@mcc Once I get my GSM modem working I might just ditch the concept of a "phone" altogether :P Non-phone linux is a bit less of a Project in my experience. But then you can't run most phone apps I guess 🤷

Switching to Linux, an analogy 

@kianga reading this as someone that has never managed to run Windows for more than a few months and runs Linux ever since they started using computers (not counting macOS for a year) is very weird

I like, to use the same analogy, enter the apartment, spend the whole time trying to make the lights change to the precise color I want by hooking into its wiring and then giving up after a week of failure, installing like 20 locks on the door to make the landlord stop coming - after the previous 19 locks were broken, there's now a laser trap and a trap with hungry sharks and the landlord still somehow manages to get in

When I get tired of this and the electricity dying in the middle of me working or cooking and shutting down all of the lights and everything, spoiling the food in my fridge, I give up, blow the apartment up and move to my cozy cottage in the woods, which is currently resembling a Hello Neighbor house moreso than anything else, and some random thing collapses in an on itself every few days, and the breakers pop every month, but at least I can cook and work in peace. Mostly.

What's fun about making a web browser is I can add a TODO to have this feature 😄

If web browsers were good they'd add native options for sorting to tables instead of every website importing megabytes of JS each time.

Logged into twitter for the first time in at least a year and it was neat to see who was still posting regularly. Out of the hundreds of accounts I still followed only 4/5 posted this month, two were "popular" accounts that were now getting way less engagement, and others were folks that seem locked to specific communities (VR/Crypto)

Does anyone have a thermal receipt printer they particularly like?

I want to start printing little thermal-printed versions of my blog posts to staple in my journal. But I don't know much about what good brands are and the like?

I preferred the declarative nature of AppCache manifests over the code heavy Service Workers. Now we have yet another feature that cannot be used without JS. 🤷

Oh my god, Pied JUST WORKS!
I can't believe my ears! :psyduck:

I just installed Pied's flatpak package, let it install Piper, then downloaded the best English voice I could find ("Lessac", the basis for most other voices), and told Pied to set it as the Speech Dispatcher voice…

Now Orca sounds natural, and I can stand using it, for the first time in 20 years. :blobmiou:

Video below demonstrates reading this post.

@philip @thomasfuchs I agree wholeheartedly! I'm a major proponent of backwards compatibility and I wish businesses used more pressure to force all these big tech companies to have indefinite backwards compat instead of breaking things to reinvent the wheel yet again.

@rayckeith @thomasfuchs Big mood. Had a similar experience on Android recently. Like there's no good reason it should be so unstable.

Also why I like Linux. Don't gotta update nothing so long as it's running. >:P
