I happily use Helix for Rust, etc projects, and as a general editor. I switch back to VSCode for TypeScript/Svelte projects because the plugins make it more productive for me. I do miss the editing experience and need to check if there's a VSCode plugin that lets me not confuse my muscle memory.

Helix was the thing that finally made me remap my caps lock key to esc.

I just had mine arrive yesterday!

I have one of these

I'm using ch57x-keyboard-tool to configure it, because I don't fancy running some random closed-source Chinese code (the manual links to a file on Google Drive). It also means I can move over my config when I switch to Linux.

I have two keys for switching between headphones and speakers, and some set up for shortcuts I forget (like ctrl-shift-e for the network monitor in Firefox). One key types "hello" just because I can.

I've got the large knob controlling volume, and I can click it to toggle mute. The other two are currently set to scroll, but I don't need that as my mouse has better ergonomics for scrolling.

I still have plenty of unused keys and it's got three layers so I won't be running out in the foreseeable future.

This isn't a million miles from what bitcoin mining does, although in that case they're trying to find hashes that start with a lot of zeroes.

I just saw the top two thirds, and had to scroll to see the punchline and the comm - what a pleasant surprise! For me, it's the 3DO but that's too niche for most.

That doesn't work, though.

For a recursive acronym, you want something like ADFRA Didn't Forget Recursive Acronyms.

Yeah, worth a read; it’s fun.

Rating: 1.5/5

That rating doesn't seem to match the rest of the review.

That's me out then

This might even be an appropriate use for AI (maybe even running in-browser for privacy). I imagine something that reads your prompt and auto-populates a few rings to search. You review and edit the suggested rings, then click search.

I just went to look for answers this, since report-uri.com is killing its free tier, and the lowest paid is way higher than my usage justifies. What did you settle on?

I like the take that they have in that thread: Perforce is forking Puppet into a non-Open Source version (but they're keeping the name).

That's a six book series, if I remember rightly. I love Pratchett's stuff (Men at Arms is next on my Discworld reread) but I was thinking of his solo stuff. Normally I just start at the first published if I think I'll enjoy the whole lot.

I haven't read anything by him, where is a good place to start? Here?

Using leaf tea instead of bags means it's more forgiving of over brewing. I've always assumed it's because you have large pieces instead of the smaller bits plus dust you get in bags, but I have no idea really.

I assume Peta just wants to be in the news? The Sly Old Fox is not an offensive name.

That's the first argument they make in their petition.

Not funny, but interesting!
