17M, I like computers, trains, space, radio-related everything and a bunch of other tech related stuff. User of GNU+Linux.
I am also dumb and worthless.
My laptop is HP 255 G7 running Manjaro and Linux Mint.
I own RTL-SDRv3 and RSP1 clone.

Suspension on my laptop (closing the lid) causes Wifi to not be available. (kbin.social)

Hi, this is a long lasting problem that I didn't really manage to fix when I started using linux (Mint, Cinnamon). But now that I've been using it regularly for half a year and I have more experience in fiddling around, I'm trying to get it resolved....

Do you have Nvidia GPU? I am not sure if that could be related, but sometimes my old laptop would behave funky after resuming it from sleep when using nouveau driver. Although generally I just wouldn’t get any video output. But I could never get past login screen, and it sounds unlikely it would affect WiFi, but who knows?

@user224@lemmy.sdf.org avatar

That’s not very efficient though. And I definitely wouldn’t put a running laptop into backpack.

Hmmm, that sounds oddly familiar.

(as long as you don’t reboot it too often 😂)

Could you enlighten me on that? This sounds scary.

2006, 2007 was my 1st birthday. But that’s just a detail.

Also, something more to think about:
Oldest gen-alphas are currently 13.
First generation beta child will be born on 2025 (if Earth and humans survive).

Hmm. I planned to upgrade it to newest available IOS for this device, 15.0.2-SE11.
What kind of bricking are we talking about here? (Permanent or fixable)

I only found this:

A Catalyst 2960 with 64Mb of DRAM might display Low memory on the console after upgrading to 12.2(58)SE or later

Which should be fixed, and if not, I could just downgrade it back. Worst case scenario: I’ll have to use xmodem instead of TFTP.

Equivalent to senior (different school system).

In Slovakia, depending on chosen field of study, it ranges from 2 to 5 years. It’s 4 years for me.

Only as old as you feel like.

You actually had it right before.

Nope. That will be 18. By 1st birthday I meant when I was 1.

Your words struck a chord with me, and I find myself nodding in agreement. I wholeheartedly agree with everything you’ve said. It’s refreshing to hear such a clear and well-articulated take on “this”. I couldn’t have said it better myself.

Happened to me today. Turns out MIUI optimized the Clock app.

I allowed it to autostart, I disabled battery optimization, I locked it in recent apps.
It may still occur.
But hey, I only woke up 30 minutes later. “Something isn’t right.”

@user224@lemmy.sdf.org avatar

Sounds like my Moto G5s Plus. I updated it to Android 8.1 and it started having issues like lagging, completely freezing up, randomly restarting, battery drain, overheating, etc.
Oh, well. It ran PixelExperience 11 just fine. It also allowed me to use the notification LED that Motorola disabled in software for reasons unknown.

Edit: I just like this part from bootloader unlock license agreement on what doing so may cause:

Cause the Device to overheat, explode and/or catch fire, exceed SAR values, exceed safe volume settings, and otherwise be unsafe, including creating the potential to cause serious bodily injury, including death

Considering that when an uninstaller fails, and taking ownership of the broken files to remove them doesn’t seem to help, so you have to boot into Linux to forcibly remove them because Windows doesn’t let you do it, yes, it is part of Windows.

I only have one song from them in my playlist, Requiem for My Harlequin, but I quite like it. I found it while listening to KGRG.

I am sorry if it seems a bit weird, but Johann Strauss II - Egyptian March.

Although it’s not the only one I am currently obsessed with, just the most recently added.

Oh, sorry. I created a misunderstanding it seems. I was referring to actual soap, not SOAP. I can still hear dad telling me to go wash my mouth with soap.

Because it was a new comment then, so it got highlighted. As of Lemmy 0.19.0-rc.5 it’s orange. Or yellow. I don’t know what it really is.

As far as I know, it’s real. It comes from his OnlyFans.
There’s also cat pic illusion meme made out of that. That’s how I know.

