I started and when a grasped the concept I immediately closed the page and walked away haha. I foresaw myself spending hours and hours trying to finish this game. It is like 2048 but harder.

@CoBE10 Tried this extension and found it better for me than Tree Style Tab. Your config is a custom CSS? Would you mind sharing it? Thanks!

Oh...sad i didn't saw this early. Already updated here and this reveal "feature" is the worst usability experience they could push to an app like that. I use this daily to login to multiple services and will migrate to something more like the old version asap.

As a Linux user I can relate to that. I always avoid spaces in folders and filenames as they make it more annoying to manipulate them using command line tools. Years later I carried this habit to whatever OS I am using.

I would suggest Linux Mint. I have been using the same installation since 2015 without problems. I'm currently one version behind the latest and I only upgrade when its absolutely necessary (e.g. a new GPU doesn't have drivers). I do keep it updated too, due to the LTS nature of the distro. Its a very stable distro to use if you don't need bleeding edge software from the repos. I use it for all my stuff, including gaming (mostly Steam) and development.

Just something you need to know tho, these little issues/teaks you describe, I consider that they are part of the Linux experience and no distro will be completely free from them. Sometimes things will break and you'll have to fix them, that's not a problem, its just different from what people are used to on other Operating Systems (as things break differently). With time and experience using Linux their frequency will drop (you'll know what parts of the system are more prone to break and how to avoid it) or will be less annoying (you'll know how to fix stuff without losing hours searching on the net).

Good luck, I think its worth the time spent learning, as Linux gives you a great amount of power over the system and what you can do with it.

I got the virus too and I agree with you 100%. My symptoms were just fever in the first day then I lost all my sense of smell (which is still recovering), but what scared me the most was the psychological effects I had to deal with.

I tried to get myself busy, did my workouts everyday, worked from home, that helped a lot. But was mostly at night when I was doing nothing that bad thoughts would try to take control. Some days I would think that I was having difficult to breath, start to get dizzy, but it was all in my mind. I then would calm down, take some deep breaths and watch all the "symptoms" disappear.

I blame that on the apocalyptic coverage the media gave to this disease, every day on every channel, if you tuned in, all you would see were patients in respirators, people dying and mass graves.

Now what I try to do is be very optimistic when talking to people about the disease. I say to them that although it can be a dangerous disease, the majority of those infected will recover without trouble and that I was one of them, so they can have a good case to remember against all the bad news they already have heard. It may help them when they had to deal with it too, as sadly I think everyone will have at some point.

Explorer: If you type cmd and press enter in the path bar it opens a cmd prompt at the current directory. Other way to open it is to hold shift when opening the folder context menu to expose this option.

Holding Shift while opening context menus usually show more advanced options, like the possibility to run as another user when right-clicking something executable.

Firefox: If you try to drag the mouse to select part of a link it you drag the link (so you can place it on the bookmarks toolbar/etc), to prevent this behavior you can hold Alt and now it'll let you select the text without dragging the link (this one is not windows specific, it works on Linux too).

It appears to be working fine now. I would like to read a postmortem to know what could cause this kind of problem. It propagated real fast and in a few minutes all DNS servers I tried to query aren't responding to br domains.

I agree with you on that, Android is far less hostile to installing software outside of the store than iOS.

The problem is, if the developer wants its software to reach the wide audience of the platform, its a obvious choice for him to use what the users perceive as the "official way" of installing software. Sure, you can offer both ways, but if your app is missing from the official store, the majority of users won't even know it exists.

IMHO we, as users and developers, have our share of the blame for problems like this one, and we should be vigilant so Android doesn't become like iOS.

I use Podcast Addict every day, I would even say that is my most used app on android. I work listening to podcasts and PA is the best app for those who like highly customizable software. You can change almost everything.

Its sad that we are in a situation where a company can dictate what we can install on our computers/smartphones. I know we can sideload apps on android, but the majority of users doesn't care about this and just give away its freedom to really own the device in exchange for the easiest way to operate it. And every day we walk towards lesser control of our property and more dependency of those companies.

Another problem is that developers can, without notice, be locked out of their incomes for whatever reason without ways to properly appeal. Those who can, we should consider supporting the developer Xavier Guillemane on Patreon, at least until this situation gets resolved. The amount of work he put on the app, its probably his main source of income and I wouldn't like if he need to abandon the app development due to this. The lowest tier is just $1.
