Are you announcing a release or just posting to get some eyes on the project? I’m keen to read through a changelog before upgrading from trilium v0.63.7.

I’ve been self-hosting trilium for a few years and love it, would like to see updates though; there a few UI/UX areas that feel like they need polish.

I was initially unhappy about using a database to store my notes, and I do worry about how I’d migrate my trilium notes to another system, but the experience thus far has been pretty great.

I don’t enjoy how Calibre works. The way it manages its library in a folder separate to where/how I store my ebooks rubs me the wrong way. It also seems to like adding itself to metadata and messing with stylesheets.

I gotta admit though, nothing else even comes close to replacing it.

We got AoE 1 on the computer as a demo when I was a kid. Think the CD came in a cereal box or something. Played through the same beginner campaign a bunch of times. Was fun.

AoE2 changed the game though. Absolutely amazing. The controls felt so much more fluid and the campaigns were so much fun to play though and see the story. We managed to network all the family computers and would have big family multiplayer battles against the computer (dad carried us kids though).

My brother loved Mythology and while it looked pretty I never really got into it. Something about it felt slower paced and kinda hand-holdy.

AoE3 was just weird. You had a home base that persisted through games, how is that fair? And playing cards were involved somehow? The ragdoll physics was cool though.

AoE4 is okay I guess. I participated in the beta program because I was so excited for them to produce something that might surpass AoE2 but… Naah. It just doesn’t have the right feel to it. Very pretty though. They keep coming out with new content but until it feels right (something about the way the window scrolls and zooms) I just cant enjoy it.

I found that book tawdry, and I completely agree that there was not sufficient killing of mockingbirds!

They’re not concerned with product, they’re concerned with profit. They’re strategically cutting away bits and pieces that don’t make money. Incidentally, these are all the fun and exciting bits, leaving behind the blandness.

Check out GL.iNet, good hardware and ships with OpenWRT but with their own WebUI. I set up my dad’s place with their router and an access point and I don’t remember the specifics, but it was really easy to access LuCI and do the advanced stuff.

Autumn’s already here. Marking stuff by seasons is disgustingly self-centred for an international company.

I like this because the amount of bits in a stack can vary depending on whose foot you use to measure, or the thickness of the card stock.

This sounds really freaking cool! I was looking for something more in-depth than just koreader launched via nickelmenu. The world of e-ink just doesn’t seem well supported in the custom firmware space. Gonna give this a try on my Glo!

I tried installing Linux on the new work laptop yesterday.

The keyboard wasn’t recognised. The fucking keyboard.

Apparently it’s fixed in kernel 6.6 but nothing has that yet coz they’re all using the earlier LTS

I hated it.

Just without the genocide so far

Dunno how SwiftKey does it, but florisboard allows you to switch language by swiping, check out the demo video in OP
