    For that project to work, you have to replace the brains of the PicoCalc with something that can run Linux, so you might as well just connect the display of a Ti-84 up to a Raspi w…

    Personally, I self-host it myself. All the hosts I tried either errored often, or gave search results that were complete garbage.

    I might've misread the article, but wasn't it not the CEO who caused this, it was some marketers who chose the slogan and the branding, who then shipped it off to managers, who app…

    Apples aren't oranges. Making achievements in nuclear power will, 99% of the time, not apply to hydro. What are you trying to say?

    I looked through RFC 2373 and found precisely nothing. Which RFC?

    It works fine for me on NixOS (Linux), with a recent kernel version and no weird config options - or at least I think so.

    The brackets are only needed for URLs, scp, and a few other things, due to the fact that ports are specified with colons. Usually you don't see them in a CIDR.

    I don't understand what this would be useful for. The Linux terminal app on Android (check Developer settings if you want it) already exists and it uses hardware accelerated virtua…

    Why wouldn't it? All you need is a binder device for Android IPC and root access to launch Waydroid. It should work perfectly fine when installed and used with Wayland.

    I might be mistaken, but isn't this what libraries like winit exist for? It might not be just for wayland, but it seems like it supports everything you mentioned other than drag an…

    I don't understand? I did some basic research, and it doesn't seem like these cameras have air quality sensors. How exactly would some Android cameras reduce pollution?

    It uses Alpine Linux, which includes busybox as coreutils by default.

    It looks like there's a torrent with all the data and code[0, 1], which only takes up about 750GB, so a $60 1TB SSD (or an even cheaper hard drive) would fit it. Might want to take…

    For Linux to gain 5% marketshare, I really doubt it "barely works" on a "limited set of hardware that it was designed for". It can run headless on basically anything better than a …
