Ladies, gentlemen, none of the above. We have come full circle. The mainframe + Terminal combination is back

Needed like five minutes just to understand the graph, but man it is packed with useful information. Data is indeed beautiful. And the mobility triangle in the US of A isn’t.

Such a fun phone, I absolutely love it. It does everything a modern mid to lower mid range phone does. But typing is heavy. I put a custom Thumbkey fork on it, and now it’s… okay :D

If you only need roughly the same layout, you are able to replicate it without too much programming skills with the open source AnySoftKeyboard. Just fork it and create your own board. If you need assistance, I’m glad to give you a bit of help.

I guess, the browser is kind of the replacement for the OS in OP’s case, which is again, a nonfree OS/browser.

AFAIK macOS doesn’t care if you add another partition in diskutil and install Linux on that through the usual live ISO’s. But please make sure you:

• Don’t delete your main OS (make a Backup!)
• Install Linux with (U)EFI compatibility
• Don’t touch any recovery partitions
  • Don’t mess with the Mac’s EFI/ESP partition

Answering the question you meant to ask, blueray is a physica… just kidding.

LocalSend is basically like bluetooth file sharing over WiFi. Bluetooth, especially the fallback 2.0 is notoriously slow and short ranged. The situation got better with BLE, 5.0 and Long Range. Still, both devices need to speak BT. Ap*le’s iOS is well known to ignore BT file sharing capabilities while implementing own proprietary solutions. On desktop, the situation is still bad. I once tried to send a file between two Windows machines via BT, and it was a horrible user experience. LocalSend (and similar) fix this by implementing cross platform apps and using readily available API’s to share files with few clicks and reasonably high speed between a plethora of devices. I guess, if you don’t have the aforementioned problems, you won’t need LocalSend et al.

Really great software. Works like a charm most of the time, the apps are quite okay, sends files locally. The first low-barrier solution to share stuff between wildly different devices since e-mail.

I don’t want any damn vegetables mail accounts.

Have you ever used the Xperia XZ Compact phones? They were who sold me to the fingerprint sensor in the power button. Fucking seamless experience there

depends on what you wanna see. I’d say no. Some people are spending weeks there

Went with an Interrail Global pass to a train trip through italy. We took the first class ticket because it wasn’t all that much more expensive and we’ve spent like 30 hours on the track over the period of two weeks. Be careful, though, as not all trains are free to use and you need to reserve seats which will set you back quite a few bucks.

wait, what? I’ve had a GIMP 2.x for at least 15 years now. they can’t just… increase the number?? it’s part of the program’s name now

Fun Fact: There’s a whole scientific discipline solely focused at making science available to average joe, it’s called science communication.

Not sure what you’d expect a LLM model to do, but reading deeper into science communication will certainly help you understand and achieve what you are looking for.

Isn’t that the whole purpose of an Abstract?

TL;DR: They released some bug fixes.

[Completely unrelated to the content] How the heck is this post managing to crash two out of my three lemmy clients?

Libertinus Serif (much nicer Times New Roman-ish serif text font. Huge amount of glyphs, open source font license, great to read on display and on print)

Lato (Sans font which imo compliments Libertinus Serif really good. More for short texts, headlines etc. I wouldn’t recommend it as a UI font. Also permissive font license.)

AFAIK if you buy any computer from within the last 20 years, there’s a good chance you can get a 6.X Kernel running on it. 32-bit support is fading out, though. If you buy a 64-bit computer, you’ll be able (with sufficient RAM and hard disk space) to install any modern distro on it.
