I would go with two approaches. One in-cloud backup, maybe the same provider (to save traffic, but under different account). Second low-tech offline onsite backup. You do not even …

> The chief hurdle in constructing a Death Star is not the energy, materials, or even knowledge needed. Any proof for that? Death Star is big as a Moon, it has energy of several mi…

How much time you spend reading the news? It this point, I would probably invest some time into automating it even more. Download all articles, and save them into PDF. Create full …

Run your own blog, on your own domain with github. It takes like 2 hours to setup and costs $20/year. Lately, it really feels like the whole "social media" decade was a dead end.

I have EV (electric bike). I would also like to buy small electric car for driving around city. I hate 2 ton luxury monsters that require 100 000 watts for charging.

Chinese EVs are not allowed in Europe for safety reasons. Audi, Jaguar, GM, Kia... had recalls due to battery fire risks. It is just my observation, but I think Tesla is like 5 yea…

Alibaba has all sorts of wire twisting machines, tools and pliers...

I hate EVs with passion, but Tesla is the only EV manufacturer without major quality issues (it randomly explodes far less often).

Dolphin isa a bit useless for serious operations. It uses KIO for file operations (copy, move...), that invokes separate API call for every file, and is very slow and unreliable fo…

Take bullet point, and move it to new page. Or extract all mentions of tag into single page. There are some basic hotkeys and commands. Refactoring is perhaps strong word, more lik…

I have text notes that go back to 1997, PDF annotation notes back to 2003. I use PDF annotations for books, articles and webpages (save to PDF). About 70 gigabytes of annotated PDF…

Logseq is journaling app with graphs. Notes are not organized in folders, but tags. I find journaling much better. I never procrastinate deciding into what category/folder/doc note…

> which can be used with absolutely anything Not really, markdown has tons of tiny implementation details. And I can not use PDF annotation plugin in Emacs...

I prefer Logseq. It does not need plugins for basic things (PDF annotations). And is completely opensource with transparent development on Github. And I find its workflow much bett…

"Comparable" human benchmarks may be a bit misleading. Waymo drives far safer and less assertive, on turns it does not push itself into traffic and waits longer... It is still pret…
