Some people say they were born in the wrong decade. Today I learned I was born in the wrong century.

Could you share a link or explain further? I’ve had no idea but don’t pay all that much attention to mobile in general.

Oh no, the lights were just off. I never change it anyways. I’m not one to care about making the keyboard do anything dynamic.

I ran into the same issue when I uninstall the bloatware from asus in windows.

Honestly, asus just is a huge pain here and I’ll definitely be avoiding them in the future.

It’s not regular typing. It’s primarily using the f-keys and numbers. Particularly for functions in my IDE.

Most of the time I’m using an external monitor and keyboard, so get very little practice on the built in one except when it’s in less than ideal situations like flying.

When I get my next laptop, I’ll be keeping Linux capabilities in mind. But that’s years away. I’m not even sure where to start with reverse engineering the hardware, and also don’t see myself spending months of my free time to make it work. I don’t have that much free time and there are too many other things I’d like to be using that time for.

Oh, I don’t need the keyboard to be pretty. Just lit up at all which seems to be effective locked by asus.

When I tried, I had put Ubuntu on it. That process seemed to go pretty good except the keyboard. Even got the WiFi working just fine. I may give fedora a try, but I’m way too lazy to switch back and forth between os’s depending on how dark the room I’m in is.

I’d love to switch, but my laptop makes that quite hard and the computer still has years in it before I probably need to think about replacing it.

I’ve got an asus rog and sometimes need the backlight on the keyboard. As far as I could tell, no one had figured out how to do it without the windows only asus made software.

I wonder if it’s the cost of data processing the inputs on servers. The ongoing costs of having software handle it on the client machine is close to $0.

Though it feels like democratizing the checks could work. Like, everyone within a match together is checked by everyone else in real time since they’re all handling the objects moving around anyways.

Though there are probably many good reasons why that doesn’t work or is extremely hard to implement consistently. The idea just came to me

Good to hear! I love that the path of exile community did similar.

I use them. I’ve found the speeds to be quite acceptable, plenty fast enough to play video games and download movies.

I started to learn some of that during the pandemic. With a good square, circular saw, and drill you can get started. I’ve gotten into building some relatively simple furniture now and am basically just using those tools still.

Put these taxes into research?

The main reason why I prefer to take the time to write the commands is so I can save a note of what commands I ran to get it working. Being able to say tthese are the commands" is much easier when I’m either helping someone repeat my work or auditing to figure out what I broke

I have the same experience. At my last company they only used Google meet so I had chrome on my computer just for meetings and nothing else.

I’ll be happy when the leadership is gone. So many fucked things happened under their watch. The over watch player being fired then rehired because they said free Hong Kong. Or the announcers who were fired because they were on screen when the player said something. The pile of sexual harassment cases that blizzard settled. Then the obvious intense money grab that their games have become.

Oh how I miss RiF…

What does MAP stand for? I’m a bit wary to use a web search to look it up

Linux on the WAM show recently talked about how much he loved his foldable phone. I’d love to try one out myself but I’m with you on price. $1800 for a phone is way too much. That’s a months rent for something I’d be terrified to drop or get stolen

Everyone here seems to think this’ll be another nail in their coffin. But I’m not sure. As far as I know, they’re the only steaming platform that’s actually profitable. Plus any current users of that plan are getting grandfathered in, so they’re just removing the option for new people which I think is pretty normal for services to do.

Only they know how many people are on the 720p plan. And I’d bet they’ve run the numbers to know that they’ll make more revenue from new users who sign up for the higher tier than the revenue lost from users no longer being able to select this plan.

I don’t think that’s what they meant. I’m pretty sure it was a reference to twitter limiting the number of posts a user can see.

Though it seems google is going to limit the number of videos someone can see if they have an adblocker installed.

It’s been fun, beat the main story. It’s really short though which is kinda disappointing. Realized that if I had a friend the co-op would probably be a blast
