DOCSIS (AKA internet service over coaxial cable) deals in some number of bonded channels, meaning portions of the total available bandwidth on the wire. They asymmetrically allocate channels to download speeds to overcome the limitations of the older copper wire technology. 100Mbps symmetrical is beyond what most of their existing “Broadband” infrastructure can support in rural and underserved areas, so they complained about it being unreasonable. 100Mbps symmetrical is certainly possible over DOCSIS, but speeds are only as fast as the weakest link… And there are a helluva lot of weak links outside of high population density areas.

Arch on my home server, Zorin on my laptop

Microsoft’s blog adds caveats, such as that Excel avoids the conversion by saving the data as text, which means the data may not work for calculations later. There’s also a known issue where you can’t disable the conversions when running macros.

I really wish the WSL extension wasn’t locked behind VS Code. My workflow is heavily reliant on it which locks me into the proprietary IDE.

Yep, you can download their “Desktop Editors”

To be clear, I definitely agree that this is a bad idea.

However, one of the hardest things about making autonomous cars work is avoiding traffic and pedestrians. If air traffic control can be managed such that these avoid other aircraft (and things like buildings and cell towers, obviously) I could actually see this as easier to get the software working.

The commit added Ukrainian translations to the install instructions. Most were vanilla, but at the end of the file they added some statements with things like “Oh no, this is inappropriate for your sensitive religion”. I’m not quoting exactly here, for obvious reasons.

Maybe apps will finally feel free to bundle LAME instead of forcing you to download it externally!

Yeah, I made the mistake of running Hyprland on a fresh arch install and was super confused at the lack of terminal 😅

100% in the same boat. WSL and VSCode is basically a requirement for me, and codium can’t do the WSL linking.

Just want to shout out to reviewbrah for giving us this absolute gem of a phrase

This is the real blow. Truly the end of an era.

Creating a driver requires a deep understanding of some pretty low-level pieces of Linux. If you’re new to Linux, you should probably start with some “new to Linux” tutorials and get an understanding of some basic command line usage. Work your way up to being able to follow a guide on compiling the Linux kernel (without any of your own modifications). After that, you can seek out guides on creating a driver.

As a second note, fingerprint drivers are categorically difficult to work with, so this would really be jumping in on the deepest of deep ends. You can do it! But it will take a LOT of self-education.

My strategy too. I have a piece of paper with my bitwarden credentials (password and OTP code) and a list of important items like bank accounts, utilities on autopay, etc.

I review it with my spouse every year and update anything out of date.

I completely believe that, assuming it’s one of the non-4K sticks. The older generation models are rather wimpy and slow (we had one that we replaced for exactly this reason), but any of the newer 4K-capable devices have been snappy and responsive.

I recommend a Roku streaming stick or a Roku streambar if you need a decent sound bar too. That’s what we use on our “smart” TVs and I hate ads too. Full disclosure: they do put one ad on the homescreen off to the side, but none in the actual content apps. You’ll only see it while between apps.

You maybe know this but GitAhead was discontinued, and the maintained fork is called Gittyup: https://github.com/Murmele/Gittyup

Open source is a definite plus, but tbh not a requirement for me. Actively maintained, free, Windows and Linux, and simple. Oh, and it has to have a dark theme 😄

Fork is only “free” in that the evaluation period is indefinite. This is generous and clicking through the nag isn’t a huge deal, but I develop on both Linux and Windows and I need a client that supports both.

Unfortunately, GitLens is by GitKraken. Seems like they might not restrict it for private repos, though, I’ll check it out.
