DuckDuckGo has a nice timer https://duckduckgo.com/?q=25+minutes+timer&hps=1&atb=v325-1&... Recently I've started using Kagi (I love it) and I am slightly dissapointed that it does…

You should be careful what kind of links you post in your articles. Once I've clicked on /r/eatsandwiches I was too distracted to read the rest of the blog post.

Kurzgesagt was and still is the most eye opening for me personally. Topics: life, the universe, and everything... - Kurzgesagt – In a Nutshell https://www.youtube.com/c/inanutshell…

>so I optimize for razors that get the job done faster (more blades, easier to swap a new blade) Razors like G. Mach3 or similar are neither really much faster nor better in any wa…

I also used to hate shaving. I've switched to "classical" Timor Solingen razor recently ($25) + hard soap. While shaving took me some more time initially (+5 minutes every other da…

Hello from the Europe (PL). What are the odds of getting one of those if you live outside US/CA?

Are there any chances for better Vim mode?

I don't know about EPUBs support too much, my only experience was with Apple's iBooks, which (in most cases) handled EPUB ebooks very nicely (display-wise) with well formated, colo…

Thank you for your reply! Would you like to share your experience with your Kobo and how it handles (technical) EPUBs?

Thank you for your answer. So basically if you are from Europe your best bet is PocketBook. I feel embarrassed not knowing about them, they actually sell and ship directly from Pol…

I've only seen Remarkable on photos, but comparing to all other (even the expensive Sony models) it just looks best. Maybe it's because its frames are white, and in these days we t…

So in most cases affordable == small screen size, and the second factor is handwriting support. Also, is there a general issue with EPUBs, or just most of e-readers handle them poo…

As a developer living in Poland getting (original English) print books from O'reilly, Manning or others is expensive, plus this is unnecessary use of paper and space. Up until now …

As for zsh, I partially agree, but you don't need to go with something heavy like oh-my-zsh. I use prezto, and it's great.

I've been using DuckDuckGo exclusively for several years now. But while privacy is a nice thing it has never been the No.1 reason. I just prefer their search result page design muc…

Credit where credit's due, the mentioned website (The Punctuation Guide) works very well with JS disabled, and the problem with text copying is gone. I use https://github.com/meetD…

I also would like to use something similar but I wish to add new text on the top of the file (so oldest notes go to the bottom). I ended with something like this: nvim -c "+normal …

There's a video by Max Tech which digs deeper into the topic (along with possible fixes): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EkmdHVfk4XE TL;DR: 1) It seems this is Intel's fault not A…

I think Github (and other services that host OS software) needs something like "thank you box", that's just alongside Issues. Even if I am not able to contribute to some project I …

I am stil amazed at whan my late 2013 Mac Book Pro can do. Recently I've bought one of the cheapest 4k monitor (27" Philips 276E). Connected to Mac Book via some cheap DP-miniDP co…

Is this US only, or does it work in EU countries too? F.i. if I have a similar accident in Poland, would it call 112?
