That’s the thing. Every big thing has been misidentified as a fad.

But also you don’t hear about that other 10 000 things that were called a fad and ended up being a fad.

Crypto might very well be a fad. At least only because of public misuse as an unregulated gambling market. It had potential to be great, but in my opinion, the in-between time of being a scammer’s paradise has killed it for the near future.

There is pretty much no way “AI” is a fad. It won’t replace everything, but integrating it into CAD tools, writing tools, and multimedia tools is pretty much inevitable.

Interesting, mine only autoconnects to the top 2 devices. It can be a bit frustrating if I want to connect to headphones and car and speaker in 1 day.

In any case, having an autoconnect option would be great.

Yep, I used to be on r/diyhotas and that was already a niche within the HOTAS niche within the simulator game niche 😂

I was looking at 3d Mousa alternatives a couple weeks back and see this one. This is definitely a super cool idea vs the “standerd” 3d mouse of encoder + joystick + hall sensor.

Wow, crazy how a simple nicely done gradient with well spaced text can look very pleaseing!

Hey, just to let you know, software raid nowadays is quite a bit better for home NAS that hardware raid. I would suggest using ZFS and zpools as a software raid.

If you are already past that point though. As far as sharing, if you are just using it as a small home server or NAS and want things simple, you could just use TrueNAS. It would make things much easier.

If you are running your main computer and sharing the files, I would suggest trying NFS instead of Samba. Samba shares are notoriously unreliable and buggy. Windows has NFS support for a while now for your other machines https://blog.netwrix.com/2022/11/18/mounting-nfs-client-windows/

Why would I want to hide the smart bar if it’s actually useful, quick and modern, unline AnySoftKeyboard…

Because it is literally not one of those things. It is almost a direct 1:1 copy of AnySoft’s utility menu except takes up an entire new row constsntly without ever hiding and is missing a few things tbat Anysoft has like split keyboard. Literally the only difference between the two besides missing features is pop-up vs persistant taking up 1-2 extra rows.

how about a modern and useful top bar that does many more things than the static AnySoftKeyboard’s?

Again, what feature that is more “modern and useful”? It is completely static except that it can be manually hidden until the next character is pressed. Why even have a hide button then?

How about good-looking password manager integration (and not AnySoftKeyboard’s aberration)?

Have you ever actually used AnySoftKeyboard? They are literally the exact same down to the shapeHere is proof. The only difference is that AnySoftKeyboard respects light keyboard choice where Florisboard simply doesn’t respect day/night switches for “follow theme” or “system time” and Florisboard does not work in Firefox where AnySoft does as we also see in my screenshots.

How about being able to separate layouts and languages?

That is pretty cool actually! It’s really a shame that there is only one keyboard layout and it is per-language standard layout of what florisboard devs “think is right”. Why can’t i have a choice of better or worse bottom rows and only get to have the worst in florisboard? Also, Anysoft has different layouts per language, just not “mix and match”

Clipboard support?

Anysoftkeyboard has that. https://github.com/AnySoftKeyboard/AnySoftKeyboard/issues/3450

Again, very interesting board and in the future it can be great! Just not yet for me personally yet. I don’t have a horse in the race, maybe the code is indeed much cleaner, better, and easier to maintain. Then it is definitely a much better future option!

It is just missing a bunch of features and advertising on a platform on the basis of "better, more modern and more features is disingenuous at best. I have a problem with people spreading disinformation and BS marketing buzzwords with no.justification as their advertisement. That’s it.

And yet this was all done by the “national Retain Federation”.

Literally complain, yell, cry, and fire people because of unions and yet they are in a corporate Union themselves.

Unions work.

I just tried it for a few days. Using it right now. I think in 2-3 years it sill be a pretty functional keyboard for more than monolingual people.

It’s super uncustomizable now and not very functional (for me) right now.

• There are open bugs because there literally no autocorrect (well one bug was closed but people aho use the beta release say that it still doesn’t work. This makes it take 2-3 fimes longer to type anything without tons of mistakes.

• Haptic feedback only works if you force ignore system settings even when system vibration is on

• no option to split up punctuation between comma and period so you have to search throufh a giant menu much more slowly

• no keyboard layout options

• “smartbar” auto hide (when enabled) simply never ever hides

• spacebar swiping quickly doesn’t act reasonably. It pushes you 6-7 characters into the new paragraph

Your critique about AnySoftKeyboard is weird because people don’t realize how wrong it is because it doesn’t happen to them. You just have to hold and release for the symbol. You can slide left or right and definitely do not have to have your finger on the symbol to select it. It is likely there is a bug on your system.

I’m interested in knowing what is “more modern, well functioning, and organized” about it if AnySoftKeyboard has more features, better language support, modern autocorrect and word fill, can have the exact same layout and 10 other layoits, and is more customizable.

Still haven’t found a person who can list a feature that florisboadd has that AnySoftKeyboard doesn’t, even thouvh multiple people have said “it has more features”

Turns out, all of the worst destroyers of our environment and humans all knew exactly what they were doing and went ahead anyway. Exxon had internal documents leaked, 3M, shell, gas industry giants, and then there are probably dozens more whose old internal documents haven’t been leaked.

0 consequences at all.

There were no regulations on any of this, this was “the free market.” Companies will wilfully destroy the environment, technology to fix their failings, and literally humans themselves for more quarterly profit.

Well this article is pretty disingenuous…

1. The distribution “managed by a single person” depends on hundreds of people working on different sofware to keep up. It’s not “one person doing better than the thousands of Microsoft employees combined” implication they are pushing

2. Windows 11 beat the linux distros by up to 20% in 1% lows which are argued as much more important by most tech reviewers. It wasn’t consistant at all which means that there was a giant margin of error.

I love linux and linux gaming has gotten radically better, but I am tired of tech “journalism” literally just cherrypicking, misleading, clickbait trash.

Nice! I have actually never used Windows 3D builder. Does the print have another edge that attaches to it? Or is it just a screenshot perspective thing where it looks like it doesn’t curve around the phone on one side?

What about the many that say something like 7(0). Maybe it is connected peers (non connected peers)?

That is actually a great metaphore. I always just used:

It’s like me not wanting to use google photos because they scan your photos to train algorithms vs my mom not wanting to use google photos because she is afraid all of her photos will get deleted.

Hahaha likely not. The higher up weight you go, the less accurate it is. A load cell that can handle 200KG would likely not be “per kilo” accurate

Load cell would probably work fine.

Personal possession of up to 5 grams and/or 5 cannabis plants is decriminalized for the general public, but it is still illegal. Sale by licensed shops is legal.

Belgium is similar, up to 3g decriminalized, but no sale is allowed, unlike the Netherlands, so Belgians legally have to go to the Netherlands to get weed. Great for the local Belgian economy 😂

Yeah I also paid for it.

I would rather let the project die than my data being sold out to a gang of parasites like it has been

Props for pulling the sources!

Though the other commenter saying “that sounds like it is made up” is definitely not presenting an opinion as fact, it is challenging that you presented your opinion as fact (in the uninformed person’s eyes) with no sources to back it up (in your original comment). But then you came with proof afterwards that it has indeed been studied and is a fact.

That does not mean that he was “stating his sexist stereotype as fact”.

If I said:

“Multiple studies have shown that the majority of people think the earth is flat”

with no sources.

Then anyone would be very reasonable to say “that sounds like you are making it up” (which in this case is true).

This is definitely a meme for AntiqueMemesRoadshow lol
