Trying browser alternatives...

#Dillo: the GOAT. Very basic, but crazy fast. Lacks modern less/vi-style keyboard navigation
Update: Dillo's keybinds are pretty flexible, and the config files is pretty easy to understand. #TIL!!
#NetSurf: a bit more compatible with the modern web, pretty comfy to use, but also lacking the keyboard navigation features I'm really used to and loving in plugins like Vimium
#LuaKit: #WebKit-based. Capable and modern, yet fairly lightweight. The scrollbar is an abomination, though. What even is that? iOS?!? Also, turning off JS turns off a lot of features in the browser, last time I tried it
#XLinks: lacks CSS, but is very usable for basic sites. Keybinds are nonstandard, but usable
#chawan: probably the best terminal browser out there I've seen so far, but sometimes you really want a graphical browser with terminal-ish features, instead

P.S., Thanks to @evgandr, I have learned that you can customize #DilloBrowser's keybinds! Fantastic stuff!!

- 24GW de nouvelles capacités nucléaires ⚛ d'ici 2050. Ces 24GW passent par la construction de 8 #EPR (sur les sites de #Sizewell, Wylfa, #Oldbury et #Moorside). Ainsi que le déploiement de #SMR, les projets de #RollsRoyce et de #GE-Hitachi sont régulièrement plébiscités en Grande Bretagne. #UK

#renouvelables #Solaire #Maroc #XLinks

Après la crise énergétique et l'explosion des factures d'#électricité⚡ dans toute l'Europe, le gouvernement britannique avait publié une feuille de route sur la politique énergétique du pays en 2022.

L'objectif :
Déployer massivement des #énergies #renouvelables et des centrales #nucléaires :
- #Solaire ☀ sur le sol anglais ou même au #Maroc avec le project #XLinks
- #Éolien offshore 🌬

The obvious answer would be to offer suitable compensation given how much benefit the rest of the country will receive from this project, but none of them are young enough to see the benefits.

'Chaos' feared over planned Morocco to Devon power cable link

The project would bring cables ashore in north Devon, connecting with a solar and wind farm in Morocco.

True that. Not sure why I don't do that, but there's not one perfect replacement, but rather, a ton of very imperfect lightweight ones.

#w3m for general searches, #xlinks for when I need images and rich text. Ostensibly #dillo and #NetSurf, but I rarely use those.

@dushman

#Firefox, #w3m, #xlinks, #NetSurf, and #Dillo, pretty much in order of decreasing frequency.

Occasionally also #falkon, #luakit, and #vimb, but quite seldom.

I'm fond of #Gecko, #WebKit, and #Web1point0 browsers, and avoid #Blink and #Electron like the plague.

‘We’ve lost a year’: political turmoil delays #UK-Sahara #energy link

#Xlinks hopes to land a strike price of £48 per #megawatt hour, lower than the £92.50 agreed for the delayed #Hinkley #Point C #nuclear power plant in Somerset.

The company argues that despite the scale of the project, it can be more reliable for the security of UK energy supplies than domestic options because UK #wind #power can be hugely variable
