Gnome Desktop Entry Format extensions - bootlegged documentation

Gnome Desktop Entry Format extensions - bootlegged documentation

Note: if you work on desktop entry files, you should refresh them to see the results: Alt-F2 and run 'r' or 'restart' to restart gnome-shell. Otherwise changes might only work after you log out.

The desktop entry specification creates a standard for application launchers. Gnome adds several extensions to the format which are widely in use, but as far as I can tell undocumented. This is an attempt to document them so I can write my own autostart launchers for gnome. Pull requests are highly welcome.

There is a guide on gnome developer that explains basics about how to integrate an application with the desktop.

Autostart applications run when the user logs into the graphical desktop environment. All desktop managers make custom extensions to the format. This attempts just to cover the Gnome extensions, and won'

Custom Arch Linux live USB

Setup

Install the dependencies for the archiso package:

(root): pacman -S make squashfs-tools libisoburn dosfstools patch lynx devtools git

I recommend archiso getting them from git, there is a package in the repositories, however, at this time of writing, it will not work with the instructions below. So, grab the most recent version from git and install it:

(user): git clone git://projects.archlinux.org/archiso.git && cd archiso

Migrate repo from GitLab to GitHub Full blog post @ http://ruby.zigzo.com/2015/03/23/moving-from-gitlab-to-github/

char-rnn cooking recipes

do androids dream of cooking?

The following recipes are sampled from a trained neural net. You can find the repo to train your own neural net here: https://github.com/karpathy/char-rnn Thanks to Andrej Karpathy for the great code! It's really easy to setup.

The recipes I used for training the char-rnn are from a recipe collection called ffts.com And here is the actual zipped data (uncompressed ~35 MB) I used for training. The ZIP is also archived @ archive.org in case the original links becomes invalid in the future.
