I am greatly displeased at the smartphone industry. I think it's time for a heavy handed crackdown about all the spying they're doing. The smartphone industry and in particular the company qualcomm I find an intolerable company in their practice, I believe they should be smashed, their equiment liquidated and their intellectual property destroyed.

The smartphone industry is a festering cancer on general computing, a persistent and pernicious assault on human rights. An invasion of our private spaces. A colonization of our lives.

I think it is past the point of reform, not that there are any regulator with to intelligence figure out what is wrong let alone the wherewithal to do anything about.

For those reasons, I think global thermonuclear war is our only realistic option for setting back the clock on this travesty.

I am willing to hear your alternative, I don't believe anything short of that has a snowball's chance in hell to change anything about this.

I'm sorry this idea is kind of hard to explain. Like if you had a torrent, but every week or so you'd have new interesting stuff to discover from it ?

LIke a "torrent channel" but fully decentralized somehow ?

Maybe you'd just get more torrents to choose from. Large, searchable torrent archives, "this week's new torrents" ?

What about receiving news video, streams without a website to coordinate it, no gatekeeper except the digital signature of the strangers you trust ?

Like, why isn't facebook a torrent network ? Why isn't youtube, just torrents ? Facebook and youtube without having to ask Zuck and Goog for permission ?

So irritating, you find exactly the thread about your issue,

You ask for the answer, but they close it instead !!

So everyone else is going to end up here, with no voice, no way to even say "hey you jannie why you'd close are thread, do you have a learning disability" ?

How often do you end up mute in those top threads.

And they wonder why public forums are dying !

And by that I mean,

An http server that serves word-like rich formatted text documents and includes a web-based rich formatting text editor to write and edit these documents.

With some searching I found these might be candidates

Ghost
WriteFreely / Write.as
Plume

And maybe the following editors in some kind of standalone mode

TipTap
Editor.js
Quill.js
CKEditor 5
Slate.js

Oops, I clicked a random tab, now I can't find my previous tab.

Surely there is a keyboard shortcut to go back where I was ?

Note : I have 2185 tabs open in 21 windows

Hi,

I really miss the old version of the website "weatherspark" It had an absolutely fantastic weather dashboard.

It was a old google-finance-like graph that you could scroll, to zoom in and out to increase the timescale, or left to right to shift the date at the center of the graph.

The lines on the graph shows, current temperature, historical temperature and prediction temperature.

There were bands around the temperature that would indicate temperature averages and records for the date period on screen.

If there were precipitations, it would show as another line the amounts.

In that simple graph you could get the sense of the local weather, what it's been and what it will be, this week, this month or 25 years ago with just your mouse.

With all the weather data being collected by government and available on public APIs, is there any open source self-hosted software that has an effective interactive data visualization user interface as weather spark of old ?

Here is what it looked like, all in a single graph with NO pageloads !

I have heard the dismissal, I have been told I don't matter, I have been told I'm a edge case.

But I'm telling you wayland, I chafe at you taking away my optionality.

Sometimes I ~need~ that feature, and when I need it, I need it bad !

I understand that the IBM money pouring into wayland is super happy about the linux world losing network transparency for apps, stripping power users of their inconvenient toys.

But I'm telling you, I need it.

No, waypipe isn't it.

~~Also, no longer having distinct window managers from the compositor give me serious bad vibes but this isn't what this is about~~

I am looking for an open hardware PCB Ready to send files for oshpark, seedstudio or jlcpcb like places

A PCB with the following features

wired of an MCU supported by mainline QMK/ZMK/VIA and or VIAL correctly wired for bluetooth/2.4G and wired battery powered USB-C port surface mount diode and individually addressable LEDs

Has anyone ever made such an open hardware PCB ?

Last month I purchased a keyboard, it is physically very nice and has all the features I listed above, except it runs it's own unmodifiable proprietary firmware, so the whole thing is garbage.

Pity because physically this keyboard is everything I wanted

I need fine grained, automated cookie controls I have tried these addons

Cookie Manager Cookie Quick Manager Cookie AutoDelete

And the problem is always the same.

It is TOO DIFFICULT to only have one exception for one cookie in one account container

Creating containers for every single website is also extremely tedious and buggy.

And deleting all cookies all the time, means I am re-logging in into everything all the time, often a 5 to 10 step process not counting 2 factor and it is VERY annoying

Hi,

I've been searching for the right switches for a while now. And I have a box full of keyboards I don't like to prove it.

I found a keyboard I like but it's got the wrong switches on it.

I got a mathew yg108, that seems alright, though I have firmware trouble with it so far.

The keyboard came with switches as follows

Brown switch:Operating force:45g Pressure Force:55g
Operating Travel: 2.0mm Tactile Travel:1.2mm Total Travel:3.40±4.00mm

The tactile feels like almost nothing, almost like linear switches and while it's great for gaming, I like having way more resistance than that.

I know a keyboard that has the switches I like. It was a victsing pc315a

No idea what switches this uses but they have a lot more resistance at the activation point

Anyway, I tried my luck buying switches that looks like they might be like that

I got a set of outemu branded "orange" switches

here are the specs

I received them and installed one of them

original switch

new switch

new switch behind

switch hole

And after all this was said and done... I cannot tell the new switch apart from the other ones ! Feels exactly the same ?

Do I just need a stronger spring value ? I had a 45 or 55 gram switch Now it's almost 60 gram switch

How high to these values go ?

What is the next tactile standard switch force I can search for after 60g ?

What does the victsing keyboard use ?
