A couple of years back I tried Zathura, with the mupdf backend (if I remember correctly, this was the needed plugin for epub, so I also ditched the Poppler backend for PDF). I'm not a keyboard centric user, so couldn't get accusto

Oh, it's that stupid demonizing thing with the black octagones? We have it for a year or two in Argentina, they don't make sense at all. Why would you ever normalize against calories? You would never get all your calories from onl

We can always get the IMF to handle us some big ol' sum of DEGs, not comply with their requisites and ask for some more. I believe we're "too big to fail" for the IMF. But less tongue in cheek, this value destruction wi

Very nice, I like it. As a total ignorant on this space: a) how is this different from Canonical's Anbox in the cloud offering? b) could I use this to run banking apps that won't run in my phone (mainly due to the unlocked bootloa

I generally watch things on 720p, and it's been crashing frequently. Setting the resolution to 1080 usually solves the problem, but transfers the problem to my wonky internet connection.

Thank you! I'll try it later. As a sidenote, the circuit-y background of your site makes it unreadable with Dark Reader addon. I disabled it for your site and it looks great, but maybe you would like to check it.
