I've seen reports of the fediverse getting a bump in users. End of the day you will almost never see news about it because it has no marketing budget, and offers no investment oppo…

Why is that suprising? There is no logical reasoning happening, it has no concept of right and wrong, let alone that it can force a specific percentage of wrongness.

the t480 has two batteries! one internal and one removable. The laptop using the `tlp` package and a WM like i3wm - which I prefer for functional reasons - discharges at around 5 w…

Highly recommend this: you can hit 50% to 70% discount from original price, plus contribute to reducing e-waste. I've been using a third-hand T480 for many (5? 7? Can't even rememb…

If nothing else, the tree ul-list css class is good enough that it should be part of the HTML spec (as in: a tag) imo. What an incredibly useful thing that is.

TIL about worktrees, a feature I've needed in the past but didn't expect to even exist.

Impressive writeup. The deterministic aspect is not super popular anymore, I guess, but this entire post does make me wonder how the networking layer compares to a slightly more mo…

That is entirely dependent on the type of steroidal nosespray. There are types that don't cause dependence or stuffy nose when not used.

I disagree, because I believe it's quite difficult to write in that uncanny valley of particularly creepy texts, without showing any matching creepy imagery.

Yes, but the reality is that EC2 is optimized for a target audience who wants to customize the deployment beyond a linux box with a public IP. But iirc following the "Launch Instan…

You're probably right, and battery life varies a bit day-to-day. I haven't done a formal test to double check my statements above, more just a feeling. I've had the phone for a whi…

OMG I got this update and modem resume has been flawless since!!! Thanks for your hard work to get this fixed!

Not great. With suspend enabled and if I don't use it much, about 8 hours to 0%. If I leave it on (i.e. disable suspend), about 3 hours. I'm honestly almost always near a charger, …

yes, daily driving for 2 years now. * it's good. works well, apps reflow nicely, can run a lot of stuff simultaneously without memory issues. There is a nasty kernel bug relating t…

This is, imo, not a google-problem, but a non-FLOSS problem.

When you don't have enough background knowledge to even verify whether the answer is plausible. Or when you don't know what question to ask. It may very well be that newer AIs and …

I was referencing (very implictely) the current seated PM saying that The Netherlands "doesn't have to be the best kid in class", with the EU being the class, and then proceeding b…

He calls that "Focus on vertical slices".

Absolutely not gonna happen: the current Dutch govt. ideologically refuses to be the best (often even "good") at anything.

I spent some time thinking about this when the GPTs started becoming useful, and I'm glad to see my semi-prediction come true (related toot: https://fosstodon.org/@samuelnorbury/10…

Ha! I've actually been facing this same problem on a t440s. thanks for posting the fix!

It's pretty niche, but as a Linux phone user I can see the appeal: with a device like this I can totally get rid of a standalone laptop. For situations where you can easily connect…

I gave this a couple of tries but my vim muscle memory is actively hurting me the longer I try... I would love if this had a - at least somewhat closer to - vim-mode, because all t…
