I also use RSS, mostly for news but I‘m also subscribed to a couple of blogs. For me it‘s better than having to use a bunch of proprietary apps.

Looks cool. Do you use it for any other platform besides RSS?

Twin Perfect. I love their Silent Hill content. I was hoping on a review of the Silent Hill 2 remake, but nothing so far.

It‘s important to have the technology sorted out, as nothing kills my creative drive more than having to deal with technical issues. A distraction free experience is a good thing for writing, which is why paper is still very popular, at least for journaling.

I‘m a bit sceptical if a real Apple employee would come to lemmy to ask users about their experience , but I‘ll take any chance so this can get fixed:

Sometimes, notifications for upcoming calender events just don‘t work on iOS , which is very frustrating. It‘s completely random, whether they will show up or not. I‘ve gone through every troubleshooting step with no luck. Weirdly, I never have this issue with reminders.

I‘ve had this problem since iOS 26, I can‘t say if it is fixed with the newest version (26.4.1).

The question is, what will be your limiting factor: CPU or disk I/O? Parallel processing doesn't do much good if the workers have to wait on the disk to deliver more data. I'd start with an async architecture, where the program can do its processing while it is waiting on more data.

A few days before time change (DST) windows would put a little reminder in the calendar widget on the task bar. I always thought that was a really nice feature. Unfortunately, no other operating system does that (as far as I know).

Currently learning french, but it‘s only good enough for very casual smalltalk at the moment. I don‘t find it as difficult to learn as some people said.

I don't know what it's like in Paris, but here in my area (germany) they had to discontinue the Chinese course, because not enough people signed up for it. So for what it's worth, I don't think you need to worry about taking someones seat. The language course I'm visiting at the moment (currently learning french) is really nice and welcoming, so no need to be shy :-)

I'm writing a script that finds filenames in a directory that only differ in case. Since I'm working with filesystems that are case insensitive sometimes, this is a pain to deal with and I'd rather rename the few files. But first I'll have to find them 😉. Now, there might be some tool already that does this, but I enjoy the challenge.

Hey, nice to hear from you again. I haven't written a lot of journal entries in the last couple months, but I'm very into reading at the moment.

Personally, I think the logo is fine. If I proposed to change it, I'd better come up with something on my own and I'm not very handy with vector graphics software :-D
