Right now most browsers are based on an engine owned by Google with a small percentage based on Firefox, which has historically depended on Google for significant funding. Not a great situation.

For something as important to modern life, its beneficial to have more diversity, if only to add different security flaws to it then exist in Chrome and Firefox.

Right. Only overlap appears to be dual land-use.

Same. Our cats prefer cardboard boxes cut down to be about 3” walls vs a commercial cat bed.

Then link to the politico story, not a screenshot of a post about it.

More of a teaser than a trailer.

I’m tempted to try Hikari just because it uses Darcs.

I preferred it to Git until Git dominated so thoroughly that I started using Git for personal as well as work projects.

Where can I find docs about Albert’s support for dmenu features? I didn’t find any mention on the Albert website.

I saw that Albert supports plugins and extensions but couldn’t find a list of the plugins and extensions were.

It's possible that wofi's HTML and CSS support allow for some visual effects the others don't.

Wofi was updated by the author 13 hours ago:

https://hg.sr.ht/~scoopta/wofi

The banner says "This project is not being actively maintained. It does still receive some updates from time to time but nothing frequent."

It's fine for a project to reach "maturity" and quit getting updated much, but the Wofi docs, interface and features still seem like they could use some polish.

It's open source, so anyone else is always welcome to use the current state as a base to build on if they prefer to.

Aside from Wofi's support for Pango/HTML/CSS, I don't see a reason to use it over Fuzzel, though.

I use Zathura. I like that it has option to be completely borderless with some vim-like navigation.

Makes a fine PDF viewer. Nice for tiling window managers.

 
 

If you have been using an ergonomic mechanical keyboard for more than year, let us know which keyboard it is, and whether you plan to keep to keep using it for at least another year or if there's another keyboard you are considering trying instead.

 

I have a Logitech C920 and am looking to upgrade. Something suitable for streaming.

Some annoyances with the Logitech: sometimes autofocus fails and poor reproduction of blacks. Ex: Lack of detail when a black cat is on screen.

I already have a nice mic-- the webcam doesn't need one.

 

To open a file relative to the current one in Helix, you can to the do the following with 24.3:

:o <C-r>%<C-w>

Here, the Control-R allows you to select a register and the special register "%" contains the current file path and inserts into the command line, while the final Control-w chops off the last part of the file name leaving with you current directory.

This is like :o %:h from Vim/Neovim
