Re: Jarte - word processor

You start to act and sound like a spammer. The comment is very generic and you didn't even read the post above yours I think. Your other posts are also not very helpful. Wouldn't be because you want to plug your website would it? Yeah looks like it's just a bot poster pushing a website. Thanks for ...

Re: PeerBlock - block anti-file sharing, ads, spyware, etc.

Would folks be interested in a package of PeerBlock Portable that automatically downloads the linked list on maybe a daily basis? Yes! Agreed. I think that would be very useful. I've seen a few variations on what Peerblock was supposed to represent, usually around a HOSTS file manager. I think Peer...

That looks amazing, thanks for posting. I'd seen other posts about this but missed the regular expressions and saved searches bits.

Re: Knowlege management / connected markdown editors (Electron-based)

You may want to edit your post and correct the link All fixed, thanks for that. I have a ton of boilerplate forum posts built up over the years that I use and then fill in the blanks. I didn't follow through with this one. Thanks for sharing your thoughts and experiences on these as the choice of t...

Oddly their KCleaner program was among my favorites, but SuMO definitely was one of my most-used programs when I was scouring sites for updates.

Sad news.

Re: Obsidian - markdown editor

Supposedly there's a portable mode available via an interesting "Enigma protector" packaging software that reminds me of VMWare Thinstall Sounds like overkill? Doesn't the trick posted by hamasaki https://www.portablefreeware.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=105368#p105368 work as it is electro...

Re: Obsidian - markdown editor

Update : Obsidian 1.4.5 came out a few days ago (2023-08-31). This program has completely taken over my workflow and unified a lot of note taking tools I have. I still use Zettlr for quickly importing things like MS Word and HTML into markdown, but Obsidian's unifying content and customization has ...

Re: oldcomputers

Found some gems in here that I feel sure are only something that's interesting to me but I'll post it anyhow ... --- First, I have a running theory with mixed evidence that writing good tech manuals is a lost art.

Re: WhatsApp

E-mail seems to trigger higher quality in both, style and content. That's interesting -- I seem to have heard a lot of grumping on how people want to use something other than email, but maybe it's *because* of what you describe here. We expect a little better from people when they send us an email ...

I actively avoid Whatsapp for a long list of reasons and I don't expect them to change. Downtime, security, privacy, as well as portability.
