True. People with long commutes are more likely to quit.

It follows that if a proposed housing solution is over an hour from the jobs, it wouldn’t work well. But still a weird conclusion because I can’t recall anywhere that proposed building housing over an hour away from the jobs as a serious housing solution.

I just wanted to compliment you, you look like someone who enjoys unlimited snacks.

I set up a second dedicated cat cam for some meetings, pointed at the calming presence of a cat sleeping on my desk.

My reply guy did the same kind of redirection, pivoting to something like “typical dumb Linux user”.

Lol. I tried going on Twitter recently to respond to someone who commented on one of my blog posts, but was told I “clearly hadn’t read the article.” 😂 Good lesson to stop trying to engage over there.

There are so many toxic and fake accounts there now.

As stated in the Executive Order, this order applies only to federal agencies, which the President controls.

It is not a general US law, which are created by Congress.

There's a whole chapter in the book "The Sexual Politics of Meat" by Carol J. Adams devoted to analyzing this book from a feminist-vegetarian critical perspective.

Looks like someone posted some or all of that chapter online.

Suspenseful trailer without jump scares. Well done.

I want to have my cake and Medicaid too.

 

This poorly designed table on the AWS website appears to show that neither tier of their new AI agent "Q" offers "Peace of Mind".

Maybe the table was designed by AI, too? "PRICE", "FEATURES" and "PEACE OF MIND" are supposed to be understood as section headers, but the design doesn't work because they didn't also put "price" on its own row and they pointlessly used alternate-row background colors. They could have used background cell colors to communicate which rows were section headers.

Progress towards universal Copy/Paste shortcuts on Linux

 

Keyboards with custom firmware supports keycodes like XF86Copy and XF86Paste. These are great for having truly global copy/paste shortcuts that also work in apps like terminals where "Control-V" and "Control-C" aren't supported by default.

I advocated that these keycodes be supported in a web browser, Qutebrowser. The author of that project, Florian Bruhin liked the idea and submitted a patch upstream to the QT framework, which is used by many apps associated with the KDE Linux desktop. And about 5 years later, apps will be packaged with QT 6.10 that include the fix.

Here’s the change description.

This adds support for the Help, Open, Close, Save, New, Cut, Copy, Paste, Undo, Redo, Back, Forward, Refresh, ZoomIn, ZoomOut, Find, Settings, Exit, and Cancel keys to the default keyboard shortcuts.

The bug report:

https://bugreports.qt.io/plugins/servlet/mobile#issue/QTBUG-93269

 

It is reportedly plug-n-play for basic features, but for more advanced features, something like this project would need to be patched to add support for the camera.
