Battery failure is a "when" because batteries have a limited number of charge-discharge cycles. Modern lithium-ion batteries have a life expectancy in the range of 300-600 cycles. So if you've never had such a failure,…
I'm not certain that the git committer tells you the full story. I don't believe the AUR enforces that the git commit email is the same as the current maintainer email. So this could have been an orphan package, adopted…
And this is why "mandatory app to configure" is an instant dealbreaker for me for any piece of hardware. Don't buy crap like this. Force companies to be better.
It's not outdated, you just actually need to follow it. 3 copies of data in separate S3 buckets is ignoring the "2" in the 3-2-1 rule: 2 different mediums, and also the "1" rule: 1 copy offsite. In the cloud era,…

Sounds to me like there ought to be a MOOP cleanup deposit charged upfront, that only gets returned after this inspection. If the cleanup crew has to clean your site, you forfeit part or all of your deposit. Repeat…
> It's behind a UPS and a good surge protector. To be clear, neither of these things are intended to address EMI/RFI. Most consumer-grade UPSes directly pass the AC power through when not on battery, so any noise on the…
The DUP profile is meant for use with a single disk. The RAID* profiles are meant for use with multiple disks. Both are necessary to cover the full gamut of BTRFS use cases, but it would probably be good if mkfs.btrfs…
> Metadata DUP (not sure if it's across 2 disks or all 3) should be expected to be robust, I'd expect? No. DUP will happily put both copies on the same disk. You would need to use RAID1 (or RAID1c3 for a copy on all…
I think the idea is you stick a link to this page in your PR-closed comment.
Perhaps they were using Ctrl-Alt-Del to get to the Task Manager so that they can kill an unruly process?
Here's the actual TSA list: https://www.tsa.gov/travel/security-screening/identification But fun fact: even if an ID is on that list, if it's not one that their little scanner machines know how to read, then it's…

I've always thought it would be neat if the accelerator pedal on cars had some sort of force feedback that was proportional to the amount of power the engine is putting out. That way the driver would be able to feel how…
A little bit of educated guessing on my part: The purple frames have a bunch of gradients to white, which looks a lot like what happens when the infrared filter on most color cameras is removed and a bunch of IR light…
There's a relevant FAQ with a solution for you: https://adventofcode.com/2025/about#faq_highcontrast
But this article is only grading the styling of the OS GUI elements, not the functionality (or lack thereof) of the OS itself.
It does look to be a nudge in that direction, but it's not a slam-dunk. From my non-lawyer reading of the text, it seems like it would depend on how well you can argue that a total ban is not "narrowly tailored."
> the non-backlit screen If I'm not very much mis-remembering, this Palm actually did have a backlight? I think you had to long-press the little green button to activate it.
Silicon and silicone are two very different things...

I know this is just a weird workaround, but you can put your mouse cursor on top of the scroll bar. The scroll wheel still works like normal there (at least in my tests on Linux / Firefox).
