Isn't this literally what Waistline is for Android? You create your own local food database (which you can automatically fetch info from Open Food Facts or USDA if desired, but not required) which lets you put in as many nutriments to track as you wish, all with graphs and information with different timelines.

No clue if there's anything like this for desktop.

You can have links open in NewPipe by setting it in Android's settings:

Settings -> Apps -> All apps -> NewPipe -> Open by default

And then set things up in there

There was definitely a lot of support for this merger - people see it as ABK's "redemption arc", and there was a lot of excitement around ABK games coming to GamePass / other platforms like Steam because of this.

Ultimately this is how people think: What is in the merger for them? And they don't think macro, but just simple things like "now I can finally get this game on [platform]"

This is true but we're talking about holidays, not Sundays.

Personally I think having a day where you can't do anything except chill is quite good honestly, would rather everything just be shut on Sunday.

It is not legally required for places to close for any of these holidays, and a large amount simply do not (whether it's the majority or not I cannot say). I have worked in many places where I don't get these days off.

On these holidays... most people go out and go places which need people working, so businesses choosing to close on these holidays is their own decision, which they should do in my opinion, it's nice to know that you and everyone you know is off. I don't really care why we're having the holiday.

Firefox fork with features like the sidebar, vertical tabs, and more. It's a vivaldi-like gecko browser, give it a shot.

While this is true, politics is unfortunately about feelings and optics, not actual facts.

People believe that Labour is antisemitic, and therefore that impression is going to stick with people even if it might wholly be false.

I'm not a fan of Starmer either but politics is a stupid game and I'm not so sure a different response would be a good idea to the public, as much as he should have said literally anything else.

In this case, I would check out the Floorp browser. It is a Firefox fork that plans to be more like Vivaldi and have lots of features, including vertical tabs.

Yes, because I want my friends (who aren't tech orientated) and interest groups (which aren't tech orientated) to be on the Fediverse.

They're always complaining about this, that, and the other about the big platforms but they have so many hang ups regarding Fedi software, so they don't use them.

A lot of it is perception, but you have to try and make it so people don't have those perceptions or break them.

Right, the point of the 4 day work week is that it will become the new standard for full time work, rather than the current 5 days.

So all your points are kind of moot, as they will ideally be addressed through cultural changes, employee expectations, or regulation.

I have worked in service/retail, and this argument doesn't make a lot of sense. Most service/retail is actually 7-day weeks, but the workers average out to 5-day weeks with rotating shifts etc.

All that would have to happen is the workers now average out to 4-day weeks, with a similar level of pay (which is what the 4-day week advocates are asking for).

The 4-day week isn't about office workers, it's about everyone.
