Thank you! Precisely my thoughts. I was a paying Kagi customer for a year, but compared to e.g. Brave’s on search index, their results were not vastly superior. I never got into using all those fancy search !bangs or custom prioritizations for individual sites and >90% of their changelog updates in that 1 year were about which additional new LLM was now also available for Ultimate Tier customers - but I didn’t come to Kagi for LLM assistants. That’s didn’t use to be their value proposition.

POSIX and shell functions can get us very far indeed. At least, not everthing’s an object in Bash. :P

I am also pretty confused about this. Any idea why the usual releases aren’t available?

As long as I can still customize Gnome with some extensions for improved focus, it’ll stay my DE of choice.

“The check is in the mail”

That’s what happens when you rehire the local DVP during reunification.

Muckefuck wie WWII. Passt zur Zeit.

Decided to OpenSource instead of Software Patent (as my employer was urging me). Nowadays, that technique is used in every decent Image CDN + compression tool. Still proud to see it everywhere. Maybe it wouldn’t have made it if had been patented.

Many other good ones have already been mentioned, so I won’t repeat those titles. But “Suspiria” (2018 edition) definitely deserves a mention. The ending is just … well, clearly somebody amongst the original writers had some issues regarding reproductive systems … but the other 98% of the movie feature brilliant suspense & eiriness at all times. And Tilda Swinton is simply to-die-for in it. ;)

It Follows is definitely one of the best horror movies regarding suspense and general feeling of … gloom?! Eireness?! Futility?! Darkness?! Whatever it is, I love it!

And the (potentially) underlying message is powerful.

A Knippix Kombi-Zange. Well played! Good tools are worth every cent.

(FYI: this is divorcées attempting to date)

Went on my 1st date after divorce. Sat down together at a café. After greeting each other, she immediately asks “So when do you intend to move to my town?”. I reply by saying “Whoa! Take it slow. Let’s get to know each other first!” and feeling that she can’t be serious about her question.

She, however, explodes in my face that she has a life and a kid in that other town and no time to waste. I managed to reply that I have a life and kids in this current town we’re in, too, before she jumps up and storms away cursing.

Not the most conducive first post-marital dating experience.

Definitely “Abzû” and “Hellblade: Senua’s Sacrifice”. One is a beautiful piece of art that touches me every time I replay it and the other finally gave me a wonderful example to show to friends & family of how noisy it is in my head sometimes.

+1 on this. Hiker+Trail-Runner here. So I sometimes encounter cows on high mountain passes where taking a detour can mean hours of delay. But after getting kicked like that once, I am very careful around herds, esp. when they have young ones / horns (as they often do grassing on mountains) / bulls in the mix.

Now I’m left wondering what the children of a water system look like.

In no particular order:

• Finally do those after-class reading + tutoring sessions for kids in my daughter’s school.
• Sign up for shifts on the “Good-Night-Bus” in my local town that looks after homeless people during night-time.
• Play hand-pan, guitar & other random instruments at local relaxation spots to add to the overall atmosphere of “the good life”
• regularly offer my handymen skills to my neighborhood via local web-platform and also contribute to “Repair-Cafés” as a helping hand
• Find a local community-garden project to help out at so that the city stays 0.1% greener than without me
• Offer my yet-currently-relevant professional skills (Frontend / WebPerf / CDNs / DevOps) to a NGO that couldn’t usually afford my wages (again: preferably something relevant to my region to feel a sense of impact)
• Keep maintaining my OpenSource repositories and publish new ideas ASAP to prevent Software Patents

Magnolia.

Having JUST finished replaying it myself last week, I wholeheartedly enjoyed your review. Thank you!

I had the exact same thought regarding the ending: the girl that in this game is so often depicted as vulnerable and caring (she loves her friends) is at the same time a ruthless serial killer who doesn’t seem to hesitate for a second about setting dozens of stranded survivors on fire who “just” want to escape the island as desperately as she does. When the final outro cutscene was playing and she ends with "I’m not going home…" I couldn’t help but fear for the next group of people she’ll encounter. ;)

Non-sequitur: OMG did I hate the quick-time events, though! Felt like I needed to fail at least 3x for EACH quick-time event before I got it right. /o\
