    Customation, and its dangers for the Update System

    To edit the file using pluma, you will need to use sudo pluma /lib/udev/rules.d/pyra-charge-led.rules It might not work if your DISPLAY variable is not set automatically under root. (on my Debian I have kate, and it dies with "Executing Kate with sudo is not possible due to unfixable security...

    Customation, and its dangers for the Update System

    Ooh... Perl. By they way you wrote it, it's before "Modern Perl". Glad I can still read it fluently. Learned that the HEREDOC can be do-ed... interesting form. Props to your own getopts. I like the more concise $LED = ${$args{'-l'}}[0] || "caps" ; over your $LED = $args{ -l } ? ${ $args{ -l }...

    The Communication Cube

    Sounds like you O.D.'ed on coffee. Too bad. I had this beautiful crème caramel/Flan de Huevo with coffee: Here is the classic recipe: https://www.cdkitchen.com/recipes/recs/262/Flan_de_Huevos6901.shtml And if you squint, you might interpolate what she is saying:

    The What Music Are You Listening To Thread

    It's a looong intro. But the dancemoves are tight, and the song starts midway in the video. And this one (not music, they talk about it): Two legends that were in The Time (the band of Price's alterego Jamie Starr) and did music for Janet Jackson, and many others.

    Global Chip Shortage Threatens Production of Laptops, Smartphones and More

    I agree with your statement that there are ultra-light distro's and Linux setup's that fly (figuratively). But the same can be done with Windows: https://beebom.com/what-is-tiny10-lightweight-windows-10-how-to-install/ (I just grabbed the first link I found, so no idea on benchmarks, RAM usage...

    Global Chip Shortage Threatens Production of Laptops, Smartphones and More

    Not so sure about that. I go with the premise that in each economical segment there are wise and idiots. Being poor usually requires some sort of escapism to endure the suffering of life. Drugs, Alcohol... While a millionaire also suffers, yes, but he'd buy a yacht and go splurge in a casino to...

    Global Chip Shortage Threatens Production of Laptops, Smartphones and More

    I got you covered, bro, here's a tutorial for that: https://www.guru99.com/install-linux.html I tried it. And Linux is slower than Windows... so I don't really recommend it. Besides, by using Linux you are stealing from software engineers because Linux Users don't pay for the software. The...

    Because the new ones can be electric now. Just like with bicycles. The normal ones are pedal powered.

    What have you bought recently?

    Is that you or Peony? I'd say those tastes are more Peony. For the Dutch, there's only one Bols: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lucas_Bols

    What have you bought recently?

    How did it taste like? 1660061123 Enjoy your insomnia. While with insomnia, try to make an icecoffee, or buy a jar of sweeted condensed milk and see if you can 50-50 it (or 20-40-40, whiskey, condensedmilk, coffee). That'll keep you going until you reversed your day-night cycle. Why not get out...

    Awful game ideas.

    What a perfectly grounded answer. I was waaaaay overthinking it, then. Apologies. hm... apologies. Sorry, the game: An RPG not unlike Leisure Suit Larry. Where you walk around and people bump into you, then you quickly need to type in "Sorry" in the text box or they'll get aggressive. So you...

    Awful game ideas.

    https://www.bluedragon.it/videogames/chrono_trigger.htm I guess because the game says 2300 AD, and we have agenda 2030 AD and the bad guy is Lavos, and we have Davos... ?!? So 300 years after the appearance of Davos everything is destroyed and devastated (guess the "build back better" did not...

    Awful game ideas.

    Why is Chrono* an awful game idea? 1659986372 I have something similar while playing Genshin Impact. The daily tasks you get rotate and you do basically the same each time. (even the same action at the same location). Then, when you level up, the monsters suddenly get stronger, so you are still...
