Should you be interested in doing so, my suggestion would be to offer an "offline" version. It could be feature-limited as follows: 1. Do not include the planned online collaboration features. 2. Support only Excel,…
Eirik, in case you're still watching this thread: I would pay you $400 for this tool without hesitation. I would also pay for upgrades. However, the $400/yr subscription model is a deal killer. This is fine if you're…

This is a wonderful tool and goes a long way to scratch the "library itch" I've felt since the start of the pandemic. Projects like this make me very happy that I donated to IA this year, and I'd encourage anyone else…
I use Orgzly and find it quite nice. The main difference seems to be that Orgzly is a native Android app, while Organice is a (self-hosted) web service that happens to render nicely in a mobile browser. I didn't to run…
Came here to say this! This program would be even cooler if it supported the dict protocol in addition to scraping OED. The dict protocol and CLI tool [1] were invented to solve the exact problem of browsing…
IMO the article overstates the danger of cubesats. If deployed to a low orbit (~ISS height) they deorbit in months due to atmospheric drag. You don't really run into the problems described in the WaPo article until you…
The simplest way to deploy your homebrew ROMs to a real NES is to use something called a "flash cartridge"[1]. This is equivalent to a real NES cartridge except it is backed by rewritable flash memory instead of a…
The C64 has at least one web browser as part of Contiki OS. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contiki#Features I couldn't find any screenshots of the C64 version of Contiki, but here is the Apple ][ version browsing the…

Sure, if you use a space elevator. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Space_elevator This won't get you out of Earth orbit, though. If you want to go to other planets, you have no choice other than reaching escape velocity.…

No problems with FF29 on Win7.
Because televisions aren't square.
You can always switch to Basic HTML view. It's dated, but it stays out of the way.
I have copied mspaint.exe from a WinXP machine. It doesn't seem to have any prerequisites, and still works fine!

I had the same reaction to Philips' blog post. I agree with his main argument, but not how he supports it. Basically, Philips dismisses a broad range of 8-bit media without knowing how it is made. He says all you do is…
Eterm does this. It does help, but it is kind of ugly.
