Handy is missing from the comparison page ;)

Is it possible that you are advertising mantic as an MCP tool without it actually being one? Or at least please document how to use it as such.

Correct, that's what I did with caddy, which is now periodically renewing my wildcard certificate through a DNS-01 challenge.

Like you, I remember 15 years ago when I decided to solve Project Euler in Ruby, a completely new language to me. I still remember the joy I was feeling when I started coding with this new language. So elegant! So natural! Like it was made to fit my brain. It's a pity I ended up working professionally with entirely different stuff.

Anybody unemployed that would like to try doing this for EU? With the author's green light (or even collaboration)

Took me 15 months to find a job after a layoff and then I accepted the first offer that came, which is basically worse in every aspect compared to my previous job. I've read all your stories and feel unexpectedly so connected with each of you. It can be hard. I just want to wish you all the best.

I've been using "homegit" for years and never felt the need for a replacement.

why is a website about programming not writing code blocks in ASCII? I'm referring to quotes and other undesirable symbols

Not sure what you mean with "completely disables it". I have watch history disabled and still see shorts in search results or subscriptions results https://www.youtube.com/feed/subscriptions

I don't think this is, among the recent posts about US, the one for which you should have such a reaction... but maybe I'm missing something important here.

New comment by vault in "Raspberry Pi Lidar Scanner"

My opinion is that skipping lidar is nonsense. Check Mark Rober's video, published one month ago, "Can You Fool A Self Driving Car?" where he compares a Tesla with other Lidar-equipped cars: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IQJL3htsDyQ

I noticed the link in Jeff's post to RX 10 Elements Noise Reduction. The audio in their YouTube presentation was not horrible at all though. Has anybody tried it with some real horrible recording? Like those from a blink mini camera in a room without furniture.

Don't forget Salvini's party, that stole at least 49M between 2008 and 2010. Nothing bad happened: they just have to return them, 600k per year, for 70 years. It's calculated that the final real value of the returned money will be less than 20M. Absolute scandal.

Thanks. I could spend hours watching distant cultures. Their colours, environment, technical equipment... I saw some people in Somalia using DJI microphones, those that in the West are mainly used by YouTubers.

I also see TVs that are normally subject to fees. I'm aware the FAQs say it's only public streams, but I fear this won't last long.

You should ask instead "What does it NOT do that the others do?"

Wow. Thanks to MarkusWandel I discovered I can focus images while crossing my eyes and finally understood your comment. I've always done the "uncrossing" since I was a kid.
