  • Just a heads up, glide typing requires loading a closed source library in Heliboard. Instructions are in the readme and it's pretty straightforward, but it's something to be aware of.

  • HeliBoard let's you move the cursor by swiping on the space bar. Is that what iOS does?

  • [Android] How is Florisboard not popular?

    Jump

  • Word suggestions/spell checking are not included in the current releases and are a major goal for the v0.6 milestone.

    I've been watching Florisboard since before that text read "v0.5". It's a good keyboard but can't be a daily driver for me without that.

  • Heck there have been people arrested for posting Trump or Charlie Kirk comments unedited.

    In Australia?

  • Matter 1.5 update brings support for smart home cameras

    Jump

  • I had to make that technology decision recently and decided on Zigbee. I don't see any real advantage to Matter other than future support, and current support is much much lower than Zigbee.

    The "seamless internet/cloud connection" is a massive turnoff. Products proudly advertising Matter and then hiding Thread vs WiFi is a pain. And frankly only IKEA really seems to be offering anything Matter with AU plugs and they're super coy about it so I'm never confident about what I'm getting.

  • PSA syncthing-fork has changed owners

    Jump

  • Check what version of Syncthing-fork you're running. IIRC there was a major breaking change between 1.x and 2.x, so they published a new app to make sure people only upgraded deliberately.

    AFAICT F-droid hasn't built the new app (yet?). The redirect is on GitHub's end. You can also install older versions through F-Droid if you prefer (but not 1.x, I don't believe those are published anymore)

  • There's a lot of subjective differences between Word and Writer.

    Image placement is not one of them. Writer gives you the anchor and asks exactly where you would like it put.

  • What are “rusted-on” Labor voters thinking ?

    Jump

  • The ETS was widely considered to be worse than doing nothing for climate issues. Rudd's government refused to talk to third parties over the ETS, and exclusively negotiated with the coalition. A year later the Gillard government actually talked to the cross bench and much, much better policy was passed.

    The HAFF was passed, but only after the cross bench managed to eke out amendments to make it actually commit to doing something.

    Both of those policies started as pure virtue signaling, and ended up doing material good only in spite of Labor.

  • What you need to know about why house prices aren't coming down

  • Unfortunately, it matters less what people want than what these people want

    Of the 227 sitting MPs and senators, only 12 declared no property ownership.

    Several senators are on the list, although we cannot be sure this provides an exhaustive picture because the property holdings of senators’ spouses are not published.

    Some in this group declared a financial interest in trusts but were not required to disclose any property held in those trusts.

  • I literally cannot understand how Outlook is so awful and unpleasant to use. Constant pauses, regular freezes and a search that will show a document I sent to myself five years ago regardless of search terms but won't surface the perfect match I received yesterday, in the world's most prominent email client.

    The only worse software I have to interact with on a daily basis is Adobe's PDF reader, which gives me five popups within one minute of opening it and takes over a minute to do a text search in a five page document.
