I've been using RSS feeds for youtube channels for a few years. I don't visit the site if I can help it, I don't login, I don't "like & subscribe", I don't see any clickbait thumbnails and most important: I don't see any ads. Just newsboat & mpv.
Good recommendation indeed, the zones of thought are awesome. One of my all time favourites!
I'd go for Alpine Linux in such case.
I'll interpret non-US a bit broader as non-English. English is hugely dominant in scifi so it's often hard to find good books in other languages. I'd also love to hear the recommendations of others too! A few I read:
- (German)
- "Die Welten der Skiir" trilogy (by Dirk van den Boom): https://bookwyrm.social/book/593373/s/die-welten-der-skiir-1 is really great . He also wrote another trilogy (Die Reise der Scythe) which is also quite nice.
- "3517 Anno Domini: Wir waren Götter" by Raik Thorstad. Note that his is a primarily an M/M romance, but it has a nice dystopian scifi setting.
- (Spanish)
- "En un lugar llamado tierra" - I read this long ago, don't remember much: https://bookwyrm.social/book/979935/s/en-un-lugar-llamado-tierra
- La señal - https://bookwyrm.social/book/979918/s/la-senal
- (French) The works by Jules Verne should probably be mentioned here, despite being written well a century ago. "Vingt mille lieues sous les mers", as already mentioned in another comment, is a must-read classic.
- "Helstrid" - I have this one on my e-reader for a while but haven't properly started it yet: https://bookwyrm.social/book/1289177/s/helstrid , so I can't say if it's any good.
- (Dutch) Long ago as a teen I once read "Coriolis, de stormplaneet" and liked it: https://bookwyrm.social/book/979934/s/coriolis-de-stormplaneet
I'm using todo.txt, which is a basic plain text file following a simple syntax. I added various extensions to work with this: todo.txt-more, which does things like:
- make things accessible through a simple menu (dmenu/bemenu/rofi) system.
- time tracking functions
- synchronisation with github issues and/or e-mail
Not really, though it wouldn't be hard to add, say via a cronjob.
As a kooikerhondje owner, I approve of this post :)
I think it's already pretty amazing we have at least three people with kooikerhondjes on lemmy :) Small steps, hopefully more will join in time.
Do you ever shorten the dog breed name? To what? Kookies?
I most often say "kooikertje" (dutch, diminuitive) or "kooiker" (which technically is wrong because that would refer to the handler rather than the dog, but it'll have to do :)
Adorable :) Enjoy the puppy phase! She'll grow up quickly!
Yes, it's just sway
