It is cleverly hidden that the majority of search results still comes out of Google or Bing. Of course with their blessing. It is so damn overdue to have a truly independent search engine which ranks results not based on marketing companies

Thank you for dstask. I also have to take a deeper look into this submission. Are you aware of a currated list of git-synched solutions to note taking and todo management? I used to use emacs org which was very good in the beginning yet som

Yeah, I had good results reducing unwanted QRM entering my radio simply by winding a few air coils and zip-tieying them together. As far a I can remember the diameter of that air coil maters but here we are entering dark magic.

Zig is the legit successor to C++ , not Rust. In a sense that it will feed your family and get you a job in the future. Sure, Rust is even smarter and a savy Rust hacker is likely to run circles around the herds of mediocre Zig hackers. But

Using NVim with go-vim, disabled gopls instead using gopls from native lsp. I am fine with that combo. Markdown on Vim requires fiddling with formatoptions but combined with live :MarkdownPreview in the browser while you type in Vim is fine

Thats the point. Apps which only use QT like keepassx are ok but Okular would swap in half of KDE.

I am a fan of old portable radios. Early radios of that time didn't come with a power supply, you had to power them with batteries. I do not want to use batteries yet pretty mich every power supply I use these days causes either bad rf

I recently made the switch to gnome as the multi-monitor support, fractional scaling and general Wayland support is only excelled by sway. I sorely miss Okular!

Discerning products on price is so much easier than on quality. That simple quantitative measure will always drive towards lower quality, to junk. Buying quality is a tedious task and requires to invest your time. Buying expensive is by no

The problem lies much deeper. If you buy quality you buy less. Nobody wants you to consume less. You have to spend your earned money as early as possible. Do not accumulate savings, even better live on lends. Thats the force driving us all

I think you conflate marketing with technical change. You would like to announce a new major version with fanfare, bumping a version number. A programmer wants to be sure that his piece of software continues working if there has only been a

I realy like your tool. In fact I am slowly integrating it into a solution which will expose a REST API and workspaces identified by a UUID. In our organisation it is so common to receive an Excel or csv which you have to join with the data
