Hi, it’s a new day and I can think a bit clearer now. I remember what the setup was. It’s not entirely an automatic feature.
What I did was create a simple one line batch script that kills a process with a specific name, in my case Nvidia Broadcast. Then, I used Windows’ task scheduler, to automatically run this script when I shut down the computer.
Check out this discussion: https://superuser.com/questions/165142/using-task-scheduler-to-run-a-task-before-shutdown
There is some kind of solution involving legacy windows tools straight from windows 7 or older. I had that issue with an early version of Nvidia Broadcast and I found a way to always kill the process when I want to shut down the computer. I remember it being an actual feature, albeit buried in the aforementioned legacy menus.
Never managed to make one. I just use KDE compose.
Let me know if you find something, though!
On Windows it’s pretty easy. On Linux I found some shady kernel monkey patch for the Ctrl feature, but I don’t remember where.
Dvorak with some custom bindings for German diacritics and the Euro symbol, e.g. AltGr+a gives me ä.
Furthermore, my layout behaves like QWERTY when I told down Ctrl, so that shortcuts like Ctrl+C are still easy to press.
Switching to Dvorak immediately removed any pain I had started experiencing more and more often typing with QWERTY. In the long run it also improved my typing speed. I can usually achieve between 130 and 140.
It’s always the DNS!
Setting up synapse is particularly painful.
We don’t eat salted butter or margarine in Europe. And we’re still just fine. You’re just used to salt so you can’t imagine not having it. It’s the same with sugar in tea. It’s hard to stop putting it in, but once you’re over the adjustment period, you don’t feel like you want to go back. Sweetened drinks in general just taste like sugar to me now. I suppose they same might be true for oversalted food.
I haven’t experienced bot presence on Lemmy nearly as much as other platforms. It feels like Reddit years ago: small, but tight communities.
There are free services that let you send and receive on your own domain. I use zoho. I can send emails with SMTP, but unfortunately, you cannot read them other than by using their web interface in the free tier.
WHY ARE YOU YELLING
The beauty industry hates this one trick to stop skin from aging.
You should definitely bring back the gongs.
For real. I’m baffled every time when I go out and see the prices of “Crêpes”. I can and do make ten or twenty pieces at home for the price of one. All the fun of flipping them included! (Since I’m Yuropean, it’s what we just call pancakes. The same principle applies to American pancakes too, just with a few more ingredients.)
Now that’s some fish to die for!
Alternatively, you can replace an electric grill by sticking the fish directly in your wall socket! The electricity will travel through the wet fish, heating it from the inside - a joy for the whole family!
ICE Richtung die anderen drei Häuser, die 2km entfernt sind? 🥺
Wear hearing protection to concerts, kids.
Other than the things already mentioned, you can read analog clocks easily from great distances, as long as the handles and the face have appropriate contrast (e.g. black on white). Even with impaired vision and large distance, being able to discern the rough position of black smudges on white background is enough to tell the time. This is not possible with a digital clock, because you can’t distinguish between the digits as easily. Therefore, I’d certainly argue their much better for legibility in the back of a classroom or a lecture hall.
