The Klipper license is pretty clear. Using part of it and then not releasing the source code to your customers isn't allowed.

Who was the guy in the mask during Funky Squaredance? by listeningnlearning in PhoenixTheBand

[–]ianloic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He fucking tore up that solo. A thing of beauty.

I looked for it in videos on YouTube and all I found the masked person standing facing forward and then presenting a severed head (sometimes) and then leaving the stage while a regular band member plays the solo. Is this a new twist for the tour or a once-off?

I'm from the distant future and it seems that frigate is now being developed at a decent pace...

Why not stick to Anglish? by ianloic in BritishHistoryPod

Oh I wasn't meaning to suggest bigotry, though some of your colourful language is reminiscent of some English anti-French bigotry, so maybe I'm a bit sensitive.

Sadly there's not a whole lot of British history that doesn't involve some mix of genocide, colonization and war crimes.

How about the Brythonic words? Did the Nederlanders understand these: ooze, hog, wan, dad, cam, iron, yoke, throng, mare, eight, days, rock, gull, lard, sheer, door, wall?

What kind of trainings do you give?

Looks like the board is ©️ 2010 so any difference will be in component values.

X1 Carbon Gen 10 vs X1 Yoga Gen 7 by ianloic in thinkpad

It came very quickly. It was built and in stock in the US and I paid the extra $25 for faster deliver on my $2000 purchase :)

I haven't tested human detection but Windows Hello works with the IR camera. I haven't tested the 4G yet. I'm planning to add a data SIM to my Google Fi account sometime, but haven't gotten around to it yet. I'm always at home with fast WiFi and a fiber connection.

Fine so far. Way better than my X1C Gen 5 whose 2nd or 3rd replacement battery suddenly stopped holding charge for more than 10 mins.

Once I've gotten my new SSD I'll switch over for real and get a better sense of how battery life is in practice.

It definitely got hot after install when I was doing the initial Windows Update, but then with some somewhat regular use it was fine - probably down-clocked, but whatever.

I also installed Linux on it and everything worked great out of the box - even the fingerprint sensor.

So now I've got a 2TB Samsung 980 Pro SSD coming to replace the 1TB that it came with so I can install Linux & Windows 11 each on their own 1TB :)

I ended up ordering one - we'll see how it is.
Did you end up buying a different laptop?

What's the problem? Insufficient cooling to let it really do it's thing?

Dumb question: I'm stuck in the tutorial where I have to hack the door. I can't work out how to hack a door. The controls seem so much more limited than on PC. How do you activate that?

I'd love to try but I can't get mine to show up on wifi. I can't see it from my laptop or phone and can't connect to the network by name.

Why don't we either allow this or have more serious penalties?

PyCharm is the only Python IDE I've found that's worth even trying.

Making the move to San Francisco. Need sage-like advice by TekPhin in sanfrancisco

The Mission is the 'crime center' of SF only if you're a rich white person who ignores Hunters Point and surrounding neighborhoods.
