To add to this, I prefer Ubuntu MATE, where "MATE" refers to the desktop environment: it's exactly what it needs to be, light and responsive and useful, without the need for a GPU just to render you friggin' desktop. It&

Buy any Brother printer and use the generic Linux driver. Done. Well, perhaps not the "replaceable parts", but that is doable with a 3D printer. I doubt Brother would come after you for printing a new output tray hinge or custom-c

Speaking as a European, do USians have access to HÅG chairs, or some of the other brands designed by Peter Opsvik? They definitely allow varied sitting positions and have a very high ergonomic track record. See for instance: https:/&#

Thank you for this, I really had a blast. As others have noted, it doesn't look so fine on mobile, there are a ton of typo's, and the discoverability of some things is lacking -- this latter point is, I think, a really great featu

YES!!!1! At least, I would love it if there were. Personally, my favourite device was a Palm, my brother's was a Psion, but the basic idea is the same. How often do you hear people complain or worry about their battery level? All the t

Although you already have a number of answers, still I want to provide another. I've been using Dvorak* for over a decade now, and I love it. Mind you, I never claimed to be a particularly fast typist on any layout, although I have bee

My kids are not quite old enough to require keyboard input (doing it, not receiving it, ya dummy) but I have pondered this very question. I have been using Dvorak almost exclusively for about 15 years now. It's not faster, that's

Man, it's annoying when things are named with such common words. Here is (I think) their web site: https://www.notion.so/mobile It doesn't seem to have a web or Linux desktop app, though.

I'm probably too late to the game, but here goes anyway. I feel that not enough people are mentioning outliners -- essentially lists within lists within lists. My favourite one is Workflowy, which exists as both a web app and a mobile
