Many useful CSS examples: FreeFrontend_Com
I stumbled upon this resource and would like to recommend it: https://freefrontend.com
The resource is clean, inobtrusive, and useful. Just look at this speech bubble and a cartoon face! Done only using CSS:
Why won't my projector read the USB drive? [FIXED]
Alternatively: USB drive does not read.
Currently Testing: my todo list should contain no more than 3 elements.
I have todo lists that are hundreds of lines long. It gets ridiculous, especially considering that I'm likely to perform the task and only cross it out much later, as the execution of the task was independent of whatever was written in the todo list.
I actually have a [personal policy of "no todo lists"], see that article for an extended explanation as to why.
Why 3? See [small numbers of items for mnemonic lists]. 3 items will fit nicely into memory. Any more than that, it gets problematic to remember, much less to perform.

An interesting lightweight js library for producing lipsync animation
Check out type76 on github to see what I am talking about.
Key points:
- It's free
- Produces ASCII animation that can be recorded as video, or played back interactively
Timing of sync needs to be set manually. This thing doesn't work with other voices.
Mozilla's built-in voice is ugly and barely usable, in fact, not useable.
I recommend... https://www.naturalreaders.com/online/ for voice generation
And you can record audio output with blackhole.
The Syntax of Linux Date Command
Hello developer, you've probably landed on this page because you were looking for how to format date, on linux.
You can get the same info as below by issuing this command in the terminal: man date. It's a little boring to read, but the built-in docs are always there for you. Regardless of that, here is the syntax of the command. Note the plus sign before the text in quotes (I didn't make the rules, the linux conventions are old but consistent).

- The homepage has been translated to Spanish and Portuguese.
- Added Terms of Service and Privacy Policy in Spanish and Portuguese
