sgt-puzzles. Simon Tatham’s Portable Puzzle collection.

Contains a bunch of simple puzzles, of the minesweeper and sudoku style. Loopy is my favorite.

Available for Linux, Windows, MacOS, Android, and anything with a web browser and a mouse. Packaged in Debian and F-droid, and probably many other places.

I like it for time wasting in lines at the DMV, for a low-stakes game when anxious, and for falling asleep.

The latter half of point 2 seems like a great idea for all ads. Force Facebook to disclose the whole set of targeting parameters.

Unfortunately, I think most platforms for novels allow AI, so they end up full of AI trash.

Instead of using a platform, try looking up authors you’ve read before and liked. Then see where they publish. Or try and find a fandom for the genre you like, and ask humans for recommendations

You’re the first person in this thread to bring up Jewishness.

The problem is that the infographic says “of all the mammals on Earth”, which means individuals, not biomass. So the infographic is objectively false.

I’ve never heard anyone say that Flatpaks could result in losing access to the terminal.

My only problem with Flatpaks are the lack of digital signature, neither from the repository nor the uploader. Other major package managers do use digital signatures, and Flatpaks should too.

OBS worked pretty well for me last time I used it, using the basic package Debian provided.

First choice: 292 K

Second choice: 9 C

If we’re talking only outdoor temperature, third choice is 100 F, because air conditioning exists, and my peppers would thrive.

If it’s ambient indoor temperature too, then I pick 9 F, which is unpleasant, but survivable. At 100 F indoors, you will be constantly sweating for the rest of your life.

The cell membrane is the wall of the cell. I know it’s less catchy, but human cells don’t have a cell wall.

X11 has effectively already been deprecated for years, seeing little to no development on it. No one should be surprised.

X11 is complete.

Wayland is incomplete, and is missing essential features like accessibility and automation (ydotool will never have half the features xdotool has).

If you’re certain that only the housing of the connector has changed from old motor to new motor, and each pin inside the housing is the same, then I’d recommend trying a heat gun to melt the waxy adhesive, followed by poking around with a tiny flat screwdriver to unlatch the pins.

But if it were me, I’d just splice the wires. You will need heatshrink or at least electrical tape, a soldering iron, and solder. A good splice can easily handle more current than that little connector.

Are you going to provide an explanation you think is more correct? Some kind of correction, or citation, or just say “you’re wrong” without further comment?

The first half, because of testosterone.

The second half, because of prolactin.

It’s not really that simple, but it’s part of it. And I’m not a doctor.

Mozilla, for example, would sign Firefox’s flatpak with a PGP key that they would disclose on their website. You verify the signature using the RSA algorithm (or any other algorithm for digital signatures. There are a bunch.) Or, you could just trust that your connection wasn’t tampered the first time, then you would have the public key, and it would verify each time that the package came from that same person. Currently, you have to trust every time that your connection isn’t tampered.

Major flatpak providers (Flathub at the very least) would include their PGP public key in the flatpak software repo, and operating system vendors would distribute that key in the flatpak infrastructure for their operating system, which itself is signed by the operating system’s key.

Article doesn’t mention my biggest problem with flatpaks, that the packages are not digitally signed. All major Linux distros sign their packages, and flathub should too. I would prefer to see digital signatures from both flathub and the package’s maintainer. I don’t believe flathub has either one currently.

My problem with that theme is that it doesn’t highlight any buttons. I believe all buttons should have borders, especially the ones the titlebar. This helps distinguish a noninteractive label from an interactive clickable button.

Note the fact that Huawei and SunGrow have remote access to 168 GW already. These device ARE CURRENTLY phoning home.

I knew. I had been meaning to buy an aftermarket car stereo with USB and MP3 support for a long time. I was on my last blank CD, and had to decide then whether I would buy more CDs, or whether I would buy a new stereo that didn’t need CDs.

A lot of places that offer both Linux and Windows (like Dell) charge the same price, because the Windows license is subsidized by crapware, spyware, and demo software that they load onto the computer.

24 and a half hours. I showed up the first day and found out the training period was unpaid. They advertised $15 per hour W-2-style position, but when I showed up, they offered a totally different 1099 contractor position where most of my time would be unpaid. I went home and researched, and confirmed my suspicions that Vector Marketing was a total scam. I came back the next day and chewed them out in front of all the other trainees they were trying to scam.
