Oh yeah, I used Joplin in the past. Although the goals are quite different from my idea. Joplin is a great recommendation as an alternative to Google Keep, but it's not real-time collaborative (or federated, for what it matters).

create drawings

Ah, I don't remember this option. Maybe it wasn't available when I tried it last time a few years ago. I guess that means Joplin is still being actively developed.

I would also look into collaborating with the people [...] Not sure if that will work, but it’s worth a shot if you’re interested

Oh! I just noticed that they have quite a few things besides Docs. I mean... I probably should. My goal is for something much smaller, I just want a replacement for Google Keep, and some day in the near future, SplitWise. Joplin sounds like a better candidate than Numerique.

Thanks for pushing to collaborate, I realize that would actually make more sense than starting a new project from scratch. Not without guilt, I have to admit that I code for fun, and I have more fun working on something that works exactly as I envision it rather than just joining another project. Someday I might learn how to make some real contributions to existing software, but I don't think this idea of making a simple replacement for Google Keep will be my trampoline to working this way. Still, thank you for trying to push me to do it!

Never happened in my life. Personally, if something breaks I just wait for it to get fixed.

I hope this doesn't ruin a magic moment, but... seems like this image might actually be incorrect. There's a more modern paper in the description of this video that analyses the data with a different approach and they get something that looks quite different.

In any case, one way or the other, we got the correct image of such blackhole now. Just it's not this one.

Keep in mind that non-hardenized containers only protect you from bugs, they don't protect you from sophisticated malware. If you suspect the software you are trying to run might be a virus, don't run it, or run it in a virtual machine.

I would recommend using containers only if you absolutely understand how to make them secure AND you have no reason to suspect the software you are running might contain nefarious code. In any other case use a virtual machine.

Also, for anyone who has Amazon Prime, these games are currently free. https://gaming.amazon.com/loot

Actually that might not have been done to deliberately disrupt your flow. Culling elements that are outside of the viewport is a technique used to reduce the amount of memory the browser consumes.

I would recommend checking out LosslessCut. Behind the curtain it runs ffmpeg, so you should be able to find the perfect command.

In the features list:

View ffmpeg last command log so you can modify and re-run modify recent commands on the command line

Be warned though, the hearth rate monitor doesn't work particularly well. And there is no sleep tracking afaik.

If you'd prefer something more reliable (but less open), GadgetBridge is an Android app to interface with commercial smart watches through reverse-engineered protocols.

You should install Rethink and see how much garbage your phone constantly transmits and receives. And this is not even a kernel-level firewall, so who knows how much data Google actually exfiltrates...

I don't know about a constant audio stream, nor about keywords, but I noticed that Google Keyboard sends out some data every time you type anything. It's not even that subtle.

I might be mistaken, but I think Codeberg is the official public Forgejo instance.

What is it that you don't like about Clevo chassis? I bought one a few years ago and I love it. It's elegant and sturdy in my opinion. It's also easily serviceable, so what's to complain about it?

As an Italian, I would say that's not the case, not "a lot of Italians are racist". I've had interactions with a few racist people of older generations, but I would say that they are the exception, thankfully.
