Thank you for this! I’ve found myself getting more interested in birds just this past year, and that app looks great. I got a set of binoculars for stargazing but been finding myself using them more to look at birds lol

Everyone know those are supposed to go in your left pocket! …right?..

I’m interested in hearing about this from others, too. I’m in the middle of finding the next distro for my work now that centos 7 is reaching EoL. OpenSuSE is looking appealing (maybe because it’s completely new to me), using leap of course, but I’ve setup tumbleweed in WSL and am planning to set it up to dual boot and use it as my primary OS. Based on what I know, it wouldn’t be “better” than Arch, just a different way of managing updates. Tumbleweed is all automated for packaging and preparing updates, so the same issues that happen with AUR could also creep in to tumbleweed (I assume). One of the prices to pay for bleeding edge rolling releases

You can set Windows to use UTC for the hardware clock (or have Linux use local time shudder). Just need to set a registry key:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\TimeZoneInformation]
"RealTimeIsUniversal"=dword:00000001

There’s a symbol at the top left of the file or directory icon to select the item rather than open. It’s stays there even if you have double click to open

It needs a catchy name, maybe something like “Texit?” Get that on the ballot, see what happens

Chromium isn’t native to Windows. iOS is the only OS (I’m aware of) where browsers are forced to use a specific engine, but even that will be changing

No, I’m not. Chromium doesn’t exist in Windows unless you install a program that includes it. Chromium web engine is “native” to the chromium web browser, not to any OS (except maybe ChromeOS). As espi mentioned, Internet explorer’s mshtml is the only engine “native” to Windows. Just look at the Opera browser, they changed web engines from Presto to chromium; that’s not using “what’s native to the platform” (Opera works across all OS’s with chromium, except for iOS for the restriction I mentioned before), it’s using what the developers/company want to use to render their pages. Nothing in Windows itself provides any of the chromium engine “pieces”

Their tops are made out of rubber, their bottoms are made out of springs!

And ears. Not covered (in the USA, at least) because “just about everyone suffers hearing loss at some point in their life” (aka not a profit maker) so might as well not cover it at all for anyone, including those with profound loss from birth…
