There is a single row of apps that can be favorited on the bottom row of the screen for quick access. There is also a search bar that searches across apps, some direct app actions (like Firefox: New Tab), contacts, and some settings. The search bar might be able to pass the query to the default browser, but

There is not another "desktop" that can be swiped to right and left. Widgets can be added, if desired.

thankful for all the answers, I'll give it a try for a while to 'learn' me and see if I can lean into the workflow.

Optimistically speaking, the only drawback would then be I only get one screen/desktop for adding widgets – which, I guess, might be a reasonable trade-off.

KISS is probably my favorite "app" on Android. I don't need to remember where an icon is located, just a few taps (sometimes even just one) of its name in the search bar and it'll show up immediately. It's amazingly fast and does just what I need it to.

Why would I need an app to do that though, when it's at least one click less to just open the app drawer and start typing into its search input? Seems like it's the same results but without the app and extra click to open it. And the app drawer search remembers my results (I don't know if this app does) which reduces the number of letters I need to type for future searches.

On Android, you can download replacement launchers in the form of an App. That app replaces your default launcher.

In this case, KISS is the app drawer, because it is the default UI of your phone once installed and configured. It's a really good app drawer at that!

This isn't a traditional app, its a launcher

I had not heard of Parakeet until earlier today with Handy [1].

I've previously had good luck with FUTO's keyboard and it's companion voice input app [2] on my Android, both of which are local-only after downloading the model. I'll have to try this one out and compare them.

Interesting. Du you know which model they use? Yeah would be curious to hear your experience comparing them.

From their repo, it looks like OpenAI Whisper?

Language support

FUTO Voice Input is currently based on the OpenAI Whisper model, and could theoretically support all of the languages that OpenAI Whisper supports. However, in practice, the smaller models tend to not perform too good with languages that had fewer training hours. To avoid presenting something worse than nothing, only languages with more than 1,000 training hours are included as options in the UI:

<List of supported languages>

Language support and accuracy may expand in the future with better optimization and fine-tuned models. Feedback is welcomed about language-related issues or general language accuracy.

At my $DAYJOB, we have a bunch in-house saltstack states for applying the CIS benchmarks for Ubuntu, Debian, and CentOS. I never looked into it, but I always wondered if I'd be allowed to publish them publicly.

Well there is one available for oscap at https://github.com/ComplianceAsCode/content

You can also use light handkerchiefs that fall slower to the ground than balls, pins, or flaming chainsaws.

I forgot about the handkerchief trick to slow things down.

I wrote this migration tool when we moved years back from a locally hosted Bitbucket instance to Gitlab.com. I haven't tested it recently, but happy to take merge requests to address gaps.

No one mentioned it to him during production, so he didn't know.

I've been selfishly wondering the same thing. The Frame is on my shortlist (as long as the price wasn't too crazy).

We at $DAYJOB had an internal git server that was literally what the parent of this comment mentioned (`git init --bare`). It became a little cumbersome, so when I stumbled across forgejo, I was happy to see that importing the existing git repos was a breeze, just had to point the config to look at the existing git storage root and assign groups and permissions via the GUI.

Not related to the main conversation, but I'm still mad that the DVD menu of that movie gave away the reveal before the movie even started (showed someone limping and then suddenly not limping anymore as they walked down the street). There was no real twist ending since I knew the guy was lying about something.

(Vagueness intended to avoid spoilers for that 1 in 10,000 someone who hasn't seen the movie)

That spoiler should be a crime.

A crime with all the usual... er
