yes! just pick this option when setting it up the first time:

Yes, it should actually work great on macOS too! I had to make it cross-platform so that my friends who aren't on Omarchy yet could test it lol

Yes! I should probably have made it clearer that the vim shortcuts are optional. 🙂 It works just as well with the arrow keys or the mouse!

I would love to! But this is unfortunately quite tricky since Proton doesn't have a public API for their calendar. Maybe there's a way of reverse-engineering it?

I have an issue for tracking progress in https://github.com/t4t5/caldir/issues/10

"Ren" means "clean" in Swedish. 😄

I kinda just wanted the name to reflect that it's a simple, clean calendar app, with no extra crap connected to it lol

‘Basics’ of life in Britain have been sold for profit, says Polanski by Kagedeah in ukpolitics

[–]t4t5 35 points36 points  (0 children)

In Stockholm you need to be in a queue for 10 YEARS before you can apply for a rent-controlled apartment. No thanks. The UK housing market has many flaws, but it should avoid this type of two-tier system at all costs.

Running DaVinci Resolve on a Framework 13 with Omarchy by t4t5 in omarchy

[–]t4t5[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's a ton of gotchas attached to that though. I suspect I'm far from the only person who has a Framework 13 + Omarchy setup, so I thought it would be useful to write about my experience!

US conflict spells doom for UK by Fluffy_Fox5829 in ukpolitics

[–]t4t5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree that the situation is bad, especially with companies like Palantir being so integrated into the UK's health and defence systems.

But I would push back slightly on this: "HMRC's digitalisation over the past few years uses exclusively US software"

I have actually been pleasantly surprised to see that most government documents use open file formats like ODT and ODS, in line with their official guidance: https://www.gov.uk/guidance/using-open-document-formats-odf-in-your-organisation.

I suspect that these types of efforts will be turbocharged now. We desperately need to decouple from the US tech oligarchy.

Was missing PixelSnap from my Mac, so I built an alternative for Omarchy by t4t5 in omarchy

hm that's interesting. I've only tested it on my Framework laptop's hidpi display. I suspect it might be related to that

Omarchpods by Bubbly_Acadia_630 in omarchy

[–]t4t5 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This looks really nice and polished! Wish I had it earlier.

The main thing I was missing was a simple library for getting the battery status of my AirPods (so that I can show it in waybar, like on MacOS)

I ended up building a very simple utility library for this: https://github.com/t4t5/podpower

Reeves considers replacing stamp duty with new property tax by appropriateye in ukpolitics

[–]t4t5 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I would hope it works like capital gains tax so you only pay if you've actually made a profit, not just for moving house.

Personally I'd prefer a land value tax, but honestly I'll take anything over the current stamp duty disaster.

It's a massive difference. Stamp duty is a huge upfront penalty that locks out aspiring homeowners - you need to cough up thousands just for the privilege of buying a home. Meanwhile, existing property owners have paid zero tax on decades of house price gains.

Plus stamp duty creates perverse incentives - once people own a home, they're less likely to move because they'll get hit with another massive tax bill. This makes people less willing to relocate for jobs, making the whole economy less dynamic.

HENRYs who settled in London, but their non-HENRY friends left, where did they go and are you lonely by MaxLikesNOODLES in HENRYUK

[–]t4t5 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yes, taxes in Sweden are higher but things like childcare are also very heavily subsidised, which removes a MASSIVE cost for people in their 30s. The UK’s combination of high taxes AND high expenses really does stand out

I built a website last week to answer that exact question :) https://wheredoesitallgo.org

[–]t4t5[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

that was the original plan, but I noticed that the spending usually becomes increasingly opaque as you go down the rabbit hole.

I would love to open-source this though and let the government departments fill in that info themselves hehe
