I use Strawberry as my music player on Linux, which is a native Qt app and has Spotify integration. No need for the spotify app. Strawberry has great collection support as I own thousands of ripped CDs.

Gitea did a lot of work over the last view releases (since 1.21 onwards) and are really GitHub-like nowadays UI-wise. Plus it is no SPA anymore and mostly SSR with Go templates + Htmx, its site performance lets GitHub cry by the wayside. Be

The Ergodox was also too unstable with high tilting for me, so I search for other options. I found the Dygma Raise. Been using it for 3 years now, it is a blessing. I will buy a Raise 2 wireless for my work desk in the office too now. I can

I totally feel you. I visited CERN in 2002 when LHC was already in construction and we also visited the construction site of one of the earliest detectors ever build there. This thing was really really huge. We also visited the data center

Thanks for the link. I observed a flock of "mourning" crows around a dead one in the field behind my yard. I was flabbergasted at what I was seeing. So they are mourning and investigating the cause of death for the sake of the flo

I live next to a farm in a rural town. We have lots of cats around which are necessary to keep the rodents in check. Our cats love to play their prey to death in our yard (yeah nature is cruel). Some of the local crows know how to get the d

Exactly my thoughts. There are so many good alternatives already, it's insane to me that people still use this garbage. LibreWolf is a godsend

That's why you buy different sized bins, and then you can even combine some forms into one bin (but be careful not to combine similiar forms, this counters the goal).

There are less different forms than any normal brick enjoyer has bricks of a specific color. Therefore the lookup is faster ;)

> ... and sort LEGO bricks by colour You never sort by color, ever! You sort by form, and then throw every color of that specific form in one bin. If you throw every red brick in the same bin, you'll never find a specific formed red

Ever since Steam released in Beta for Linux (proud owner of the Tux accessory for the Demoman in TF2!) I switched to Linux and stayed there. In the beginning I ran Ubuntu 12.04 and used Steam there. I also used Wine to run Diablo 3 and WoW,

Life is to short to learn and memorize Vi / Helix keybinds. That's why I stay with Micro as terminal editor.

Some crypto bro got scammed while being involed in some AI shit? How ironic. Yet, the extension dilemma is also utterly shit. That's why I stay far away from "VSCode and friends"

Yeah I feel you. So many projects do this nonsense.

By looking at the screenshots I thought this looks a lot like Godot. So there is my answer ;)

This looks a lot like Godot to me. So I would rather go with Godot instead. But nevertheless this looks like an awesome tool, less friction for creating story driven games is a good thing. Maybe I give it a try.

Yes it does. Also written in Go and pretty hackable.

Oh no, Amazon does comply with regulatory laws of specific countries in order to make business there? How utterly shocking...

I really favor posix style, which is why I use pflags package for my cli Tools.

I agree, and I feel like the reason to this is the mere existence of 'jq'. Without 'jq' working with json in a Unix shell would be a lot more uncomfortable, but not impossible.

I absolutely feel the same way. For me Node/NPM is the stuff of nightmares. It is freaking impossible to maintain any decent sized project (even side project) in this eco system within a reasonable time investment. Then there is Go + S

In Germany we have Self HTML ( https://wiki.selfhtml.org/wiki/SELFHTML ) since 1995. I learned all the web dev basics with it as a 12 year old. It was the kickstart for my career, and 28 years later I can safely say I wa

Which is basically anything that is done on company hardware. Also there is a compliance factor, at least at my company.
