  • I can’t write much today, but I just want to thank everyone for their input. I know that AI means different things for different professions and different people. In cording, it can be quite helpful. But in a language-based profession, it can be problematic, because it can output fluent and convincing language, while getting all the facts wrong. Or it can sound very artistic, but if you look at it closer, it’s not all that original, or the language might become impoverished, and so on and so forth. In tedious and repetitive jobs people are perhaps more willing to give over to AI. Which is what robots are doing.

    I’ll read your replies more closely tomorrow and reply to each one, if I can. Thanks for the discussion!

    Thanks for sharing the instructions with folks here. As I said above, I’ve been a traditional wet shaver for two and a half years, so I pretty much know all this. However, wet shaving takes a lot of time for me and for various physical reasons and limitations, I cannot spend a long time shaving. I’ve learned how to speed up the process, but this means sloppier technique and it shows on my skin. At this point I want to give my skin a break by having a short stubble rather than going for BBS (that stands for BaBy Smooth) every single time. 😄 I don’t mean to scare people away from traditional wet shaving, I’m just speaking for myself, who happens to have some motor function problems etc. If you’re fairly “normal”, there should be no reason not to try traditional wet shaving. It’s a treat and something to look forward to every single time.



  • Tauon Music Box available on Flathub. You look for albums by typing on your keyboard. Once you see the result which says “Artist”, hit enter. It creates a playlist which shows all the albums of that playlist. The next time you want to listen to that artist, start typing and select “[Artist name] playlist”. This concept differs from a traditional concept of playlists, because it doesn’t actually create playlists you can use or export. I just like the UI, although the play controls are bit weird, they don’t quite work the way you’d expect them to. It’s a new project but worth keeping an eye on.

    FocusWriter for a minimalist, focused writing experience. You can edit the existing template for a dark theme and white text. I rather like the typewriter font, Liberation Mono (it was Courier something back on Windows). Give it a try. I’ve been using it for around 3-4 years.
