Have you tried bumping the sensitivity? I found that the trackpoint made more sense when it was a light touch to move the pointer.

If you're using Firefox the keyword for controlling that is 'frecency'. Adjusting the values there in about:config will let you boost history and bookmarks.

Oh, that's nice. explorer.exe crashing and taking out the taskbar is common enough for me to just sigh when it happens (and then launch the task manager via ctrl+shift+esc). I'm not sure if that's a Windows issue, or corporat

What would you expect "wall ~/documents" to do? I don't really find that command names reliably relate to words. Offhand none of these would do what I expect: curl, top, git, gawk. less is a more featureful more, and who

Surfingkeys looks pretty similar (though I have yet to try it); I'm just describing the experience poorly. You press f, little labels show up on the links (I called this "listing the links"), and you then press the keys on th

I dunno. As another person who's also used tiling WMs for years, I find the mouse to operate in a different model, and I wish it was played with more. Like how in Acme you could select arbitary text, press the middle mouse button and i

Oh, it's really not anything impressive. I've just decided to treat %USERPROFILE% as for machine generated files only. I then have a new directory on C: where I put my documents/projects/etc (all in appropriate sub folde

Yeah. It annoys me to no end that the new powershell didn't take the opportunity to move the config out of My Documents and into roaming app data which in theory is where that sort of file should be. It's things like that which ha

Oh wow, and 7+ Taskbar Tweaker can't fix the grouping either[^1]. I use it in Win 10 to ungroup without labels as that's not a configurable option. Looks like the dev has moved to Windhawk, and that at least has partial support fo

When adding languages you define a function/regex to match the start and end positions of each language block. Polymode then scans the document, and runs the matchers. e.g this matches markdown code blocks (and also extracts the langua

I guess that could work if there was a way to make it describe important smells (e.g gas leaks, or rotten food), and also have a way to optionally describe the surroundings as I imagine it would be very annoying to be constantly hearing abo

You can also run it from any subdirectory as if they were in the root of a project (it searches the parents for the nearest justfile). E.g 'just build' from /proj is the same as when it is executed from /proj/lib1&#

I don't think KineticLensman is being pedantic. Those look more like examples of her being more than a mere "computer scientist", and expanding on her accomplishments. I know I forget that she was a Rear Admiral.

Just hit that myself a few minutes ago. Was testing a new program, and wanted to search the issues to see if someone had the same sort of UI problems I had (and hopefully a fix). No luck there. I then googled to see if someone had a workaro

Ah yes! I completely the parent's point. I would actually like something like that. My current approach is to use a directory.build.props file in the folder where I clone into (i.e. outside of all the repos), and use it to set the pack

You can use Directory.Build.targets, and Directory.Build.props to have shared build targets/properties—including package references. When building MSBuild will keep checking parent directories until it finds those files and imports the

I guess I'm thinking more in terms of faker, which I believe was a library for creating test data. Makes me wonder if licenses matter much for tools that are never intended to be included in the final distribution. Internal changes are

Would GPL help though? It's a library used by tests, not part of the end product distributed to users.

Acme cords are very simple: http://acme.cat-v.org/mouse They're basic verbs you use to interact with text; not a full command. E.g instead of executing "format document" from a menu, you select the document
