I figured this can be used to cheat a bit. The paddle warps to the finger instantly on touch. You can use the pause to catch all coins

tridactyl has a similar feature. It let's you break out the edit-pane content into a real vim/gvim editor (default <c-i>). There you have all your vim environment. I use this feature very rarely, e.g. when writing multiple lines in comments and I am in need of the editing power of vim. For simple text input I remain in the browser ui. Getting a vim-editor in all text inputs would be too much for my taste.

I'm a firefox-only user, and I read your comment in two ways. It's grumpy, but also on the point! Thanks, I feel similarly. What is your main browser btw?

FF works for me in great ways, and I am highly productive with it, as long as some plugins still work: uBlock, tridactyl, foxyproxy. And for UI: sidebery, stylus.

From time to time I feel I should turn my back towards FF when they come up with new decisions in their UI, which I drastically reduce (no menu, no tabs,...), or new features, which are more disturbing than helping.

On android, I discovered 'kiwi browser' which is FF based but does not blacklist the plugins.

True, this would discomfort me, too. Also in webconferences, I never share the full screen, only one window. This should be enough for bug squash as well.

Seem to be fun. But I can never play this with not inverted y-axis

If you need this, your private key management needs to be reviewed and reworked, imo.

This categorization seems to be based on one dimensional thinking (not in a bad way).

If you bring in more dimensions you end up with something like a taxonomy where an email contains a message and maybe also a todo or something else and may have more attributes around those identities. Then you can filter by those. I do not use that personally but I see there is no reason to define an email as a todo item.

Also, as an email is just a storage for data, you could (mis)use it as a storage backend for a file system (see fuse) or backup solution.

So an email can be everything you want.

GDPR requires newsletters (not talking about spam) to include unsubscribe links (or similar) in the mails they send. Those are most of the times in the mail body and also sometimes in the mail headers.

Oh you are right. Sorry for the fauxpas. It is mail-tester.com as corrected below. Thanks for mentioning

Right. When I changed my vps to another hoster, I totally forgot how much trouble it was to get a good reputation in the beginning.

But it was really not that much work again. Just unfortunate, because one big Mail provider just discarded instead of rejecting my mails. After this was settled, everything works quite nice again. Important to me is keeping spf, dkim, dmarc and now also mts up to date. See mail-checker.com e.g.

I still wonder though, why some big mail providers do not do dkim/dmarc? I happen to realize this when I started to fight spam and gave incoming mails without dkim/dmarc a high spam score.

To be precise, the wonderful aqbanking is doing the job for gnucash. I do not see why paisa could not use aqbanking as well

Actually, I am quite happy with using my budget HP all-in-one printer; private usage. I also chose to subscribe to the Instant Ink service. I took the smallest one with 10 pages p.m. This plan was, and still is for me, free of charge. So I have not payed for ink in the last 6 yrs. If I print more than 10pages, which happened once, I pay 1€ for another 10 pages. Also why I am happy with HP, is that there is quite decent support in linux (hplip). All in all at least I am happy. One drawback is, that the printer needs to send some telemetry back to HP. But that is the service, if the ink get low, they'll send me cartridges without my interaction.

Thus, I never ran out of ink and did not face the situation of a non working printer/scanner. And I got blinded by the good working service, that I did not realize the lock-in situation I am in. I dislike vendor-lock-ins like these, but for home printing I got used to it, due to the many benefits.
