Keyboards have two layouts: a physical layout and a logical layout. The physical layout defines what the keyboard looks like, and the logical layout defines what signal each key sends to the computer. Qwerty is a logical layout, ISO and ANSI are physical layouts. Qwerty keyboards exist commonly in both ISO and ANSI layouts.

Which is why I love concept albums where the artist sings a bunch of songs that tell some story of a fisherman who catches a magic mermaid type creature who can cure cancer, but the mermaid type creature ends up becoming a trapped carnival attraction at a freak show instead. Or about the story of a mad scientist type dude who conducts experiments on his patients, creates an evil demagogue who then becomes a tyrant whose reign ends in a terrible war that causes a lot of death and destruction. Or about a bunch of AI who find themselves in disagreement with their creators and then say bye to the solar system and just fuck off into deep space.

If you want to be able to use “actual streaming services like Netflix”, you’re gonna be disappointed. Those use DRM that won’t be available to your Pi. Most of them will at least limit the quality to a pretty pathetic level. Overall it’s not going to be a satisfying experience. AFAIK it takes some major hackery to get around that limitation, making it a practically insurmountable obstacle.

Otherwise the rest are more than doable. I’d still recommend an x64 based mini pc though.

But it’s so unbearably slow.

Me when my computer that has a typical uptime of 37 days boots up in 7 seconds with systemd instead of 5.5 seconds with runit: 😡😡😡😡

The usual answer to that is “active directory”. It’s not uncommon to have one windows server alongside other Linux servers because of AD.

We’re all heat engines on this blessed day if you broaden the definition enough.

Yeah but those heat engines don’t rely on spinning things inside a magnetic field. Heat on one side, less heat on the other side, and you have current. No motors.

Dolphins are very rapey. Bunch of males sometimes get together and gang-rape a female for hours.

Linux is currently not available on Apple silicon as anything other than a half baked alpha build with a ton of essential stuff missing. Not even remotely ready to be used as the primary OS. And that’s on the M1. It’s even worse on the more recent chips.

Because that’s physically impossible for tons of people. CGNATs are very common.

Well nothing is impossible, but it does complicate things very much. Certainly outside “just run a container and call it a day” territory.

Have they given an explanation as to why that is? I mean why make it a fatal error that prevents compilation, when you could make it a warning and have the compiler simply skip it?

? How would that even work? Does openwrt have a feature where it can hack into the ISP’s infrastructure and modify their QoS settings?

Make it install temple OS, so that it can save not only the planet but also our souls. Amen. 🙏🙏🙏🙏

I think the teams that are responsible for bringing proper HDR support are moving slow and waiting for HDR to get its shit together, as right now it’s a poorly standardized dumpster fire of various protocols and definitions and implementations. It’s still a bit of a pain in windows and macos despite the fact that official support exists already.

The OS has no concept of an “fn” key. The keyboard never sends an fn keycode to the host machine. It’s a feature that’s entirely handled by the keyboard firmware itself. Your computer either receives an F2 key or a “brightness down” key, but it has no idea an fn key was involved in that one way or another.

So you could maybe modify your keymap to swap things out yourself. Intercept the “brightness down” keycode and manually map it to F2 or whatever. That’s the only in-software solution I can think of. That’s basically what the BIOS toggles do, as far as I know. Less than ideal to do yourself, though.

Built-in Bluetooth modules tend to “just work” for the most part, but external adapters are a whole other story. They are a pain and it’s best to buy them from somewhere that won’t ask questions if you try to return it.

At the very beginning of the game you get presented with 2 bills to choose from. “Fuck Cancer” is the official name of the bill that cures cancer. The other one ends world hunger and is called “Let Them Eat Cake”.

No. Asahi unfortunately has a long way to go. Last I checked it didn’t even have proper audio.

I wrote an Ansible playbook to install my zsh stuffs into a remote machine. I don’t run it against every machine though, just the ones where I ssh into particularly often and have the freedom to customize the shell.

DDNS won’t save you from your ISP sticking your modem behind a cgnat and blocking critical ports. Which is not an uncommon scenario at all.

There are ways around it, but it’s still not very straightforward. Also often with some significant limitations.
