I have a Lenovo ThinkBook with the 27c6:550a for which I used https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/libfprint-2-tod1-goodix which worked for me. They downloaded the driver from Lenovo…

Can confirm. I speak 3 languages (A (English), B (my mother tongue) and C). For most of my life I monologued in some combination of A and B. When I was a NEET for a couple years it…

I miss it :(

>The Instagram appeals process is to email them a selfie, holding a piece of paper with the current date and something else written on it. Do they also ask you to put a shoe on you…

That's funny, I've always hated it when someone turned on the TV or put on some music in the same room as me because it disturbed my inner monologue.

>Does anyone know why the leaves are initially so dark and then become lighter? Is that common in plants? From what I've seen it's common in at least a subset of plants, that fresh…

XMPP if you're willing to host it yourself.

I don't know what a self-hosted service that lets every user have power over the instance would look like, but the original argument was that IRC gives you ownership over your own …

To be fair that takeover was only possible because the owner of freenode sold the server to a malicious party which is only possible because you own the server, so that kinda reinf…

Their largest audience is "journalists" who wouldn't be happy with something like that.

Most wikis or resource/documentation sites have a local search bar on their homepage, Firefox has a feature where it lets you add a search keyword for that specific site. So if you…

That's not what parent said at all, if anything he meant the very opposite. He was just suggesting missing features. The site is a nice tiny project but it's not what you'd expect …

That saying is meant for commercialized products obviously. But it's still kind of true if you stretch it to FOSS software, the allegory would be that you pay for it with your time…

>there is no evidence it's in any way related to "criticizing dislike removal" That was the last thing he commented which strongly suggests it is. The other few comments he showed …

Youtube Shorts is just a frontend, you can watch those videos with the same UI as regular youtube by changing the url from youtube.com/shorts/xyz to youtube.com/watch?v=xyz.

>He casually says stuff like school closures will haunt society for 100 years Well maybe you can accuse him of exaggerating but it's true to an extent. In my (third world) country …

I know devs who do free giveaways through steam keys once in a while so presumably there is a provision in place for that too.

Yep, for me it's this. I don't know why others are complaining about the other way around, maybe it's because I thought of Emacs as being different from other editors right from th…

No inbuilt documentation system called Index?

Really? If someone asked you if exclamation marks in usernames would cause problems before you were aware of this, would you have said yes? It's a very common special character, it…

Do they ship here? A lot of products shipping from China have trouble getting to India.

It's "functional" but has too many caveats that make it a pain to use on a daily basis. Like, tabs don't update while in the background, it keeps killing tabs after some time, scro…

Yep, Firefox android is impossible to use if you do anything non-trivial and has so many quirks. It's been over a year since the rewrite so I don't know what they're doing.

Sorry, I didn't mean that in a derogatory way. I just meant twitch users pay for the sake of giving money to their favorite streamers rather than paying for a product. Strip clubs …
