Oh I’ll agree that sometimes Bluetooth pairing can be finicky.
But the person I replied to was talking about how Bluetooth is not good enough for audiophile quality headphones. But most people don’t care and can’t even notice the difference.
You are right. But for >99% of users Bluetooth is a perfectly sufficient connection format for headphones.
I feel like most casual users would not make the connection of “crawlers” to link previews that they talk about it the article.
Sure, if you understand that robots.txt includes all robots then sure. But that is not how general news media has been talking about robots.txt.
_ can also be used in the python interactive terminal to mean ‘last return value’
Ie:
> 'string'
'string'
> a = _
> print(a)
string
This is very true. Match statements are much more powerful that switch statements in any other language.
For instance:
I’m not sure how many people know this but there is good reason why (at least on android) giving Bluetooth permissions also requires location permissions.
The basic concept is that given enough Bluetooth data an app can pinpoint your location accurately anyways. So the android devs decided that they would just require any app that wanted Bluetooth data would also need to require access to location. That way users would be indirectly informed of the dangers.
Why not just a pop-up to inform of the danger? Probably because most users will click past that warning and not read it.
I haven’t read the article. But I’d assume this is for the same reason that not not string is faster than bool(string). Which is to say that it has to do with having to look up a global function rather than a known keyword.
Labeling arrows is built in. Just double click the line/arrow and it will give you a text field.
100% agree with this.
It is so much faster for me to give the ai the api/library documentation than it would be for me to figure out how that api works. Is it a perfect drop-in, finished piece of code? No. But that is not what I ask the ai for. I ask it for a simple example which I can then take, modify, and rework into my own code.
This is true. And it’s also why I always recommend downloading steam through their website. They distribute their own Deb directly, and it auto updates.
Flatpak version is also okay but if you want to use a secondary disk then you need to know how to use portals (or the Flatpak configuration tool that I can’t remember the name of).
I think there is a value you can put into a /sys file to fix this. Had the same issue on my k10 keyboard. (the fix was easily findable on their forums)
I’m not sure how that applies here.
I am talking about enterprises being able to leverage their current infrastructure to manage their users in Mastodon from a central location, Like AD. Rather than have to manage local accounts.
I am not talking about activitypub in anyway.
I’m not sure on the capabilities of Mastodon. But companies will never go for this if Mastodon doesn’t support saml or active directory (or other Auth systems). It needs to integrate with their enterprise tools.
This might help in the future in case you setup a remote mount for backups in the future. Look into using systemd’s automount feature. If the mount suddenly fails then it will instead create an unwritable directory in its place. This prevents your rsync from erroneously writing data to your root partition instead.
I also like lutris. But it being “for games” doesn’t do it justice I think. It is basically just a wine environment manager. It advertises as being for games but it should work with just about any windows executable.
I did something similar (that my professor still talks about in class as a cautionary tale)
I ran chown -R user .* (intending to target all hidden files in the folder) and for people that don’t know .* also matches .. (.. was / in this case) which changed the permissions on all files on the system to that user, including sudo.
We fixed it by mounting the root of the file system in a docker container which effectively gave us root.
Net neutrality being brought up as an election topic would be very unusual for our politics. Our two party system is very set on the topics that they like and don’t like to bring up.
Of course the parties have negative incentive to do anything more than the bare minimum about these topics that they fight so hard to advertise. Otherwise, they might need to come up with new reasons for people to vote for them.
I am going to put in little shop of horrors since it is a musical. And I really would not consider it horror.
For those of you that don’t know there are actually 2 versions of this movie. The original release version where the plants lose and the ORIGINAL test audience version where the plants win.
Is this effectively the same as: du -hs * | sort -h?
I noticed that too. Thought it was just regular YouTube jank as usual.
