    Would you mind linking to your live-stream recordings? I love listening to choral chants and whatnot. Very soothing.

    Domains around here are amazingly creative. It's an important part of the package, and if it delivers a surprise and a chuckle like this all the better.

    Recenty my browser's home page is a real-time stream of randomly clipped newspaper articles going back to the 1600s: https://newspaperarchive.com/clippings/ It's fun to see what pe…

    I don't use Firefox often because of the constant updating that prevents me from using it right away. Chrome and Brave don't seem to do that, at least not in the same obvious way t…

    The gtd system by David Allen and a blank text file will get you 90 percent there. An app like Dynalist pro will get you the other 10 percent.

    The best time to plant a tree was 10 years ago. The next best time is now. This also applies to getting a pardon. Thanks for sticking up for animals who cannot advocate for themsel…

    The old Slashdot. I also had a website called hardcorelinux.com where I evangelized Linux, and I miss that too.

    I work at a homeless shelter where a young guy in his mid twenties recently had a stroke that left one of his hands completely limp. He's active and outdoors all day, but cannot se…

    My jaw dropped as soon as I saw this submission. As a Christian who has recently gotten into crypto, I thought it might be Ripple / XRP that would fullfil this prophesy. It looks l…

    My concern is that a lot of stand-up comedy is really "blue" and NSFW. Are there warnings or ratings for each set (I don't see any). Do you provide clean content?

    STAY WHERE YOU ARE and make arrangements to make staggered/partial payments at a later date. STAY WHERE YOU ARE. I work at a homeless shelter and see first-hand how not having a sa…

    I love this idea. So much potential. A way you might improve it is include tomorrow's Todo list below the tomatoes? That would also make better use of the paper. P.S. The price for…

    I use Readwise.io almost obsessively and would use your app too, but I'm on Android. Any plans for an Android app?
