Pretty cool!

Some nice examples:

Analog synthesizer controlled by accelerometer: https://magic-gold-z13d9k.manyminiapps.com/


This is really cool! I am having trouble getting my iPhone to make sounds, so I couldn't quite test the accelerometer. But on the laptop just the default sounds is really pleasing.


Exactly the other way around for me! I've been using screen since forever, and had no idea it could do that. Minicom I still know from the dialup dark ages.


When I worked with embedded systems, I used both, and didn't really understand the differences and nuances between them, and now I wish I did.


C-o here. And C-x or C-p on a few rare nested screens in one particular screen session that I always have open. Those are identified by differently colored tabs in the hardstatus bar which is always visible.


Nice! Watching this. I started something myself but don't move quite as fast.


So, essentially, you have to disable mobile data as well as wifi calling, thus disabling the ability to be called entirely until they release the march patch. Nice..


I know in the Netherlands they have these little 'cars', that are essentially mopeds with a roof slapped onto them. They are speed-limited to 30mph and crash safety is on par with what you'd expect from a moped. You can drive these with a moped license (easy and early to get). You can only drive on roads limited to 50mph (most state roads and inner city roads).

I'm not sure why this is allowed as these things are noisy, unsafe, and hold up all other traffic. And they are not limited to disabled people either, anyone can drive these.

They used to look terrible and nobody wanted to drive them, but since they don't require a full driver's license and are not taxed annually, they have become more popular, and now look mostly like regular cars.

Search for 'brommobiel' or 'mini car' to get some examples.

That last 'car' has a whopping 8 hp.


Double rot13 just to be sure.


It's 2020 and we're under threat from state-level hackers. We need quadruple rot13!


:-)


I've decided to remove bad word filtering and all other censoring. Let's see how it goes.


Thank you :)


Epic!


You might not hear it anymore by now if you are still of a CRT generation since that tone is 16kHz and you quickly lose the ability to hear it.


The immune system in the elderly also deteriorates with age, so it's not as effective.


I'm a power user and have been using linux since the early days. Support has actually never been this good. Mostly due to standards in buses and hardware. Even GPU support is relatively good despite the closed-natured mindset.

I'd still never recommend it to anyone who wants something that "just works" though. It will never be on the same level as that needs a ginormous organisation to provide testing, support, documentation. Especially if you follow the Windows model with all the hardware support vs the Mac model.
