I have a relative with glioblastoma who could see his granddaughter born if he extends his life a while. Thanks a lot for sharing!
I was planning to implement the same thing. Happy to see there is a way to quickly check where to go instead of Reddit or when a community is private.

For those interested in this, I recommend also checking Immersed VR. It's not standalone (you still need a PC somewhere) but it works great. I can not wait until we have devices with better optics!

$83/mo or around $994 annually is crazy way too much for me. I hope them the best because I love that kind of content and want it to be more popular, but I will wait until a better priced option comes.

I'm a user of Immersed (an VR for productivity app) and I use to code frequently.

I wanted QPro to be a success. I expected at least a reasonable bump in resolution. What was released is just disappointing and I can not justify paying that price point. I would go for Pico4 before of QPro.

Re:Ireland joins OECD International Tax agreement on Saturday October 09, 2021 @05:03AM (#28808204)
Why shouldn't people or companies be able to move where they can grow, prosper or have rules according to their values or projects? Curiously, when we talk about taxes the focus is often in the country that is harboring people instead the one that made itself unattractive.

Than can be done with less taxes than the average europeans one. It is also debatable which of the estates attributed roles can't be done better by private companies.
Re:Ireland joins OECD International Tax agreement on Saturday October 09, 2021 @04:48AM (#28808126)
I am really surprised by the HN community. I wasn't expecting people to downvote an user who politely expressed his point of view just because theirs is the opposite.

Cyprus is part of the EU and have the same law system (they were a British colony)

Congrats. It is a curious plugin. I am not sure if I want to substitute my fzf one, but I found the video interesting. Also, loved a few things about your setup. Do you have a open neovim configuration?
Re:How to Run a Live Coding Stream on Twitch Using OBS on Tuesday July 14, 2020 @01:35PM (#23835028)
I would love to know how to do it with Linux/Ubuntu. I tried with OBS and always run into a bunch of issues when trying to create something beyond a basic scene.

Before switching to Firefox, I previously used Internet Explorer, which had no tabs support. In an era of frequent pop-ups, your desktop ended being a mess.

It was annoying, but that is what I was used to. Then Firefox came and allowed to have all your browsing in the same window, without polluting the taskbar.

In my case, I clearly remember that tabs were the reason to switch into Firefox.

Re:Ask HN: What worries you when selecting a remote worker? on Saturday December 29, 2018 @11:26AM (#18784275)
Thanks for your answer, byoung2. I have been working remotely a similar number of years so I hope I can sort that filter.

Thanks too for the tip as I have not considered it. I did not know about gotomeeting. I am going to install and test after I click the reply button.

I share the "being a remote-first company" screener too and I expect to dodge that "bullet" :). I have the concept of what kind of company I want to join very clear... what really worries me is passing their filters. I have no problem with the initial screening in my country... but this is the first time that I face global competition!

Re:Ask HN: What worries you when selecting a remote worker? on Saturday December 29, 2018 @11:07AM (#18784179)
Thanks, cimmanom, this list is definitely helpful. I noticed that you mentioned communication twice! I will work harder on improving my communication skills meanwhile.

Ask HN: What worries you when selecting a remote worker?

In order to increase my chances to get my ideal remote job I am trying to anticipate and solve the common concerns the employer may have. I have listed some like "Is the timezone compatible?", "Does this person have a history of working remotely successfully?". Which others concerns/screeners am I missing?

I would pay for the learning process. The price would depend on topic depths. If you share the lessons titles I would have no problem in giving numbers.
It seems like the cache link I previously pasted does not allow to click on deeper links on the site. Sorry. At least it helps to have a quick view to the content.
I am getting a 509 Bandwith Exceeded error. The sites is still accesible via http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:jNN8m0q...
It is nice to see Matrix in HN: this project needs more visibility.

In a world dominated by Slack, which removes privacy/history control from users and place walls, Matrix is the promise to have a better open scenario than IRC was.

I am crossing my fingers. I hope with all my heart to this technology to flourish.

Re:Ubuntu 18.04 Bionic Beaver Released on Thursday April 26, 2018 @06:56PM (#16936732)
Release note is not yet ready but they are announcing it in the website: https://www.ubuntu.com/.

This release got a little bit delayed because of an unexpected bug that have been solved and tested in the same day.

Good job and congratulations to Canonical and associated devs!

Re:Ubuntu 18.04 LTS (Bionic Beaver) Released on Thursday April 26, 2018 @06:40PM (#16936619)
There have not been a release announce yet, but they are updating docs.

Please, consider help seeding the torrents.

Re:Ubuntu 18.04 LTS on Thursday April 26, 2018 @06:09PM (#16936354)
Its a good opportunity to seed the torrents. I am already on it.
Re:Ubuntu 18.04 LTS on Thursday April 26, 2018 @05:41PM (#16936114)
This are the download images but the official announcement have not yet occured
Re:Ubuntu 18.04 LTS (Bionic Beaver) on Thursday April 26, 2018 @10:21AM (#16932104)
Currently this is currently pointing to the beta 2, not the LTS.
Re:Catalan referendum: 'Hundreds injured' in Catalan clashes on Sunday October 01, 2017 @10:06AM (#15377874)
The number of injured have been reported by the Catalan officials, which benefits from enlarge the amount. Maybe the number is true. I will remain skeptic until information from several sources is provided.
Re:Catalan referendum: 'Hundreds injured' in Catalan clashes on Sunday October 01, 2017 @09:59AM (#15377839)
I am not excusing neither of the behaviors: both violents and not professional policemen are doing wrong. All your text is based not in what I said, but in yours interpretations of my words

I am adding references for the women issue too.

Re:Catalan referendum: 'Hundreds injured' in Catalan clashes on Sunday October 01, 2017 @09:47AM (#15377769)
I am uploading it so you can see it. (Nice downvote before letting me prove my words :) )
Re:Catalan referendum: 'Hundreds injured' in Catalan clashes on Sunday October 01, 2017 @09:39AM (#15377739)
The woman was not injured by police: she had an accident with the stairs going to vote.

There are videos with the attack to the police. At the end, there are violent people with the pacifist voters and not professional policemen too.

EDIT: Evidence asked, here it is https://youtu.be/wmLTRluQm94

EDIT 2: I was asked for source about the women and people manipulating pictures. Two sources here: https://twitter.com/arb149/status/914401352230621184/video/1 http://www.larazon.es/espana/difunden-en-twitter-imagenes-fa...
