  • I’m the opposite of this picture. It’s like I have to relearn the game each time and fluid play takes a long time to return.

    Funnily enough my muscle memory persists to some degree though. So for instance if a particularly tough enemy is charging me I might push a specific key without actually knowing what it does. Afterwards I have to reason and rediscover what I was trying to accomplish and bind that action to the key I pressed.

    I much like Quod Libet. It has a clean, functional interface to manage your local music collection. Also support for Plugins is nice.

    You can create Boolean Logic filters like (played < 10 times AND genre = classical AND composer = Mozart) which I appreciate. And some of the included tools like being able to automatically create meta data tags from file names (for instance <artist> - <album> - <track>.mp3).

    It’s the best replacement for Music Bee (Windows only) that I’ve come across.

    Well, hieroglyphs aren’t just pictograms. Some are, but the bulk you can pronounce .If you were versed in the language you could read out aloud what’s on that slate just like you can read out aloud this comment. Try doing that with the wall of emojies.

    That being said, emojies do much enhance our communication potential 🥳.



  • Works as intended for me between my android phone and Kububtu PC however I deliberately turned it off for security reasons.

    ¿Why? Whenever I copy a password from my password manager on the PC it is shared to the Android phone and stored on the clip board there in plain unecrypted form. Since I also use a clip board manager app which remembers anything that is copied for later retrieval this means that if I were to lose my phone it would yield the finder with a long list of logins and passwords that I use.

    I could of course manually delete each password from the smart phone after logging in but it’s way too much of a hassle and I’m prone to simply forgetting it.

    By default KDE connect should simply not transfer copies made from password managers. It bypasses the whole security feature that password managers have which automatically clears the clipboard a short time after copying any password. Last I checked there were feature requests // bug reports on github arounc issue. But I’m not tech savvy enough to know whether there is a programmatic way to detect what kind of app the copy is originating from or whether we are stuck with the current way by design constraint.


  • There’s both practical and more spiritual/philosophical reasons for this.

    Before artificial light sources, especially electrical ones, moon light let people stay productive longer whilst outside. This was especially important for comunal activities like hunting, harvests or celebrations too. Keeping track of moon cycles is thus valuable for preparation in scheduling. And once you do that it can also be used to organize other social events around that. Similar to how our modern calendars and schedules are built around important fixed events.

    The moon and sun as celestial bodies also gained prominent religious and mystical significance in ancient cultures. Remember that people didn’t actually know what the moon or sun were in the modern scientific sense. But for some strange reason these mystical glowing disks on which people were so reliant kept rising with unerring synchronicity. The inquiry into the movements on the firmament lead many a civilization down the paths of observation, record keeping and math too.
