I know this is from Kindergarten Cop, and it’s unfortunate that it just happens to sound like right wing rhetoric in the current political climate. So know that at least one person didn’t downvote you.

I also didn’t upvote to counteract those downvotes because it’s kind of a dumb, low-bar joke.

They’re also the company who mainstreamed the software subscription model.

It used to be that only services required subscriptions. Applications would be a one time payment. But, Adobe converted to the subscription model and because they hold a monopoly over the design space, people/companies had no choice but to go along. Once they were successful, every business in the world decided that they also wanted that sweet monthly payment and now software licensing sucks.

I refuse to even pirate Adobe products on principle.

TL;DR Fuck Adobe, use open source.

What your talking about is called a clipboard manager, and there are tons of them out there. All with varying features.

MIT gives YOU more freedom

After years of debate about licenses for my own software (that only I use...), my philosophy has been boiled down to this: MIT for libraries. GPL for programs.

This way, other developers can freely use your library, and your program remains free.

Hey, everyone! Get in here! We're building a bikeshed!

I’m sure there’s some obscure key bind to go directly there

It's just Cmd+Shift+H (for Home). The shortcuts for many of the most common locations are extremely intuitive.

  • Cmd+Shift+A (Applications)
  • Cmd+Shift+D (Desktop)
  • Cmd+Shift+L (~/Library)
  • Cmd+Shift+C (Computer)

Same with Python. I use a combination of the platformdirs and xdg libraries.

XDG gang, rise up!

Also, I know that this community and dot-files in general are Unix based, but this holds true for Windows development as well. You should be putting app files in the users' %APPDATA% directory, not their user folder. It's probably even more important since Windows doesn't autohide dot files.

The 18-30 demographic in this country is notorious for not voting. It’s been a thing for a long time. Which is part of the reason politics is so conservative*.

MTV was running the “Rock the Vote” campaign 30 years ago, in attempts to get younger people to vote. This is not a new situation at all.

*There are younger conservatives, but the younger demographics tend to skew liberal/progressive.

Wow. Since you didn't list the prices, I went to the links to check them out. Only $15-$20 to get a fully customized set of playing cards? That's way less than I expected and I think I came away with some Xmas ideas.

I was curious too, so I looked into their Github issues. Apparently, SQLite doesn't play well with k8s due to the distributed/networked nature of the environment. According to comments in the pull request, that seems to be the main driver. And apparently, Radarr already has a Postgres option.

Though, there are requests going back to 2017 to support it...just because, I guess? That person seems to just want all their data in one DB for some reason.

Hell, I'm using the free tier. Zoho has the most relaxed offerings for free tier of any email provider I've looked into.

Their Admin UI sucks though. It's almost impossible to find anything, and once you do find a link to what you need you're forwarded to some other new tool they've created in the last year. Giant pain in the ass.
