I'm sure that it's right! I've no doubt gambling advertising firms will have been happy to see it over the line to get them off the hook. Hard to argue for a ban on gambling ads if…

I've heard this so many times. That age gating in AUS was started by lobbying from an advertising firm is a gross simplification / distortion of the facts but a good example of how…

But when governments do regulate (UK, AUS etc all) - people cry foul.

Appload and Xovi open up a range of options. You can build a simple frontend in QT and have a backend in a language of your choice serve as an API. Appload handles the display / xo…

Only with an extension, at least in the UK.

Yeah, that’s fair.

I really like their pdf viewer. It can be slow on complex documents, but I find it much easer to navigate around compared to the one on Supernote and Boox devices. Their ebook read…

There are images in geminispace, and audio, and (probably) video. It's just not inline. One of constraints of the protocol is that pages cannot load content without your express sa…

The good thing about the Remarkable is that it’s basically just a Linux machine and you have root access. There’s a great community of folk building extra functionality and tools /…

It’s another good example of internet sentiment being far different to popular sentiment. Polling shows around 70% supported it, though far fewer thought it would be effective. Pre…

Is an SUV needed for two children? I can accommodate my two children (and the dog if required) in my smallish hatchback.

Possibly, but it's not really sync anyway. You can pull and push documents, but there's no synchronisation. Not worth paying extra for.

Writing latency on the current generation of eink devices is good enough not to be noticeable.

If you buy the accessories third-party, the cost of the device is cheaper than most other 10" eink writing pads.

Huginn is an another useful tool that allows you to wrangle CSS selectors and XPath nodes to create RSS feeds. I use it quite successfully to get data out of undocumented APIs and …

I use, like and pay for Pinboard. I don't use the archiving feature though - it's just a dump for links, and it does that very well. I do worry that it's going to go kaput from neg…

Personally, I don’t think we need a twitter replacement. Mastodon is nice, but ultimately suffers from the same problems but at smaller scale. I think it’s more likely that users w…

I use Grocery on iOS for recipes and shopping lists. It does inventory management, but I don't use that so can't tell you how well it works. https://apps.apple.com/us/app/grocery-s…

I'm just north of you, and they are the most common bird in my garden. Perhaps there is something about Lincoln that they don't like? Though I can't imagine what, because it's a lo…

Solar takes up quite a lot of space, but most importantly only works for a portion of a 24 hour cycle.

You’ve got a few options on the self-hosted front. TT-RSS and FreshRSS both have quite advanced filtering systems that allow you to highlight or mute articles. Most of the paid opt…