I use linux for the same reason I wear fuzzy socks and sweaters

My understanding of the history of fashion is that back in the 1950s America it was expected that you wore a suit/dress at work unless you had a different uniform. There were a bunch of very boring people who thought that we should be wearing office job garb all the time, because they wore suits so much it was their default...

True. But as I found out, the ISO file needs to be stored on a partition formatted with NTFS for that to work.

I have a QR code in my backpack with rickroll that works offline. It has the “Never gonna give you up” ~2 second cut compressed into 8kbps MP3 and embedded into base64 data tag so you can open it in web browser.
But there’s still a better way. OPUS can do as little as 6kbps and still sound better. Modern browsers should support it just as well.

And theoretically speaking, there’s something called codec2 which goes down to 700bps. Maybe the rickroll would still be recognizable with that. That could do ~22 seconds of audio inside a QR code.
Edit: Forget it. This is how music sounds with 700bps codec 2: auphonic.com/media/…/music-test_700bps.c2.wav

What inconsequential or surprisingly good thing can I get from Aliexpress?

Im curious as I usually use the site very occasionally to get certain electronic parts or order from PCBway like I just picked up some cheap but infinitely better than stock gps antennas for my LoRa T beams and im about to get a set of also still cheap but much better than stock 915mhz antennas but i kinda wanna throw some other...

Probably the best thing I got there was clone of RSP1 with selectable band pass filters for €20. 10kHz - 2GHz range with up to 10MHz of bandwidth in Zero IF mode, although it seems it’s more like 8MHz that’s actually usable. It’s not sold where I bought it anymore, but maybe you could still find it.
It’s this one: https://i.imgur.com/ic2dflg.jpg

The only problem is compatibility, and the fact that I had to install some proprietary API from SDRPlay on my laptop as a SystemD service.

I still have like 20 NTAG 213s, so now you gave me an idea. What app do you use? I’d like if it had the option to silence it for a few seconds after sliding some slider though, as I am not in a room alone.

I do it weirdly. Basically on how a song feels, I can’t tell genres, and honestly, I don’t care.

Anyway, these folders are the result:


<span style="color:#323232;">Music out of directory

</span><span style="color:#323232;">Music type 1 Mk2

</span><span style="color:#323232;">Music type 1 Mk4 S1
</span><span style="color:#323232;">Music type 1 Mk4 S2
</span><span style="color:#323232;">Music type 1 Mk4 S3
</span><span style="color:#323232;">Music type 1 Mk5
</span><span style="color:#323232;">Music type 2 Mk1

Someone installed Windows server 2008 on one of our school computers. The shutdown option was missing. So I asked the teacher about it. He also had no idea how the hell to shut it down. Pressing the power button would just log-out the user.

For at least 2 years it did fine with forced shutdowns.

user224,
@user224@lemmy.sdf.org avatar

Be happy the shutdown procedure doesn’t start by opening regedit. I wouldn’t be surprised, to be honest.

Kinda chaotic. For something I use app called “Notepad free”, for something I create text files (usually temporary) in Termux using Vim. Wait! It does make sense. I can ssh into my phone and write notes like that from basically any computer.

Just ereyesterday I decided to try writing down my dreams when I’ll remember them. So I simply created directory called dreamlog on my TF card and create text files in Vim. The filenames are simply dates in ISO8601 format. But it’s just 1 entry so far. I don’t tend to remember dreams, though I heard writing them down every time may help improve that.

This may seem kind of stupid but I am kind of stupid, is there a list somewhere of phrases that are stupid or insensitive racially or gender biased?

I just got up from conversation with a couple of older black men, that I said “well I got to go back to work and start cracking the whip.” And it occurred to me then that it was probably a really insensitive stupid thing to say....

Found in Slovakia and Czech Republic on Aukro.sk (auctioning site)

user224,
@user224@lemmy.sdf.org avatar

If you’re from Czech republic, then use Aukro.cz as that’s the Czech version. It was just recently re-introduced to Slovakia.

user224,
@user224@lemmy.sdf.org avatar

Same, I love AppImages for that. I just wish they also had way to contain configurations instead of putting it on the system. That would make it even more portable.
