You're right, it's some FUTO license and has some limitations that make it not FOSS.

The FUTO keyboard has swipe tying, but it's not as fluid imo

Maybe Niagara Launcher, though I'm quite happy to pay the dev a bit of money (not required for most stuff actually, I only login on my phone)

Until recently I'd have said Symfonium for music playback from Jellyfin, but the Finamp beta gave me an OSS alternative.

Ideally banking apps, booking.com and TripAdvisor all had FOSS alternatives, but that's not realistic.

Yeah, for the new Qualcomm chips they're using in the Windows for ARM devices. Not sure if they still need device trees to work properly or if they have an UEFI like.

Could you add just one or two screenshots please?

Did you do it?

It's based on Lineage, so lots

Isn't he still pretty involved in the project? I only followed the Rossmann story for a bit until I encountered random attacks on microg in the issue for Mozilla Location Services shutting down.

There's also this random attack on alternative location services by GrapheneOS.

(Some surrounding discussion on the article can be found here (microg issue for MLS retiring))

Overall, Graphene does not seem like a friendly project in my opinion.

Are there and plans for improving/writing documentation? This was always a lacking area for nix

PC = Microsoft™️ PC according to this article

You can self host your identity provider and use OIDC to connect Tailscale. I myself use Authentik, a more established alternative in enterprise is Keycloak

 

I know where Linux, but this was too good not to share.
Red was the first output, green when I told it to continue, blue on the second continue. It really didn't want to talk about Microsoft.

User exu: "I made an Intune policy that creates a firewall rule and assigned it to a user. Intune reports a successful execution, but I can't find it in the firewall rules."

Bot Judy response 1: "Ugh, typical Microsoft shit. They're always trying to pull the wool over our eyes with their ""successful"" reports that don't actually work as intended. Let me take a look at your setup and see if we can figure out what went wrong. It might just need some manual intervention."

User prompts to continue

Bot Judy response 2: she rolls her eyes

User prompts to continue

Bot Judy response 3: "I'm assuming you've already tried the usual troubleshooting steps, right? Like checking the device's compliance status and making sure the user is actually in the scope of the policy? If not, let's start there."

 

This might be a stupid question, but hear me out.
I regularly document steps to install various software for myself on my wiki
More recently, I managed to use different custom text in the source markdown to prepend # and $ automatically, so commands can be copied more easily while still clarifying if it should be run as a normal user or as root.

Run command as user

$ some cool command

Run command as root/superuser with sudo

# some dangerous command

I usually remove and sudo and use the # prefix. However, in some cases, the sudo actually does something different that needs to be highlighted. For example, I might use it to execute a command as the user www-data

sudo -u www-data cp /var/www/html/html1 /var/www/html/html2

I often use $ as a prefix, but # would also make sense.
How would you prefix that line?

 

I hope it's alright to post this question here. Please direct me to a more appropriate commuity if not.
Anyways, my sister's looking for a new laptop and I decided to lend my expertise. I've got a list of various requirements, but maybe some of them are too strict or I'm missing something.

Usage

  • Mostly office & webbrowser
  • Some light gaming (Minecraft, SWTOR, Drakensang)
  • Youtube playback in the background while gaming

Current laptop

HP Pavilion x360 - 14-ba070nz

Hard Requirements

Stuff that's absolutely required

  • Budget 700€ - 900€
  • 14" screen size
  • <1.6 kG weight
  • min. wifi 5 (802.11ac)
  • >250cd/m^2 display brightness
  • all-day battery life (>8h)
  • Windows 11 (I won't evangelize Linux to her)

Soft Requirements

Additional requirements I thought off, though I'm open to modifying those

  • >4 core CPU
  • 16GB RAM (Most laptops still come with 8GB. Is that ok for current year multitasking on Windows?)
  • >480GB storage (I'll have to check her current usage with her, maybe 256GB is fine?)
  • 2x USB-A ports
  • USB-C charging
  • HDMI/DP Port
  • internal GPU only (the games run okish on the old laptop already, so anything newer should also be better)

Some options

These are some options I found. I'd like to hear some thoughts/opinions on those. (links are to the UK site for english language, for prices I'm looking at the german site variant)

Thoughts, comments, experiences?
