It is supported by vueScan (of course), but Classic Mac doesn't. Film photography revival goes full swing, I hope there will be new good film scanners with MF format support. Nikon CoolScan 9000 costs unreasonable money, if you factor

WebDAV as standard? Supports. This particular combination of client and server? Who knows, good luck.

Windows officialy removed support for WebDAV. It still works, but nothing is guaranteed. It has stupid limitation on file size of 10MB, it can be lifted to 2GB (max signed 32 bit number) in Registry, but it is still not very much in modern

Looks like Steelserise Sensei Ten is ambi, symmetrical, with two additional buttons on each side. But not on a cheap side. If you can find one. It is still present on site, but I cannot find places which sell it.

I could live with (rather big) ambi mouse. But typically ambi mouses are very budget ones :(

There is one good lefty (not symmetrical) mouse now: 3D Connexion CadMouse Pro Wireless Left, but it costs 144€ in Europe (with VAT). Madness.

It has one problem: buttons not swapped physically! Yes, leftmost button is primary one (first), and rightmost is secondary (third). I have this one and use it, with software swapping, but each time I login to remote computer via RDP I need

It is why I (right-handed) was tфught by my first boss on first job in 2000s to use left hand for the mouse: secondary hand for secondary task (I'm not designer, artist or pro-gamer, so keyboard is primary tool). Now I have a big probl

Somewhat tangent: x86-based laptops of this brand (it is new to me, I never meet Tuxedo Computers before) looks attractive, but there is no information about their screens main property: are they glossy or matt? My wife is very sensitive to

Nope, UI for mpd shows that there is 11093 albums in my collection, but first several screens of Albums is all sequences of `?`. Very useful. Number itself doesn't looks right, my estimation is at least half of this number, maybe less.

When I've tried MPD last time (about 2 years ago, to be honest) it failed to play wv.iso format, and I have this abomination in my collection. Also, it is not very good with broken tags, MP3 tags in local codepages (different for diffe

KiCAD becomes better and better, but one limitation embedded into its DNA is very annoying: one project - one schematic - one PCB. It is very kludgy and cumbersome to split project into several PCB (for example, stack of PCBs connected by b

Adobe products, for example. Or any of other of miriad of other products which have only Win/MacOS and no Linux support. And, no, Wine cannot run anything. You see, I don't need OS at all, I need applications. Some of these applic

Unfortunately, it doesn't help. Almost any digital camera RAW format is TIFF inside. And you can see how much kludges good metadata library needs to read all of them: offsets from the IFD, offsets from beginning of file with or without

Thank you, I've missed this one. Problem is, these prepared images contain Linux binaries. Using Linux emulation in FreeBSD for OSS project doesn't feel ... right?

I'm using FreeBSD for self-hosting, home NAS and router from version 2.2.0. As it is my hobby projects, I don't want to migrate to Linux which is, IMHO, over-represented. But it become harder and harder in recent years. Reason? Do

My bad, I've dug dipper into the problem now and now see, that this is really a problem. You are right. But, again, what is simpler: add feature to existing OSS project or write all new protocols? Second is more fun, for sure, I can un

I had complains about "too long lines" in my e-mails many times and now try to use EOLs, unfortunately. It is exactly what I said: all modern, GUI e-mail clients suck at basic functions, like displaying simple message with several

dovecot is not SMTP server. And there is standard way to encode any charset in (almost any) message header for ages. We never will create e-mail messages with headers by hand in telnet session anymore, anyway.

Problem with clients not protocols but UI&UX. New protocols can change nothing in this area. Maybe, Apple Mail is good, again, I don't know as I'm not using Apple, but I don't know any client for Windows and/or OSS w

What do you mean, dovecot can't handle UTF-8? It works with any properly MIME-encoded message on one hand and allows (even requires) proper UTF-8 for folder and namespace names on the other hand. I don't have any problems to use U

Very nice text with very nice voice. It is nothing new to me, but I think it is very-very good introduction to film SLR cameras in particular and photography basics (aperture, shutter speed, depth of field, etc) in general for person who ne

It is not clear, does compiler explicitly knows about properties of `NonNull` (for example, that it has neutral value to collapse `Option<NonNull<T>>`), so it is part of compiler, or it is expressed in type system, so it is part
