Annotate PDFs on Linux

WSL 2 GPU Support for Docker Desktop on NVIDIA GPUs

The past few months, you’ve often found your books to be missing letters, replaced by white space. Cleaning up one day, in one of your notebooks, you find a nest of words, eggshells, a poem about a bird, exiting by a window just as you turn around

@kas@enotty.dk [re: gopher client] If you happen to be on Windows, then Gopher Browser for Windows by Matt Owen is pretty nice, otherwise I use Lynx indeed for gopher.
Looking for a reason to use Firefox more when developing sites? on macOS it’s the browser that smashes into the least horizontal space. Good if you like having a browser window running all the time. Doubly good if you like running it in Split View.
iOS and macOS get to Windows Vista levels of voice recognition. Finally.

Idea for a room: It’s empty save for a number of mobile screens that follow you around and with a little bit of head tracking, act like windows into a completely different building.↵You could fit a cathedral in there, if so inclined, or maybe an Escherian maze.
built around a fusion reactor, a reverse cathedral with windows to let light out instead of in, painting patterns into the night
as you idly stare out of the window, a crack shows up in the glass, seems to be looking for something, then, as if startled, quickly retreats and leaves no trace
