I use Brave to test whether my websites work on Chromium browsers, but their scummy actions lately make me want to find a new Chromium browser to test with. What's the best Chromium based browser?

I use Vivaldi because of it's tab management.

I have it configured to put the tabs in a bar on the right side of the screen. That way you have full tab titles no matter how many you have open.

It's also got a tiling window manager. So you can select two tabs and tell it to split screen them within the single window of Vivaldi. Or select 3, or 4, or whatever and put them in a grid. All sorts of options.

I've got big 4k monitors, so I've grouped up some pinned tabs to always be tiled (like my email and calendar)

It's got lots of other nice tab features and just regular features, but those are the main selling ports for me personally.

babyfish-ct/jimmer: A revolutionary ORM framework for both java and kotlin.

From a cursory look (I'm on my phone), it seems like a worse version of JOOQ. But I'd be interested in seeing a comparison of their relative strengths and weaknesses.

JOOQ generates code by looking at your schema (either the real database or schema files on disk), whereas it looks like this one uses "dto" files which I'm not familiar with. But could be that it offers more control about how to handle rolling out a new change.

Effect of a gravity assist on person, or whatever, in spaceship

Reply in thread

The Expanse is my favorite series and that scene is hands down the dumbest scene in the show. The showrunners actually posted an article before it aired apologizing for it. Well, for the inaccuracies of the gravity assist, not specifically the leaning.

Overall the show is very good about being scientifically accurate compared to other sci-fi. At least when it's human technology. The alien tech doesn't play by the rules.
