EmasXP

I use Exaile. It has queue(s) that you add tracks to, and the library search is outstanding. I have some albums with various artists, and Exaile can group the library by the album artist.

I used to have the files on my NAS, and “syncing” them via smb. Then I reinstalled my NAS, and for some reason decided to not install smb. I was tinkering with the idea of doing a small http server/client thing instead. But to be frank, my library never changes any longer. I just copy it from the NAS once, and that’s it.

I used a player called Listen back in the days. I loved that one so much.

I miss old Opera. I want it back

There’s also LiteIDE

Aha, I see, thank you

+1 for LXQt. But what do you mean XFCE is not ready? Never used MATE, so I cannot tell, but XFCE seemed solid when I used it

I’m still trying out different editors from time to time. I always feel like they are lacking in some way in comparison to Emacs. Like, when there’s no key binding to focus the list of references, or one cannot navigate to the beginning of a block, or one cannot navigate by subword. Let’s not forget sexp. Cannot live without it. Or marks, for that matter. Or proper clipboard history that is properly searchable. It’s like the developers has not seen the light yet. Most editors are very mouse driven, and maybe does not focus enough on actual code navigation. I’m biased of course. Though, Helix seems cool.

Side note: Even though I use Emacs, I have nothing against Vim. Heck, I even use it every now and then.

I admit. This cracked me up.

We all have different levels of insecurity. I think it’s common to not want to hurt the feelings of the ones we love

I second Rawtherapee. I know there’s a lot of love for Darktable, but I personally find the results from Rawtherapee better. Both are great applications

My mind was just blown. Turning off Javascript works, doesn’t it?

Speaking of LaTeX, I really recommend LyX. You don’t need to know any LaTeX to use it, and the result is always satisfying

I think this happens when there’s notifications from Slack in the notification center. For some reason it does not seem to sync. Clearing in the notification center is probably going to “fix” the badge counter

The Brother printer I bought recently was easier to install on Linux than on Mac. I think that says something. Always works too

Over the years XFCE is the DE I’ve used the most. Kept getting back to it. It simply does a lot of things right. That does not mean it’s my favorite, though. There are plenty of good ones out there. LXqt is one I find to be excellent, but it does not get much attention. Enlightenment too, for that matter. Enlightenment feels like it comes from a different era, but it’s quite charming. That said, I think I’m finished with these “small” environments, and will be on KDE from now on. You get the “batteries included” experience, and things generally work very well together. Sure, maybe it’s a bit more resource heavy, but I can’t say I notice.

I use this one for all my work related notes. It’s simply great. Unlike many other note taking apps CherryTree is not made with Electron. So it’s both powerful and very light

As a side note, DBeaver actually asks for confirmation if it thinks you are about to do something wonky. I think it’s quite telling just how common this mistake is. We’ve all been there

“flatsnap”. This made my day
