I think if you want to copy a specific selection to a mouse-based, different program then it makes sense to use the mouse for precision selection.

"Bi(e)ber" is German for "Beaver"

For me personally, there is only two applications of LLMs in programming:

  • doing tasks I kinda know how to do, but don't want to properly learn (recent example: generate pgf plots from csv data in matplotlib. 90% boilerplate, I last had to do it 3 years ago and vaguely remember some pitfalls so can steer the LLM in that direction. Will probably never again have to do this, so not worth the extra couple hours to properly learn
  • things I would ordinarily write a script for, but aren't worth automating because they won't come up in the future again (example: convert this Lua table to a Nix set)

Essentially, one-off things that you know how to check for correctness.

Ah damn it -.-

Too bad, the app is really nice to use :/

It would be if it's a one-time payment, but it's a yearly subscription, and not a cheap one!

I don't think it's unreasonable to want to be paid, but a mandatory subscription when using the most common install method does irk me the wrong way

Just tried it, and it seems you can't edit or add items without a premium subscription??

Or am I missing something?

Edit: Apparently only when installing via the Play Store. Very weird decision.

Ahh those fuckers.

Does anyone have experience with keyguard? From a cursory glance, this + vaultwarden seems like a good alternative...

Especially if you buy access via 2 providers on different backbones. Haven't had a single failed/incomplete download since.

I'm slightly younger than that even, currently finishing up my master's but have been working as a backend dev for a couple of years.

I've learned an order of magnitude more about networking from just being in the vicinity of my girlfriend (who is a network technician) than from uni, and it's definitely already paying off.

+1 from me.

The Shield is a couple years old, but it handles everything you throw at it perfectly.

  • get SmartTubeNext to watch YouTube without ads, and it comes with SponsorBlock
  • use Flauncher for a home screen / launcher without any ads
  • Jellyfin, obviously
  • Steamlink also works perfectly
  • plus, the remote is amazing (though I would recommend to either disable or rebind the Netflix button)
