This walk was anything but simple...

Joplin as well, syching my 3 devices with the WebDAV option. I checked a few other options about a year ago and Joplin seemed the best.

Sloths have either 2 or 3 fingers on the forelimb depending on species 😅

A mid-late 24th century Starfleet runabout?

I've heard this trope before but I'm skeptic. I'm not a C expert but I can't believe memory bugs in that language are so much more benign than in C++.

Came here to say that!

Digital for sure. Who has room for physical books? The physical books that I've somehow gathered over the years are the worst items I have in terms of volume (or mass) relative to their utility.

Piper is my choice. Very easy to use from the command line, fairly good sounding voices. Prior to that, for years (decades?) I used espeak-ng, had a very robotic voice but articulated almost everything very clearly, and I got used to it so didn't actually mind.

It's not even called incognito in FF.

They never met IIRC. Gollum was already inside Moria when the Fellowship entered from Durin's Gate.

To containerize desktop apps I prefer Apptainer/Singularity, that's pretty portable, usersapce, and requires less tinkering to integrate with the system than Docker. I use it for Zoom and other closed source crap. AppImage is probably the more standard solution for that that's very similar technologically, but I'm already familiar with Apptainer from work.

I recently tried Ubuntu after many years, needed Docker and it told me to install it as a Snap, I thought, OK, whatever. I'm anything but a newbie, but for the life of me I couldn't figure out where the volumes were actually kept. That was the primary reason to abandon this experiment.

Kimchi and cheese is a surprisingly good combo. I especially like kimchi with chijeu tteokbokki, which are cheese-filled Korean rice cake.

I'm very happy with self-hosted Vaultwarden.

BJ almost certainly stands for Beijing here (although the company is apparently Qingdao-based). You see it a lot in China, including very oblivious "I ❤️ BJ" T-shirts worn by old ladies.

Nothing wrong with that... Most people don't need to reinvent the wheel, and choosing a filename extension meaningful to the particular use case is better then leaving it as .zip or .db or whatever.

Same, with Pixel 4A. But now that the Pixel line has abandoned the 3.5mm jack I will look elsewhere for my next phone and ROM.

🤣

Baikal is lean and great. I use it and sync to my Thunderbird (using the TbSync extension) and Android phone (using DAVx⁵).

Agree about Joplin. No need for a full NextCloud instance, I use the WebDAV option which Apache has pretty much out of the box.
