That's nice! That may not seem like an obvious use-case when only thinking about a piano, but since it's mapping MIDI keys to commands, I guess it should be able — or at least no very far from being able — to map ergonomic MIDI co

It's great. I've been using it as a single-user Matrix homeserver for a little more than one year now and haven't had any issue with it whatsoever. It's taking around 100 MiB of resident memory and consuming 0% of the CP

Hi Timo! I've been using Conduit for 10 months now and I love it. Thank you so much for it! I've two questions: - Is there any concern to have with regards to its future when you finish university? You seem to be by far the most a

It's sans-serif, hence the difference. What's extremely interesting is that on my laptop, HN is 12px when Firefox is full screen, but 13.33px when Firefox only uses the left or right half of my screen.

Major French computer store LDLC (and its subsidiary materiel.net) sells modern laptops with FreeDOS preinstalled (so you don't have to buy Windows). I wonder if that's something others do as well.
