Depends on the content. When people are talking in a nondescript (thing the "12 Angry Men" movie), SD is quite fine. Now compare it to Blade Runner or Scarface. Those movies absolutely benefit from more detail and colors.

I think what could work is requiring users to prove their authenticity and uniqueness using a national ID of some sort. It would be bad for privacy, no doubt, but it surely would work. But the users' actual names should not be displayed.

I would say some of the 'newer' tools like rg and jq are just about essential.

Here are a few more I saw just now:

* https://github.com/siteboon/claudecodeui

Here are 2 that I found in my bookmarks that I haven't tried:

* https://github.com/laurentenhoor/devclaw

* https://www.workforest.space/

I see these kinds of repos and projects being posted on Reddit all the time. I just never get around to trying them :(

I'm still doing this, too! The only thing I added was setting up notifications on my local machine using hooks in Claude Code (using a reverse ssh tunnel from my local machine to a VPS).

As for fancier setups, I keep bookmarking them, but haven't gotten around to trying any of them, yet.

I think everyone started out with this

MacOS has a few decent tiling WMs, too.

And yes, the fullscreen mode is the perfect example. It is so shockingly poorly implemented that I almost never use it. Even if someone thought it was 'good enough', that doesn't change the fact that there is a forced transition animation when going to/from fullscreen that is unreasonably slow and awkward.

Agreed. On MacOS, I use a variety of smaller apps and scripts to make it less awkward, e.g. Karabiner, BetterTouchTool, Hammerspoon, and, of course, "Alt-Tab" (https://alt-tab-macos.netlify.app/). I am even contemplating starting to use a dedicated window manager, such as Aerospace (https://github.com/nikitabobko/AeroSpace/). But all of this is a massive time investment.

And if you bring up these points to an Apple fanboy, they'll tell you that "you just don't get it" or "forget all the 'bad Windows habits' and just learn the Apple way of things. It's soooo intuitive!!".

Someone has to take the first step. Let's be grateful to the brave anon HN poster for stepping up.

I'm personally a huge fan of Typora. It's available on Windows, MacOS and Linux.

Just go with LTSC

I only played the first one, because the second one was more finnicky and required newer hardware. But I must say, NOLF 1 is one of the best and most unique FPS games ever. It should be far, far more famous than it is.

I don't know why the sarcasm is so necessary. I very much enjoyed Nextcloud and I proudly ran it for the better part of a year. I even ran various NC-ecosystem apps, such as the Office ones. However, my objective was to try it out from the standpoint of regular self-hosting. I wanted to contrast the 'out-of-the-box' experience to Dropbox, which I had been using for many years up to that point. Yes, one was centrally hosted, while the other was self-hosted, but still, that was the experiment I was running. So I'm sorry if I didn't live up to your standards of what a user should be doing to their software, but I sure had lots of fun self-hosting tons of software at that time.

Good to know!

That's a good tip. I had my local self-hosting phase during covid, but if I ever come back to it, I'll try this.

The major shortcoming of NextCloud, in my opinion, is that that it's not able to do sync over LAN. Imagine wanting to synchronize 1TB+ of data and not being able to do so over a 1 Gbps+ local connection, when another local device has all the necessary data. There is some workaround involving "split DNS", but I haven't gotten around to it. Other than that, I thought NC was absolutely fantastic.

I have a very silly primary reason for preferring the Kitty terminal - I configured it to look very minimalistic and compact. It doesn't even have the customary app titlebar at the top. The other benefit is that it's actually a lot faster to start up than Terminal.app when you first invoke it. I know iTerm2 is really well-liked, but to me, it gave the "Breakin' 2: Electric Boogaloo" vibes.

Very impressive! I'll look into some of these.

How do you use the remote control of Kitty? I have barely explored it.

I don't see the point of that, but I switched to Kitty from Terminal.app and it feel much snappier all around. Even faster than iTerm2 (which I liked, but not enough to ditch Terminal.app).

Omarchy sounds very compelling (though I'm personally done with trying to run Linux on the desktop), but tiling window managers are just not very practical, for numerous reasons. DHH would be wise to also offer and optimize non-tiling WM setups.

This is why I come to HackerNews. This made my day.

This command solve the problem for me: https://www.chezmoi.io/reference/commands/merge-all/

I have the $20 tier and I'm not seeing it, either.

EDIT: literally saw it just now after refreshing. I guess they didn't roll it out immediately to everyone.

Youtube was about to get destroyed by an avalanche of lawsuits by the TV/movie industry. Without Google's army of lawyers, they would not have lasted.

pipx is still the best tool for standalone utility type of packages: "yt-dlp", "glances" (like htop), etc.

This is where uv comes in to save the day.
