Forkyz let’s you download and solve crossword puzzles.
It comes with an inbuilt list of sources for different languages but you can also manually add new ones. Many newspapers publish crosswords daily or weekly for free so there’s plenty of options.
There are separate options for shuffling songs and categories (albums, artists, folders, genre, etc) and you can toggle them independently of each other.
It should be offered as an option really.
One caveat is that you need to think ahead about how much space you want to assign to each partition. You could end up with your /home/ partition being full while the system partition still has plenty. Or vice versa. You can manually readjust the boundaries but it requires some understanding and can’t be done on the fly by a non-technical user. By contrast if everything’s stored on the same partition you never have to worry about this.
You can, by the way, manually recreate this set up even after the initial set up although it will require lots of free space to shuffle around files (or some external storage to temporarily hold them). Basically what you do is create a new empty partition, copy all your /home/stuff there and then configure your system to always mount that partition as the /home/ directory when it boots. Files are just files after all and the operating system doesn’t really care where they come from as long as the content is correct. Once you got it working you can delete the originals and free up the space to be used otherwise.
Typically your personal files and app settings are stored somewhere in your user home folder, eg under /home/bob/. Ideally you’ve set up your system in a way so that the entire /home/ folder is stored on its own disk or partition at least. That let’s you boot up a different distro while using the same home directory. But even if you haven’t set it up separately from the rest of the system, you can still manually copy all those files.
Not every single application setting is transferable between distros as they sometimes use different versions but generally it works well. Many apps also let you manually export profiles or settings and reimport them elsewhere later. Or they have online synchronization baked in.
Aww, too bad. I really rely on autocorrection suggestions a lot as it speeds up my typing.
different dictionaries but merged into one.
many keyboards handle it like this: if you switch to English keyboard layout, you get English autocomplete, if you switch to chzech layout you get suggestions for chzech words, etc
what I want is to be able to pick any layout and get suggested words from English, Czech and whatever other languages I select.
In my recent experience Google still delivers better results for tech troubleshooting queries. “linux drivers for acer e15 card reader” at least points me to some semi-relevant pages on Google that could lead to a solution or more ideas where to look while ddg throws a lot of generic stuff that is only faintly related.
It’s GNU GPL v3 according to their page on f-Droid.
Librera Reader is a PDF // ebook reader for Android. It has a very smooth user experience and useful options. I used to have 5 or so different PDF readers installed and would pick and choose according to the task at hand but now I’m down to just 1.
¿Does Gimp on Windows finally use the same interface as the Linux version? But either way while I have learned to use Gimp over time and appreciate it the interface certainly has rough edges. For me that’s particularly noticeable when it comes to handling different layers and controlling which part of the interface has focus.
Some functionality is also quite hidden and exploring the interface isn’t so useful for finding it, often I found myself prompting a search engine instead. But I can also see that Gimp is a complex program with a ton of functionality and it’s very hard to make the interface intuitive for every type of user at once.
¿Does florisboard support multiple input languages at once? I might switch within a conversation or even mix words within a single sentence. So far I haven’t found a good open source alternative to SwiftKey in that regard.
In case your browser isn’t completely locked down: there’s also image editors that run as web apps like photopea.
Good point.
I guess just having a staggered temporal restriction is fine, don’t need to wait until you retire necessarily. You would still receive a portion of your salary package in the form of classic currency and plenty for a good life too. An example could look like this and I’m obviously making up the percentages and durations here, they would need to be fine tuned:
I guess it would be best to change the rules so that they cannot trade their company stocks at all while working there and a reasonable period beyond. I think some legislations already restrict floating stock like that but I’m no expert on the matter.
It’s sad that for some of the more obnoxious offenders where you need to individually opt out for each ad partner they carry it still may take the addon 30+ seconds. Imagine how long it would take to click everything manually. And that stuff is illegal by the way: rejecting everything must be just as easy as accepting everything. If I come across such a site I typically just avoid them from that point forward.
Printed comics (in native language are also really good), paticularly those aimed at a younger audience (think Walt Disney classics like Mickey Mouse or Donald Duck). The phrases are usually short and use everyday language. The graphical design (colors, postures, framing, fonts, panel alignment, etc) are all in support of conveying the action.
Shout out to Banjo Kazooie, an older platformer from the Nintendo 64 game era, where the antagonist always speaks in silly rhymes. So the translators needed to translate and also make it rhyme while also keeping the context and humor intact. They took creative freedom of course because there simply isn’t a good match but it actually enhances the game in a way. So if you played the game in French before and now switch to English you’ll get a fresh set of jokes and rhymes.
To be fair in this subfield even the articles written by real humans are often speculative at best. Stock markets are influenced by millions of individual decisions (most of which are in themselves carried out by digital algorithms) and there isn’t a single narrative responsible for a stock’s course. It’s much like the weather in that regard.
The development is certainly extant though. In newspapers many of the shorter, repetitive snippets have been machine generated for a long time now. I’m talking about summaries of sports matches with sentences like "but then just before half time scored to . You just feed the program a table with who scored goals at which minute and it generates it for you.
You can also use Syncthing to keep your notes synchronized across multiple devices. Syncthing is an app that does just that (keep files synchronized in the background).
