Read the article. This is a MacOS problem, not a Logitech problem.

The main buttons worked fine, only the specially configured extra buttons didn’t work. Those buttons require a configuration program. There’s no evidence this program needed an Internet connection.

But MacOS blocks all software that doesn’t have an approved certificate. It’s basically the same walled garden as phones. Logitech’s certificate expired.

It only affected Mac users, and only because of the walled garden.

The welfare fraud claims were always bullshit. The only evidence was in idiot right-wing youtube video.

How do you get this? My company has the Enterprise version, but when they forced me to switch to a new Windows 11 laptop (same model and specs as my old one which couldn’t be upgraded to Windows 11 for some reason), it came with all the crap in the article. Ads in the start menu and everything.

All of January, really.

Sapphire Safari is sorta like that. It’s basically Pokemon Snap, but porn.

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.

In those days, the predecessors that would become Christianity hadn’t invented the abstinence rules yet.

The Fan-Created Content Guidelines are not a contract that PETA has entered into. There are no grounds for a lawsuit for breach of contract, for copyright infringement, or for anything else.

Corn ethanol isn’t really renewable either. It works better if made from sugarcane, but it’s still a big food-vs-fuel problem.

Renewable liquid fuels have the same energy density.

I believe two reasons: first, political will. Fossil fuel companies are large and entrenched, and have lots of experience lobbying governments. They block things like carbon taxes.

Second, a strange sort of game theory where each player (each country) thinks “My individual contributions to greenhouse gasses are just a small part of the total. They won’t cause global catastrophe. Just an incremental increase in the existing catastrophe. The incremental harm won’t fall directly on me; it will be divided among many countries. If continuing to use fossil fuels provides some small economic advantage, it outweighs the portion of the harms that will land on me. As for the harms I experience from other countries’ carbon emissions, there’s nothing I can do to prevent them.”

The atmega328 and stm32f411 are good. Both are well documented, have boards available with good peripherals, and plenty of other hobbyist projects on them.

The atmega328 is 8-bit. It was made by Atmel, which was a great company until they got bought by Microchip a decade ago. Their IDE sucks now, but you can still program them with other tools and IDEs.

The stm32f411 is 32-bit, a bit more recent, and a bit more expensive. ST microelectronics has great documentation and hobbyist support.

These are microcontrollers, so you’ll be running without an operating system. If you want embedded Linux, you’ll need something with an MMU and more power than a microcontroller.

This is illegal in some places. It should be illegal everywhere in the US.

The EPA definition would exclude chemicals like trifluoroethanol, so the EPA’s definition is narrower, not broader.

From a strict organic chemistry perspective, trifluoroethanol contains a perfluorinated methyl group, and methyl is a type of alkyl, therefore it must be considered a PerFluoro Alkyl Substance.

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.

Medusa is apparently so ugly that looking at her turns you to stone. And she’s ugly because her hair is snakes.

But what if I like snakes? Can I feed the snek a cricket I caught earlier in the dungeon?
