Tiling Shell Advanced Window Management for #Linux#gnome desktops https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/7065/tiling-shell A GNOME extension for advanced window management. It's highly configurable and offers different ways of tiling and managing your windows. The focus is on delivering the best user experience, highest stability, and full customization. It also works with multiple monitors (even if they use different scaling), comes with a number of tiling layouts built-in but there is a layout editor to allow you to create and save customs layouts. Tiling Shell also features the Snap Assistant, borrowed from Windows 11: just move a window to the top with your mouse and the Snap Assistant slides in and you can place the window where you want and how you want. * Automatic tiling * Fully customizable keyboard shortcuts to tile, move windows, change focus and more * You can also move the window to the edge of the screen to tile it * Right click on the window title to place the window where you want and how you want it * Coming soon this week, Windows Suggestions: after tiling a window you get suggestions for other windows to fill the remaining tiles ... There are other features https://github.com/domferr/tilingshell Tiling Shell supports GNOME Shell 40 to 47 on X11 and Wayland.

Django Q on Windows We're developing with Django Q and Mac OS and it runs on our Linux Servers. Now we hired external developers which work on Windows machines and we discovered that Django Q is not working on Windows due to missing fork implementation. Does anyone use Django Q on Windows? answer: Use #Docker with local windows code directory mounted inside container, run the docker container interactively and forward a port 8000 to host machine, then run migrations, test server and other stuff inside the container.

Still a Windows user? Know a Windows user? Consider switching to Linux for these possible reasons. https://fosspost.org/7-reasons-to-switch-to-linux-from-windows/ #Linux#Windows#OpenSource

http://www.djangocrew.com/blog/how-startstopget-google-compute-instance-python/ In this post we gonna tell you about How to start/stop/get for the #google compute instance with python. Sometimes we don’t want (or need) a compute engine instance running 24hs every day but we need to run #task/s periodically. To solve this we can have an app engine task runing using cron service to start the VM instance. Once the VM has started, it can have a startup script that runs the actual task it was needed for and then stops the machine. #REST#Linux#Windows#requests
