   So if both wings break off, I need to do unit conversion to calculate my remaining lifespan? Jesus Christ, what a horror show.

   Is there any sort of lower-level logging and monitoring in MacOS that would help with diagnosing such issues? I'm spending some time on a wonky wifi network, and so far it seems that it's high time to finally read about networking

   Idk how I'm expected to read anything on that site when a lot of unrelated junk keeps occupying the screen instead.

   Alas, I'm gonna bet a lot of images are an object in the center and plenty of white or other background around it.

   Alfred's (Mac) small memory footprint is partly because it delegates file searches to Mac built-in Spotlight (afaik). On Linux that might be more difficult to do since there's no standard solution for file search, apart from perha

    BTW, if you search images by the text ‘carcinization’ or related keywords, you'll discover that it's a topic of memes. E.g.: https://i.imgur.com/t8GXYsB.jpg

    The site looks like it was slapped together yesterday. Really light on navigation, in the bad way of me not being able to navigate almost anywhere. I can't actually search for an alternative to a thing that I already use or know, which

    Yeah, AT managed to gather good non-spammy ratings somehow—even though I do sometimes suspect that certain high ratings are artificial, but those are isolated cases. The site also clearly prioritizes open-source software, raising it even am

    I thought that by now game engines just have two extra checkboxes to ’build for Mac’ and ‘build for Linux’. Perhaps the signing requirements changed that, though. Notably also, plenty of games work fine under Wine, but Steam client itself d

    In case you're unfamiliar: it's a whole microgenre. However idk what to call it: afaik the more popular slowdown values are 400% and 800%, so ‘slowed down’ together with these can be used as keywords for searching. E.g. https:&#x

    The thing is, I'm never sure that YouTube learns that I don't want Peterson, and not that I'm allergic to e.g. feminism.

    My condolences. I'm pretty sure it may now take YouTube a full year to learn that you're not gonna watch that. Might be easier to remove the lectures from the ‘watch history’ and then methodically mark these recommendations as not

    Reader beware: watching one clip of Jordan Peterson will infect your Youtube recommendations with ‘woke’ videos for teens, and they will sit there for years to come.

    I ended up writing a few functions that implement that kind of an API on top of what Org provides—just a handful of them so far, ones that I needed for the last customizations. I'm probably not the first to do that, and vaguely remembe

    Here in the country of an encroaching police state, I recently learned that we do still have street ‘payphones’. And then, that they only work with special pay cards, and to buy one you need to provide your ID.
