• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Nexus Mods' new owners promise they won't monetise the site to death as users panic at the whiff of venture capital⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I won’t stop using them because I (seemingly now foolishly) bought the lifetime membership, but I’ll be continuing to look for alternatives.

  Switch 2 battery life also isn’t fantastic.

  Music is a no brainer for me since it’s something that is infinitely re-enjoyable (if that’s a word) and it doesn’t have to take up much space, without reasonable compromises to quality.

  I bought a digital audio player last year so that I could be offline and disconnected when I go out but still enjoy music. One of my favourite purchases the last few years.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Physical Nintendo Switch 2 Edition games are reportedly Switch 1 carts with codes in the box⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  As the title suggests, this is for Switch 2 editions of Switch 1 games.

  CDPR confirmed they’re shipping Cyberpunk 2077 on a 64GB cartridge.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Microsoft is killing OneNote for Windows 10⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ve been using Any.type for a bit over a year, and am very happy with it, but I don’t believe it has hand writing support.

  There is a free tier that includes 1gb synced storage (optional).

  It’s open source. Somewhat similar to Obsidian, but no plugin support that I’m aware of.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨After 40 years of being free Microsoft has added a paywall to Notepad⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Add it to OneNote then?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Obsidian is now free for work - Obsidian⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Have you looked at AnyType? Their free version includes 1gb of cloud storage. It’s far less mature than Obsidian, but may suit your use case.

  I’ve been using it for a little over a year, and love it.

  Also Europe is less run by corporations.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why do residential skyscrapers always seem to include balconies that never get used?⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I live in Berlin, and while I don’t have a balcony myself, I spend a lot of time enviously starring at my neighbours that do, as they use them quite a bit.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why do residential skyscrapers always seem to include balconies that never get used?⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  A friend of mine in Toronto is forbidden to smoke on his balcony now.

  If you have older family members, you could try just installing Firefox for them and tell them it’s their internet now. This worked for me parents.
