Certainly there may be loopholes ;-) Anything I've seen with things like wormholes would require massive amounts of energy and/or exotic matter, as well as difficulties in things like stability and actually traversing with non-neg

The speed of light (or compensated with very long travel time) is limiting, though. Much less volume within reasonable, for your definition of reasonable, reach both for ourselves and others. The universe, to put it mildly, is ginormous.

Same question here, there are several similar seeming slide systems and would be helpful to see a comparison or major differences in approach/output.

Good question, have run into the same problem of sizing/positioning issues. Usually can just manually tweak so it will be okay on typical sizes for presentations, but not optimal.

Thanks for both of these! I tend to just look up elisp stuff when it isn't clear from my Common Lisp knowledge, cheat sheets are perfect for this.

Could just be the view/layout? What about forcing desktop version on mobile browser?

Yes, along with https://old.reddit.com/r/ErgoMechKeyboards/ and https://old.reddit.com/r/olkb/ I'm sure others, too, and happy to hear recommendations as someone looking to make the

I wasn't trying to be all "doom and gloom," but as one concerned about tracking (yes, all the social media and stuff you mention, which I try to be very conscious about) the casual mention of adding in tracking to a particula

I appreciate the response and detail here, would have liked to see that in the original post.

....I have lots of questions about this "homegrown web tracking tool" (assuming this isn't still part of a joke?). What??? Was this opt-in? Did they track across everyone? What was collected? This is troubling, to say the lea

Are there any decent self-hosted options? In my searches the best (or "best") I see are more full blown inventory tracking platforms. I wouldn't mind something that keeps track of your books, ratings/comments, lists, and

Same here, never used Goodreads (though looked on there for book info sometimes), but have been trying out The Story Graph. Is pretty nice for tracking reading and seeing your books, even in a beta stage. Have also looked a little into Libr

Cool project, will have to check it out! Though, such a thing will just lower my chances of getting work done at the computer ;-)

Been a long time since I tried out projectM, looking to get that Milkdrop goodness back (and not on Windows). And just saw they have a VR mode.....that could be very very cool (and disorienting, in a good way?), can't wait to try that!

Does anyone know of any other music visualizers that are on the level of Milkdrop? I've never seen anything nearly as enchanting as Milkdrop, and with such a range of visual styles in the presets. As I mentioned in the current Webamp t

Thanks for this, very useful! I've been wondering about hosting that gives basic analytics [0], which is sadly absent without signing up and trying for most simple (static site) hosting ones I've seen. [0] https://news.
