Yeah honestly now that I’ve got it running HP Smart isn’t bad.
No way I’m exposing it to the internet through HP’s service but I can see that I might need black toner in 2027.
(Thanks)

i used to use a two step process of Scan to Many JPGs → use some open source PDF maker I found to smash em into a PDF
The worst solution I ever did was to drop a bunch of JPGs into an RTF or whatever wordpad makes, then printed it to a PDF. fucking monstrous.

Are there any great windows GUI diff tools where you can just paste in left text and right text and diff it up?
definitely gonna be a plugin for sublime/vscode you’ll like I bet, I don’t have anything offhand to recommend

Notepad++ can do it with the Compare plugin, bit clunky but lets you paste text. diff is fundamentally not a great utility to slap a GUI on so I have no good recommendations.

That’s what I figured. I did my usual “create two text files and split diff with the gvim context menu” thing I do in Windows. Was just looking for a possibly easier way.

been using the beta and it’s solid, yeah. it was already fast but the GPU rendering puts it significantly ahead of any of the Electron-based editors in performance

New Firefox update got me fucked up because it’s a lot less immediately distinguishable from Edge so I have to do a double take to make sure I’m in the right browser for the particular thing I need to do.
I have a very good solution: Firefox Alpenglow – Get this Theme for 🦊 Firefox (en-CA)

As opposed to electron apps which are essentially websites and rendered by the CPU
not true, most electron apps use chrome’s baked in GPU rendering, and actually I imagine the sublime maintainer wound up porting in something quite similar
the latency in electron apps is just caused by how ridiculously heavyweight a browser’s text input → js flow is compared to a simple Cpp app that uses the OS APIs
I suspect that the addition of a canvas-type renderer to sublime at last was mostly to aid with scrolling and zooming at extremely high resolutions, and I doubt it was even having latency issues so much as using more CPU power than was reasonable when an operation like that is basically free on the GPU
oops
