That's too bad. I might need bluetooth on keyboard, mice, headphone/earbuds, etc. OpenBSD seems so nice, but right now it is limited to running as a server, and not a desktop, which could be considered a good thing, as…
It's pretty cool. I created a beautiful isometric illustration of home garden, which is worthy of being featured in a real book or magazine. I really like the isometric view to explain things, and the color palette is…
In Florida, the irony is that hurricane is the reason for not having too many solar panels. For example, Miami-Dade county requires commercial solar panel installation to have hurricane-approved solar mounts, which can…
I like the idea, as a niche project for users that don't have control over their hardware/OS, or run on USB flash for portability. Speaking of which, I have notes / journal entries dating back several decades, all in…
My memory is fuzzy, but as for me, Delphi died the day it suddenly became too expensive for hobbyists and students, and I couldn't justify spending more on Delphi than on a brand new PC at that time. Borland sold it…
> reduces temperatures by at least 15 Kelvin, bringing the ambient enclosure temperature below 40 °C, I had to do a double-take when it mentioned Kelvin since That is physically impossible.
I love this idea as I grew up with ancient dial up phones, and I miss actually holding a handset and dialing a number to make calls. However, gen alpha has grown up in completely digital era, and most interaction occurs…
see TinCan phone mentioned in the comments, which does this. However, it means that all their friends need to buy the phone as well.
Exercise "simulate the arduous tasks that were once necessary to make it through a life" makes sense, as most of our ancestors were blue-collar workers and farmers. I try to integrate more physical activity in my life,…
I'd probably run cmatrix for looks or maybe htop on the background. Also, Rick-rolled in the screenshot.
This is straight out of the movie "Her", when OS1 said something like this. And the voice and the intonation is eerily similar to Scarlett Johansson. As soon as I heard this clip, I knew it was meant to mimic that.
Wow, it can integrate with exiftool. I use exiftool to rename photo files, but I think f2 offers more flexible renaming features.
I don't know what's going on with this website, but it just slowed my browser to a complete halt, and I've never seen any website that did this. I had to restart Chrome but still have some serious performance issue.
I'm sad to see it end like this. About 20 years ago, I used to go to this Burbank Fry's after work whenever I could and spend hours just browsing. They had this cool 50's sci-fi alien/ufo movie theme inside. Another…
I got Atari 5200 when I was a kid, and the disappointment was immense, considering the marketing and hype that went into it. The controller made playing games very difficult. And the games were pretty bad as well.…
I bought a PowerMac G3 (from ebay, about 15 years ago) and while it was not very powerful, the thing was just fun to work with. I ran Linux and had added all kinds of PCI cards like old analog TV tuner card and SATA…
Yes, this might be the best solution. and put read-only repo on github or some public facing host.
Me, too. I got anxious when Mr. Rogers began to do the unthinkable. Surely he is not going to plug a ps/2 mice into a live PC, is he? And he did. Oh, so many memory of me crashing my PC whenever I did that, forgetting…
Aww man, I just paid for one out of my pocket just few weeks ago, after procrastinating for months. I use Obsidian for taking notes on my work laptop. I think I'm the only one at work who uses Obsidian, and everyone…
I've been using a free file explorer called Q-Dir (http://www.q-dir.com) by a guy who writes a lot of these types of utilities for windows. It has a quirky UI and it has 4 quadrants by default, but once I got used to…
This is great, I can just fill it out, and save a copy somewhere in google drive. Also I'd keep a printed hard copy of it and then save it in (fireproof) safe or a bug-out bag for escaping from disaster.
Van Neistat (Youtuber) uses typeweriter exclusively for writing, because it helps him focus, and also it seems to magically enhance his creativity. (He is one of the most creative person I've watched on youtube.)…
I've learned my lessons when I got my lifetime deals that scammed me: * archhosting -- lasted 2 years before it folded * zoolz -- changed their mind 3 years after their lifetime deal, and forced everyone to go to their…
I bought Pixelmator nearly a decade ago for my Mac, when I needed a decent image/photo editor. I hope they make Pixelmator free, as mac definitely needs a good default image editor that is more advanced than Preview.
