I rambled so much that I forgot to say what I laid all that introduction for. I'm not part of the market for these products. I don't have access to them nor even if I buy some impo…

I live in Iran and the administrative hurdles the op was mentioned are not an issue here because you just can't even buy intwrnationally to begin with so there is no hurdle you mig…

I didn't know about zines before and they seem interesting but aren't we wasting half of the paper surface (from what I understood looking at some images) A printer spread achieves…

It's funny how people talk about macbook neo being the cheapest option that gives you access to macos (If my brain isn't fried that was one of the points mentioned in the video) ca…

After 2095 hours (87 days) of not having access to internet it's finally connected. Am I supposed to feel gratefull, happy or what? Since this is my first time opening this website…

I use this same username everywhere and it's tied to my identity so let me keep it brief. I live in a small town and you wouldn't get much protesting or any political activity in t…

I've been moderately happy this morning to find out I can open hackernews. Also Gmail is working. After attempting to get bridges using email and configuring an dozen of them I got…

If it's not painfull you are not exerting enough effort at least that's the case in the gym. People who are refreshed and more energetic after going to the gym are the same people …

There is no reason to protect against bots using regular captchas (Seems like I'm weaker than your average bot in passing those). Brave search has a proof of work captcha and every…

There is no solution. The problem is not in the lack of funding or interest from investors. The public itself is not interested in preventing. They think the probability of somethi…

Damn. I noticed this happening a while back and I didn't think much of it. I just deleted the si= part because I knew it's not necessary for a Youtube link to work! I was curious a…

This piece of software is one of the few joys I have when using Windows. While reading ebooks you almost forget how bloated and slow Windows is.

People who are capable of learning on their own pace are already doing it and the ones that can't use this approach shouldn't hope that a software system is going to allow them to.…

I guess people only care and notice theire own prefrences. I never thought about 42" eink display but I'm constantly wishing for the price of 10" and 13" modules to drop cause that…

If you have more than say like 5 windows, trying to navigate to the desired one can be hellish. Here every windows have it's own place and by remembering it, you can navigate to it…

For me (been using paperwm since ) the real point of having them is that a lot of windows don't really benefit from extra width (heck even hacker news website shows white bars in t…
