Dang... Thanks for the reminder about Milkytracker. I gotta dig into that... Also, I'm fine with that top GUI as well, haha! Unclear boundaries are visually tricky to me, too.

my idea of a good GUI

Examples?

Edit: I seek a server-less solution.

The only thing I can see is Linwood Flow but it looks like it's a really, really long way off before becoming a primary calendar app.

If it could just store all calendar content in 1 local file, then that could be so easily auto-synced across devices with !syncthing@programming.dev. Does anyone have any leads?

Hmm, I just now learned about Fruux, in this Reddit post...

Skill-driven games require major dedication. Why would @rumschlumpel@feddit.org care to suffer through Silksong, not knowing what to do or where to go, getting frustrated by having to memorize enemy moves, etc. when there are experts out there who have already discovered everything and the most efficient takedown methods (or other amateurs who don't find it as painful to explore so)? I see nothing wrong with this.

I used to be a huge gamer but frankly I find tinkering with Syncthing and Espanso perhaps even more fun than playing tough games, and watching NC (no-commentary) playthroughs by people who have already tested everything, etc.

In the formatting strip with bold, italics, etc., there is a troll face on the right that has never done anything when touched; I'm using v1.71.3 (288) on an S23 running Android 15 and One UI 7.0.

I'm trying to report this company-promoting spam but the loading wheel never seems to pass a report through. I've tried it on other instances as well, equally unsuccessfully. I thought several versions ago, reports submitted with no problem.

I had no idea that this post even had a URL and thought there was only the embedded video. I thought Summit showed article links freely. What's going on? S23 on Android 15 running One UI 7.0.

I'm sad to say that I wouldn't bet on it...

I don't suppose there's a solution to it. I use https://search.trom.tf/ which cycles through a list of SearXNG instances, but some of them retrieve results that literally look like they belong to another query. Has anyone else experienced this?

The real-time chess of the different character classes in Bad North is truly incredible. I love how height makes a real advantage (or disadvantage if too close!) for archers' physics-driven arrows, all the details (despite being a minimalist game) like arrows getting stuck in targets' shields, your choices in what weapon specialties you can assign, the fluid and organic character movement and fighting, etc.

You also really come to care about your soldiers' survival since the death of squad leaders is (typically) permanent, so loss is extremely emotional, especially given how they're customizable with different items. And—like the world's greatest jigsaw puzzler, Glass Masquerade—almost any screenshot from the game could be made into a wallpaper, so that's awesome.

For those who have never played this game, it was just on sale at GreenManGaming for <$3 (IsThereAnyDeal rocks!). It was also given away via Epic Games some years ago, which is how I've been revisiting it.

I had tried this back when it first went free and now wanna tout it here; Forgetful Dictator is the solidest piece of edutainment I've ever seen about country & capital learning/memorization. It's funny, smartly designed, and truly rewarding by teaching players more about all (known) human societies across our planet. I think everyone should give it a try, especially since it has many difficulty levels, from complete beginners to memory masters.

Version 1.67.4, code 276 (it would be nice if press-holding this in the settings would copy this info to the clipboard, by the way)

  1. See this comment
  2. Reply to it
  3. My comment appears with the rest of the top-level comments with no color banner spanning the left side, and not directly under the target comment
  4. Retry steps 2-3, twice, with no change
  5. Delete comments and finally refresh the whole thing and then see them get reorganized and receive color banners

Wut. This has never happened before.

My current script successfully deletes the first character in a string, unless that character is a newline (`n). Even trying to put m in front of (?) to attempt to make it multiline changes nothing:

Contents := RegExReplace(Contents, '(?)^.{0,1}')

Suppose the variable Contents is:

123
456

It'll delete 1, then 2, then 3 (if you call it 3 times), but then it will never make it past the line break and get stuck and won't reach 456. Any help would be appreciated! I'm a Regex newb, but I'm not glued to Regex by any means and would be happy to use any other function to be able to do this. I'm just hopefully trying to do it all in one line, though I will use two lines if it comes down to it.

Vivaldi isn't even fully open-source anyway, so it's worth leaving regardless.

and get over my attraction to men

This wording stuck out as alarming. Do you see anything concerning about this as a motivation to try this, regardless of age?

ik he doesn't care about consent

That's it. That's all your post needed to include. Literally everything else is unnecessary. Your history with your ex is irrelevant to this critical factor.

This is the only piece of information that matters, and it screams, "Hell, no." This man shouldn't exist in your romantic space.

Fight the loneliness by working hard over a year to build platonic friendships with groups of people. And then you'll be able to reenter the arena of romance with a level head, unclouded. Don't let loneliness cave your standards down. That almost never leads to anything lasting and satisfactory. I'm sorry for the pain you're going through but the guy you say you're considering will only severely worsen things, based on your descriptions.
