• Nyxt: The Hacker's Browser

  Uzbl (https://www.uzbl.org/) used to do that but it seems it was too heavy in practice. Today I'm more interestea in turning the web into a more textual format to integrate it in acme (http://acme.cat-v.org/) which is already built around modularity.

• Just remember you are blessed with font choice. Arial on code is actual nightmare fuel.

  Back in the Plan 9 days, with the acme text editor, a non-monospace font was default and fairly common to use.

• S23 8k video freezes when played on VLC computer

  Use MPV. Partticularily shinchiro's builds. Extract the folder where you want its installation directory to be, if you decide to install it. Otherwise, just drag and drop files on top of its window or executable. Source: 5 months ago

• Google Chrome just rolled out a new way to track you and serve ads

  One example is a script to quickly grab the URL of the current tab and send it to mpv¹ for playing or yt-dlp² for downloading. Or send some JavaScript to that same tab. Or grab the URLs and titles of all tabs in all windows that match a specific domain, close them, and then reopen in a brand new window. Alfred³ has a ton of automations that allow you to do that without having to code it yourself. ¹ https://mpv.io... - Source: Hacker News / 8 months ago
