The Big Beautiful Bill also bundled a bunch of unrelated things, and that still got GOP votes.

Downside: it requires knowing a new coding language, Nix, to maintain your laptop.

If you don’t understand it, it’s going to be painful to fix anything that doesn’t work.

 

This poorly designed table on the AWS website appears to show that neither tier of their new AI agent "Q" offers "Peace of Mind".

Maybe the table was designed by AI, too? "PRICE", "FEATURES" and "PEACE OF MIND" are supposed to be understood as section headers, but the design doesn't work because they didn't also put "price" on its own row and they pointlessly used alternate-row background colors. They could have used background cell colors to communicate which rows were section headers.

I have had more problems with two different Frameworks than most Thinkpads. Battery died, boot/power problems on both the 13 and 16, touchpad problem on the 13.

I prefer the concept of the Frameworks but can’t say they have worked better in practice.

The mode only seems to trigger if the midplate is pressing a switch on the MB. If you are running the MB without the midplate it doesn’t seem to trigger, so the server car should be supported.

 

It boots into a special mode to walk you through completing the assembly. The screen updates to reflect your progress and prompt the next step. This requires no tools to complete. Impressive! See linked video.

It might be related to earlier attacks on Codeberg because of their open support of diversity, equity and inclusion.

I’m sure Tesla shareholders are happy to hear he’s picked up another side project.

One obstacle all third parties face in the US is party-line voting, which favors the dominant parties.

On possible outcome is that he puts a lot of money into making third party candidates more viable, like efforts to ban party-line voting or supporting ranked choice voting. So, you could vote for the America Party candidate and then if they don’t have a majority ñ, you vote could roll over to the Dem or GOP candidate of your choice, reducing your risk of voting third party.

These changes would help Libertarian, Green and other parties as well. More choice for voters!

I host routing for customers across the US, so yes I need it all. There are ways to solve the problem with less memory but the point is that some problems really do require a huge amount of memory because of data scale and performance requirements.

 

You've got multiple monitors and watch to switch to a window several windows away.

You could switch focus there with a number of arrow key movements.

"sway-easymotion" allows you to use to press a key that prints a one or two character label on each window. Press that key and your focuses switch there.

Over the weekend I submitted patches for a couple of new features. First, I added multi-monitor support. Second, I added a visual confirmation of which window was selected.

If you are familiar with Github and Rust, you can review the patches and try them out here:

  1. App redirects to identity broker
  2. Identity Broker redirects to social login
  3. Browser prompts to open password manager to access social login password.
  4. Password manager prompts for master password and redirects back to social login
  5. Social login prompts for security key.
  6. Social login redirects back to identity broker.
  7. Identity broker redirects back to app.
  8. "Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'length')"
 

Keyboards with custom firmware supports keycodes like XF86Copy and XF86Paste. These are great for having truly global copy/paste shortcuts that also work in apps like terminals where "Control-V" and "Control-C" aren't supported by default.

I advocated that these keycodes be supported in a web browser, Qutebrowser. The author of that project, Florian Bruhin liked the idea and submitted a patch upstream to the QT framework, which is used by many apps associated with the KDE Linux desktop. And about 5 years later, apps will be packaged with QT 6.10 that include the fix.

Here’s the change description.

This adds support for the Help, Open, Close, Save, New, Cut, Copy, Paste, Undo, Redo, Back, Forward, Refresh, ZoomIn, ZoomOut, Find, Settings, Exit, and Cancel keys to the default keyboard shortcuts.
