snooze
- Snooze. Alternative cron jobs manager

Void Linux + KDE + xbps Notification via kdialog without octo (a simple alternative)
/u/Niki_Roo is right - better to dispense with the sleep and loop by making it a cron job. (or, for a self-contained alternative tailored to Void, snooze)

Newbie questions about switching to void
There are different things you can do, yes either cron jobs or there is something like snooze written and maintained by a void maintainer which fits into the runit/supervision design. I guess you could say its a similiar user expieriece as timer units if you don't want to run cron jobs. You basically create a service with the timing specifications and snooze will wait and then execute into the command when its time to run, then it will just exit and runit will start the service again and it will continue to sleep until the next scheduled run. There are other similar programs like at(1) and all the common cron implementations are available in the repository, void does not come with a default cron daemon, so its completely up to you.

How to implement systemd's one-shot services with runit?
I'll rather use something like snooze to create runit services for each timed job, which integrates well into supervision/runit and I can use runits logging mechanism. I can use sv to send signals to a running job or to the snooze process to immediately start the job with SIGALRM. I will have features like time files, which allow me to do things like "run the job every 5 minutes, after the job finished" or "once a day" while remembering state between reboots.

New to void - what might I not realize I need?
Which one you choose will depend on what you need. dcron is the simplest implementation, while cronie and fcron both have more advanced features. You may also be interested in checking out snooze.

Cron alternative with runit and snooze
Basically it boils down to using a process supervisor called runit and a fancy big brother to the unix sleep command called snooze.

Damn Small Linux 2024
I was looking for a lightweight OS to run on old Asus Eee PC 1005 HA, which uses a 32-bit Intel Atom N270 processor. I installed Void Linux (https://voidlinux.org/).
I may give DSL 2024 a try and see how it compares.

- Une nouvelle mise à jour de Systemd permettra à Linux de bénéficier de l'infâme "écran bleu de la mort" de Windows, mais la fonctionnalité a reçu un accueil très mitigé

How do I update one of these premade ESP32 boards?
My computer is running Void Linux and it has only a wired network connection. I can hook up my phone for USB tethering if I need to connect to the WiFi of the ESP32. How do I update the software without downloading some shady programs from filesharing site links on my system? I have the Arduino IDE and the esptool.py script installed.

Hyphens, minus, and dashes in Debian man pages
Classic "everyone is using the software wrong, but it's the fault of everyone, and not the software".
Some distros like Void seem to patch this out.[1]
From mandoc/mdocml's mandoc_char(7) [2]
In roff(7) documents, the minus sign is normally written as ‘\-’. In manual pages, some style guides recommend to also use ‘\-’ if an ASCII 0x2d “hyphen-minus” output glyph that can be copied and pasted is desired in output modes supporting it, for example in -T utf8 and -T html. But currently, no practically relevant manual page formatter requires that subtlety, so in manual pages, it is sufficient to write plain ‘-’ to represent hyphen, minus, and hyphen-minus.
Which is the common-sense thing to do.
Meanwhile, GNU projects become increasingly less relevant due to obnoxiousness like this.
In general the amount of wankery of "the correct hyphen" is staggering.

Thoughts on Void Linux?
So I was about to configure a new Archlinux build on my PC and came across Void Linux. I had already read about it a year ago but never researched it in depth. I know that is a Linux distribution made from scratch, with a different package manager and so on. Void Linux users or people who have tried it, what are your thoughts on it? Do you think the PM is easy to use? what about updates and bugs? what desktop or Tilling Window Manager do you use? could you tell me about it?
