    Clearly the dark mode is the modern one! Jokes aside, I just realized that there THREE menu options on that toolbar: hamburger, kebab, and waffle! I realize they do different things, but no wonder people are confused by and scared of computers. Also, now I'm hungry!

    That's right. zsh is POSIX compliant while fish is not. That's the reason I switched to zsh from fish.

    That's right, to add a bit more color, any of Proton mail paid plans allows you to use Proton Bridge (which runs locally and speaks IMAP to your mail client).

    Yes, Gitea is a hard-fork of Gogs and started years ago. Forgejo is a soft-fork of Gitea when the primary authors of Gitea created a company of the same name to provide paid support (there's history there you can look up) but Gitea remains free and open source. Forgejo, supported by Codeberg, is a community fork and will upstream to Gitea.

    Gitea/Forgejo is a great option, they recently even added build actions which are compatible with Github Actions.

    It's still a good thing. It's an open specification, so anyone creating a design that is compliant can use software targeted at RISC-V. Just like you can buy USB-C flash drive from any manufacturer and use it with any OS that supports USB mass storage!

    I like Pop on it quite a bit. There are some easy guides to get the fingerprint sensor working but everything else works out of the box. Linux in general needs a few tweaks (via tlp) to get better sleep states. I am looking forward to Ryzen though, I have pretty high hopes for it!

    Nice, congrats! The camera and microphone switches are better than slide covers, they cut power to those sensors. It's kinda cool that it's become so standard for Framework that it's not discussed much anymore but it definitely deserves more attention. It was one of the many selling features for me when I pre-ordered the first gen framework (11th gen Intel).

    Just to clarify the entire Logseq app is open source including the sync mechanism, the server backend to receive the sync endpoint and store the data isn't. I use Syncthing (FOSS and cross platform) to sync noted between my devices.

    Same boat as you, except running Pop!_OS, can't wait for the Ryzen board (batch 4). I think I'll pick up the new battery at some point. Between the increase in capacity, my current battery being down to 85% capacity, and Ryzen I'm dreaming of a 9 hour laptop.

    I'm in the exact same boat as @zrb@astrodon.social except I've been running pop!_OS and I'm Ryzen batch 4. I love everything about the framework, and looking forward to expected better battery with Ryzen. I'm glad they switched to the matte displays, that was a negative but I put a film on and that's been great.

    It's awesome you made something cool. Does it essentially function as a keylogger though? If so, might be a good idea to give users an indication of that and how to stay safe (not from your application but just not becoming conformable installing keylogger type application without consideration). Thanks for making something cool and sharing!

    Logseq fits the bill. By default it opens today's date journal page and I just type everything into that and tag it (you can tag at any bullet level within the note). You can also create hierarchical tags like #topic/subtopic1 #topic/subtopic2, so the note will show up for topic regardless of the subtopic.

    I would recommend looking into Syncthing. I use it on all my devices and share specific folders between devices (notes mostly) and all folders back to the server. The server then backs all that up offsite as well.

    Exactly! During the cooler months a flatwhite in the midafternoon is nice perk-up, but entirely unappealing in the summer. The other thing that's great in a hot summer afternoon is an espresso affogato!

    While this is a valid advice normally, OP has already tried this with Linux on a netbook and a dual boot chromebook. Since OP wants to do AV stuff it's probably going to be a lot better experience with a desktop (assuming more capable than laptop) and monitor(s). Going another laptop route might be fine for learning but OP wants to switch and that's not going to happen unless it's on OP's main rig.

    My advice would be leave the windows installation alone and add a new drive (SSDs are pretty cheap these days) and install Linux on that. Use the BIOS to set the default drive to the new Linux drive and install and use Linux. You'll have your windows install exactly how it is when you want to go back and just pick that as the boot device from the boot menu. Making Linux the default boot drive also helps with habit forming.

    VirtualBox is free and open source, the windows guest additions piece is not. However, they're both available for free download from the same site and they do not make any distinction between those two (at least at the time, haven't looked). They were waiting for companies to download the guest additions piece and going after them to shake down licensing fees. While I don't recall/know exactly, it seemed like they were almost exclusively going after companies they already had commercial relationships with to add more licensing fees to existing contracts. So yes, from my perspective they were shaking down customers after trying to entrap them with ambiguous free downloads. They had the legal right to do so, but it felt in bad faith.

    Work around: upgrade to 0.0.35 and avoid crashing

    I've been seeing a lot of posts about people being stuck between server (lemmy 0.18) and client (Jerboa 0.0.33—35) versions (not installed from IzzyOnDroid and logged in) with Jerboa crashing. Here's a way to avoid that issue while still being able to log in and browse both Lemmy 0.18 or older instances. * Add IzzyOnDroid repo to F-Droid * Delete app data from Android app info (edit) * Uninstall current version of Jerboa * Install 0.0.33 IzzyOnDroid version of Jerboa * Set phone to Airplane mode * Open Jerboa and use the hamburger menu to add your account * Fill in server, username, and password * Turn off Airplane mode * Login You'll get a old server version notification of your server hasn't updated but you'll be able to use Jerboa regardless of server version. Hope this helps!

    1950s Bendix Central Air Data Computer used in fighter planes oldbytes.space

    Fighter planes in the 1950s used the  Bendix Central Air Data Computer to determine air speed, mach number, altitude and so forth from pressure. It is electromechanical, using gears and synchros for its computations. Amazingly, it is modular and can be easily disassembled. We separated the top layer from the rest for testing. The "interface" between the layers is two gears and an electrical connection. The electronic servo amplifier blocks come off too. (3 photos in link)

I would love to have a Remarkable 2 type device built-in instead of having yet another device to carry and charge.

I'm also curious as to why more folks don't use https://liberapay.com/ especially the more federated/FOSS minded folks.
