Firefox (Nightly) on Android: tabs don't work: when clicking on a tab, the URL changes, there's a slight jump in content, but the new tab is not selected. Hope this helps

Even a version without AC charging (just solar + regen) with a smaller battery seems like a good deal

I don't understand the font bit. This is a terminal script, it uses the font that your terminal uses?

This is so true. Sorry you got downvoted.

yup, Xiaomi products are generally easy to repair. I've replaced a suction motor on a Roborock, built one working electric scooter out of two broken (in direct ways) ones. The firmware on the scooter is easily replaceable, the one in the vacuum makes it easy to install valetudo. If only more manufacturers were this way.

Have an index.html that's also (byte-to-byte equal) served as favicon.ico. If that page "works" and the favicon doesn't show garbage, it is a website stored in a favicon (by my standards).

Random idea:

volts as Hours amps as Minutes

Resulting wattage drives an iridescent bulb

You can push to GitHub using Sapling. I wish Sapling open source was given more love, as the experience for non-Facebookers is subpar. No bash completion outside the box, no distro packages, no good help pages, random issues interacting with a Git repo...

> I must apologise that I haven’t so far open-sourced any part of this that I don’t have to. Mainly that’s because I think this would be an awesomely sticky web property for a printer consumables firm to integrate with their sales site. And I’d much prefer it if they paid me to white-label it for them, rather than just forking a repo and getting it all for free.

They might be interested if they cared at all about the ease of use of their printers

well, I mean, why can't this ship with an X server? Or maybe it does and then I'm not sure why it is said that only Haiku apps are supported

For my daily machine, I need Docker, terminal, Firefox (for private browsing), Chrome (for work), VS Code and/or JetBains IDE. If this can feel a bit like I remember BeOs felt, that'd be awesome
