It's always interesting to stumble upon a bubble you never heard of. This is super interesting. I will probably (hopefully?) never need to use it, but interesting nonetheless. It also makes sense to have this type of application airgap

I'm honestly surprised Hepburn wasn't the official standard yet. It sounds way closer to the spoken sounds, at least to my western ears. > The council’s recommendation also adopts Hepburn spellings for し, じ and つ as shi, ji, an

I moved away from tinkering, ever since I had to juggle family, job, chores, and social contacts. I don't want to spend the little free time I have fixing broken configs. Instead of rolling my own self-build NAS / home server lik

I tried an ergonomic keyboard with just 3x10 keys (or rather since it was a split keybaord, 2x3x5). I found that I am unwilling to spend the time to learn how to use it, type special characters, numbers, etc. Especially since most of my tra

I'd say it still is. I wouldn't even know how to begin if I were to write one.

This whole article is a single big "but what about X?" argument. The main concern stays, even if it's just a tiny bit of your genome, even if web-fingerprinting is also bad, the sequenced genome data is enough to identify and

Things have moved on since then, as artificial intelligence has started being used in formalisation, [...] With how AI works fundamentally, wouldn't you still need to verify the results generated by AI? Doesn't seem like an appl

Chess960/Freestyle Chess is where it's at for me. There, the game feels fresh, it's about creativity and clever positional play. Sometimes when playing classical, it feels like a contest of who can memorize better, without ro

Slightly related: I'm currently reading manga on a normal Android tablet using Mihon. I'd love to read on an eInk display, but I'd rather manage my library on device instead of having to use a pc and transferring chapters man

As a parent working a full time job - I can finally play games again. As weird as it sounds, there was always a pychological hurdle to go and sit at my desk, boot my pc, select a game and play it. With the deck, I just sit on the couch and

I wanted to give OsmAnd a try, to replace my dependency on Google services. I could not for the life of me find a setting to correclty transliterate Japanese names to my native language. I only found three states: 1) Display original Japan
