I switched from i3 to Sway a year ago on my work laptop. I was looking into using Sway (instead of KDE) on my personal laptop too, but have had to drop it as Sway lacks the ability to load color profiles. I calibrate my screens for photo ed

Yeah, the mosquitoes in northern Norway can be brutal. I have family in the region and was invited on a fishing trip to one of the large salmon rivers. The air was thick with HUGE mosquitoes and after a while I gave up trying to keep them a

Delta Chat [1] is a good example of such an interface spanning all devices and platforms. Works suprisingly well! [1] https://github.com/deltachat

I can see why Mark is taking his company in this direction, as Facebook in its current form is getting old and increasingly losing the attention of the younger generations. To keep the surveillance capitalism model alive, Facebook needs to

I can reccomend this exhibition, visited it this summer and it does a good job painting a picture of what life could have been like. Lots of artifacts on display.

Thanks for making this, I have been looking for a worthy replacement of Etherpad for a long time, that is easy to use and has the option to be self-hosted.

A refreshingly honest and inquisitive summary of the topic. I have hardly followed the debackle, only heard some arguments for and against through others. This look like journalism to me, reporting with a great deal of uncertainty and not f

Podman is great! I was surprised to learn that the latest version is compatible with docker-compose (minus the Docker Swarm part). I have been playing around with it on my workstation (Arch/Podman/docker-compose) and it works real

I would probably not use this at my workstation, but I have several times thought about a VR solution when traveling. I do travel for extended periods of time, and have brought my 27" 1440p with me, but it would be nice to not have to

I just found a live stream [0] done by Drew DeVault one year ago that partly answers my question: Yes it is possible, but it does look kinda awkward as you have to move your head around more. I guess this is an effect of too low resolution,

Naming is hard, especially for a global audience. The term Fediverse has evolved organically to describe the many implementations of the protocol and W3C standard ActivityPub [0]. I can't think of any better term on the spot. The main

I have been following the development[0] of these laptops for a while and I am really impressed and intrigued! The freedom to hack and modify your laptop seems amazing and the design decisions should really appeal to the ThinkPad crowd (lik

I use the default keymapping for Vim with Colemak (Norwegian) and find it a pleasant experience. The up/down movement is reversed, but I got used to it pretty quickly.

As long as you do not use QWERTY, you'll be fine :) I have used Colemak for the last 12 years and have never looked back. I started learning Dvorak, but at the time I was using the ctrl+Z/C/V quite much and Colemak became my
