Another vote for syncthing. I have Synology home NAS, Syncthing in Docker on NAS, Tailscale on both Synology and my laptop so the IP address of the server is always the same, and it works way better than either Dropbox, OneDrive or Synology

To be fair, lots of vim proponents obviously didn't spent much time in editors they're dunking on. The extent of sophistication mentioned for non-vim editors is "you can use ctrl+arrows to move around". Followed with &qu

My main problem with E:D is that you can't casually jump in and play for 20-30 minutes. I'm just a casual player who juggle work, parenting, some side projects and occasionally I have enough time to play games. But if the pause be

The second paragraph begins with how much the author gives to charity. So I'm assuming that the author is very aware about ethic questions, and the whole piece is about painting the whole privacy intruding industry that dominates the e

My private conspiracy theory (supported by nothing) is that Intel promised to Apple good 10w processors back in 2014-ish, and Apple designed 2016 MBP based on that promise. And when Intel didn't delivered, they shipped Macs anyway, and

I don't miss MagSafe. I enjoy being able to sit on my kitchen table and plug USB-C cable on the right. And if my favorite chair is used by my cat, I can sit on the other side and plug the cable on the left. On the other side of the cab
