paperless-ngx, after having to turn my apartment upside down to find some paper documents.

I’m honestly not sure how I feel about that reasoning.

It’s the drug dealers’ defense. Which has also been used for justifying the continued export of coal.

The NoDerivatives part is concerning. Is he trying to prevent forks?

I’d be happy with 2010 era desktop Linux level of support. It doesn’t need to get everybody to switch, just needs to be good enough for my needs.

I only learned to touch type properly because I was bored one summer and went cold turkey and learned Colemak. Before that, I had this weird pseudo touch typing technique with some keys being touch typed and others not, and because of the muscle memory, it was difficult to change.

Batteries are likely to degrade over time, meaning you’ll eventually end up with a worthless ear bud on the left or right and the only solution will be to throw them out. These things are often pretty bad scoring on repairability metrics, and I can’t even blame the companies producing them here because they’re so small.

I’m hoping these start getting recycled for their batteries, like the EU has plans to do.

Anyway, I feel full size wireless headphones are somewhat less problematic as they have bigger batteries, and you can always fall back to wired use (in most cases). But the proprietary app concerns are definitely valid.

if you aren’t American you can agitate and tell people “don’t vote, voting for the lesser evil means you end up with slightly less evil and that’s bad, instead you should not vote or ignore mathematics existing and vote third party which is a fancy way of not voting” and then suffer no consequences.

The entire planet suffers the consequences when Trump undoes all climate action and destabilises the world.

The point is to harm people that have less power than you do. There’s a whole political ideology based around that idea.

A major improvement already happened in 5.2+ but few devices support it yet (LE Audio with LC3 codec).

LDAC is a very inefficient codec, and isn’t lossless even at its highest bitrate. But they are all close to perceptually lossless even at relatively low bitrates so it’s a much of muchness.

The characters were just 2D sprites from what I recall. And the isometric camera kind of gave it a 2D feel even if it wasn’t actually 2D.

Anyway, hopefully this isn’t a Switch exclusive as that would be lame.

A couple of things:

• Biden was still the candidate, and a lot of young people were angry with him at the time
• Younger people are less likely to identify or register with any party (but will still likely vote in one particular direction). So focusing on the results by party identification isn’t that useful.

No official Linux support, which means no Steam Deck support as well. Yes, there’s Legendary but I shouldn’t have to jump through those hoops.

Beyond moderation, Phoronix is a case study in why downvotes are a good thing. Those idiots going on dumb tangents would continue, while the rest of us can read the actual worthwhile comments (which does happen, given AMD employees and the like comment there sometimes).

nixos-anywhere also works well for this use case.

four- or five-episode series.

It was six episodes. That’s how much was needed to cover how much of a piece of shit Vince is.

Not at exactly the same time since the app and watch communicate over Bluetooth. You should be able to pair and repair between the apps, but I haven’t tested it myself.

Basically, gadgetbridge is a third party open-source application that replaces the manufacturer app for a bunch of fitness watches (and other devices of that kind).

So you can use it to replace the phone connectivity functions (like receiving notifications etc) as well as getting visualisations of the data etc. And since it all happens locally, none of your data is stored on the manufacturer’s servers. If you understand how to work with SQL and statistics, you can also run your own statistical analyses, since it’s just a sqlite DB.

The downside is that you can expect it to be limited in functionality compared to e.g. Garmin’s cloud functionality. Personally I find there’s enough data to be useful, but other’s might have different needs.

Popularity has little to do with quality. And that applies to iMessage as much as WhatsApp, Facebook, or any of the other communication channels that dominate due to network effects and switching costs.

Garmin watches are now increasingly supported by GadgetBridge too, so you can have a fully offline setup.
