After I noticed that their forum thread [1] about requesting LaTeX-style math notes was almost as old as my Evernote Premium subscription, I came to the conclusion that this is just a ripoff. I paid all these years only to keep my access an

The situation for terminal emulators is still bad on Windows. Those web-based ones have no problems with fancy font features like powerline icons or ligatures but they still have a limitation when it comes to color support. [1] Fluent seems

I fear a fast deprecation for x86 support like in [1]. After releasing the first Intel Macs in 2006 we already saw the last OS X release with PowerPC support only one year later in 2007. I believe a Mac has a longer lifetime than a smartpho

After using custom userstyles and the DarkReader extension in Chrome I tried leaving everything at its default bright theme and instead use a bluelight-filter at a very low color temperature (1900k). The result is still very ergonomic and I

Slack's desktop app has some sort of lazy loading for its workspaces which makes its resource usage somewhat bearable. Unfortunately, this is not the case with Franz and it used more than 3 GB RAM on my devices. Especially on a laptop

It is really confusing and it seems like they all share the same illumos as their common upstream. [0] I wonder what kind of 'scope' illumos has in comparison to the BSDs. The BSD's base installations seem to be complete OSes

With these app-only banks I am always considered about their security if their main forcus for the first years is to grow at a startup-like pace. This talk from 2016 shows how they cut corners when it comes to security in order to achieve t

This is great for understanding why simpler logics (Boolean) are computable but too expressive ones (FO) are not. As soon as the logic is able to make statements about itself, things get 'weird'. A not formal(!) but imho still int
