I admire your logic and life plan.

But, “deserve … geese”? Need more data.

The trouble is that, apparently, “perfect UI” can mean “let’s take all the sidebar tabs, remove their text labels and make all their icons really abstract and in the same colour. Oh, and change their order, too, while you’re at it.”

Thank you from the bottom of my muscle memory and pattern recognition. Now, give us back our old UI that was actually meaningful, or at least make it an option if you insist that your “clean look” is more important than actual usability.

^(Apart from that, I love you JetBrains.)

I’m glad you ask about things you don’t know. You’re a smart person.

A dead name is a person’s given name, in the context of a person having transitioned to a different gender and also changing their name to match the gender they identify as. It is bad form to then continue to call them by their birth name.

On my old android phone, I have a beautiful 24 hour clock (app and widget) which is unfortunately no longer available in the play store.

Just saying, it exists if you know how to look for it. It was named, believe it or not, “24 Analog Clock Widget”.

I carry some because it’s no longer a thing. My card has only the information that I know will not change: my name, email address, and mobile phone number. On the back there’s a QR code (which contrasts the otherwise vintage look).

I hand out perhaps one per month so not super often, and many times the most appropriate thing to do is to simply tell people my phone number. But sometimes, especially when we’re in a situation where phones are not nearby, it’s quite effective to hand over a pre-made card with that info.

The average reaction is “Oh, cool” so even if they toss it once they’ve copied the info (which, tbh, is my expectation) it will still have made the exchange slightly out of the ordinary.

Plus, sometimes they’re useful to stop a table from rattling, or leave a message for someone who’s not currently present, and so on.

It is working!!!

Yes, I’ve been on Norwegian Dvorak since 2002 or so.

Biggest problem I’ve had is with keyboards and OS’es (cough 🍎) that don’t support the Insert key, because (a) I cut my teeth on the DOS editor and (b) XCV are all over the place on this layout.

I will always use a proper full size keyboard if at all possible. Those 60% and whatnot are not for me (it’s bad enough when they move the arrow keys).

Oh, and the languages insisting on ${} characters are a pain on any non US layout.

Correct, it is not.

I’ve been extremely fond of “Our Groceries” for many years. It strikes a sweet spot between features and simplicity of use, and the devs are very responsive and have added several features after my suggestions. Really the only downside right now is that it can’t use the front facing camera on my wall mounted android tablet for scanning barcodes.

Holt died earlier this year with a secret: He was a multimillionaire. And what’s more, he gave it all away to this community of 4,200 people.

From the article (which could arguably have been both the headline and the entire article, but yay, clicks).

For added fun, macs use CR.

This used to be true, for sure, but I thought this changed with OS X (which is essentially PrettyBSD) ?

So you are the one who killed YouTube.

Never let it be said that a single person can’t make a mark on this world.

😉 No really, I just wish you success with your endeavour.

Good bot.

I am so happy to see some of the useful bots make a reappearance here. And you got yourself quite the nifty name, too.

Fastmail

Ohh, this does indeed look quite fantastic. I am certainly going to look more into this. Thank you!

_Edit: Ah, but $50/user/year. For the whole family that adds up real fast. Still, nice tip.

I quite disagree, it is very hard. Sure, switching search engine takes all of two seconds, and email can be had from many vendors free and commercial.

But calendaring! A calendar that is at least somewhat integrated with am email client, supports more than one actual calendar, and has real-world capability to share them with others - “if you succeed in this, two me how.”

(not sure this worked as intended. I meant to reply to https://lemmy.world/comment/1748023)
