validation/86438 so maybe I can automate a DNS-01 challenge without too much issue, I just have to switch away from certbot to one of the other tools.

It does have access to the HTTP root directories. But, it still can’t open port 80/443 when apache already has that port open.

EDIT: I guess my certbot renew just needs to be reconfigured to use a --webroot, so it doesn’t try to listen on it’s own.

Probably the comment has federated to lemmy.world, but the deletion of the comment hasn’t yet.

Looks like autoincorrect did a s/CRLs/Carla/ for you.

Technically my renews aren’t automated. I have a nightly cronjob that should renew certificates and restart services, but when the certificates need renewal, it always fails because it wants to open a port I’m already using in order to answer the challenge.

I hear there’s an apache module / configuration I can use, but I never got around to setting it up. So, when the cron job fails, I get an email and go run a script that stops apache, renews certs, and restarts services (including apache). I will be a bit annoying to have to do that more often, but maybe it’ll help motivate me to configure apache (or whatever) correctly.
