Any good FOSS weekly planners / calendars you'd recommend?
  • In general, I agree with the sentiment - at the same time, I think the idea behind Nextcloud is to cover more use-cases at once and serve as some kind of a "extensible platform"... and honestly, it does that quite well

  • Earbud recommendations
  • I am using the Sennheiser True wireless 3's right now and I love them. They have noise reduction mode, sound great, are ipx-something resistant (sweat for sure, light rain) and fit snuggly (for me)

  • GNOME Devs Are Working on a New Window Management System
  • I really enjoy how GNOME handles windows currently already.

    Between having the ability to move and resize windows with Super + (mouse left|right), switching between windows of the same application with Super + backtick, workspaces and Super + type to search, there is very little to desire.

    Unlike tiling VMs, this makes sense out of the box for 99% of the apps out there while providing a really quick way to get where you need quickly.

  • Do e-cigarettes actually work?
  • I am currently using e-cigarettes as a former smoker

    I would say:

    • if you aren't smoking already, there isn't really a good reason to start
    • if you are smoking and sort of kind of want to continue, e-cigarettes are most likely healthier than analog
    • if you are smoking analog and want to quit, there are better ways to quit for sure - I don't feel like committing to quitting just yet, however when I do feel committed, I will go with the tips outlined towards the end of the Huberman Lab - Nicotine’s Effects on the Brain & Body & How to Quit Smoking or Vaping podcast

  • reminding me about I nearly got suspended because I showed my Health teacher how you could bypass our school’s firewall and buy drugs on a school computer

    It's such a rejected behavior to even consider suspending you for this.

    Anyway, yeah, I agree. I think if one has interest in the inner workings of a computer system, just trying to make Linux do whatever you want it to do is a good way to experience that. You will, over time, without knowing, accumulate so much information just by troubleshooting things that don't work for one reason or another

  • What do you think it would take for people to leave GitHub?
  • I think that's kind of the benefit of Git repositories in general; you really don't have to do much to start contributing on any platform, really - just sign up, fork, git clone and MR (for most of them except sourcehut, really, where you use mail to send your patches in)

    The barrier of entry for people that are already comfortable with Github and git in general is basically nonexistent on any of these platforms - which is a plus

  • What do you use for Dark Mode?
  • Downvote target comment, however light mode has been studied to be clearly superior to dark mode - so I just use that

    Benefit of that is that there are very few websites that have only dark mode available, while most content that has the dark mode option looks more consistent with only white mode on
