It would have. Roundcube existed at roughly the same time, had a better UI, and was clearly licensed, and still went nowhere

Wish proton would focus on fixing some of the issues with their mail system in 2026. The fact that some issues have been open for years, with no movement, while they launch crap like an AI assistant, is disappointing

After I beat it, I was sad that it was over. One of the most engaging little games I've played in a long time

It and atomfall were amazing

Something that consistently makes bad choices with little more than random probability? You don't say

I kind of wish they'd called em steam engines

I built a 3D printed ereader stand that has a RAM mount ball on the other side.

Right now it's sitting atop a manfrotto monopod between my bed and side table. Eventually want to mount it on the wall, but the monopod has worked well enough I don't see too much need to change things up.

With a cheap Bluetooth tiktok ring remote bought online, I've had a very enjoyable reading experience in bed, and if I drift off there's no worry about the device

Boox's Neoreader is surprisingly good, but KoReader just frog blasts it. And since it's just and Android app, it's trivial to install and keep updated

Free cellular for life, except Amazon has basically limited it down to nothing

I loved my oasis, but the whispersync was, for all intents, busted, for the last few years.

Finally moved to a boox go color, installed calibre, and couldn't be happier

Check out standard ebooks. They take public domain books and "clean" them up with really good typesetting, spelling fixes, and other things. All free too

Boox Go 7 Color II

Install KoReader on it (it runs Android so it's literally just installing a new app) and you've got the best reading experience out there

Bullshit

Funko pops. Lego. Star wars. Marvel

If you can swing it. I really like bun for more traditional node stuff, because it has a ton of goodies built in, like a bundler

Djot is a markdown alternative, created by John MacFarlane, creator of Pandoc and spec author of CommonMark. It aims to fix many of the little issues Markdown has, and does a pretty good job of it, imo.

I hereby officially announce the Elixir type system effort is transitioning from research into development: https://elixir-lang.org/blog/2023/06/22/type-system-updates-research-dev/

A huge thank you to Fresha and Starfish for sponsoring this new stage. They are also hiring:

 

ExUnit is wonderful, and the functional paradigms that underpin Elixir let us write extremely complex tests in a fraction of the code that would be needed in OOP testing frameworks like RSpec.

But it's not all wine and roses. Tests can quickly accrue tons of boilerplate and repetition.

Using some Elixir features, you can cut down on these, and make tests even nicer to write.
