Probably true. The point is that most of these "need a real signature" requirements are arbitrary and inhouse. Not really legal requirements. So the processes could easily be done without.

Not to be meant snarky, but I think the office world should strive to print much less at all. Working at a University it is mind boggling to me how much paper is waster because someone internally decided they need a real signature. Not all

Using Zerotier for this for quite a while now and can confirm it is working quite nicely. TailScale might be an interesting alternative. Even more so as with headscale there is an Open Source server side implementation. Have not tested neit

I really like tiling window managers and wish there were more desktop integration oriented projects like Regolith for the i3 window manager.

Whats up with those parentheses for context managers? Python? Parentheses? I'm baffeled.

"Also, merchants are banned from adding surcharges for debit and credit card transactions in the EU & UK." Any pointer to this legislation would be appreciated. The local swimming pool lately started adding the transaction fee

Impressive indeed. But not sure whether I'd want a widget system built into my shell. Sort of breks the UNIX philosophy, doesn't it?

Makes me wonder, since there is evil mode and opinionated Emacs disributions like Spacemacs und Doom Emacs, whether there is a potential for an org-mode focussed and optimized Emacs distribution. Ease of use should be one of the core goals,

Nothing beats org-mode.

No first hand experience, but emacspeak is a long term contender in this field.

Brodie Robertson is one of the Linux Protonerds on YT worth watching.

He does not seem to be a complete mindless dummy. Ever tried to contact and argue with him? I'd honestly watch that. Same thing with Jordan Peterson. I must not agree with his stand points and positions, but his arguments are compellin

I share this experience. Frustrating. But made me give up on FB completely. For good.

Yeah we know. Does not keep me from cloning his st config. But yes, I liked watching his stuff much more when he was going thru his Linux/Dektop setup or advocating useful but little known command line tools. Not unlike Scott Adams. I

In the process of moving the mobility towards electrically powered vehicles all of Europe is going to need a lot more capacity. So all the disscussions about the hence and forth between France and Germany are quite moot.

"...the Trump administration claimed that its corporate tax cuts would increase the average household income in the United States by $4,000. But two years later, there is little indication that the tax cut is even beginning to trickle

Yeah, not taxing the rich also does not work. See the trillion Dollar tax break Pres. Trump and the GOP implemented. The savings were supposed to somehow trickle down to the "lower decks", but this has proven not to happen. Meanwh

Maybe that will be the right time to switch to NixOS. Have been uninstalling Snap on each Ubuntu release and will not start using it when they try to make it mandatory.

USB to Midi cables usually still need a computer or a synth with USB host functionality. You can not connect a USB Midi controller to a 5 pin din midi synth.

Some synths offer a USB Midi host functionality like the 1010music Blackbox, the Deluge and most of the Raspberry Pi based synths like the Monome Norns.

Just take a look at the actual weight of the Tesla Model 3. It is listed between roundabout 1.600 kg and 1.800 kg which is absolutely in the ballpark of the two tons every other mid sized sedan weights. Example : Volkswagen model Passat: 1

Yeah, but also they do not have a combusion engine made out of cast iron that sports a gearbox, clutch, starter, starter battery and generator. An EV has a lot less components than a combusion car. So much so that they can add a second trun

I fail to see why electric cars are significantly heavier than gasoline cars. Signifikant in the sense that it makes a differenc in noise.
