I see EarTrumpet, I upvote.
Also, QuickLook.
Goodness I actually have a pixel 3a kicking around.
Now if only I could find a use for my galaxy s8 besides glorified webcam.
OMF2097 hold a special place in my heart. As a kid, it was my first “serious” game (and the only fighting game I ever enjoyed), and I played the heck out of the demo. Then I found out there was more game to be had! With my dad’s help we ordered the full version over the phone. When that arrived in the mail, oh man, my excitement was through the roof.
I also recall being very excited over a 3D sequel that never materialized.
I am so prepared to destroy all my fond memories of this game by trying to get it running on the Steam Deck.
I think the CEO firing you meant that he wasn’t bluffing.
I’ve experienced this on pixel devices. I’ve found the solution is to force stop the pixel launcher when it happens.
Seeing it happen in real time in Ontario is soul crushing.
Dorfromantik hits the seasonal vibes quite well.
Windows: PowerToys. First thing I get approval to install on a work machine. PowerToys Run (Launchy on roids) saves me from the built in Windows search, a quick calculator, etc. PowerRename gets used more frequently than I care to admit. Video Conference mute is a second nature key combination. Can’t remember the name of the window manager module but it is a key part of my workflow.
Android: As I’ve mentioned in a reply, Edge Gestures has been on my phone for years (first installed on a Pixel 3). Having 10+ apps accessible (especially 2FA, password vault, home assistant) from any screen, plus gestures for quick controls (flashlight, brightness slider) is incredibly handy. And unlike the notification shade, the edges of the phone can actually be reached with your thumb.
Linux: Docker. It’s been an instrumental part of building out my home server which allowed me to kill my Microsoft 365 & Google One subscriptions. For me it has been the gateway drug in to learning more and more about self hosting - to Proxmox, LXCs & VMs, pihole and unbound, etc.
This is a nice share. I have used Edge Gestures for years (made by the same dev who created Square Launcher, which was my daily driver coming off Windows Phone) and this is a nice augmentation to that.
I am curious about the usefulness of the functionality behind the paywall. It looks like some of the app launching features could replace what I use edge gestures for, but without a trial to test it I can’t be certain.
If you use the pro version, can you let me know if there is a way to pick from multiple applications to launch?
Here’s an example of the application shortcuts in Edge Gestures:
Any reason to use Flow Launcher over Power toys Run?
I’ve learned the keyboard shortcuts that matter to me, but I agree I wish it was a consistent horizontal bar.
UI scaling?
I recently switched from ShareX to Flames hot (on Windows) because of it.
5 minute timers for activity transitions. I started using them as a visual aid for when bath time would end, now she asks for them at every transition - before going to school, before leaving the park, before eating dinner, before getting ready for bed.
And while sometimes we want something done right now, her request for a 5 minute timer is a great check on our own expectations - are act of the things that we’re asking so critical as to impose our will on her and deny these 5 minutes? Pretty much never.
It also works great for when we need 5 minutes - we can ask for a 5 minute timer before joining her for play, etc.
I was burned on the first gen Watchy - most shipped with a busted real-time clock. It was a watch that couldn’t keep time. In order for them to do a replacement, they required a decent amount of technical knowledge that I didn’t have in order to run commands and spit out a report. I was using the watch as a tool to learn, but wasn’t at that stage.
The lesson I learned was don’t buy pre-release hardware.
“I like everyone!”
I found that Flameshot does not automatically select an annotation tool after snipping - which turned me off it.
Unless there is a setting I missed that enabled that. I went with Ksnip as a result.
ShareX is my favourite, but that UI doesn’t scale.
Haven’t used it, but I am aware that Next loud has a forms plugin.
