That Hindeous Strength by C.S. Lewis. I'm almost done but the end is stretching. Really weird book but also enjoyable.

Honestly, why is this stuff always done with windows? Wouldn't a minimal linux distro save some costs and headaches? Is there a legitimate reason? I feel like I'm missing something here

For more pythinic code, the considerate programmer will use the fact that 0 is falsy:
if x % 2: print("odd")

Gutenberg ist super, hat aber leider auch so manches schlecht formattiertes ebook. Bei standard ebooks gibt es qualitativ hochwertige Versionen. Allerdings nur englische.

I don't know how many normal sites even have a problem with Firefox. I guess only some small, niche web apps, but otherwise most people would see no difference. Even if developers don't explicitly test on Firefox, almost all features will still just work (at least for normie usage). Power users might encounter some challenges, as the post describes.
I use Firefox btw. (not Arch though)

The atmosphere really sounds amazing. I've never been to Ireland, but if get the opertinity it would be cool to walk through the city on Bloomsday.
I read Ulysses once and not even scratched the surface, but the geography sounds like a interesting topic to dive into. A companion book could be useful, but I guess it would also take a lot more time to get through the read.
If the quotation marks are a stylistic choice than so be it. Makes it harder to read though. The last chapter is missing any kind of punctuation as far as I know, so that has to be a wild ride

I proudly announce that today is Bloomsday! Have you ever tried to read Ulysses, or why do you shy away from it? Any hardcore James Joyce enjoyer in this community? I'll share my story with Ulysses: I have to shamefully admit I never read the original, but only the German translation, which is of course not the Irish experience that Ulysses should be. The next cardinal sin I must confess is that I did not quite *read* Ulysses but listened to the audiobook. The narrators were great and carried me through without getting bored. I want to read some parts in the original language, and can't quite decide which ones. I have an e-book version from gutenberg, but the quotation marks are missing, which makes me wish that standard ebooks would make an edition. What are your favorite chapters? I quite like the part with the news articles. It's funny, different, and the narrators of my audiobook did an especially good job with that chapter.

„verpflichtende Erklärung und Kennzeichnung zum CO2-Fußabdruck für Traktionsbatterien, Batterien für leichte Verkehrsmittel wie elektrische Roller und Fahrräder und wiederaufladbare Industriebatterien mit einer Kapazität von mehr als 2 kWh“ und ein „digitaler Batteriepass“

Duckduckgo. I stpped using google for the privacy stuff but I stayed because of the language switch.
I don't know if I tweaked a setting to achieve it, but I have a language switch below the search bar. Google always showed me german results when searching for something english and the other wy around, so I love this feature. Search results are good enough for me, so duckduckgo it is.

Die EU ist was das Internet angeht schon etwas ambivalent: Legt großen Wert auf Datenschutz, zwingt Social Media gemeldete Post etc. zu moderieren, aber das alles gilt dann nicht für den Staat. Lieber eine Hintertüre, die potenziell auch von böswilligen Akteuren verwendet werden kann, als dass die Polizei im Zweifelsfall nicht sicher sagen kann, ob ich auch ja meiner Mama zum Geburtstag gratuliert habe.

Das wäre doch etwas!
Natürlich drängen sich da einem gleich wieder alle möglichen skeptischen Gedanken auf, wie ob das ein Fahr-doch-Porsche Minister über schafft und dass selbst die Strecke Karlsruhe-Paris 9h und 5 Umstiege in vollgestopften, altersschwachen Nahverkehrszügen wären (wie halt in Deutschland auch). Aber träumen dürfen wir trotzdem, von einem Kurzbesuch mit dem Regio nach Straßburg zum Einkaufen. Vielleicht sogar von einem Europa mit gut finanzierter Schiene, in der keine Binnenflüge notwendig sind; keinem Deutschlandtakt, sondern Europatakt.

When I first switched to linux, the only reason I didn’t give up was because I couldn’t figure out how to burn windows onto a flash drive from a Linux machine.
Okay, that is hilarious
Es gibt viele Leser, die dokumentieren, was sie so gelesen haben und ich frage mal die Community, was ihr da so macht. Benutzt ihr Goodreads, LovelyBooks oder gar Bookwyrm (die föderierte Variante)? Reicht eine Exceltabelle oder gar eine handschriftliche Liste? Außerdem gibt es noch zahlreiche Möglichkeiten, Rezensionen zu verfassen, wie eben auf Goodreads. Braucht ihr das, um mit einem Buch abzuschließen? Nur, wenn das Buch schlecht war?

I guess most non-technical people are always fighting their computer. It is really hard to watch my grandma do anything on any device, but she's managing windows pretty well compared to her android phone (with accessibility settings), because she has used it the longest. Even the tech-savvy Windows users are probably used to some windows quirks and work around them, just like GNU/Linux users open a terminal as a reflex. And if anything is different, it will always feel like fighting your OS. I think the problem is the change, not the OS

Never ever. I don't know why, but I just can't stand the idea of writing in my books. I don't care if its spine is broken or the book is otherwise damaged, the inside must be clean and untouched.
But I tolerate you all, as long as you don't underline stuff in mine when I lend them to you
