Very nice serif typography, the only problem at the moment is that it doesn't exist in italic... I hope it will come soon.

A good free alternative to Trajan. It has no lowercase, but can be used for titling for example.

I really like static site generators like Pelican, Hugo etc... My problem is that you have to use it with command lines in a terminal and you have to remember the commands to use it which is not at all easy for a normal person, at least it's not easy for me, every time I forget the commands and so I don't use the tool.

It would be great to have a kind of graphical interface to generate your blog on your computer, and then a big send button or synchronize with your FTP server to put the article online for example. Thus, almost anyone would be able to easily use these tools, which are so much simpler and lighter to deploy than a wordpress for example.

Sometimes I listen to a podcast and want to share an excerpt of an interview, or a short passage with friends. Unfortunately, you have to do several long and tedious operations, download the podcast, cut it, host it somewhere and then share it. It's long and it discourages to do it.

It would be great to have a tool to easily share an excerpt of podcast on the networks.

You would just have to indicate the beginning and the end of the clip, then it would generate a link so that you can share it on social networks or blogs.

I don't think it exists... at least I haven't found anything.

Ideally the tool should not retrieve the original .mp3 file to edit it, cut it, save it on a cloud... what would be really great is that it would use the link to the original file and that it would simply be a player that would follow the "start" and "end" playback indications of the extract. So we wouldn't need to host large amounts of .mp3 on a cloud.

It's very annoying to click on a link that takes us to an article containing a paywall. Unfortunately we never know it in advance. We generate traffic for the sites, we expose ourselves to advertising and we can't read the article, it's a waste of time. It would be nice to have some kind of add-on for browsers that would detect if the links refer to a paid article, and that would warn us before clicking on it by adding via CSS a kind of small symbol in front of the link.

For example: 🛑 https://link.tld

We could imagine that when a user goes to a web page of an article that contains a paywall, he could click on a button of the add-on to report the article, and thus enrich a collectively built database.

The SORA typeface was designed to capture SORAMITSU's spirit and heritage and is highly optimized for user interfaces. The outcome is a type family with cues of low-resolution aesthetics and early screen typography but without nostalgia, as every decision was considered towards the crisp digital environment of today. The particularly big x-height combined with evidently generous counters turns the family into a convenient tool for app and web interfaces, where clarity and effectiveness at any size is an imperative. Therefore giving us a neutral, yet distinctive, sans serif typeface with excellent legibility across various mediums.

The SORA typeface is an open-source project and available for download and use following the Open Font License (OFL).

It could be interesting to have an application that once launched would analyze the live video or audio of the smartphone and if it detects rhythms or variations (for example a flash that pulses • • • — — — • • • ), the application would translate it into text "SOS".

The application would also have a writing mode where you could write and it would translate the text into flash pulses or audio sounds.

We could communicate in the night without wifi, without bluetooth and without network ^^

"It is our mission to put you back in control over your data. While not everybody can run their own Nextcloud server, hundreds of thousands of people do. Making it easier for them to keep their data safe is important. If you are one of them, Nextcloud Backup is for you!

With Nextcloud Backup, you can find a friend or family member who has their own Nextcloud server and ask them to create a user account for you. Then, you can setup Backup to regularly store compressed, encrypted backups of your data on their Nextcloud server! If something goes wrong, you can restore your Nextcloud, or even bring back individual files and folders. Of course, it might make sense to, in exchange, create an account for them on your server to store their backups!

What makes Nextcloud Backup different from other backup solutions? Its ease of use! If you are using a backup technology that you are comfortable with, keep using it. Nextcloud Backup is for those users who have found it difficult and time consuming to setup another backup solution."

I don't know if you already know the Sponsor Block add-on ( https://sponsor.ajay.app/ ) that allows users to tag the parts of a youtube video that contain sponsored content but also the self-promotional parts, the long useless introductions or the beginning and end credits. Then other users who watch these videos and who also have Sponsor Block will see their video player automatically skip the tagged parts of the video and this is sometimes a huge time saver ^^

Before I knew about this add-on, I had thought about something similar for podcasts, but it doesn't exist as far as I know. I had proposed a way out on AntennaPod's Github ( https://github.com/AntennaPod/AntennaPod/issues/3382 ) at the time but the developers told me that it was difficult and that they did not plan to create their own web service.

Being a big consumer of podcasts for years and seeing the progressive arrival of ads I thought it might be a good idea to build a similar service.

Nimbus Sans L is a version of Nimbus Sans using Adobe font sources. It was designed in 1987. The family includes 17 fonts in 5 weights and 2 widths, with Nimbus Sans L Extra Black only available in condensed roman format.

A subset of Nimbus Sans L, which includes regular and bold weight fonts in all widths and styles, were released under the GPL and AFPL in Type 1 format in 1996 and LPPL in 2009, and is one of several freely licensed fonts offered by URW++.

Although the characters are not exactly the same, Nimbus Sans L has metrics almost identical to Helvetica and Arial. Nimbus Sans L is one of the Ghostscript fonts, a set of free alternatives to the 35 basic PostScript fonts (which include Helvetica).

It is a standard typeface in many GNU/Linux distributions. It was used as default font in OpenOffice.org Calc and Impress in some GNU/Linux distributions (e.g. Ubuntu - up to version 8.10; since Ubuntu 9.04 the default font was changed to Liberation Sans).

The package contains the most recent version of the TeX Gyre Termes family of fonts in the PostScript Type 1 and OpenType formats. TeX Gyre Termes is based on the URW Nimbus Roman No9 L kindly released by URW++ Design and Development Inc. under GFL (independently of the GPL release accompanying Ghostscript). The Vietnamese glyphs were added by Han The Thanh.

TeX Gyre Termes can be used as a replacement for the renowned Times (new) Roman font (designed by Stanley Morison together with Starling Burgess and Victor Lardent for the London newspaper “The Times”; it was first issued by the Monotype Corporation in 1932 -- see the article by Charles Bigelow for interesting details: http://www.truetype-typography.com/articles/times.htm).

The package contains the most recent version of the TeX Gyre Heros family of fonts in the PostScript Type 1 and OpenType formats. TeX Gyre Heros is based on the URW Nimbus Sans L kindly released by URW++ Design and Development Inc. under GFL (independently of the GPL release accompanying Ghostscript). The Vietnamese glyphs were added by Han The Thanh.

TeX Gyre Heros can be used as a replacement for a popular font Helvetica, also known as Swiss (prepared by Max Miedinger with Eduard Hoffmann, 1957, at the Haas Type Foundry).
