I tried Collabora on a Galaxy Droid and it was such a massively buggy disappointment: in a .ODS file, I couldn’t backspace more than once; I could only delete one character at a time. I had to enter another character or move the cursor or do something else before it would take another backspace. I don’t understand how this...
Even though there are already a couple of other threads about this Schweinerei, there wasn’t a good place to insert this into the discussion, and for those unfamiliar, this video’s a good starting point.
Just wondering what people are using to meet the 2FA requirement GitHub has been rolling out. I don’t love the idea of having an authenticator app installed on my phone just to log into GitHub. And really don’t want to give them my phone number just to log in....
What if charging your phone took less time than brushing your teeth? A new study published in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences could very well hold the key to a next-gen charger capable of recharging your phone in just 60 seconds....
I've long been annoyed that everyone, including myself uses Paypal/ Venmo for moving money around. What alternatives do you find useful? Here's a list (https://alternativeto.net/software/venmo/). GNU Taler looks viable (https://taler.net/en/index.html). I would love to have your thoughts!...
It’s strange that it doesn’t have Waterfox. Anyway, that wasn’t my point in the first place; first, Mozilla has to release its bug fixes, and then all these other browsers’ devs have to release their own counterparts in response. It is during this window in time when they’re most insecure, since the issues are then brought to light while users are helplessly waiting.
All of that is incredible except the pineapple. It’s like eating Italian-sausage ice cream or something. Both are great separate, but certainly not together!
In economics class, we had to present a business plan. Mine was a coding summer camp for kids. I said the mission was “creating a generation of people who can work towards a bright future for the world.” In the slide that lists aspects of supporting that mission, two items were “libre software” and “contributing”...
That way my partner can edit their list and I can see what they’re editing while doing the same on mine, thus avoiding collisions.
Even though you say you want to ditch this system, this is really as clever and thoughtful as it is creative and incredibly determined (in terms of sticking to FOSS to achieve this). You’re inspiring!
Oh… I didn’t know Obsidian isn’t FOSS… Hmm, all I can think of is just some sort of read-only file on the other side’s end, and opening the two of them in split-screen…
I can’t imagine what that would be since FOSS itself is already so niche. Do you want to start such a program at your local library? That would be awesome!

It seems like every other week a game studio is massively laying off employees; sometimes after years of development. What I’m reading is that it’s a quick way to lower expenses and pad the investors’ pockets, flooding the market with developers and reducing their value, to then hire them back a few months later at lower...
the only viable option, assuming you’re not already independently wealthy, is that you have to work another job to work on the game in the meantime, which means it will take even longer to come out.
I rely on Bitwarden (slooowly migrating from… a spreadsheet…) and am thinking of keeping a master backup to be SyncThing-synchronized across all my devices, but I’m not sure of how to secure the SyncThing-synchronized files’ local access if any one of my Windows or Android units got stolen and somehow cracked into or...
I guess it’s in cases when I may not be able to use Bitwarden, but… I suppose it can be used everywhere! Clearly, I’m new to this thing, so that’s good to know!
