I did, and I just don’t “feel it”. Those is all great software but none of them really fits my specific use case. They all seem to be deeply connected with desktop environments or being just plain old font managers.

My dream is something like an image viewer, but for fonts. A bit like display from ImageMagick does it, but more like this.

Sounds like you have an awesome dad!

how is a 36-year-old supposed to act?

How ever they want!

So, what dependencies do the DE font viewers actually pull in?

The ones specific to that DE, which I do not want.

Mmmh, nope, only the normal version available.

The Flatpak version (or KCharSelect in general) unfortunately ignores the font file given on command line.

KCharSelect

It just installs kcharselect … and figuratively half of KDE :)

There seems to be a Flatpak available I’ll check out later when I have time to install hundreds of megabyte of depending other KDE-specific Flatpaks …

As far as I know, GNOME and KDE have had font viewers since time immemorial.

I was talking specifically about web fonts and web font websites which help me not the slightest with my use case.

Ideally something that allows me to see the characters in a table, sorted by character blocks, like in the LibreOffice “Insert Special Characters” dialog, so that I’m not limited to some predefined text but being able to see all characters.

These types of apps became fairly irrelevant with the advent of Web Fonts and sites that already do all of this.

That’s my point. All of those stupid modern things do not solve my issue of just double-clicking a local ttf file in my file manager to see some text rendered in that font. That is literally all I want to do.

The fact that you’re asking for whatever tool to not use something like QT or GTK

I don’t really care what graphics toolkit is used. I just don’t want something that is heavily interconnected with any type of desktop environment due to not wanting to install a metric shit-ton of dependencies 😉

selfhost.eu offers dynamic DNS which works perfectly fine with my router, using their API access as documented by them. It also works perfectly well with Let’s Encrypt integrated in Nginx Proxy Manager.

• can handle .at domains
• is not Cloudflare
• is registrar and name server
• is European (Germany)
• supports Nginx Proxy Manager

They’re in the market since 2001, I use them since ca. 2010 and never had any issues. Their website looks ancient, almost historic. But it’s functional.

So it’s basically just milking the same franchise with sequels or remakes, the usual Marvel slop and the Disney trash?

My server’s uptime is roughly the time between two kernel updates. On my desktop PC it’s mostly 4-10 hours depending on what I do during the day.

So wild that Facebook still is a thing.

It will “allow” apps? Those “apps” are an integral part of the operating system without a way for users to turn it off constantly and reliably.

Someone else will continue selling RAM and making money.

I’ve seen someone with a pool noodle sticking off the side of their bike at the minimum passing distance for cars.

A better and less passive-aggressive solution to make cars pass at the minimum distance is psychology.

If you ride your bike on the outer right part of the road, car drivers tend to squeeze trough on the same lane because the center line also is a “psychological barrier” they do not want to cross. And “since there is enough space on my lane, I stay in my lane”.

The solution here is simple: Do not drive on the outer part of the road. Imagine you’re in a car on the passenger seat. Ride your bike where you would sit in relation to the road. You’re still on the right side of the right lane but this gives not enough space to squeeze through, and when not being able to squeeze through, drivers tend to properly use the opposite lane for passing by.

… so basically ChatGPT with a specific prompt.

The AI-powered app […] simply uses its language model to generate responses based on a wide corpus of biblical and religious texts.

This is the only valid answer!

The URLs mentioned in their blog article all have a wrong certificate (different host name).

I am sure if they fix it Google’s system would reclassify the sites as safe.
