I am a non German, but I spent more time using German layout than the US one. The killer feature of German keyboard: it is so natural for vim (and IDEs with vim emulation) - the registers "+, "*, "~ are on the same key - `,`

About better linux support: VDPAU does not have browser hardware accelerated video decoding yet. It seems both AMD and Intel based on VA have this feature already. However, I had to choose NVIDIA only because of CUDA.

In European countries, banks are forced to provide CSV files for the transaction lists. Though the columns are different between banks,the importer function (of gnucash) is usually capable of handling the fields flexibly. The rest ist just

The automatic microtype is the killer feature for my own `unprofessional' publishing without Adobe suite. Besides, the macro language of TeX is not the best programming language IMHO, but it just works, especially for the flexible cont

'道[2]' did not have the meaning of 'say; tell' until the Song dynasty, which was ~1000 years ago. Therefore, it is questionable, whether the second '道' really means 'say; tell' in the text before 2000

I would use tutanota if they could change a simpler domain. When I wake up on the second morning after I've registered an email account, it was impossible for me to remember whether the domain was tunanota, notatuna, nonanuta or tutano

I was looking for the novel point for a long time. It seems that this is just a confined plasma by magnetic mirrors. Mirrors do not confine plasma well, at least for fusion.

I thought `Chaaya` could mean 茶叶(chá'yè), while 茶 is the tea and 叶 are the leaves. The interesting thing here is that the old pronunciation of 茶(cha) was with a long vocal (chaa), whereas 叶(ye) was short and sounded like (ya)

To be fair, mapping and geo measuring were forbidden in China even before self driving becoming a popular topic. Not only the foreign companies, even a lot of chinese companies are still not allowed to do such measurements. It was rather a

When I was using `xmonad`, I built a VTK terminal into the WindowManager. The whole implementation was just several lines in Haskell, using its wrapper for VTK.

I share the same feeling. I've done even a better boot loader which could load a simple shell on the floppy when I was 13. However, only in 16 bits and use bios INTs.
