DuckDuckGo has a nice timer https://duckduckgo.com/?q=25+minutes+timer&hps=1&atb=v325-1&... Recently I've started using Kagi (I love it) and I am slightly dissapointed that it does not have any.

You should be careful what kind of links you post in your articles. Once I've clicked on /r/eatsandwiches I was too distracted to read the rest of the blog post.

I also used to hate shaving. I've switched to "classical" Timor Solingen razor recently ($25) + hard soap. While shaving took me some more time initially (+5 minutes every other day), overall quality of life was improved. Thi

I don't know about EPUBs support too much, my only experience was with Apple's iBooks, which (in most cases) handled EPUB ebooks very nicely (display-wise) with well formated, colored code and ect.

Thank you for your reply! Would you like to share your experience with your Kobo and how it handles (technical) EPUBs?

Thank you for your answer. So basically if you are from Europe your best bet is PocketBook. I feel embarrassed not knowing about them, they actually sell and ship directly from Poland (and many other countries). It seems that originally the

I've only seen Remarkable on photos, but comparing to all other (even the expensive Sony models) it just looks best. Maybe it's because its frames are white, and in these days we tend to perceive electronic devices with small (or

As for zsh, I partially agree, but you don't need to go with something heavy like oh-my-zsh. I use prezto, and it's great.

I've been using DuckDuckGo exclusively for several years now. But while privacy is a nice thing it has never been the No.1 reason. I just prefer their search result page design much better. I love customization options. I like !bang se

Credit where credit's due, the mentioned website (The Punctuation Guide) works very well with JS disabled, and the problem with text copying is gone. I use https://github.com/meetDeveloper/Quick-JS-Switcher

I also would like to use something similar but I wish to add new text on the top of the file (so oldest notes go to the bottom). I ended with something like this: nvim -c "+normal ggO# $(date)" -c ':s/$/\r&#x

There's a video by Max Tech which digs deeper into the topic (along with possible fixes): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EkmdHVfk4XE TL;DR: 1) It seems this is Intel's fault not Apple's 2) For fix - use TGPr

Is this US only, or does it work in EU countries too? F.i. if I have a similar accident in Poland, would it call 112?
