I miss the Windows 3.11 sound.

That explains a lot.

It sure does, and I am mentally prepared to move over to Hugo. I just haven't had the inner calmness needed to do so just yet, and I probably won't in the near future. At least I could still use WordTsar for it!

My own approach is that there is no way to reach me via WhatsApp. Whenever I need to reach someone who "has WhatsApp", I'll just use their "WhatsApp number" anyway. Only very few people seem to know that their "WhatsApp number" is equal to their SMS/iMessage number... ;-)

Stop using my own bad English against me! However, touché.

Ich kaufe die meisten meiner Platten bei Discogs, stöbere aber gern in Plattenläden und nehme manchmal sehr spontan eine mit. Ich fürchte, ich bin mitschuld - dafür Entschuldigung!

Good idea. Sadly, the number of people my age who want to learn a new language - especially Russian, not quite the most famous language in Germany these days - is limited.

I would really like to see someone adopt and modernize something like Plan 9 or Inferno.

9front exists.

edit: Next time, I should probably read before writing.

Perhaps the EU will force interoperability

I hope they'll never interoperate with Threema. Threema would have to be less secure.

Just another reason to use something better.

This is a paper for a MIT study. Three groups of participants where tasked to write an essay. One of them was allowed to use a LLM. These where the results:

The participants mental activity was also checked repeatedly via EEG. As per the papers abstract:

EEG revealed significant differences in brain connectivity: Brain-only participants exhibited the strongest, most distributed networks; Search Engine users showed moderate engagement; and LLM users displayed the weakest connectivity. Cognitive activity scaled down in relation to external tool use.

 

I know, I know, WordPress is no longer cool, the boss is a dork and PHP is sooo 2000s. Unfortunately, life is often not a concert of wishes, and you have to make compromises.

One of the things that annoys me the most about the newer versions of WordPress is the ‘block editor’. (Yes, there is the Classic Editor. But Automattic has already announced that it won't be around forever. And then what?) It may be useful for people in marketing who want to ‘design’ websites, but I just want to write prose on the Internet and not have to think about trivial things like paragraphs. But what do people who write a lot of prose use?

That's right: WordStar. ;-)

A few years ago, Gerald Brandt published WordTsar - great name! -, a WordStar clone for modern systems that doesn't necessarily require (nor even support) DOS. Writing Word documents with it is really fun. So why not blog posts too?

Like many people in this community, I use a Markdown editor that could also publish directly in WordPress. After a few years with Ulysses, I recently switched to iA Writer on macOS to minimise my software subscriptions. Alternatively, there are also a few WordPress plugins that directly support Markdown as an input format, which is probably still the cheaper option.

So my approach for WordPress blog posts that don't necessarily require fiddling around with the HTML code (sometimes I fancy colour or specially formatted embedded photos, for example) is as follows: I write my posts in WordTsar, convert them with ws2markdown to Markdown and then upload the result to WordPress. I enjoy writing longer texts more this way and am therefore happy to recommend it to others. Maybe you like it too.

wtf

 

Mal eine Frage an Herrn Ametsreiter, Vorstandsvorsitzender der Bertelsmannstiftung:

Man brauche große Data-Center und eine leistungsfähige Glasfaseranbindung, um KI überhaupt ausspielen zu können.

Ich möchte niemandem Dummheit unterstellen, ohne vorher gefragt zu haben, daher vielleicht erst mal: Wie, glauben Sie, war die KI-Forschung der 60er Jahre, die zweifellos "KI ausgespielt" hat, an irgendwas "angebunden"?

 
 

(Wünscht mir Glück)
