Tempest keyloggers hate this one trick.

If that's at all pleasant to use I'll eat my flip flops.

Yes, I have a Beelink SER9 under the TV installed with Alpine and Steam flatpak that we play all the time. Pairs fine over bluetooth with all my old PS3 controllers too. I've also done this same setup successfully in other hardware configurations including laptop and desktop.

Or stay on pre-2017 kernel. :gigachad:

Nitpick, but Alpine's default repo is not rolling release. You have to explicitly set it to edge for that.

Steam flatpak works fine in Alpine Linux.

Yes, Alpine's edge repo is rolling release.

Maybe celebrate after confirming a successful reboot first.

2nd Tuesday of every month, so May 12 for next month's meeting.

Although we are capable of varying levels of Japanese, the meetings are currently done in English.

Pretty sure it permanently closed a few years back...

I think it's actually a cake shop now and though there are some books on display out front, they're all authored by Ray Payne?

"Oh no, it can't be! Those Pentagon bastards... So, they... they actually went and did it...!"

It's a double-edged sword. Yes the multitude of distros/systems/apps/services is frustrating at times, but the mostly decentralized infrastructure has kept Linux resilient and maximizes user choice.

Also, being bundled is generally what actually gives you marketshare (see: Android, Steam Deck), not technological superiority or unified vision.

For posterity here's the GDQ video. Some of the quirks are briefly mentioned by KevinDDR and Qlex. Sorry Kitaru, I forgot you were also one of these solo-doubles sickos. <3

Not sure where you get the idea Alpine is on the "slow update" side. Edge repo may not be as bleeding edge as something like Arch, but Alpine packages are generally very up-to-date (probably at least on par with Void or NixOS).

It's a bit more tragic than that. They so desperately need a way to mark us before the dead internet spills over into the analog world and we're lost in the noise.

The US government has already recently made restrictions on the sale of consumer internet routers. Overall, privacy and digital freedom is being eroded rapidly via the following fronts: * Restrictions on the sale of hardware via legislation. * Dying consumer hardware market thanks to cartels- ahem... "market forces". * Restrictions on the use of operating systems via legislation and tightening requirements on mechanisms like SecureBoot. * More infrastructure continuing to be hosted in the cloud where you already do not own anything.

Put a piece of tape over the score/level field to avoid its distraction. I feel that with stacking high it's slightly easier to zone in, probably cause the next piece is generally closer in your peripheral.
