I mean, visiting Shakespeare & Co _is_ a very touristy thing :) They have a nice selection, but it feels a bit like a well-curated tourist trap these days (pre-covid, anyway...), with a large part of the visitors mainly there to take a selfie.
Regarding Joyce: the present Shakespeare & Co is not the one of Joyce and Hemingway. That was a different store at a different location with a different owner, closed in 1941. The present one (1951-) wasn't called Shakespeare and Company until 1964. But for sure it also had its fair share of famous patrons.
My #1 recommendation for English books (new and used) in Paris would be The Abbey Bookshop, which is not far from Shakespeare & Co. Run by a friendly Canadian guy since 1989. It's quite an experience.
They've got a tiny little branch in Vienna too. Great selection and incredibly well structured for browsing. I came out with a stack of books I'd have never found otherwise.
Switched from Gmail to Fastmail in 2008. No regrets. Haven't considered anything else since (and didn't notice these recent problems I now read about). Email hosting is something I'd want to change very rarely. Track record counts for a lot; good-AND-profitable email hosting is tough, and I generally wouldn't trust any entity [in this space] that's been around for <5 years. Fastmail's been at it for 20+ years now, and I'm reasonably sure I don't have to worry about changing anything for at least another 5-10 years.
Some of the latest models in the "classic" lines with one or more RAM slots: P14s Gen 2 AMD/Intel (a.k.a. T14 Gen 2 AMD/Intel); T15 Gen 2 / P15s Gen 2; P15 Gen 2; T15p Gen 2; P1 Gen 4; X1 Extreme Gen 4. Plus some of the slightly more "budget" ones like L14 Gen 2 AMD/Intel and E14 Gen 3 AMD.
Tip: search "<model name> psref" to quickly get to a PDF with specifications.
I'm running Ubuntu 20.04 LTS and Firefox (from the default Ubuntu repo) is updated frequently. It might lag behind the official release by a few days, but I can live with that. Currently at 87 [0], so I expect 88 (which Mozilla released a few days ago) any day now.
Sublime Text 4 dev builds (with public download links for Linux, Windows and Mac) are announced on their Discord [0]. If you're using Arch, or just want a quick download link to the probably most recent Linux build, see [1]. I believe a valid ST3 license is required.
It's the latter. A third party provides you with the stuff you need to export to consoles, e.g. export template(s) and such that for legal reasons can't be included in the normal version of Godot. Here's a recent thread about having a Godot game built for Switch: https://twitter.com/monolithofminds/status/12599133551769272...
Stephen "Blue" Heaslip is still at it, ~24 years later, doing daily updates [0]. Full archives stretching back to 1996. Quite a bit of history in there.
Corona Labs is shutting down in a couple of weeks. While they're releasing everything under a permissive license (MIT) and turning it into an open source project, the future is very uncertain.
My personal favorite, which is in a similar vein - an Italian, although the site is in English; Frontpage; still updated - is https://www.luigicases.com/. He makes leather straps and cases for cameras. Famous in the classic camera community. Only active site that I can think of that still uses frames.
