+1 for Joplin (https://joplinapp.org/) with Nextcloud / WebDAV for sync. I use the web clipper all the time.

New messages (under an hour I think) are highlighted yellow.

self-promotion caveat: I’m building my sudoku game to be offline and fully accessible: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=digital.cyberpuffin.sudoku

The only thing that might constitute an “ad” is a button on the main menu that leads to a promotion page for my print-on-demand book.

Not sure if I’m doing something wrong, have an incorrect setting, or if this is expected behavior, but the thing that’s been driving me nuts is when I go to share a link it always copies the source of the post for the lemmy link.

If, for example, I’m browsing on lemmy.ml and I want to share a post from lemmy.world, I’d like to be able to copy the lemmy.ml version of the lemmy.world post.

It doesn’t make as much sense with public instances, but when you’re using a private instance and you want to share with friends and family it can be kind of a hassle to retrieve the URL for said private instance.

In for a penny…

The move to a subscription model is the disservice and requires no particular savvy to differentiate from free.

Macs and Chromebooks are fine for some people and won’t require as much hand holding as a direct Linux install regardless of the distro.

People are going to rely on what others recommend when they don’t know themselves. It’s up to those people to cull the list from ten to two.

Is the person a budding tech that wants to hack on their system? Send them to Arch.

Are they a creative looking to craft? Throw them into Ubuntu Studios.

Maybe they’re grandparents who barely understand tech. Ok, Mint or Elementary are good options… Just maintain SSH access with keys.

The options are a strength.

Your money, spend it how you want. Me, I’ll eschew the bloated system designed to separate customers from their money in favor of the free and open source alternatives.

Different date format: day / month / year; as opposed to the US standard: month / day / year.

It’s a good rule of thumb, but Godot gives you enough rope to hang yourself with … at least until the next update 😀

If you need to pass information around to different scripts and/or scenes then you may wish to employ Singletons.

Some more context: Godot established the “Godot Development Fund” to accept donations directly (https://lemmy.ml/post/4815592).

You make valid points, however, I’d like to point out that most games on the play store don’t cost a lot because the real costly transactions are in-app purchases. It’s common, in my experience, for the popular free apps to have IAPs upwards of $100 for in-game currency.

There’s also that matter of the no-cost version of the app. It seems perfectly usable, making the ad-removal an optional purchase.

Considering the smaller user-base and the finite economic value of life-time purchases I’d say $20 is fair. But that’s my stated opinion and I have yet to put my money where my mouth is.

Another +1 for Joplin. Been using it for a while now. The web clipper is very handy too.

Sync FTW

I still use windirstat because I hadn’t heard of WizTree. How doe Winget compare to chocolatey (https://community.chocolatey.org/)?

* edit: Found a few articles that compare winget to chocolatey (1: Make use of, 2: techcybersec).

tl;dr: They’re both really good, but chocolatey is established with a lot more packages and better community support.

A million dollars in bitcoin, I’d walk away with a cool $100 after selling it all.

In truth, being in a central Florida town at 7 in the morning, I’d go on a shopping spree at some of the bigger box stores and stock up on electronics and building supplies, before I blew the rest on tools.

Absolutely agree that hiding knowledge behind a paywall is crappy. I hit that issue so many times with Red Hat that I standardized on debian variants.

Searching, while a function of any modern forum, is easily bypassed with a modern search engine / crawler. Unless the forum admin takes the unlikely step of disabling web crawlers on their site, you can pass the site:<website> filter into your search. For example: https://duckduckgo.com/?q=subtitles+site%3Aforum.jellyfin.org&ia=web shows forum posts regarding subtitles.
