Everydown turn there are layoffs and loss of talent. They alweys find something ‘unique’ to blame it on. Then things recover and they hire people who learn it again.

until 10 years have passed I refuse to call ai job loss anything other than the latest iteration of that pattern. Time will tell.

In my case wind turbines. My local utility produces more wind power in a year than customers use.

Welcome to inflation. If a price isn’t going up regularly someone is getting ripped off.

When my boss gives me a raise I always compare that to the yearly inflation rate - it has more than once turned what looks good into a loss for me. (I might accept it once in a while, but I’m looking for new jobs soon if they don’t fix)

What makes you think it is just one song? In the 1980s it was a mix tape that took the good tracks from several albums. With computers it is a playlist. Or more often it is a play random tracks from my large collection until I hit stop.

I do listen to just one song once in a while when that is all I have time for, or when some song comes to mind that I want to hear. However mostly it is a playlist that I created.

There are a few albums that are related collection and work best listened together, but most are just a bunch of songs and you can listen in any order.

Why are you typing anything in a grocery store? Type in the kitchen when you need to add something to the list, but in the store it should be just checking off the items as you put them in the cart. Maybe you have a good reason, but it feels like you are solving the wrong problem. [insert long rant about usability and human-machine interaction]

If you really need a keyboards I agree bluetooth keyboards are chunky. I often use a 60% keyboard with my phone, but it is a lot larger than my fine despite being a small keyboard. There is no getting around the size of hands though, you can’t make a good tiny keyboard (even a 40% won’t fit in your pocket).

You can find bluetooth keyboards that work just fine on a phone. The hard part is finding a good small one.

Hopefully firefox and the like will start putting spellcheck in their mobile applications again. I got mad at auto correct because it was worse than my spelling (at least you can guess what I meant - auto correct often changed to the wrong word: you wouldn’t think to I might mean something else). I also often use a bluetooth keyboard, again spell check is needed.

@mesamunefire@piefed.social go to adafruit or sparkfun (there are others) and pick up a “learn how to solder” kit of a type that looks interesting an put it together. Those kits will have instructions that give you a good chance of success and give you practice. They are also cheap so you don’t mess up something expensive if you make a mistake learning.

Core or Scale? If running Core I’d say install plain FreeBSD on it. Even if scale I’d consider that in a full wipe - FreeBSD is great as a server and supports ZFS out of the box without problems.

Then grow a long beard (not optional, even if female) so you can be “the old guy who has seen it all”

Will they not leak? I have lost too many devices because the battery leaked. I don’t use my tent light often but I need it to work when I’m in the middle of nowhere

I would by from system76 or framework - dedicated linux companies that will ensure things work.

The price of a mini pc includes the price of the case, power supply, heat sinks, fans and such. The hdmi is the only thing suspect but if the case doesn’t expose the hdmi port that will be in the minipc as well. when you compare just the board of a pi to a full pc that is unfair.

My guess is they started the site in the first place.

For now. Those used cars are rusting and otherwise wearing out.

The third parties would win sueing car makers for requiring the radio for diagnostics. anti-monopoly and warranty laws protect moding you car.

In the us laws from the 1970’s protect third party radios.

If it doesn’t affect emissions those mod chips will not violate your warrantee - magnuson-moss was writen decades ago to protect replacing your factory radio. There are a number of other laws around third party access to car diagnostics.

The other option is a scroll. historicaly I’m told a book was always a scroll and the factor we now call a book was a codex. (I don’t know how to verify this)

I wonder how/if she would agree with any of the awards given in her name.

Service matters. people yell free fares, but once again service proves the real key to rieership
