    I'm a happy user of my second Tuxedo laptop after using the first for over 7 years, repairing several parts. I found their support very responsive and spare parts affordable. Your …

    I haven't been sued personally but some of my clients were. I told everyone to ignore it but had to update their websites nonetheless.

    Thank you so much for google-webfonts-helper! It's been helping me a lot recently ever since there was this questionable court decision in Germany that using fonts directly from Go…

    I like to use Spotify Release List [1] which is also a good replacement for the Spotify Release Radar. It just watches for artists you follow and doesn't include those that buy the…

    Others have mentioned the Internet Archive. There is also Zenodo [1] where you can archive code and have a good chance that it survives long-term. Zenodo is run by CERN and even ha…

    I like OpenLayers. We built a rather complex image annotation tool around it and OpenLayers worked well with all the features we added over the years, recently even a full-blown vi…

    I use a TUXEDO InfinityBook Pro 13 since 2017 and I love it. It's essentially the German version of a System76 Galago Pro. You can configure it to your needs, it's not too expensiv…
