Almost every one of the fingerprint sensors in laptops are not supported by Linux due to proprietary protocols. Never managed to get stuff used by Dell or HP with Linux.

But the Grow R503 can be used over uart, what can be connected to usb with some minor additional parts.

Yes, it would be unfortunate for a new user to experience all the horror our distinguished friend EvilSocket is telling everyone today…

Keep up the good work!

Did you uninstall cups and avahi?

This is just the beginning…

Cars.

• mechanical, no software bugs
• physical buttons, no touch screen
• everything just worked, no need to license the heating of your chair
• freaking lane assist

You get it…

Esp32Cam with esphome running a webserver, add frigate in the mix and you can have dozens of cameras for just a few bucks.

Completely open source (apart from the espressif wifi radio stack, but who’s counting) and low cost.

Yes, quality of the camera will never compete with commercial stuff, but this is way more fun. Add as much cameras as your frigate instance allows…

Gonna recommend this to all my co workers.

It is not vulnerable to Windows viruses.

:-)

Yes, physically getting bigger.

Dell XPS had a batch laptops going crazy and pushing the touchpad up.

You will recognize it :-)

This.

Using a CEC link will make things even more simple, but that might involve additional hardware. Those raspberry thingies have native CEC on hdmi. For x86 you might have to look at some extra hardware.

And of course, Kodi is an example of a 10 foot interface.

Thanks for the pointer.

This is really huge, but people don’t quite understand that yet.

If this wasn’t caught, every system -running public sshd- could be hacked or abused/misused.

And I completely agree with the last words, corporate should pay foss projects!

Totally agree. People using cli are probably more skilled and their knowledge has been fed into these ai models.

So we will all end up with some mediocre level of knowledge, because the next input for the LLM 's will be more of the some old stuff. Flattening the curve and less innovation and smart ideas.

These kind of “solutions” are for a non existing problem. Looking at the investors, this is only about making money.

I mis understood, sms is pretty much history over here, so I considered you where looking for some way of sending messages to your phone.

Pushover supports a simple api, which can be used with curl. A la: https://support.pushover.net/i44-example-code-and-pushover-libraries#unix

Does https://pushover.net/ work for you? Been using it for several years, works really well and can be used in several applications.

Or some minor scripting with curl.

Forgejo ftw!

Self hosting here, also with runners to create a complete ci/cd line.

Cars. Either entertainment system or navigation or more…

BMW has quite the list of licences for opensource libraries and Linux in the about section of the car-menu.

And more and more network equipment.

I compliment you for your knowledge 😊

LMGTFY

Use zip, rar or other tooling to split it into parts and reassemble on the destination.

Or use another filesystem, compatible with both targets.

Noticed someone mentioning this (the product ) last weekend and did a next-next-finish install on some old hardware.

This is really nice, got me some nice actions running already.

I used to build locally and use git, cgit and Trac, but will probably move everything to forgejo.
