Most of the time you can leave a note. Do you get an "Uh..." option?

Digital Subscriber Line? Ah, Domain Specific Languages.

Sigh, so many acronyms.

Man, I remember my first 8MB cost over $400.

This seems apropos given the currentstate if AI in society.

'“A tool.” Most tools come with safeguards or clear consequences for their misuse: GenAI has neither.'

You might see if he would be OK with a flag on a stick attached to the back wheel.

I really liked the American Precision Museum in Windsor, Vermont when I went to visit. https://americanprecision.org/

Seeing his description about the early visits when he was a child reminded me of the City Museum in St Louis.

Kid sized interactive art museum. A place I wish were around when I was grade school age.

Reminds me of the text mode Doom before the ASCII mode video drivers.

I couldn't find the site after a quick search,maybe the wayback machine.

Seems similar to vapor deposition, though probably it looks like particles rather than vaporization.

Do you know if anyone is writing a HomeAssistant integration for this?

Be careful he doesn't burn out. I did pretty early on because it took me a lot more effort to get some things done.

I also am an avid screen user. There are a number of places where I need a serial console and TMUX basically says "we will not support serial connections ever".

screen is way better than the alternatives for what I want. I never got minicom to work as smoothly as screen. It's just so clunky.

That seems to reason. Unless you buy all your stuff at Walmart online, you have to go in and see the people working and their working conditions.

Amazon, you only see the checkout page. It makes it much easier to ignore the problems.

I guess they're not talking about Quantum Vibe webcomic: https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Characters/QuantumVib...

One thing I didn't see mentioned here (or the article) that I discovered recently is the "Heroic" game launcher that works in Linux. It lets you start and run GOG and Epic games on Linux. GOG has some Linux stuff, but Epic is allergic to anything but Windows.

It looks like Heroic sets up your wine environment for each game.

I've only installed one game from that, but it seems to work pretty well. Very slick too.

It's a shame no one makes a control board for TV screens like you can often find for old screens like from digital photo frames.

I really think that while, interfaces are less complex these days, they're much more inscrutable, especially with the advent of flat interfaces. You can't tell what's a control or action item or not anymore.
