It doesn’t do anything by default, you have to go to settings > zen mods > click the settings icon next to the mod name.

If you set the options and nothing happened then I’m not sure, it worked for me instantly when toggling stuff off.

I’ve started using more Zen Mods recently too, the most important one I would say is Zen Context Menu - which lets you de-clutter the options when you right click anything. There are way too many options being shown when you right clicked the sidebar, but it’s a lot nicer to use now.

but every job also says 100+ applicants

Most of them are spam or people testing their luck even though they’re underqualified since applying to jobs is usually just a click nowadays. Don’t worry too much about it.

I get people that make tutorials for “content” even if they suck at their job, but I CANNOT get over video tutorials where someone gets completely lost and doesn’t cut it out of the video.

Anyways we’ll go here-oh there’s an error. Uhm. Maybe we can do this? That didn’t work. Maybe that? Hang on, maybe it’s in preferences? Oh, it’s in tools, no, wait, oh I just wrote the name wrong

Would it kill you to edit that out and stop wasting my time?!

I wonder if they’re going to change the name to include a K in it like their other apps? Kanimator has a good ring to it.

I use Joplin. It’s fairly simple and very comparable to Evernote if you’ve ever used that, but it’s perfect for my needs.

I used LogSeq before, it’s very similar to Obsidian, the big difference being that it’s open source. It’s got a ton of features and the built-in whiteboard is actually really good, but I found it a bit overkill for my simple note taking.

• Logseq also makes each line start with a bulleted list which quickly made me go insane

Electron isn’t here to compete with anyone. It’s a free open source community effort filling a gap. If you want to defeat Electron, you will need to fill it too; and you will need to do a better job than Electron is doing today — at the things that allow us to deliver a good experience.

I think that’s the big takeaway, people like hating Electron (like yours truly), but if you want Electron to stop being so common there needs to be an alternative that’s as powerful and flexible. Nobody wants to make that. Electron works, it’s stable, it’s industry standard, it’s not performant but it performs well enough, and you can’t beat web browsers in having a massive ecosystem where everything just works.

Tauri tried to be the Electron killer but it became apparent that OS-specific web-views aren’t something developers want to deal with, and IIRC they’re also looking into embedding a browser runtime which will make it more or less Electron again…

I appreciate the rundown! I started getting used to Emmet now, it’s certainly more friendly than it looks. I think this is what I was looking for.

The short-hand for CSS in Emmet is also pretty neat, but It’ll take some time to get used to it. w75p m10 turns into width: 75%; margin:10px

I don’t think so, it’ll just remove the bad results and you’ll have to click next page yourself. Technology has its limits.

I think both of them would have a way to filter domains if you’re self-hosting. The blocklist uses simple regex so you can probably copy-paste the blocklist straight into your filters.

I also bought a PSTV when they were on clearance for less than 20 bucks, makes for a nice little gaming console for the bedroom or guest bathroom.

The… Guest bathroom???

I owned a PSP Go a few years ago, it’s a great device. I loved how tiny it is, but the screen was a little too small for me, and it didn’t handle emulation that well. Loved playing Lumines and Patapon on it, though!

I agree, it’s about the perfect size for me. Just small enough to fit in my jacket pocket.

I honestly wish PC handhelds had a similar size, but they’re all tablet-size. Someone had an image comparing the Vita with the Steam Deck and it puts into perspective how large handhelds have gotten.

These websites are really bad, I really don’t understand why many of these websites that invite people to Linux fail to understand the user that would browse something like this. It straight up links to the GNU website to browse distros and software, which by the way, isn’t loading as of writing this comment.

This entire website talks about ditching Windows without an obvious call to action. Windows is bad, yes, but giving people a list of every distro under the sun and saying “good luck” won’t convince anyone to switch. Give obvious beginner recommendations. Tell people to install Linux Mint, and a beginner-friendly guide on HOW, and why Linux is good rather than just convincing everybody to stay on Windows 10.

this is actually a plot point in the graphic novel Eight Billion Genies, where people would make a wish by reading a really long contract for hours that covers all the possibilities and caveats. You’d enjoy it, OP.

that assumes you know exactly what you want though, which I think most people wouldn’t at the time of making the wish

I’ve been meaning to post some of my stuff to Flatpak when Godot 4.4 releases but never bothered to look into it. This is perfect, thanks for sharing!

OpenOffice is ancient and isn’t really being developed anymore. It’s in maintenance mode and hasn’t gotten a real update in over a decade from what I can tell. Libreoffice trumps it in every way.

That said, I prefer OnlyOffice these days. It’s a lot slower unfortunately (running on electron…) but it’s much closer to MS office and has better document compatibility.

Also WASM can’t directly manipulate the DOM so it can’t really be used for handling HTML/CSS, all front-end stuff still has to be done with JS.

Right now. WASM has been supported by every browser for a while now, and most webapps are made with WASM. That said, it’s not a replacement for Javascript, most people only use it on things that need to be high performance like heavier apps and web games. Nobody really makes websites that rely on WebAssembly instead of JS to my knowledge.
