I have been looking for doctors, saving numbers, emails and working hours in a onlyoffice spreadsheet but its not really readable at a glance. Looked around for an address books app but neither gnome calendar nor Thunderbird meet my needs.

The features I would like in an address-book( not all of them are strictly need) are:

-custom fields. -ability to customize address fields to include stuff like landmarks, floors and district(could also do with removing stuff like Postal box or countries). -custom labels for fields like phone numbers(WhatsApp,telegram) or instant messaging(discord)

Not a priority

-add notes, maybe even add multiple notes to contact. -calendar integration, with ability to add dates to contacts that can include notes.

Did try cardbook Thunderbird add-on but it is mostly unresponsive. On gitlab, the last comits was from 4 years ago and the last released version was from 2018, dispite that, Thunderbird addon store still keeps receiving new version, even in 2026 and issues are still being opened with developer responding,even a few hours ago.

All to say, I think it went close source

Anyhow, I am not opposed proprietary apps necessary(would still pick open source if its an option) just wanted to note the add-on being close source(I think) for people in case anyone wants to know.

 

Looking for a link archiving tool to save links that i have no intention of viewing anytime soon. it needs to be able to sort bookmarks by folders and sub-folders, tags are just not my thing. It doesn't have to be anything crazy but it needs to be offline first and have the ability to export bookmarks in a readable format

Part of it is that i have limited storage in terms of what i can archive, so the next best thing is save the links to YT and websites. If they are gone in the future, it is what it is. I also want my browser bookmark manager to be clutter free without the pressure of removing bookmarks all the time.

Also, i don't want to use any note talking apps, there are too many links and it just defeat the point of the app.

Haven't to me in Sudan for a me, and yes it is an addiction, but you do cope, its just you keep reaching for the phone, sometimes without realizing it.

Also it's fucking boring

Same here and same client

 

Does the speed/location of repos factor into your choose of distro? I am in Egypt and while linux mint repos speeds are fine when updating and installing here, fedora and manjaro are incredibility slow, manjaro especially is the slowest, like maybe 30 minutes or more slow for an install that takes a few minutes in linux mint

I am assuming that ppl in the USA/Europe don't have this problem. Does anyone else have this same issue.

 

In stories, especially creepypasta, its sounds more like a magical contract than a piece of paper

Like if a private organisation hired you to kill people, a NDA doesn't somehow make that legal and you can't get sued for breaking the contract.

So, what is the legal extent of NDA?

Came here to say, this is a day old account, so probably a bot.

If you find my sanity, that would be nice

This is a 3 day account, looks like an LLM not too

Their account is also 1 day old with only this post, this feels like one of those Am I The Asshole posts

I haven't related to a feeling so much in recent time

I power the computer, launch terminal(htop), text editor, obsidian, webapps, firefox, reddit(webapps)lemmy(webapps),tumblr(webapps) youtube(webapps) and all their bookmark managers and then 20 mins in, the computer crashes

I recognize i have a problem here but i am not sure what exactly it is and what the solution look like. How do you all browse on PCs and how do you deal with the fear of missing out(what i assume is happening here)? How much is too much?

It leads to aimless scrolling and sometimes reading if I’m motivated.

This made me realize just how much YT doesn't know what it wants to be, with introduction of YT shorts and other social media features.

God, so much this, and thinking you are crazy for thinking that while also knowing on surface level, a lot of other people feel the same way

that staments doesn't make sense, since presume their cousins just immigrated to the US.

then their is that third language in whatsapp, where they use english and numbers to spell out Arabic words

 

I was reading a comic,called Space Boy on Webtoon and part of it talks about flavors of people. I remember how my anxiety taste like and tried to looking it up to no avail, what comes up is the metallic taste and is not what the i am looking for

My anxiety tastes sour and bitter and is very itchy, its happens on the upper end of my chest, which is where i mostly taste it. when i say taste i mean how look someone would taste smell, despite not the taste feel in their tongue.

 

As some with ADHD, my interest fluantuats wildly. How does an average person choose a job thats suppose to be for life and not worry about loss of interest, let alone some with ADHD.

 

I been thinking about this for a while. First with a the significant other of a hero without powers or a helping role, where we see their day to day life and how they feel insignificant next to the hero and all the action that take place away from them for the most. See different relations, ones where the hero over compensates for short-comings, one where they are toxic or even abuse panther in their. Mentors for heroes, who start the story with as mentors, mother/parents of heroes. Also when i mean full story, i don't mean a single episode in a series or a poltline in a book, but a fully completed story centered around them alone.

some archs i thought of:

-the comedic relief -the powerhouse(usually written as dumb) -the villain(that is not just a serial killer) -the future seer/oracle

Feel free to add media/stories use the arch for the full stories

 

I understand encryption in mediums outside digital stuff like letters or Morse code, but how does a computer OS works when its code is scrambled, and how is the key stored and used to verify the enryption passphrase without some pluck it out and use it.

Encrypted letters don't have to carry the key or verify it.
