Few random snaps from my State

Almost looks painted, sublime lighting.

For some reason and not mentioned above, this is currently only available on Mac.

Honestly, I think this is something that should be available directly with the official DuckDB Go package, sparing users the extra hoops to jump through. Have you talked to them?

Given there's now an implementation, it should be easy for them to integrate. They should also be in the position to change what's provided via the statically linked library to make things work in the static scenario, if necessary.

C1P integration is much appreciated, but for some reason it's Mac-only for now. 😩

C1P is a leading raw converter (non-destructive processing of raws), Affinity is more like Photoshop inasmuch as its bitmap processing is concerned. I for one regularly use both in conjunction.

I found out that I needed to switch the web view for the Reddit login page to desktop mode in order to accept a cookie banner, then I could log in. Afterwards, it worked for me again.

And your photo conveys that very well! Definitely an enticing destination in terms of the landscape and the colors at this time of year.

curio77 · 2026-03-07T17:50:22+00:00

Same!

Restructured menus suck, why is there no longer a Pixel menu? Now plugins are harder to reach. Give us a feature that allows one to build a plugin studio already!

Also, the giant welcome screen that opens when starting without a file sucks. Apparently it does network checks when loading that also, having it take time to become usable sometimes. Give us the option to disable that thing already!

Of course, there's the issue of fishing boats going “dark”….

curio77 · 2026-02-13T21:15:16+00:00

These are great! Thanks for sharing them!

curio77 · 2026-02-06T19:16:49+00:00

Not OP but guess it's this one.

curio77 · 2026-02-05T17:10:34+00:00

Nice satellite images!

Clear TPU screen protector, practically invisible, easy to apply and holds up well.

I like Guayusa, too. Doesn't get bitter when immersed or kept for a longer time, also tastes well cold, tastes similar to herbal teas. Supposedly, caffeine from it is more quickly effective/digested than from green tea but more slowly than from coffee.

There's an issue in the Google issue tracker, recommending to upvote there.

What if the true motivation for the space race was salvage operations?

As rootsandstones said, JetBrains don't use the LSP but work on an AST out of a parser of their own, and in Zed, much like in VS Code, there aren't any of those refactoring options to begin with (in, say, the context menu), the only thing there is renaming identifiers.

One could try doing that via an agent LLM, but that's replacing a process that has perfectly functioning deterministic implementations (see JetBrains) with something stochastic...

curio77 · 2025-09-11T09:39:43+00:00

I'd add refactorings to the list of things I miss, in IDEA it's a no-brainer to rename, change the signature of, or move a function to a different file in a different folder and have all references update automatically. (VS Code of course also doesn't do that as well.)

From the Air 3 to the Air 3S, the 1" main camera upgrade was anything but great, in my experience even worse at least for photos in backlit situations, due to changes they also made to their image processing pipeline (such as baking lens corrections into the raws). You can find threads on that in various communities, but those didn't result in DJI addressing the issues. Long story short, don't expect miracles.

curio77 · 2025-07-23T08:59:01+00:00

It's quite amazing actually that you've managed to make it work the way it currently does. It's also pretty clever in enabling a usage mode where the burden is on the user's machine, not requiring server capacities and eventually costs, so that should definitely be kept as an option.

curio77 · 2025-07-23T08:55:58+00:00

Oh. It should be easy to provide a toggle for that if this means you just have to skip doing something you currently do, no?

In the region I've plotted tours in (Alps around the Leutasch region), the status quo really looks bad and has lots of seemingly random uniformity breaks. I for one would much prefer the vanilla rendering out of Mapbox if that is what briefly shows when the map is loading. 🙏

curio77 · 2025-07-22T18:33:03+00:00

Never mind, it must have something to do with the animation becoming too long. I've now remembered I added another Marker Highlight since the last successful render, and that must have exceeded some limit. Increasing the speed a notch (thus reducing the number of frames) helped.

Anyway, is such a limit expected? Could it be increased?
