Looks like #HogwartsLegacy works well on last gen consoles. I’m not saying I didn’t expect it, but it’s nice to see when €€€ game developers take time to polish a product BEFORE release. #Gaming#VideoGames
This is a good post. This post gives rice purity test truly quality information. I’m definitely going to look into it. Really very useful tips are provided here. Thank you so much. Keep up the good works.
@anders@LoryGallante You could be so much luckier if you would invest your rice into my crypto! You can get rich fast! Or Faster! Light, I mean, so fast that you will be rich faster than a cezium atom finishes its resonance cycle! And you only need a meager $9999.95 investment! And you will be bazillionaire! #truestory

The strength of the Lancashire books is the sense of place and the way that they treat the landscape. Gilbert Woolfall has inherited his uncle's fell land house. Then there's a fire that destroys the study and kills the housekeeper. Throw in some sheep rustling and there's a lot to try and sort out. It's not just purely picturesque, there are issues of trying to get started in farming in the fells and the fate of the elderly in a rural environment. #books@bookstodon
So Google is now preventing people from removing location data from photos taken with Pixel phones.
Remember when Google's corporate motto was "don't be evil?"
Obviously, accurate location data on photos is more useful to a data mining operation like Google.
From Google: "Important: You can only update or remove estimated locations. If the location of a photo or video was automatically added by your camera, you can't edit or remove the location."
@ajsadauskas@technology@pluralistic Google claims a religious exemption that trumps your privacy concerns: "The data from your camera is sacred to us and our business model, and we, via our operating systems and applications, strictly forbid you from profaning that data."
"Actual happiness always looks pretty squalid in comparison with the overcompensations for misery. And, of course, stability isn’t nearly so spectacular as instability. And being contented has none of the glamour of a good fight against misfortune, none of the picturesqueness of a struggle with temptation, or a fatal overthrow by passion or doubt. Happiness is never grand.”
And not sff, but these are my favorite regular sapphic romances that I listened to last year. One per author because these are all authors where I’m going to be reading everything wlw they’ve written. 🌈📚 #LesbianBooks@sapphicbooks
I’ve maintained a branch of the old micro-emacs (not GNU emacs) for decades. And by “maintained” I really mean “mostly kept working”. It’s a scrappy little editor from the eighties(!) and the “s” in scrappy is silent.
The version I have grown accustomed to isn’t even the most recent version of microemacs, it’s a offshoot from uemacs 3.9 that was maintained by Petri Kutvonen at Helsinki University because it was portable and supported DOS, VAX/VMS and Unix.
Over the decades, I’ve “enhached” that thing to actually mostly understand UTF-8, and increased some internal limits, but it’s mostly the same thing that I used in the early nineties.
Anyway.
I don’t love the fact that it’s a very limited text editor. I’d like syntax highlighting etc. But my fingers are absolutely hardcoded to it, and I am not in the least interested in something that makes me switch away from those (much less start using a mouse to move around etc).
Which is just a very long way to say: “Does anybody know of some slightly more modern GUI editor that actually has good support for really changing keybindings”.
And I mean really configurable. As in “I can make ESC-J auto-justify text, and ESC-Z be ‘exit-and-save, and ^X^C will exit without saving”. Not some half-way state where “sure, you can make ^X exit, but no, you can’t make ^X or ESC act as Alt / Meta keys for other keys?
And yes, I know one answer is “teach your fingers new ways”. But my micro-emacs works just fine, and so it really isn’t worth it to me.
And please - don’t even bother replying with “Xyz is a great editor” unless you know and can show exactly how to rebind a key sequence like that ^X^C. I don’t use nearly all the uemacs keybindings, but I use an odd set of them.
I’d rather maintain just a keybinding file than a whole scrappy editor.
Edit: clearly I should have specified that I’m not interested in yet another “runs in a terminal” editor, or some even older editor (ie “real” emacs, or vim) that just has had more lipstick applied over the years.
Bump: Two GUI editors come to mind: Tea and Geany.
I think TEA is about as close to your wish as you are going to get. TEA will likely do 95% of your wishes except exit+save and ESC key in sequences. It is hackable and readable Qt/C++ so you can patch and push with ease.
"TEA is a C++, Qt(4,5,6) text editor with the hundreds of features for Linux, *BSD, Mac, Windows, OS/2 and Haiku."
TEA text editor has endless configuration options including all the key mappings that allows custom setting of everything in the KEYBOARD tab as shown in the screenshot. Please note that the quirky monspace font is not the default TEA setting but from my own custom QT settings. You can apply any font you wish to the interface.
If you want to modify hotkeys via source code you would use Qt::QAction in tea.cpp in the repo. I'm not a Qt/C++ programmer but the source syntax is obvious and I have hacked other Qt interfaces to my liking with no problems.
One rough edge I found is that if the application is already open, passing a file via command line will not open it. I could not find any other UX bugs in it.
There is also sublime text which allows configuring the keybindings in .json files It also allows ESC > command bindings. The user can put custom context and args in the binding actions.
