It is a little annoying that I had to install this in order to remap the capslock key on my laptop to a control key. That's all I use from powertoys, but I guess I'm glad it is at least feasible.

I use SharpKeys for this.

I think this is just wishful thinking. The world is much more complicated and chaotic, so things like “just write better docs” don’t hold up. Especially in the unpaid roles that open source software relies on.

LLMs may be the only chance many people have at writing good docs, or creating those macros to parse one-offs.

Happened to me a couple of days ago. I installed Ublock Lite and it seems “good enough”.

Except that's supporting the ego of a particularly questionable billionaire instead of being truly R&D for its own sake in advancing technology.

Don't tell me: You learned of these ways from the one True Scotsman.

Doubtful. Sean Connery has been dead for several years now.

It's going to take a lot more time and a lot worse crap on the internet to have a greater negative impact than FoxNews has had over its last 10 years. So for that reason, TV is still far worse for humanity.

On the positive side, internet has given us access to a lot of valuable information (for those who seek it out), whereas TV only makes available what the media companies want you to have access to.

I am always amazed when I see (justified) criticism of Fox News without mentioning CNN and MSNBC as equally culpable for a decline in American society. To not see this has to be the result of political partisanship or willful ignorance.

I actually wanted to buy something like this in my backyard for guests or maybe a detached office.

Does anyone have experience with buying a small shack like this? Do I just hire a contractor to build it or are there companies like MUJI in the US?

There are MUJI locations in Boston, NY, and Portland. https://www.muji.us/pages/store-information

Windows 95 required 4MB of RAM and 50-55MB of disk space.
