Reason (checks notes) hojillion-forty-seven to use @Vivaldi as your #browser of choice. Don't like the way your right-click menu looks/feels? Change it. I got tired of scrolling to get to the Dev Tools, so I bumped them to the top and liberated "Inspect," which I want 95% of the time anyway. While there, I got rid of everything I don't want or need, eliminating the scroll entirely.

As a #product professional, I adore this level of attention to detail. Well done, folks.

in reply to Štěpán Škorpil

@stepan Yeah, I wouldn't want to either. I just tested on another PC and it appears like they are not. Vivaldi's Help page for Sync states they are syncing "some Settings (more will be added in the future)," but there's no list of which settings are being synced currently.
in reply to Ryan Pollard

That's what mainly frustrates me on Vivaldi. Most of the configuration is actually not synchronized. 😢


what people have been using for years already will start working in #curl 8.10.0: -vv, -vvv and -vvvv for more verbose logging.

Up until now, adding more vs did not do anything different.

I’ve made an explainer site about vanilla web development, or webdev without tools or frameworks. Think of it as a new web framework’s tutorial, except the framework in this case is modern web standards.

"Do not hallucinate. Do not make up factual information."

Do they really think the LLM knows what that even means

in reply to Richard "mtfnpy" Harman

None of those are meaningful, no. Those are mainly to make the human feel better.

It's a prayer, not a directive.



1 year ago I switched from Mac to Linux for professional UX design work. In this article, I explain as simply as possible:
- Why I switched to Linux
- How you can do the same.

I cover design-specific concerns like:
- How to use Apple devices like the Magic Mouse in Linux
- Which design tools are available and how to install them
- How to find help if you get stuck

@realDonaldTrump

What are the chances that Crooked Joe Biden, the WORST President in the history of the U.S., whose Presidency was Unconstitutionally STOLEN from him by Kamabla, Barrack HUSSEIN Obama, Crazy Nancy Pelosi, Shifty Adam Schiff, Cryin' Chuck Schumer, and others on the Lunatic Left, CRASHES the Democrat National Convention and tries to take back the Nomination, beginning with challenging me to another DEBATE. He feels that he made a historically tragic mistake by handing over the U.S. Presidency, a COUP, to the people in the World he most hates, and he wants it back, NOW!!!

I guess for iOS we need to wait for mozilla to make extensions work. I don't know how far with their gecko for iOS project, but seems not released yet.

I use it a lot for UDS sockets when doing automated kernel testing. Is that in the list?


Last month @linuxflower and @ryanleesipes went to GUADEC, the yearly @gnome conference! Heather has a fantastic write-up of their experience at the event, which includes Ryan's inspiring, insightful keynote (seriously, watch it if you haven't already) and some conversations about calendars, flatpaks, and (controversy alert!) telemetry.

Elon si stěžuje u soudu, že mu zlí lidé nechcou inzerovat na X: „This is an antitrust action relating to a group boycott of one of the most popular social media platforms in the United States. The Defendants conspired to collectively withhold billions of dollars in advertising revenue from Twitter, Inc. These actions were all against the unilateral self-interest of the advertisers; they made economic sense only in furtherance of a conspiracy.“ LOL, piju vaše slzy! storage.courtlistener.com/reca…

I've been wishing I had a tool that could take an arbitrary date/datetime string and spit out the strptime/strftime format string needed to parse it.

Last week I decided to make such a tool and added a couple additional features that I hadn't realized I wanted until I was making it.

The tool to bookmark is at pym.dev/strptime 🔖
