It depends on what you want to achieve.
Vi and it’s descendants are brilliant editors for a programmer but not for writing prose. So stay away from them. ;-)
Do you want just to write text without being distracted by an overwhelming gui or are you fine with the hint at options?
Do you want to write in a terminal?
How much do you want to format while typing? By typing the format commands into the text or by clicking on buttons or ctrl-key magic?
Do you need version control?
For each of your combination of answers there are different solutions.
rstein@discuss.tchncs.deto Linux@lemmy.ml•would you recommend debian testing for a daily driver?2·2 years agoI used testing for ages, it is really stable. Only the phase after a feature freeze for the release of a stable version can be a bit shaky. For some weeks I just change my repos to the stable version.
rstein@discuss.tchncs.deto Linux@lemmy.ml•would you recommend debian testing for a daily driver?2·2 years agoThat is standard in all of Debian, just get it as a flatpack.
rstein@discuss.tchncs.deto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•what would you do if you have a time machine51·2 years agoAnd after your holiday you return and find the history books changed to Columbus discovering a nearly empty continent in 1492 and a archeological record of a big, continent wide pandemic, killing nearly all of the humans.

rstein@discuss.tchncs.deto Open Source@lemmy.ml•OpenRGB: Open Source RGB Lighting Control For Keyboards, Fans, Mice And Much More for Windows and Linux2·2 years agoI can’t go past the cookie banner with Firefox. Chrome optimised?
But the project can be found at https://openrgb.org/
Same story, same tips, but I started with SuSE Linux 4.3 in 1996. Just try stuff, read the error messages, read docs and ask. A lot of peaople who know stuff are happy to help out of altruism or the chance to show off. ;-)
rstein@discuss.tchncs.deto Technology@beehaw.org•Mastodon thinks Lemmy’s privacy stinks. What say you?English18·2 years agoYou can’t delete a mail you sent me, nor put your hand written letter to me in the bin. I can keep both and I can keep your name and addresses in my little black book. So there isn’t even that level of privacy in the real old fashioned communication.
And communication over the Internet was always the subject of storage. Your mail may be on the backup tape of a mail server. Your usenet posting is on archive.
So the assumption that the fediverse can forget….
rstein@discuss.tchncs.deto Privacy Guides@lemmy.one•How to make payments privately onlineEnglish3·2 years agoInteresting. And how does the system knows who got the real coins? 15 dummy accounts and one real? And can it be backtracked if a dedicated agency in possession of a heavy wrench convinces my arms dealer to give up his keys? Another thing to read up.
rstein@discuss.tchncs.deto Privacy Guides@lemmy.one•How to make payments privately onlineEnglish3·2 years agoThere is no trace of the transaction in the exchange? No way of getting a connection between credit card and Monero transactions?
rstein@discuss.tchncs.deto Privacy Guides@lemmy.one•How to make payments privately onlineEnglish3·2 years agoSo with Monero it’s impossible for a state actor with subpoena power and perhaps access to digital intercepts to untangle a payment?
rstein@discuss.tchncs.deto Privacy Guides@lemmy.one•How to make payments privately onlineEnglish4·2 years agoCrypto isn’t as anonymous as one would think. The ledger is public and if the wallet can in some way associated with your person (credit card for buying crypto, shipping address for something bought with crypto… ) it can be traced.
rstein@discuss.tchncs.deto Privacy Guides@lemmy.one•What do you all use for password management?English10·2 years agoStarted with Lastpass, but migrated to Bitwarden because of open source. And then came the trouble at Lastpass.
Ice is more dense than oil, so it sinks to the bottom of the fryer. There it turns into liquid water anathema immediately into steam. This steam needs at least 1000 times more space than the ice cube (1700 times more than water under normal pressure) and blows all the oil out of the fryer. I would expect quite a fountain. In a science fair experiment 10ml of water in a cup of hot oil gave a considerable fireball and a splash zone of about 1.5m. Dropping in a piece of dry ice (solid carbon dioxide) just made a little bit of a fizzle.
