These are my notes. I never liked the term blog, because it has this feeling that someone is trying to become famous... These "notes" are just my way to not look up for something for too long, reflex on something and stuff. Some of these are deliberate re-posts from other websites (if it's a repost - there's always a link to the original)
UMPCs stand for Ultra-mobile PC. It's a rather modern term, used nowadays. Oh, I'm so excited about these! There is this childish feeling of owning a "high-tec gadget" - an all-in one all-purpose thingie, and carrying it around with you.
But, when it comes to actually using one - I have no idea what to do with them, actually. I believe, that's why nowadays UMPC's are considered "very niche" products and will never develop into something really useful.
Here's a small list of stuff I use every day and could recommend to you, maybe.
My short (5-year) story with OVH. It's more of a rant.
Always pick text first. This is something I've been always telling - and it is something we started to forget with availability of the fast internet. This is a repost from graydon2 website with his thoughs on that, way more structurised than mine will ever be. Also, read comments at source, has some interesting thoughts. Also, read this
Turns out this hotkey is hardcoded somewhere deep in webkit. What I had to do to disable this behavior was finding the name of menu item
(in my case it was File > Share > Email Link), and then going to System Preferences > Keyboard > Shortcuts tab, selecting App Shortcuts there and creating a new shortcut for Vivaldi named Email Link, and assigning something like Cmd+Alt+Shift+Control+F8 to it (to be sure I never accidentally press it)
I see now why all the really cool coders have 3-4 articles on their websites. The internet has got us used to sharing our thoughts somehow. But most of these are not worth sharing, really. Or could be just shared on bird-site or whatever.
I have done and written a lot of stuff. But I, in fact, tend to throw it all away eventually: the websites get deleted, the code (one I've spent a lot of time and effort on!) gets lost (and is never run again). And among all that stuff is, actually, a plenty of things worth posting somewhere, things that could help or inspire others (and make me look cool, he-he)
Probably, I gotta learn to, first of all, preserve it all somehow (especially the sources). And, secondly, to learn to somehow do incremental improvements instead of starting over every time (with this website I am starting over, for instance)
It feels weird, because I've always appreciated the data and always thought that information should be preserved. But I manage to f*ck up the data every time. I tend to even forget names and phone numbers...
A step-by-step instruction about how to flash LineageOS system the and root Galaxy Tab S6 Lite tablet using magisk. I use this tablet, and I am pretty much convinced that using modern android (for anything but phone callse of course) without rooting it is pretty much pointless.
