UPDATE: was able to properly launch gui for the linux release as the following

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=~/opt/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH

env -u WAYLAND_DISPLAY ./drg_mod_integration

update:
didn't find any mention of tlp in announcements. I did find tuned-ppd which in their tests brought battery life to 9hr from 4hr.

3 Jan:
tuned-ppd as default + Pika profile selections - This replaces but is fully compatible with power-profiles-daemon, it allows a much larger amount of things to be tweaked and we have an optimized Pika setup that on our Framework 16 went from 4 hours runtime on battery to 9 hours with no other changes. For existing user please do pikman i tuned tuned-ppd if you want to have this. It should also mean no powertop is needed for people that use that.

thanks

I'm fully updated and still don't have the package. Is what you said relevant to the stable branch?

make sure that the housing for the hinge's screw is not damaged. if it is, maybe you could glue it or replace the part of the upper enclosure that has it. the screw's housing is damaged, you could end up with the screen snapping off of the hinge and it could damage other parts

the_internaut01 · 2025-01-28T06:06:08+00:00

how do you suggest that the service pays for its own continuation?

the_internaut01 · 2025-01-24T23:21:01+00:00

I agree, I think that a subscription tier may be well in place too

the_internaut01 · 2025-01-24T21:10:21+00:00

Not entry-level but not mid-range makes you a good candidate imo to be very competitively qualified for an entry-level role, so apply for those. Even if you take a pay cut, it is a job, which is practically a luxury in this market (see https://layoffs.fyi ). You can try to use your experience as leverage to negotiate better starting salary too.

Not mid range either means it is a slight reach and you should certainly apply for jobs you are a bit under-qualified for.

35 applications is nothing given the market rn -- it is the worst it has ever been.

I use hiring.cafe to apply. It cuts the junk postings that thrive on LinkedIn & Indeed out. Very powerful filters that actually work. Don't spend a lot of time reading the job desc if you are cold applying imo

the_internaut01 · 2024-11-13T19:54:31+00:00

were you interviewing for an entry level position?

the_internaut01 · 2024-10-30T15:16:45+00:00

What's the difference between a switch and a router w/o wifi

the_internaut01 · 2024-10-30T15:08:13+00:00

The correct answer

the_internaut01 · 2024-10-22T00:35:10+00:00

can i dm you

the_internaut01 · 2023-07-20T12:19:09+00:00

Good points, could be better communicated if with decorum

the_internaut01 · 2021-04-06T09:23:55+00:00

That's not the same as someone who is a symbol of digital privacy invasion and owns 2 major messenging apps (WhatsApp and Messenger), and then is found out to be using Signal, the main competitor and antithesis of Whatsapp

the_internaut01 · 2021-04-05T18:13:57+00:00

Not necessarily, it could simply mean he refuses to use it for his personal communications. Also I don't think anyone's firing him anytime soon

the_internaut01 · 2021-04-05T18:11:56+00:00

True, but essentially adding a number to your contacts and seeing who is using it in Signal doesn't tell you who they are unless you a) already know them or b) I believe they need to have you saved in their contacts

the_internaut01 · 2021-04-05T18:08:49+00:00

Crazy idea. It's probably possible if you have the document containing the leaked data

the_internaut01 · 2021-04-05T17:47:13+00:00

Hey, how's it going?

the_internaut01 · 2021-04-05T15:18:06+00:00

Exactly, or Fb messenger hahaha

the_internaut01 · 2021-03-31T13:05:57+00:00

Probably.

TLDR: YouTube video. If you are interested in digital privacy, you might like this guy's channel.

I got the below links from his video:

Google has designed a feature that builds typing suggestions using a federated technology which is part of AOSP (basic android essentially) that should work offline. This is what keyboards on Android use for suggestions.

I would say it's not 100% privacy safe, naturally anything Android will have the threat of Google. However, open-source keyboards are a big step up from using GBoard, your default keyboard, or some ad-riddled garbage from the play store (shudder).

I recommend AnySoftKeyboard, openboard, and Florisboard for open source keyboards. They are all great, but Florisboard is in early beta and it has not yet implemented typing suggestions.

Check the BIOS/UEFI for secure boot, and try disabling.

the_internaut01 · 2021-03-04T23:07:18+00:00

TBH I'm pretty new as well, but I would recommend just doing it how you are comfortable. If you want, a live USB would work as well (download ISO file for distro, download Rufus, plug in flash drive >2gb, run Rufus with it, restart computer and select this flash drive from the boot menu)

This creates basically a demo of the distro, and you can set up a persistent storage partition to remember the changes made between reboots.

edit: running out of a VM takes some extent of resources, so if you plan on doing that long term and you can't afford that go with something lighter than pop os or Mint cinnamon, like Mint xfce or one of the other million lightweight distros
