Unity News Lens Helps You Find News Fast
News is a vital, if non-edible, part of our daily diet; without a vague understanding of current events we fast develop an ignorant malaise.
新闻虽然不能吃, 但是生活的重要部分; 对时事不了解很痛苦。
Whether we ‘consume’ junk news – celebrity, TV, music, sport etc – or the information equivalent of ‘broccoli’ – politics, world, business, etc – it remains important to keep ourselves aware of something.
虽然有很多垃圾新闻, 但是新闻还是很重要。。。。
Thankfully, finding and reading the latest news on any subject has just gotten super easy in Ubuntu…
很幸运, 寻找和阅读新闻在ubuntu中将不再困
Unity News Lens
The News Lens, created by prolific lens developer David Callé, works like any other lens in Unity: you open the Dash, select it, then enter a query. Results are then displayed.
News Lens 由多产的Lens开发者
Clicking on a result tile opens the story in your default browser.
点击搜索结果在默认浏览器中打开。
By default the lens uses your system language. But that’s not always preferable. For example, I’m learning Swedish so find reading Swedish news helpful.
默认情况下lens使用你的系统语言, 但是这不总是好用, 比如我正在学Swedish, 我就喜欢看一些Swedish新闻。
To search in a language other than the system default use the following syntax followed by your query.
搜索其他语言的文章, 可以使用下面的语法
!fr for French, !sv for Swedish, !ru for Russian, !de for German, etc
A full list of language codes can be found on Wikipedia.
