The more videos with the FW12 moving and used before the Camera I see, the less I can ignore the fat bezels. The design language at all is not made for „business“ which is refreshing and they obviously have a budget approach, but such ancient bezels don‘t do a contribution for anything. The lack of any Windows Hello enabling hardware was the final bit for my sad no-buy decision.

An inconspicuous app with a not-so-catchy name with a natural, moderate development history, good documentation and the claim to be the perfect tool for digital text in the Apple ecosystem (although there is also a Windows version). Works with a real flat file storage, which can be synchronized with various services, including WebDAV and explicitly also Nextcloud.

I would love to have something like this in order to provide the office features for documents hosted in nextcloud directly. Yes, there is Nextcloud Office/Collabora Office but this needs separate provider and is not included in hosted Nextcloud (e.g. at Hetzner). The ease of OneDrive + MS365 in comparison is quite attracting. For my current use (sharing documents in a team of 50 - non-commercial but somehow professional approach) the latter is still the tool of choice. Being able to share a link, which allows others to directly edit presentations and spreadsheets in a browser (while the files are available in a local file structure) is just great.

I remembered this extensive article immediately (only that I've read it, not what and where to find). Thanks for saving me from endlessly searching it.

Design of a comprehensible and accessible e-book reader that you can build yourself (or at least have manufactured affordably). It’s designed to be incredibly simple: there are 7 through-hole and 14 surface mount components, nearly all in a 1206 package that’s easy to hand solder.

I would like to see the calculation for sour milk / Acid-set cheese, especially German variety Harzer. Among countless kinds of cheese, despite strongly polarizing due to its taste and smell, it has some "super food" features: Harzer contains very little fat (less than 1%) but extremely high protein (usually around 30%).

Congrats for such an profound launch of kind an Army knife for office needs. I like this approach of "modules" very much, especially compared to MS365 cosmos where you've got the great four apps very prominent and new apps / functions hiding their potential power behind a lot of new names and rather confusing menues.

What is your vision about email? I know, it's not an advanced nor modern technology but still the established backbone of office communication, especially if you want to conquer the given field. Despite MS365 has Outlook as default app working with emails in other contexts is still a pain.
