First time I hear about this and I'll definitely try it out. It looks awesome!

One question though, does the server need to be publicly accessible or does the app do it's tracking locally and then saves it on the server when I get home again? I didn't see that in the docs but I've not looked very deep into that so sorry if I have missed it.

But the employers want their employees to use it, (because of some unfounded promises about performance boosts). So I don't really get your point.

Well that is such a unique case. I've never heard any employer being okay with clocking hours that were not actually worked. And in your case it's essentially just a raise with extra steps.

Well that's just working-hour fraud, you can do that even without using AI.

What a stupid take. Why should employee then even consider using it, when the cost for it would directly reduce their salary?

But Obsidian or Emacs would already solve the part with extracting the content. You then have the files locally on your machine and can do whatever with it, if you don't want to use either for the search.

Edit: tre-agrep or fzf could do the trick.

I use Obsidian for all my notes and Obsidian Web Clipper works really well. The whole webpage is converted to markdown and stored in a plain text file. It also has a CLI though I've not tried that out yet and don't know it's capabilities.

Another option I've read about, but not tried out myself yet, is using the org-web-tools plugin for Emacs org-mode. This ofc converts it not to markdown but to org files. You can then search it however you like. Emacs probably has nearly unlimited options there or you just use grep.

Regarding the "clever" auto-tagging though.. Idk. Both options can probably connected to a local LLM that is capable to interpret the content and extract more or less meaningful tags. But having the full page contents at my disposal is most of the time enough to quickly find what I'm looking for.

On first glace I thought I'd be looking at the UI of a streaming service. This is so awful

I need to look it up again, but I read about a study that showed that the results improve if you tell the AI that your job depends on it or similar drastic things. It's kinda weird.

I had a professor in university who didn't use the grid layout and even had icons overlapping each other to fit more stuff on the desktop. It was wild

You probably won't gain much right now, but as the development on Organic Maps has stalled, you might encounter bugs not being fixed, no new features etc. If it stays like that, you'd probably want to switch at some point.

If you wish to increase your sadness and dread a little more, have a look at this list

I can totally understand that. In case you still want to give it a chance, I can highly recommend EndeavorOS. It's basically pre-styled, pure Arch. But it has a welcome dialog, where you have a warning banner at the top if you need to be careful regarding an update. This directly links you to their Gitlab and forum with the steps you'd need to take to not break anything. This saved me multiple times already and I never broke my system, despite not even reading the Arch RSS feed or changelogs.

Besides the EndeavorOS forum is waaaay friendlier compared to the Arch one.

This was exactly the same for me. Every Manjaro install I had broke sooner or later because of these dependency issues. After my 3rd or 4th try, I decided to switch to EndeavorOS which is extremely stable for me and serves me well for a couple of years now.

I have a Garmin Fenix 7s. This watch also has torx screws on the back. I wear it day and night for 3-4 years now, even when working in the garden etc. and the screw heads are completely clean. So I don't think it's an issue.

And if you need it in a browser, there is Collabora, which exists as a paid business version with support or a free non-support version, that can easily be deployed with Nextcloud. Another alternative would be CryptPad.

If you also need your mails in your browser, there are multiple providers like mailbox.org that offer mail encryption even through the online mail interface.

That statement of him is not entirely wrong. But we humans have a very powerful bio computer that is perfectly tuned to process those visual inputs in realtime. Until a comparable performance is possible, removing LIDAR is very stupid.

You shouldn't install software from someone you don't trust anyway because even if the installation process is save, the software itself can do whatever it has permission to.

"So if you trust their software, why not their install script?" you might ask. Well, it is detectable on server side, if you download the script or pipe it into a shell. So even if the vendor it trustworthy, there could be a malicious middle man, that gives you the original and harmless script, when you download it, and serves you a malicious one when you pipe it into your shell.

And I think this is not obvious and very scary.

It's just a "frontend" to let you use the official Play Store without a Google account
