I don’t get how that’s going to help with multiple keys on my cheap keyboard not registering properly, when pressed at the same time.

IMHO, nKRO is the best solution to get rid of ghosting.


Doesn’t even startup on my box,

It needs to startup and then go to that point (after you select the projection) to cause the crash.
It definitely caused something other than the application to get into an invalid state. Which is why I am apprehensive about trying it out again to answer your comment. Probably was the display driver, which is why it didn’t just turn off after that.


There’s this game “HyperRougue”. Run it on Arch.

hyperrogue-git version 13.0d.r60.g27fb2d92-1

Go to settings -> 3D configuration -> projection -> projection type -> . Cycle through the projection types. One of them causes something good enough to call a crash.

I don’t remember anymore if it was just a display driver crash or a kernel crash and I haven’t updated to a newer version (which might have fixed it).


What language were you using?
Python maybe? I don’t know of any other interpreted language, that you may be calling system commands from, without saving to disk

I use C and C++ and my IDEs save to disk before compiling. Makes sense to not try compiling when there are potentially 2 versions (one on RAM or /tmp and one on Disk) and the build system might be running multiple commands, which the IDE may/may not know of, in my case.


Guy is wrong. Went to 0th table. She asked for 1st table.


I installed a buzzer on it

Definitely want to do that on all keyboards at work




Well, guess who’s not buying next gen Ryzen?

They are doing similar stuff with deliberately delaying Linux driver capabilities for Radeon 7xxx series, to make more GPUs die out faster, by overheating (zero RPM fan until 60°+).



In short, if you’re pwned once, you are pwn3d f0r3v#rrrrreeeheehaahaahaa*cough**cough*


These are the kinds of exploits you use to create APT (Advanced Persistent Threats).


Alternatively, you can just use the `` enclosure, used for single line code.
That is a “grave accent” or a “backtick”, the key you will find on the left of the ‘1’ key and under the ‘Esc’ key on a standard (ISO, maybe) 104/105 key qwerty keyboard.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯



You’re right, but at the same time.

Let’s say a website has an issue and was one time faulty. Clients lost money. Then the site owner is notified of the fault by multiple clients. The site owner uses some words to placate them and goes on with their day.

The site owner then makes some changes to the site, meaning they did have the time and money to pay a developer to update the site, but decides to keep the previous bug in, as a feature, implemented in a different way, this time better at stealing their money.


Sure, the obvious solution is to use another site (the laundromat down the road).

I am a desktop person.
My main reasons for using a smartphone instead of a phone, are:

  1. GPS Maps. This is something I most probably won’t be able to contribute to, while at the same time, I need it a lot.
  2. UPI (Unified Payments Interface). I can manage with paper money, but this is just too useful. If Linux mobile were to pick-up, I think I could manage to get it supported by the Govt.
  3. WhatsApp, because no matter how much I don’t want to, others, including workplace teammates, will make that a requirement.

Until these requirements are met, I will associate Linux mobile with words like, “next” and “tomorrow”.

Welcome to Linux for Mobile.
The next generation OS for keeping your smartphone private and your conversations (kinda) secure.

It’s “next generation”, because we probably won’t have a good enough solution in the lifetime of the current generation’s people.

But if you have both: enough money to buy an extra fairphone for testing and the time and ability to program drivers, please consider it.


Yeah, it doesn’t really make any sense for them to have it anywhere other than the backend.


Guess this particular exec is not getting this month’s bonus.


Sounds like something an apple exec might say… For their products.


commands to install dependencies n shit

That only happens if you are fixated on installing the software without connecting to the internet.
Otherwise, the package manager does it for you (that’s what its job is)


something extremely niche

Desktop Linux is already pretty niche.


Just take it and move to another start system.

And learn assembly


I have a feeling making it all CAPS would have made it just a bit easier.
That, or using monospace fonts for it everywhere.


Except that softwares and hardwares probably came out of the word “wares”.


Reading this as someone who torrents debian ISOs instead of directly downloading then in the hopes of reducing server load, while at the same time, not torrenting any pirated stuff.

But well, I was born a wee bit before 2000


I feel like the user’s suggestion of “jumping off the Golden Gate Bridge” would be more impactful in that case, you know, to awaken your survival instincts, which prevents depression.
But on the off chance that someone actually goes and jumps off, a professional would probably not give that advice.


1950s

A: The transistor I made using your blueprint doesn’t switch properly at 12V.
Maker of Blueprint: The one I made, works at 12V.
B: I’mma make standard transistors.

why?

Blueprint was made by a person in the tropics.
A was in Europe


Silicates are everywhere! It’s hard to throw a rock without throwing one!

If that’s all that’s needed to consider yourself having a basic understanding, then I already had it by the time I passed HS.

Unfortunately, the Alt text doesn’t tell us the bar, so we can’t know how round we are.


On the contrary, it (the website) looks really nice.

The product, on the other hand, seems targeted towards “normies” and would probably do better in a place that doesn’t have ppl already self hosting their stuff.


Also ~100Mb/s is in no way the average speed in an Indian household.

You’re right. It’s not.

I also don’t see any specific mentions of india in your link up there to that random site.

I don’t see any either. Guess why. Because it only has the top 10, further emphasising the point that :

the average Indian is not doing “Hella fast Tokyo banddrifts”


And Japan has a 300+ Tb/s connection. Your point?
My point is that the average Indian is not doing “Hella fast Tokyo banddrifts” (not sure what banddrift even means, but no).

And yes, a 1Gb/s connection is theoretically available, but how many people are using the ~₹4000/month connection?

Considering how many people tend to just not have Broadband at home, relying just on mobile internet, we can see how things compare with others.

Also, to point to the tread starter, most of the “thousands of” cables that you see on poles in congested areas, are just abandoned cables from older installations which nobody cared to remove.


those wizards must be streaming some Hella fast Tokyo banddrifts with all them wires.

That part is wrong for India, at least.
Here’s a random site with some stats
India, you can expect ~100Mb/s with FTTH and 50Mb/s otherwise. Reliability is even worse.

Rest is right.


It’s not the result, but the process.

You can teach ppl stuff all you want, but what they really need, is to learn how to figure it out themselves. Otherwise, when the best practices you teach them become obsolete, they won’t be able to create their own.


It’s kinda fun to think of programming as magic.
And “libraries” as grimoires/tomes .

It’s surprising how far you can go with the analogy.


That’s just camel case vs snake case (though in this case, it also has the first character capitalised)


I use C++ and in certain projects, I am already halfway there.



I think it’s the nerds’ job to teach the ML to ruin jokes.


I got interested and asked ChatGPT. It gave a middle-management answer.
Guess we know who’ll be the first to go.


It seems already too late for that movement - at least in places like the more “developed” states in the US.

I use a bicycle for commute btw.
