• Do you accurately track your time?

  If you want to do this independent of the PSA agent you can look at ActivityWatch to run on your own systems.

• Open-Shell: A collection of utilities bringing back classic features to Windows

  Whenever I need to live on a Windows system for any length of time, I install [notepad++](https://notepad-plus-plus.org) Do you prefer Notepad3 over Notepad++, and can you share why if so? - Source: Hacker News / about 1 month ago
