Good dev.

Most companies I worked with had a choice of the work laptop, usually Windows/Linux or MacBook. And the trick is, you cannot buy cheap MacBook. So the choice is using linux but with a terrible screen, unusable trackpad and bad hardware, or take MacBook and enjoy all premium.

So I always take MacBook and then ask for a local workstation where I will have linux with i3 / Sway WM.

Most people don't care about ethics /politics or the networks and corporations. They will use what's convenient — familiar facebook where friends and family already are, instagram where you get (this frustrates me the most) announcements from cool places about events, twitter where shitshtorms and instant news happen and so on.

None of my friends moved or know about Fediverse. Some heard about Mastodon.

According to website,

Highly compact single-piece system ideal for dismounted and covert operations.

I read it and was trying to understand why Death suddenly speaks German on 3rd panel xD

Microsoft SwiftKey from me.

Best features I'm sticking for:

1. Keyboard layouts could be combined (e.g. de/en together).
2. Auto punctuation is great: space after comma and full stop, full stop pn double space (but only if makes sense) etc.
3. Very customisable.
4. Suggestions are good for all languages I use.

I first thought this is a post in NCD.

On houses missing numbers: this is likely incomplete data in OSM and you could join the crowd to fix it. I recommend SCEE app, where you contribute by resolving questions nearby, earn points and compete. It's actually fun :)

Termodynamically speaking, less efficient than a table fan.

And it will either be free or cost almost nothing.

Why it's important to know? There was a question from American student in Germany on r/germany. They had an abdomen pain and roommate called an ambulance without asking. Student was terrified as they thought it won't be able to pay the bill afterwards. American health system sucks :(

Additionally, the inscription "1941" was changed to "1939" - the year when World War II began.

Why it was 1941-1945, for context, from wiki:

On 9 April 2015, the Ukrainian parliament replaced the term Great Patriotic War (1941–1945) (Velyka vitchyzniana viina) in the country's law with the "Second World War (1939–1945)" (Druha svitova viina), as part of a set of decommunization laws. Also in 2015, Ukraine's "Victory Day over Nazism in World War II" was established as a national holiday in accordance with the law of "On Perpetuation of Victory over Nazism in World War II 1939–1945". The new holiday is celebrated on May 8 and replaces the Soviet-Russian Victory Day, which is celebrated on May 9. These laws were adopted by the Ukrainian parliament on April 9 2015 within the package of laws on decommunization.

It sea4ches in different languages, but there is no way to force language of the results. Instead, ot tries to be "smart" and uses languages of the region. So it has the same problem Google and Bing does: giving you results in random languages outside of language region (or in multi-lingual regions), even when request is explicitly in language A.

There is a feature request to implement this setting, but not much hope to have this soon.

On this note, if someone knows of a search engine that allows specifying language of results, please let me know :)

Language is not a region, see: https://kagifeedback.org/d/89-language-vs-region/31

That's means of reproduction

History of the "Carol of the Bells", interesting to read and to hear original arrangement by Leontovych.

And yes, goes hard!

GBoard is only fine if you live in US and speak no other languages :)

It doesn't support automatic space addition after punctuation outside of English, doesn't support combined keyboard layouts (writing thos from a combined de/en layout on SwiftKey).

I wish customizing GUI was easier on firefox than with userChrome.css.

After installing TST one would want to remove sidepanel header and default horizontal tabs.

Every browser supports adding custom search engines to the list. So you can prepare a query with all terms to be added and save it as a search engine. Fediverse search based on Google/Bing

After a few recent photo shoots, edited photos on the go on Pixel Fold, mostly in Google Photos. AI tools and basic adjustments are great (with Google One subscription) and you get ready to share album in the end. Snapseed if I need more detailed edit.

It works, but far from perfect yet. Screen space is not used efficiently, device starts to heat up after long use of internal screen, lack of stylus.

Looking to buy Samsung tablet, waiting for Tab S8 series to be announced to compare.

I have a Samsung TV (was not my choice), and it's a hell for privacy, software is terrible.

Now it has no access to any network, all features that could be disabled are disabled. I use CCwGTV as an OS for my apps, but that could be any dongle or PC.

Could someone ELI5 how this works?

I just finished the docker containers setup with VPN - qbittorrent - sonarr/radarr/..arr - jellyfish and it's not well automated yet, but quite safe and not too complicated to use.

Recently had to pay quite a settlement for being too clumsy and too lazy in my country, so worried how Stremio works and if it could leak.

Those snippets could be a category on firefox AddOn store. With reviews, comments, screenshots etc, just like themes. Installable / previewable with a single click.

Who could deliver a feature request to Mozilla please? :)

Much more coherent version, thank you for sharing.

People use whatever 'Internet icon' came with their device and live their ignorant, but happy life :)

I really wanted to use something FOSS or at least non-adobe, but after a few hours gave up and bought a year subscription for Lightroom.

My use-case: on Android tablet I need a rating/flagging functionality with photo management. It just doesn't exist outside of Lightroom unfortunately.

I use Darktable on Laptop. There is no iOS/Android version.

Open for suggestions if I missed something.

Still the case, got my B197 driving license last week in Bavaria. You have 10 lessons with manual as part of your education, then the rest + exam on automatic. B197 allows to drive both, B allows automatic only.

Si ce we are on topic, is there a way to have DeArrow on mobile? (potentially I could install it on FF, but would prefer an app for YT).

Mopeds

r/trees

Great job on a few first symbols and images! I have started a new ambitious project, please join me (URL with template already): LINK

Thanks for recommendation, didn't know Mullvad discontinued port forwarding. That was a reason I chose them a year ago.

Now will tale a look at ProtonVPN and AirVPN as alternatives.

Your answer is amazing, you covered it all and so concise, that should be on FAQ :)

This is a great work! Documentation is clear to a person not familiar with the topic (me). Will try that out and provide feedback, thank you!

Thanks for clarification!

Just found video tutorials inside Snapseed and realised I missed a few powerful tools. I will give it another go next time!

Media will start comparing them to cheesburgers.

That sounds like a bug!

I upload photos either via sync on Pixel7Pro (taken with the phone or with mirrorless camera) or from laptop via Google Sync. Metadata, exif, location and time are on all photos where it originally has been present.

Using storage saver upload since it's visually impossible to distinguish from original quality.

It should be built in at this point. It's annoying to apply userChrome.css tweaks to remove normal tabs and sidebar header.

Noted, thank for advice!

I would prefer russia to dissolve even further. It's not just putin's wars, it's a systematic issue unresolved since before ww2.

So I would rather imagine what wonderful things Europe could do together with Ukraine (https://ukraineworld.org/articles/ukraine-explained/ukraine-space-7-things-worth-knowing) if russia wasn't trying to conquer and control all neighbouring states.

F*ck russia.
