    I remember seeing something similar on Masters of the Air, where the Resistance would question downed airmen : https://youtube.com/shorts/EJmmq0yc08U?si=dnFXr0IgJh18pmp-

    I agree… I add a capful of something like this if I think the wash needs it : https://www.tesco.com/groceries/en-GB/products/312705939

    One interesting thing to note is that many people use more force than necessary with their fretting hand. This was certainly true of me. Some hold the guitar neck with some sort of…

    The faucet seems a bit drastic. I got a 1L (about 32oz?) spray bottle of Isopropyl alcohol, and use a small spray amount onto a microfiber cloth to clean iPhone and iPad screens. I…

    When I started using systemd timers, I really liked the systemd-analyze calendar facility, to calculate n trigger times for a given calendar expression. For example, show the next …

    Yes, I think so. Often it doesn’t take much more than a glance for simpler edits.

    I think you’re absolutely right and I’ve come to the same conclusion and workflow. I work on one file at a time in Ask mode, not Composer/Agent. Review every change, and insist on …

    I have been adding .env files to .cursorignore so far. I can see from that thread that the approach hasn’t been perfect, but it seems that the last two releases have tried to addre…

    I should do a lot more with Alfred, but apart from using it as a launcher my most used feature is the clipboard search. After invoking it by typing 'clip' into the box, I get an in…

    I use Forklift instead : https://binarynights.com/ I can use it as an orthodox file manager (with the f keys I remember from Norton Commander). I also like using it to access remot…

    I've been using Jetbrains IDEs for quite some time. I currently use IntelliJ and Cursor together. Cursor is everything I hoped Jetbains AI would be. The TypeScript support in VSCod…

    Possibly, depending on the listener. But why would I bother recompressing when the various media players in the house can deal with the FLAC files just fine? On a typical home wifi…

    I think the ZeroTier free tier is much more generous. I also like the client app, which lets you be connected to more than one network without switching. The API is also nice... I'…

    Nice to see 1-2-1-2 listed, the PIN of soundcheck guys everywhere.

    I think the .cursorrules and .cursorignore files might be useful here. Especially the .cursorrules file, as you can include a brief overview of the project and ground rules for sug…

    I quite like the Sony Bravia UI. I did intend to just use a connected Raspberry Pi 4B running LibreElec to play my own content, but I ended up using the Kodi app from the Google Pl…

    I agree with you. I’ve been using Cursor for a month or two, as it’s a great speedup and a big step forward in DX. I’ve also been periodically browsing r/cursor, to see if I can pi…

    Yup, can confirm - for me, at least. At one stage, I started walking home from work at my fastest pace. 5 miles, 5 days a week. No other lifestyle changes. No significant weight lo…

    That would be fantastic... I keep them both open on the same project, as there are some things IntelliJ does superbly. I evaluated Jetbrains AI and Copilot with VSCode, but they ju…

    I don't think so. I upgraded my Fitbit to a Fitbit 5 when I started getting arrhythmias a few years back. I used the ECG capture whenever I felt something was wrong. As the irregul…
