Linux user here. I don’t know of an open desktop calendar app that supports the protocol I need (CalDAV) without being one or more of:
The best compromise I’ve found so far is Thunderbird. It is bloated, but less so than any Electron app I’ve used. I find the UI annoying, but tolerable for lack of a better option. I’m thankful for an open, cross-platform tool that gets the job done, but I wish I had one that was lightweight and pleasant to use.
It would be nice to see some new work in this area. It’s a similar situation with email apps.
Tell me you’re an opinionated novice without telling me you’re an opinionated novice.

It wasn’t a recorded video. It was a live stream. They must have made it private when it ended.
I imagine he wants to avoid dependence on fuel suppliers, or pollution.
That explanation is fair enough but the headline is red meat the the EV disinformation brigade.
It’s funny how words affect people differently.
Not long ago, I posted a short, precisely-stated comment mentioning an observed fact that I had verified with a relevant authority. When I later checked in, I was surprised to find someone accusing me of spreading misinformation, and my comment removed by a moderator. It was clear that my accuser had badly misinterpreted my words. He refused to admit it or accept clarification. (And the mod had already acted, rashly.)
I re-checked what I had written about twenty times over the course of the day. There was nothing there to support the accusation. My best guess is that my phrasing or the subject matter might have touched on rough emotions from a bad experience, leading him to see what he expected to see instead of what I wrote, and triggering attack mode.
Communicating well really is complicated. It takes work on both sides, and can quickly turn into a bad time if it goes off the rails.
Because of this, I’ve been making an effort to read (and re-read) charitably, especially with people I don’t know well.
From the article:
In an EV era, tires are becoming the greatest emitters of particulate matter
The point being that electric drops tailpipe emissions to zero, making tires the next target for reducing emissions.
Nonsense.
Nothing can be lost that wasn’t had in the first place.
John Mashey wrote about this nearly 30 years ago. This Usenet thread is worth a read.

Reproducing is not stealing. Not in the dictionary sense. Not in the legal sense. Not at all.
I don’t condone selling stuff without the rights, but manipulative language like that has no place in journalism. It’s pure propaganda pushed by parasitic corporations, and it undermines our collective ability to discuss and reason about the issues.
“…third place.”
I wonder what scam he has in mind to gain money or power through this, at the expense of everyone else in the country.

Curious. When I last looked (quite a while ago) most of the tested pills were MDMA, with many containing caffeine as well. I guess it varies a lot over time.
It was basically too easy for people to post there just because, well, they could.
I expect the difference you’re describing was partly due to moderation (and lack thereof), but also partly due to the barrier to entry imposed by the forum signup process.
Unfortunately, the signup barrier cuts both ways: Despite loving high-quality discussion forums, I seldom bother participating in them these days, mainly because jumping through signup/captcha/email-validation hoops and then having to maintain yet another set of credentials for yet another site, forever, became too much hassle once I had more than a couple dozen. (I have hundreds, so I’m very reluctant to add to the pile.)
OpenID managed to solve a good deal of that hassle, but it’s mostly forgotten these days. I think well-moderated federated services have the potential to solve it completely, though. Here’s hoping.
Like the Alameda-Weehawken Burrito Tunnel?
For example: Let’s say your email is [email protected].
YSK: These domains are reserved for use in examples:
Why YSK: Using these instead of made-up domain names reduces the chance of confusing readers, eliminates the possibility of phishing attacks, and avoids sending unwanted traffic to made-up domains if they happen to belong to someone.

I hate the formatting of most forums. Reddit and Lemmy’s comment nesting is excellent.
The funny thing about this is that it’s just plain old threading, which has been around since the 1980s or earlier, with the slight variation of showing message contents directly in the thread tree instead of beside it (thanks to today’s high-res displays).
Usenet readers did threading. Email apps could do it if the developers wanted to; the required information is there. I’ll bet there’s forum software that can do it if an admin enables it.
For some reason, most corporations seem to have decided that classic message threading has no place in their interfaces. They resort to piling things into stacks or serializing them into seemingly endless scrolls. It fails to represent the structure of group discussions, and sadly, has been going on for so long that many people might not have ever seen the better alternative outside of reddit.
I have read that early DualSense units had a bug that affected battery life. If you still have yours, it might be worth updating the firmware.
