Native American who’s citizenship is being argued against in the Supreme Court

You should go back to your home country or something like that. /s

*Okey dookie

What about more extreme cases, say Castaway (movie) type situation. Stranded on an island in middle of nowhere.

But conveniently, one of the packages has a functional 2m battery powered radio and a Yagi too. There’s no one you can make contact with, except… the ISS.
What if the ISS was the only station you could contact?
“Hello International Space Station, I am stranded on an island after a plane crash. Can you help?”

Free Starlink during disasters for everyone, but for surveilence child protection and anti-terrorism you must accept X as a Certificate Authority.

I asked a lecturer some question, I think it was what happens when bit shifting signed integers.
He asked an LLM and read the answer.
Similarly he asked an LLM how to determine memory size allocated by malloc. It said that it was not possible, and that was the answer. But a 2009 answer from stack overflow begged to differ.
At least he actually tried it out when I told him.

But at this point I even had my father send me an LLM written slop that was clearly bullshit (made up information about non-existent internal system at our college), which he probably didn’t even read as he copied everything including “AI answers may be inaccurate.”

I have similar issue with Google.
At some point I used to use Google Photos backups. I wanted to delete the backed up files, but there’s no way to do that. It would also delete them from the devices.
And I guess it checks them based on hash, because even in the main view it always figures out where the files are currently stored, if on device, even after I moved them elsewhere. Otherwise these other images only show up in their respective folders, not the main view.

You can always re-start.

Depends.
I am in uni, so a bit different, but there’s many sites that allow access to articles, studies, books, etc. to us based on source IP. And I guess it could be hard to route only those, especially if some of them decide to use Cloudflare or similar.

Another option is doing so for easier monitoring of work devices that people will always try to use for things they’re not supposed to.

You are supposed to look at the road, yet we have roadside billboards.

I’ll add something:

For the DNS I use NextDNS. They allow for control and monitoring. I recommend not using the block page. It took me months to figure out what was (exactly - I didn’t see the app behave like that before) eating my data, but resolving to IP with different service makes certain apps go nuts. For example, NetMonster was trying to make connection every second. Also some apps don’t seem to care about HTTPS and just proceed to show whatever is shoved at them.
Without block page, they get 0.0.0.0 and won’t send garbage to NextDNS.
I used the RethinkDNS firewall app to track this down.
I checked my screenshots, it was 2.3KB per request. With 24/7 on data, that’s 5.9GB/month of garbage. Yikes. And that’s just 1 app.

For DPI, above or equal to 600, you get tablet UI. This changes layout of some apps and gives you app icons and app drawer next to navigation buttons, if you’re not using gestures. I usually use 705dp. A bit of extreme for most.
Oh, and reportedly high DPI settings used to cause boot loop on some MIUI devices, but it can cause glitches on some other devices (broken navigation on Moto G54 5G when I tried).

“Stay tuned for part 2”

I think this is just for news and articles.

It works well for recalling something you already know, whether it be computer or human language. What’s a word for… what’s a command/function that does…

I only have experience with Plasma, but on X11 when I tap on the screen, it emulates a mouse click where I tap. And it also does when I swipe my finger, like holding a clicked mouse and moving the pointer. And gestures don’t work, though I think that one can be fixed.

Wayland just works. When I want to select text, press and hold like on a phone. When scrolling something, I just swipe it like on a phone (except for LibreOffice, that one is an absolute mess on Wayland). Especially nice with drawing programs. Stylus acts just like what I described with finger on X11 - it controls mouse pointer.
In effect this means that with fingers I can move around and zoom, while with stylus I can draw or select text.

And then GTK 4.20 breaks Rnote and I can only use it via Xwayland…

Anyway, for a touchscreen device, I had more luck with Wayland.

I thought I’d be fine, that I’d buy the other 16GB stick later. Now is later, I am screwed. I had to enable the use of ALT-SysRq-f to manually invoke OOM-killer because I often run out of RAM.

8GB just feels like way too little for a new laptop. Well, maybe the absolutely cheap ones, but “mid-range”, no.

It’s crazy. A bit over a year ago I got a refurbished ThinkPad for €180 with 1x16GB of RAM. Now that RAM costs around €120.

I prefer Wayland because I use a 2-in-1 ThinkPad. No thanks X11, I don’t want a click on touch mouse pointer.

But apparently they remotely used a laptop located in the US, so from there it should’ve been fine, no? Unless it was simply used as a proxy.

Problem is, Linux Mint installer says nothing about that as far as I recall, and just offers a convenient slider to allocate space between Windows and Linux.

And that was my first computer. Yeah, I am relatively new to computers.

But hey, I only lasted with Windows for 2 days. In Windows 10 I couldn’t even wrap my head around when to use Control Panel and when settings, because look, mature OS, we have Settings 1 and Settings 2.
In comparison, Linux Mint 20 MATE was far simpler, so having really used neither, I went with the easier one. However, that doesn’t mean I had any idea what I was doing. I didn’t even understand the concept of partitions.
Just imagine a total newbie.
“Where is the file stored?”
“On… the computer…?”

Just boot partition?

I once installed Linux Mint by shrinking Windows 10 partition in Linux against the recommendations. On first Windows boot it seemed fine, except that C: was still showing the old size.
On next Windows reboot it got annihilated with “Repairing drive C:”.
