That’s a user from Mastodon. Lemmy is part of the fediverse so any ActivityPub capable server can see Lemmy posts (it just might be formatted a bit differently). From their end they’re replying to a toot.

A microscope is explicitly required IMO. I would definitely not attempt the mod without one.

Yes, newer switches need a modchip. They’re dirt cheap these days but require microsoldering- not for the faint of heart, ESPECIALLY for the Lite and OLED switches.

That might be it- my screen is configured to turn on when tilted up, too. I’ll try that out.

How are you getting multiple weeks? Mine barely lasts a few days.

Look into MakeMKV. It’s “free” while in beta (in practice you need to input a new license key from their forums occasionally, so inconvenient unless you buy a real license) and can rip Blu-Rays with no issue. For ripping 4K, though, you’ll need a drive that supports LibreDrive which bypasses all of the drive’s built-in DRM. I personally use an LG BU40N in a Vantec external enclosure.

Not particularly, the workflow on your Arch system will be the same as any other distro, that’s the nice thing about Distrobox.

I would highly recommend looking into the distrobox-assemble command, though: it lets you declaratively build distroboxes with the packages and config you need on them. I have a personal box which operates as my primary terminal that’s automatically destroyed and recreated on every boot. This way, the packages I always use in a terminal are available, and I can add something I need temporarily with no issue without worrying about forgetting about that package being there down the line and causing some weird update failure or general bloat.

It does take some adjusting- the pitfalls you’d encounter with Distrobox on Universal Blue are the same as Distrobox on any other distro, so first I’d say to try moving your workflow to Flatpak and Distrobox on your current system or a VM and see how it works out. Generally Flatpak is preferred to a rootless Distrobox which is preferred to a rootful one, but sometimes there’s not a Flatpak for something (especially command line tools) and you need access to hardware or system level stuff that only a rootful one can do properly.

That’s because of a difference on protocol (iMessage vs SMS). This wouldn’t matter if they chose to support RCS which is effectively the Android iMessage equivalent and is an open standard (on paper, not necessarily in practice) but that will never happen.

I think there’s still value in it from being a DE-agnostic GUI solution, for what it’s worth.

You realize Opera is the exact same engine, right?

Isn’t Endless immutable?

I can agree with this, my Darter has horrendous battery life and had a ton of bugs that made the thing really annoying to use until a recent BIOS update. I can’t help but feel like I got burned.

Next laptop is a Framework for sure.

Are we sure this isn’t just for clarity? “Language model” implies Bard and such already as they’re more formally called “large language models.” While I don’t like that they’re doing it, I think it’s very likely they’ve been publicly scraping information for quite some time (in fact, for an LLM like Bard, they pretty much have to!), and have just changed the wording to fully disambiguate between Google Translate and Bard.

Look into the app Repainter. It isn’t free and needs root or Shizuku access but does the trick.

Fully agreed- I experimented with it around November of last year and absolutely love the idea of it, but the documentation just isn’t there. At the time I found nothing explaining flakes in a clear and concise manner so I had no idea how to use them or add them into my configs. People online kept saying to port the rest of my configuration to flakes but all of the examples online were complex and there was no simple example to build off of. I ended up settling for Universal Blue since it just uses OCI containers and I don’t need a PhD to have a pseudo-declarative environment in it, but would love to revisit NixOS if the documentation ever gets better.

Yeah the original skin I had was a nightmare to install but looked okayish after it was done. Looks great in a case, though (it’s the Killswitch case so it comes with a cut-down version of the skin that just covers the front a bit)

I fully agree otherwise- I have an atomic purple Switch with the Extremerate shells and it looks fantastic. They make good stuff.

I would do this in a heartbeat if I didn’t already have a skin and case on mine, it would be pointless :(
