my reading addon is waiting approval for firefox and chrome im so nervous. please approve my addon i think it could help at least one other person as much as it's helped me...

[strike-another-match]

day 2 of no addon approval. come on all it does is style <p> elements... the humble styler...

[strike-another-match]

ITS APPROVED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

it's an accessibility tool i made for myself because i needed it, which basically lets you focus on one sentence at a time as you read large blocks of texts (books, articles, etc.). it offers different highlight styles, some of which use gradients to help guide your eyes from the start of the sentence until the end. you can move forward and back pressing the buttons or using ALT + left and right arrow keys

if you use it and you find it helpful please tell me about it so i can have the motivation to keep improving it. i love knowing people use my tools

if you're subscribed to Microsoft word, you probably received an email recently saying they're upping their prices. Like, a lot. ($9.99/month instead of $6.99)

guess what though? you can log into your account, click Cancel Subscription, and get the option to continue your subscription at the same price WITHOUT their bullshit AI.

That's right, the new, higher price is actually a different subscription that includes AI that everyone is being opted into by force! What a cool and fun product that clearly everyone wants.

you can also choose to buy Word 2024 without AI for a single lump sum that will be yours in perpetuity, with no updates, for one computer.

Check your subscription if you need Word for work! Don't get duped into paying for something you might not even want

[ralfmaximus]

Also, reminder that Word 2007 still installs just fine on Windows 11 and can do damn near everything Word 2024 does.

Full Office 2007 installation media here.

With these added bonuses:

No frequent updates that prevent you from using the thing while it updates

No AI grammar/spell check (it's all local, baby!)

No nag screens about sharing everything with OneDrive

Runs screamingly fast on modern computers

Free to use, since Microsoft doesn't give a shit

The only downside I can recall is that working with PDF files is a bit frustrating and requires additional steps. But if all you need is DOC or DOCX it's great.

did it start downpouring while I was at the botanical garden? ...yes, buuut it still looked very pretty and luckily I brought a poncho so my camera stayed dry. and you'll never guess but I have in fact just been reading more papers (/s)

I started studying the basics of philosophy. I am currently reading A Brief History of Thought: A Philosophical Guide to Living by Luc Ferry, and it's pretty good for beginners! ​​

Looking up from my desk at the swirling lines of Oxford's Radcliffe Camera - the first round library in England 📚.

Last week was dreadful, this week is wild but I feel such comfort with my friends. Every word I put down feels inadequate to describe how I am feeling and what is happening right now.

Buried in art history books. My thesis "preparation" paper received 10/10 and it's given me motivation to continue with the rest. I hope everyone's doing okay ♡

Beautiful spring days... I've spent a lot of time outside this week and this changes everything. Life is so much more beautiful with sunshine, green leaves and movement outside. I'm trying to make things that make me happy and it's working well.

Yesterday, I spent an hour reading and the day before I went on a 5h hike. I bought a pottery wheel and hopefully I'll try it out tonight.

officially finished the spring term :>

I have a little more than a week until summer term starts and I’ll be taking intro to chemistry and continuing my piano lessons. I’ve also been volunteering at a plant nursery over the past month and I might also continue that through the summer :}

Monday 28th April

I spent the whole day in libraries reading about Hellenistic ruler portraits, so it was a nice day. And it was so sunny outside. These are some pictures of my favourite library, Duke Humfrey’s. It’s so beautiful!
