My main issue is the lack of xdotool support. It can’t ever be supported because of the way Wayland isolates processes from each other.

Has any software ever entered the public domain through copyright expiration? I think software at least 70 years old (125 years for corporate created) when its copyright expires prevents it from being any benefit at all.

Remember Memristors? They’re commercially available today, at 200 EUR per bit.

Three years ago, I replaced a failing SATA SSD in my personal laptop with a new SATA SSD. That laptop had plenty of power, and I’d still be using it today if the keyboard still worked, and the screen hinges weren’t cracked. It had no NVME slots.

The usual way for me is to give certbot write access to a directory in the HTTP root, so the server can keep running.

For internal stuff, it may be easier to set up your own CA.

Windows 98 had god usability. The buttons and controls all had borders, so you could know where they are. In Windows 11, everything is flat, nothing has a border, so you can never know where the interactive area is.

Try to get as much as possible off Windows. You can transfer the remaining Windows-only programs to a virtual machine in snapshot mode, or if necessary, a real machine with a backed up image, that you can reimage regularly.

Not everyone can get off Windows. But get as much as you can. Isolate what’s left.

You can butt-stuff-shame people who would have condemned others for doing butt stuff.

Thanks, that looks a little better, but still missing things like sending keystrokes to non-active windows. (Also, I’m on Mate desktop on most my computers.)

I just need xdotool. ydotool is missing almost everything. I don’t need programs sandboxed from each other. I don’t need that multi-DPI stuff (200% scaling works fine in X). Wayland doesn’t provide any features I’m missing.

They used to use analog computers to solve differential equations, back when every transistor was expensive (relays and tubes even more so) and clock rates were measured in kilohertz. There’s no practical purpose for them now.

In cases of number theory, and RSA cryptography, you need even more precision. They combine multiple integers together to get 4096-bit precision.

If you’re asking about the 24-bit ADC, I think that’s usually high-end audio recording.

The maximum theoretical precision of an analog computer is limited by the charge of an electron, 10^-19 coulombs. A normal analog computer runs at a few milliamps, for a second max. So a max theoretical precision of 10^16, or 53 bits. This is the same as a double precision (64-bit) float. I believe 80-bit floats are standard in desktop computers.

In practice, just getting a good 24-bit ADC is expensive, and 12-bit or 16-bit ADCs are way more common. Analog computers aren’t solving anything that can’t be done faster by digitally simulating an analog computer.

Rednote is a proprietary app-only non-federated social network subject to the censorship of a totalitarian government, China. It blocks discussion of 6/4, Free Hong Kong, Uyghur genocide, and probably all the other stuff normally censored in China. I encourage any skeptics to visit the Chinese Wikipedia from within China.

The simplest explanation is that OP doesn’t have good opsec, and got a few tracking cookies after deleting cookies, before setting up their proxy/VPN. Then, on the VPN, the advertiser recognized their VPN IP address, and chose to exclude that from generating location data, deferring instead to the location indicated in their existing tracking cookies.

Privacy is hard. The system is rigged against privacy. You have to do everything perfectly, because one simple mistake could leak your IP address.

No person should have to pledge loyalty to the party to graduate. I don’t think you could sue for this in China. The party controls everything.

It would be a more meaningful discussion if the government wasn’t controlled so much by large corporations and oligarchs.

Why should I care? There’s no inherent reason lotteries deserve to exist. There are several reasons they shouldn’t exist.

Inkjet printers are good for furry artists who sell prints at conventions. Hmm… that’s actually so specific that it reinforces your point.

Everyone already had the choice to use this before. You can visit any site with a search box, and add that site as a search engine to Firefox.

This is forcing it down people’s throats.
