No, but the island's climate will still be chill.

Hey, I like weather sense! Mind if I use it? :)

I love this! But won't the machine easily pick up on this?

What do you do with it? Genuinely curious!

This is like porn for me :)

It's one of my favourite things, looking at and analyzing older interfaces. Some are lovely, some are cute, some are ugly, but most are... "naïve"? I love to think about the effort, the research, the trials and tribulations. I feel I will spend a great deal of time in this page!

Right. So you don't ever donate to anything, right? Just in case. The future. You know?

Did you do it before they did so?

I suppose you could have a gasoline powered battery and then charge electronics with that, no?

The obnoxious hijacking of the scrolling is present on desktop too. Can't read the small box because it'll scroll to the next project. Why?

"May be able" refers to collect, which is entirely up to the app. It does have access to password as you write them with it. It doesn't know what you're writing and it MAY collect. But it's not clear if it does collect.

So you don't grok it. You understand it, but don't grok it. Respect the martian :)

But Linux is getting better each year (seriously, KDE is amazing, Gnome works well if you like it), made by hundreds of independent people, while Mac is getting worse, made by one focused company.

I've had no problem whatsoever with 2 laptops regarding power management or audio.

Get a major distro and major software if you don't want to wander into problems.

I agree, but it is there: perfect amount of sugar: 0, perfect milk-to-coffee ratio: 0 to 1.

What really gets on my nerves is the justified text...

Well, the idea of Linux was "a better minix" and "I’m doing a (free) operating system (just a hobby, won’t be big and professional like gnu) for 386(486) AT clones".

As I thought: you can set a different shortcut for "Beginning of line" and it will work in Qt input fields but, sadly, not others. I don't know if this is the step you're on.

I'm not sure this is the reason or a big reason, but I think this is very difficult to do in Linux, sadly.

What makes Linux great is also its biggest handicap, in my opinion, when it comes to User Experience: the fragmentation of UI frameworks and libraries.

I imagine having this control between Qt, GTK and other UI libraries and electron-type-apps os difficult if not impossible.

Im not OP but i have a player for my kids which is basically the same. I do both. Sometimes I introduce songs and we talk about it, other times they hear something somewhere and ask me for it.

I agree. I would just like that they didn't have to exploit workers. It seems something that could be done. Have more people taking smaller or less frenetic shifts and pay them the same or more. It can be doable, seeing the amount of money Bezos amasses, right? I love the service but despise how the workers are treated. And nothing compares, there's no real competition.

My server is also unreachable: my website, my projects (which people use)... Because it's on some IP that Vercel uses.

This is great, but I see lots of ghosting and apparently low contrast. Sad to see no mention of it in the article.
