I agree. I do have an ultrawide monitor and a secondary monitor and it seems that FancyZones doesn't (yet?) have support for multiple monitors. It looks nice and is useful but I'll be sticking to GridMove for window management for

I’ve been using GridMove [1] for last couple of years and it’s been great. I can quickly move a window to a specific location using a keyboard shortcut, fix windows Windows moved when I attached displays or came back from sleep. FancyZones

Aside from the stuff mentioned everywhere else, my biggest complain was ephemeral nature of the feed. If I saw something interesting I had to act on it at that percise moment or never ever see it again. No scrolling, no page reloads, no &qu

I've been using GridMove (in addition to AltDrag) on Windows for years and it's been realy awesome. Just recently I've bought a silly Razer Tartarus V2 keyboard just to bind window positions on GridMove to specific keys. Jury

Have you tried using AltDrag for window positioning? I've been using it for years and it's been a real life saver.

I was able to get a better deal when I started the move process. After starting that the churn team seamed more receptive to my arguments ;)

Can vouch for Allen Carr's Easyway. At first the idea that someone can _talk_ me out of smoking seemed silly. Anyhow I tried it via audiobook that I listened while driving. Near the end of the book I just... stopped smoking. This seeme

What worked for me was making the habbits as small as possibile, at least in the beggining. Want to medditate in the morning? Start with 1 minute for 90 days. Streching after waking up? Sure, do 1 rep of 1 exercise for a week and then add a

Ha! Often times they do that poorly as well. My boss at a company I worked for recently wanted to hire a guy that is living in Poland but is self-employed in the UK. The HR said to him, literally, "we can't hire him because we don

Same thought here. I've been playing squash for like 4 years and I still very much suck at it. The reason I stuck with it soo long is that we don't count points when we play. It's just for the fun of it, for the running, the

The percentages depend heavily on the specific university and on what you want to study. How this works is that you have a set number of spots. Each person that applies for a spot gets points for high school grades, additional achivements,

I get the same feeling here in Poland. I attended a "free" university and one time I got to talking with one of the professors teaching AI about other schools, private colleges in particular. She said that she does a few classes t

I do understand this point of view, now let me offer my grass-is-always-greener anecdote. I worked for 10 years in the software departament of a large IT distributor. We had a B2B web portal to sell IT equipment. The clients were all busine

Wait, what? I didn't say GDPR was confusing to me. Also, they said they'll be compliant in some time in the future so I don't really see what you're getting at here. Hope it's just a misunderstanding ;) The thing is

Same here. I could understand some downtime if GPDR was suddenly sprung on them but everyone had time to prepare. I could also understand them not caring about me as a single user (not deluded here), but since I pay for the service I'm

I went through a similar path. Tried everything and it all kinda sucked. Finally settled on using plain markdown files stored in a folder on Dropbox and edited by Sublime Text. I love the format, enjoy using Sublime for text-editing and nev

That's the reason why for some time now I only buy jeans with stretch. Way more comfy and they don't restrict movements so much - can jump stair steps two, three at a time.

Yeah, that would have been so awesome. I told everyone I would wear one even despite the fact that I would look like a total dork. I got super excited when they said it would be available around the end of 2013...

Same here. I had an issue with Logitech wireless keyboard and mouse. Whenever a pendrive was plugged in to an USB hub both the mouse and keyboard had their ranges reduced to about 20cm. I'm glad I can finally have some closure :P

This always boggles my mind. The hardware on those seems decent enough but the software is almost universally utter dog shit. Why do these companies treat the software (security as well as UX) side so poorly, considering that this is what t
