Emoji passwords made me think of the Lotus Notes password prompt with their little images that changed as I typed (which never really made sense to me).
Yes, I’m old…
Am definitely human.

Not an alarm, but a timer app.

MultiTimer is brilliant for having a dashboard of purpose made timers that I use all the time (weekly baking, laundry, tea timer, etc) and ad hoc timers.
… Like what is not a very common skill? Touch typing in general? Or doing it under VR specifically?
Asking because I’ve never had the experience: how does one write anything while wearing a VR set? Please don’t tell me it’s one-finger “Fliegender Adler” on a giant floaty image of a keyboard?
This would utterly kill the comfort, convenience, and speed of touch typing, would it not? Ahh, progress… Even in Minority Report they had (friggin’ sweet-looking!) keyboards alongside their fancy futuristic FAUI*.
^((* FAUI - flailing arms UI)^)
New fear worry unlocked…
Seems like this was done by working out passwords based on figuring out where people were looking and gesturing, rather than looking directly at the keyboard.
As a person using an uncommon keyboard layout, I reckon this would make it harder to hack my typing.
IF I could even get such a layout on wherever VR system I would theoretically be using… 😬
I’m honestly pleasantly surprised to see that this project seems to be rather actively developed.
Which is completely separate from having a meaningful user base (near you), so 🤷
I’m with you, but see a million obstacles (aka. reasons for why things require payments).
You would need some form of moderation, to weed out illegal content as well as simply bots, spam, and dead profiles. Also for message content. I’ve given it some thought and suspect it can be crowd sourced to some degree, but also needs counter balances. Instead of limiting a profile to be live/banned, you could have a percentage score of peer-reported subjective legitimacy (ditto for message responses, heck you could even have a section of outright reviews of the person’s behaviour - although that, again would be subject to abuse and moderation).
Hosting, traffic, etc. would be an unavoidable cost, but can be mitigated with low resolution photos (VGA should be “good enough” for an initial impression, no?)
For sure, an open source solution would offer way more fine grained filtering.
You know, if you want to replace Slack, look into Mattermost. It’s foss but otherwise pretty much exactly what Slack does so well.
The way your comment reads, you’ve been using Windows 3.11 these past decades. 😂
Cars should just come with a big open socket up front, where I can buy (or build) my own infotainment system to install there.
…which is precisely what we used to have, before auto makers decided to insist that they should be enclosed in a swooping dash.
A lot of ATM cash machines run Windows 7. Yes, still.
On my old android phone, I have a beautiful 24 hour clock (app and widget) which is unfortunately no longer available in the play store.
Just saying, it exists if you know how to look for it. It was named, believe it or not, “24 Analog Clock Widget”.
Ah, you mean like the sync that Palm OS used to have? Yup, that was neat, and I’m still waiting for Android to pick up some of the neat features from back then.
Oh that is hilarious! Just on my first listen but I don’t quite get the lyrics - am deeply disappointed that the video doesn’t have subs. 🤭
Found it on Spotify. It’s so much worse with lyrics. Thank you for sharing a version without them! 🙏
What I am really looking for is beyond our email, it’s proper integration between calendar, contacts, and map.
I want to be able to share calendars with my family, and link contacts from certain events (birthdays, meetings, and also just meet-ups). I want those contact’s addresses to be available as navigation destinations in the mapping app. I want to be able to bookmark (“star”) map locations.
Tutorial: or everything into airports and long-distance routes, you’ll make more money than you can spend. 🤷 At least, that’s how it was when I stopped playing it.
What’s with all the back slashes? \ why not use a regular…
…line break?
For a second, I thought this was going to be about Reavers…
Yes, I’ve been on Norwegian Dvorak since 2002 or so.
Biggest problem I’ve had is with keyboards and OS’es (cough 🍎) that don’t support the Insert key, because (a) I cut my teeth on the DOS editor and (b) XCV are all over the place on this layout.
I will always use a proper full size keyboard if at all possible. Those 60% and whatnot are not for me (it’s bad enough when they move the arrow keys).
Oh, and the languages insisting on ${} characters are a pain on any non US layout.
I went directly from a dot matrix (ImageWriter II ftw!) to a laser. Except for photo prints, I find it immensely practical to be able to print stuff at home.
